The Weather Thread # 6

Recommended Posts

It was very cold at dusk last night, but because it was cloudy the temperature rose a little and it was 10 degrees this morning it is now 12 and sunny :D I hate the dreary days like yesterday, it is so hard to feel motivated. Loads of housework to do today so the sun will keep me going, I can throw open the windows and air the house too.

I feel for those of you in Scotland the weather sounds awful.

 

We drove to a friend's house for a meal at 8pm last night and the thermomiter in the car was reading 14 degrees, and it wasstill 12 degrees at midnight. It dawned sunny and 7 degrees this morning but is now clouding over and rain is forecast

Try phoning your county's highways department (assuming that it works the same way in Scotland) our road is narrow, on a hill and has parking on both sides. It has never been gritted in the 17 years I've lived here, last winter it was so bad that an ambulance couldn't get up it (it freezes to a crust of ice) so I called up the highways dept and kicked up a stink - we then had a visit from the gritter and a grit bin at the bottom of the road.

No need for gritters here, the road had loose chippings put down a few months ago and the road sweeper has been to clear up leaves and all the chippings have been scattered all over the place! But it was 9 degrees around 6pm and now I hear rain splattering on the windows. Methinks we will have a wet walk tomorrow!

Windy , wet , although the rain seems a sleet ,and it is cold here . Temp in the "run" is a snug 12 c (out of the wind). I keep hoping the snow and cold stay away just a bit longer say till feb / march when spring beckons but i know sooner or later the temp will drop and i think it will be quite soon .It is the first time i won't get my washing out to blow on the line and that is a true sign of the weather changing .

WIR still in one piece, the chickens have decided not to come out of the Cube yet. The door from one of the greenhouses has come off and is lying on the grass, thankfully it looks like the glass is still intact.

 

We have torrential rain now and it is still quite dark, I think I will have a duvet day.

 

Candles and torches at the ready incase the power goes off. Log baskets and coal scuttles full.

 

But I am not complaining as this time last year we had snow and I hate snow. The weather can be as windy and wet as it likes as long as it doesn't snow.
