Christian Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 Freezing this morning and -4. Beautiful bright blue sky now. Still cold, but gardening weather imho Off to clean out the hens.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 Heavy frost this morning, and a bit chilly although sunny. However, open the front door and it's lovely and warm! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groovychook Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 Cold and frosty last night when we went to bed- woke up to snow again It's sunny and thawing again now- lovely and mild at the moment too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 Very icy here. Great sheet of it on the path outside the back door. A lovely bright sunny day though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 I've told hubby to slow down & take his time. Our road is lethal, as are the garden path & decking. I don't want any injuries before we go on our hols. Looking at the sky I'd say we are going to get a load of snow very soon. Brrrrr Emma.x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Speckled Hen Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 Another glorious clear sunny day. Am sunning myself while I read the paper in the conservatory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 Actually a nice day here now, but the clouds are gathering. Perfect timing for when I drive tonight - as we go the pub for a bit of grub. Emma.x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 We had about 15 minutes of big snow flake flurries this afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groovychook Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 The snow soon thawed yesterday and it was beautiful in the afternoon- lots of lovely sunshine. I even sat out and read a book for a while! It's crunchy underfoot this morning but only a light frost... sun is out but there are rain clouds hovering...

Old Speckled Hen Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 Snow on the ground in the air and in the sky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 Black ice this morning. Rather deceiving - puddles on the top and slippery underneath. Very windy and wet this morning, little bit of sleet but we had sunshine and cloud this afternoon. All gloomy and wet again now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackrocksrock Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 We are rather cold today as it was minus 12.4 outside here and along the road 18 miles it was minus 22 It is freezing and ice inside the windows no matter what we do as its so bad - the sun is shinin off the snow and its really bright and at least underfoot is better as its drying out. There are cars which wont start and diesel which is freezing in vehicles too - not the best day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 Poor you. We have had a few sunny days and have got some gardening done too. Today however dawned with snow showers and it is now dull damp cols and grey. I am glad i don't live in Scotland though, at least we have the first hint of spring.

Can see a few snowdrops out along the border round the edge of the house but the rest are buried under snow keeping warm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 We've had various sorts of cold here over the weekend, some with sun, some with snow. The snow hasn't stuck though. I am heartily sick of cold and wet TBH! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 Bitter, bitter wind, snow, sleet, but no sunshine. Apparently it's colder here, and we have more snow, than in Vancouver! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 One of my Canadian cousins (now in Faversham) used to live in Vancouver. He said it was a much milder climate there, although more often than not it rains. When the sun is out everyone drops what they are doing and head for the beach. When we went there (yep it rained) we had one sunny day and sure enough a crowd had gathered on the beach and all sorts of games were being played - volleyball being one of them. Certainly seemed much more laid back than the hustle and bustle of Toronto (where his sister lives - and boy was it hot there). Toronto has seen more snow this year too. Where can we live that has nice winters and nice summers, because I'm also fed up with this now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Speckled Hen Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 Where can we live that has nice winters and nice summers, because I'm also fed up with this now. I'd like to live near Granada in Spain or somewhere by the Italian Lakes. Sigh................ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 Hmmm - euro not so hot at the moment. Bermuda looks nice. Then hop to somewhere else during the hurricane season - like New Zealand. I wonder what Tasmania's like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Speckled Hen Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 The most beautiful pink/orange/red layered sunrise over the hills. Bloomin cold at -4. Rain forecast later and we have been promised 4inches of snow tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
