    Amazing local differences there, am about 2 miles from you and Temp is 2.2c - Are you high up ?

    I'm not no, 41m asl, I have a vantage vue 2m over grass, 70ft from my house and at least 120ft from any roads, I've often been suspicious of my low readings, I had one of -4.9c (well actually sustained low temps) on the 20th of November last year with that cold snap, but other stations reported similar low figures, under -4c. I currently have another 2 stations near me reporting minus figures

    A year ago I also checked my low readings with another 2 digital stations, they were all within .1c of each other

    Very odd!

    edit: temps have been up and down tonight, hit -1.1c earlier, but it's less manic now, maybe there's somewhere nearby drying their hair in the garden :pardon:

    Not quite sure if the feature is a hurricane quite yet, something I heard from other threads and sources, I've heard it has hurricane speed sustained winds, but not sure of the classification of the storm! I know it was ex-tropical or non tropical, it's still a very interesting feature to establish and direct close to our shores at a critical time for snow lovers! 

    EDIT: Whatever it was (could someone clarify? I'd like to learn a little on this subject) Alex is now a hurricane.

    3.1c here now, still very crisp outside with a frost still in the shade, not expecting anything higher than 4c or so today, so for this area it'd be the coldest day so far of the year, GFS shows a max of 3.8 - 4.3c, going on my 0.7c minima this morning, If today were to reach 4.1c we'd have a daily mean of 2.4, beating yesterdays 2.9c and 1st Jan's 3.9c, showing it has got a lot colder! :)

    Lovely clear sky, can't see the maxima getting too great today!

    Thought there maybe a warning out for the wind later,looking like gusting to around 55mph in our part of world and maybe 70mph over north norfolk this eve

    That's going to be hellish then! Off to college in Grays today near the thames and it's always blowing a gale. Looking at wind chill it's going to feel -5c later this evening on the walk home :cold-emoji:
