Luvachicken Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 I'm glad someone has seen some sunshine. Just grey and more grey here. But I did hear the Robin and a Blackbird singing when I went to shut my girls in.............Spring IS coming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite nice considering all the rain we've had . Hoping tomorrow is dry again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted January 7, 2013 Author Share Posted January 7, 2013 Sunday was mild but quite foggy, met some friends for a lurcher walk on Berrow Beach near Weston super Mare, nice day but would have been better with sunshine. Dark, dreary and damp this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Groovychook Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 We had one lovely sunny day over the weekend but it's mainly been dull with the odd bit of drizzle. There were patches of blue sky this morning but it's clouded over now. Feels cooler too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saronne Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Still dull and mild in Leicestershire. Does anyone know if we're due any snow in the foreseeable future? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted January 7, 2013 Author Share Posted January 7, 2013 A neighbour told me t'other day that we're due snow at the end of January, as we've not had any yet, it's as good a bet as any. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 The Countryfile weather forecast was hinting at snow by the end of next week, and much colder weather by the end of this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted January 8, 2013 Author Share Posted January 8, 2013 The paper this morning is predicting a cold snap towards the end of the week, having said that, it's 11deg here now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Groovychook Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 11 degrees, grey and drizzly. Fed up of this repetitive weather- I'm looking forward to a change of season, be it winter or spring! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted January 9, 2013 Author Share Posted January 9, 2013 The chill has started.... the temp dropped 3deg in an hour this morning, but it's lovely and sunny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groovychook Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 It's murky again here. Quite misty first thing and although it's not raining, it feels like it is as there's still a lot of moisture in the air. Cooler today at 8 degrees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chickencam Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 We took ED back to uni this evening and the fog on the M5 was awful especially for about 5 miles on the way back when I was driving We were both peering into the gloom hoping that we were in the right lane and we weren't going to hit anything, pretty scary It is below freezing too, the temperature dropped very suddenly after dark.

The Dogmother Posted January 10, 2013 Author Share Posted January 10, 2013 We had freezing fog as well Liz, it was thick enough when I left work, but when I went to collect Rosie from lifeguard training, the fog had frozen on the windscreen and visibility was very poor, even in the town centre. Warmer this morning at 1.2deg when I got up, it's now 3.3deg but grey and dismal. I see in the papers that we're due for a very cold snap starting on Sunday and lasting for 3 weeks.

Groovychook Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 We have a bit of weak sunshine amongst the mist this morning and it's colder at 4 deg. Another band of rain is due during today- just started drizzling actually, but colder stuff forecast to follow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 The fog was thick at home when I went to bed last night, but it had cleared by this morning and the temperature had risen to 3 degrees. It is dull and grey this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lillybettybabs Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 (edited) I have bought a massive piece of sheeting from tarpaflex to cover the kennel front and chicken run in preparation for the cold snap.Dylan and Dawn were playing tunnel mazes in it and sit on the spangle as i was unfolding and cutting. It was the size of my garden but it was in the sale (have lots left) but hopefully no snow drifts if it arrives!
