It went down to 0.7C last night here.The plant trays all went into the shed and conservatory They are getting a bit leggy they need to go into the ground.These cold nights keep turning up.It needs to stop raining a bit too.The ground needs to dry out and warm up. 0 C forcast for tonight. Will it be the last one ? I wouldn't bet on it.

I have not been getting much from Meteor2-3 recently.I got a good scan from the 11.29 pass this morning.

A light frost again this morning Temp got down to 1.5C.Mrs Ponti was prepaired for it .Plants were under cover early. A Meteor 2.3 scan from 10.45 pass.

A nice one from Meteor 2-3 10.45 pass this morning.

I got an image from Meteor 2-3 this morning the first for a while.

A light frost this morning.Mrs Ponti is not happy.The low forecast was 4 Deg it went down to 1.4.She normally moves her plants and seedlings from the greenhouse to the shed when the forecast is low.Last night she did not.

9.35 Meteor-M2 3 pass and 9.20 NOAA19 pass.

I have just about mastered Satdump.Okay getting there.Owing to the position of my antenna this is the best that I can do.NOAA 19 . 19.15.

Mark Pentler Most odd.2 hours ago a post on Sats uk is about running satdump.If I can get the last three brain neurons that I possess firing at the same time I may have a go at it.

My main interest is satellite scanning.Wxsat scanning is one of the projects on the satellite forum that I am a member of.Mrs Ponti and I are also keen weather watchers.My weather station is a Technoline 2816.MY site is on WOW RC Barnsley. Below is the 9.35 pm NOAA 18 scan

Just spotted this post I often scan NOAA 15,18 and 19.The only equipment required is a computer WXSAT and SDr Sharp software and an antenna.I made a Quadrifilla antenna with cunifer brake pipe.NOAA 15 has problems now. Two scans today NOAA 18 and 19. . The red cross is my location.

It has been a bit damp here today.15.7 mm of rain so far, 72.2 mm for the month

A bit damp here today.18.6 mm rain already.I have been waiting for some steady rain for awhile to check my rain guage.I think that it is reading a bit low.

Today has been a nice day plenty of sunshine.not too hot for a couple of old fogies.The forecast was cloudy bright with showers.We seem to get different weather than what is forecast at the ryhill station six miles away
