Charlottechicken Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 It was 27 degrees in the office today, we were all melting! It was a bit of a shock to come out again. It is now zero outside and it was minus 8 this morning, had to stop twice on the way to work to clear the windscreen! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hillfamily Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 I can't believe snow is on its way either - there has not been a cloud in the sky here all day today. Darn cold though I must dig out a couple of old rugs to through over the Eglus tonight,to keep the girls extra snug Knew there was a reason i didn't throw out the really really really old rugs in the shed - will tuck it round the eglu later. I've just popped the girls 'hot water bottle' in the eglu for an hour just to warm things up (not a real HW bottle but a microwave pet heat pad - used it last winter just to take the chill off. Peck proof and wipe clean ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karen & co. Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 I can't believe snow is on its way either - there has not been a cloud in the sky here all day today. Darn cold though I must dig out a couple of old rugs to through over the Eglus tonight,to keep the girls extra snug does this mean that all my poor little daffodils who have just poked their little heads out of their stems are now going to get their tiny little b******s frozen off? Phil I'm sure I read somewhere that daffs can go into suspended animation if it freezes while they are sprouting, then continue to grow again when it warms up, how clever is that karen x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linda Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 Oh very clever! We still don't want their poor little blossoms to be frozen off, do we?! This weather must be so confusing for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 Looking at the forecast, I'm wondering if Andrew may have been better staying at home if he wanted snow, rather than trekking off to Derbyshire? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One Man Banned Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 no no no Lesley! Checked Metchecker and we're more likely to get snow from 0900-1800 tomorrow here than only 1800 at home Can't wait - mind you it's billy cold out there you know!!

Lesley Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 The last one I saw showed snow coming through Glos at about 1am and reaching us not long after Hope you get the snow some time Andrew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
