Arctic day up temps mostly around 5-7C but very cold northerly biting. In the few sunny intervals felt nice enough out of the wind. Managed first cut of grass albeit in thick coat and hat. Quite happen with hitter. Old in the winter but this constant cold is getting tad wearing. Was going to say at least it’s dry but I hear rain now on the roof window…

Bit slow on updates, yesterday several wintry showers mostly of fine snow, just 100 foot lower in bottom field just rain. This morning started with a dusting of snow much to the annoyance of the ducks Hansel & Gretel, the ducks in first photo. Snow started again 10ish before quickly turning to sleet then sleety rain before somewhat surprisingly rapidly turning to heavy large flaked snow this afternoon. IMG_1477.MOV

Eleven years ago today when I still lived at Ballaleigh between Peel and Kirk Michael on the west of the Isle of Man we had an epic blizzard resulting in the scenes below. That is a full size motor home below my hound. The last snow drift on Sartfell which is only 1600 odd feet high lasted for 89 days.

After frozen ice day, showers pushing in from the east this evening, couple hefty ones giving inch of fresh snow in quick order, snow beginning to drift now in stiff increasingly bitter winds.. The road near Lairg this evening and earlier from our back field looking Nw towards Ben Hee. Stunningly clear air felt like you could lean out and touch the mountains.
