It's a reasonable start to the day here, dry with partial cloud cover, 2.5C. Hopefully a chance to dry out a bit today after a miserable few days. At least the drier weather has been timed well for the weekend.

As already said, it’s nice to have a dry and hopefully sunny day coincide with the weekend and perfect timing for our pre planned look down into Manchester for a meal and a few drinks.

whatever you are up to, enjoy

Well that was the forecast when I went to bed. On walking up I see this from the met

I don't see much support from other automated forecasts, hope it's wrong.

Good morning.  3°C at 6am couldn't see any signs of frost here.  It felt good to be out shopping for myself and mum again, not done it for a while, my sister has taken over the task, I'll do it for a couple more weeks or so while I'm feeling well, a month's worth of radiotherapy starts on the 21st.  A lovely sunrise when I came out of Tesco earlier, off for a little walk with my daughter and her dogs later, quite pleasant out.

Wasn't going to log in this morning until I read this, I know we've had a little chat before but I would just just like to wish you all the best for when you start your treatment.

Hope you have a great weekend with your family Rush, great weather for getting out and about.

A very fine Saturday out there. Bright with bursts of sunshine, little wind, and mild with temp nudging 10 degrees, indeed quite early spring like.

I remember the 13th Feb last year being very springlike, sunny, blue skies and comfortable to sit out. Indeed both last Sat and now this Sat were ok to sit out in.

Im not lulling myself into spring mode though, winter has a habit of showing its face in late Feb and into March following mild winters in the main..

[severe snowstorm]

Yes, it's turned out to be a nice Saturday, bright with patchy cloud cover.

Welcome relief from all the rain over the past couple of days. Temps around average if not a shade above, reached 9.1C.

 Rush2019 All my Spanish warm wishes to help you through this hard time.. believe me amigo after the storm always the sun comes out!!

Here are some pictures of the high route between Skipton and Colne following Thursday snow event. My farmer friend who farms above Grassington still reports plenty of snow left today around 1000 feet.

Old “Weather Station” salvaged from my parents property. I must’ve tapped this thousands of times from the early seventies. 

Just look at that technology

 Rush2019 Virtual hugs to you Rush. As you know my mum has cancer and she's due to start treatment soon, it got delayed unfortunately due to her picking up flu and then a chest infection but she's slowly recovering from them now. She's spent time in Christies because of all that trying to get better first and not been out for a few weeks. Really worrying time, just got to keep hoping for the best outcome that's all we can do with anyone going through cancer and their friends and family who love them.

[EastofWigan]

A rare dry day here. Only nice local walk packed. Every conversation with other dog owners started “isn’t it so nice to be out”

If we can’t have snow bring on some more days like this  

Thinking of those on this thread with health issues, personal or supporting people. Hoping for positive outcomes x
