I'm in the Three Valleys this week and must pistes are open, thanks to altitude, the pre-Xmas snowfall and extensive snowmaking. But last night was the first since we arrived on Saturday that the temp has gone below freezing at 1850m where we're staying in Mottaret. There's extensive ice and very hard snow where the surface has softened during the day. Big piles of slush are the order of the afternoon anywhere down low.
But this isn't all that unusual for very early in the season, I've skied in rain at this time of year at this altitude, at least it's not like that!
You are not far from my work colleague who's at Les Menuires. She also says there's enough snow, but yesterday was an extremely hard day's skiing, so I expect that's the change in temp as you mention above.

…..who’d have thought, it’s positively balmy out there! Cloud & sunshine, strong wind though. Deer frightened me to death this morning, I’d already passed them, not knowing they were there & then they decided to race along the opposite side of the hedgerow to me but really close - I thought I was in the horse race in Mary Poppins 
. By the time I got the camera out they decided to turn & head over the field.
Warning, play without sound as the wind is strong..

Aww, their wee little white bottoms bounding away. That must have been quite a sight having them run alongside you.

Can you bake some nice festive food to bring with you?
I totally can. You can count on me for that.

No worries, Milly... Either February or Smarch will do the business!

Still raining in Stevenage
-
Moderate rain falling with plenty more to come from the southwest. Temperature has dropped a little from earlier. It's at 9.4c now. Not gonna snow then at those temperatures. If only it was 10c colder.

That's it, all settled for Christmas.
I wish all on here the Christmas you enjoy, whether busy, quiet or full on mental. Hoping the New Year brings improvements in all areas of your lives.
Enjoy the break, everyone.

Not a clue. Mild and wet beginning and of month with a cold bit in the middle is my guess.
2.9c and 64mm of rain

Lol, visitors have gone here too, and heating has gone back on.

20.4c in the lounge. But have had the heating on since 9am. Will be turning it off soon as we have visitors and that is enough to keep the house warm.

@LetItSnow! roll on October then.
I like your little AI predictions though. Let hope it's not so on target as it was this year.

I've got an old school friend who lives just outside Stevenage and keeps referring to it as "deliverance country". I'm not sure Deliverance was set in Hertfordshire, but oh well. He seems pleased it's cold anyway!
Weird this morning as -10.8º when I set off for Leeds only for it to be +1º 20 miles away over the Pennines as I drove past Barnard Castle. Very odd!
I'm not sure if he's referring to the scenery or the desperation and need to survive here. Possibly the latter, lol.

My small garden registered -6.7c this morning. But car temp showed -8c and stayed that way all the way to Ware. Rose to -7c on the way home and was -6c by the time I was back in Stevenage. Garden temp now -3.6c and rising rapidly, but the garden is small and the sun is now on it, so I imagine it's a lot lower than that.

Woke up to a new low inside the house today. 17.9c Heating has been on for 45 mins and we're up to 18.6c but I'm still freezing. I don't know how you guys cope with those low figures.
Outside it's -6.6c brrrrrrr

Lovely stuff. 21.5c to 22.5c is my sweet spot when relaxing in the evening.

Thank goodness it's not just me. I have often wondered this too. I can't remember what the weather was like last year let alone December 1981.
Me neither, there are a couple of posters I follow because they are local and know their onions like Bluearmy and Tim Bland, then those that are knowledgeable and don't just put imby posts like Nick Sussex, TEITS or John Holmes. A lot of posters I skip because I don't understand their very indepth and knowledgeable posts because I'm too thick to understand, (although I'm learning from some of Eagle Eye's posts) and some just posts just make me roll my eyes and I quickly skim past.
My best temp in the summer is 23c, I can tolerate up to 25c if I'm not working. Once we hit 30c I'm really struggling. Last year's 40c was horrendous, I would rather rain than temps like that because I couldn't go outside in it anyway.
