Gusts so strong my weather station is giving a false rain reading as it is shaking!! -
So are models ever "right or wrong"? The models just try to predict the most likely way that the weather will develop (as that is not decided in advance!) so you could have a model that does not do very well at predicting the most likely scenario but looks like they got it "right" because the most likely scenario did not happen. Just a morning thought.

Hi all I should be on this list from years ago? Chance of snow in the frozen north on Sunday? John

OK so answering my own questions here just in case someone else gets stuck on this. I contacted Sainlogic and they replied with some instructions to adjust relative and absolute pressure (which were not in the manual I had) and it works. Basically you press set and alarm for 5 secs to take you to calibration screen. Details attached. Hope that helps someone. It's a good little mid-priced weather station and with this adjustment I'm not happy.

Still -5 at 11am. That's pretty unusual! Proper ice day! I know some have missed out but this has been the best winter here for quite a while for snow. Snowed Christmas Eve and lasted ages and then approx. 17cm here and cold enough not to melt even in the sun. 3 more very cold days to follow before the thaw. -

Narnia here until at least Sunday -
Yes -1 degrees here and constant light snow - white but not amounting to anything. Interestingly blowing down the road like dust. Bed-time - see what tomorrow brings. There is a phrase "too cold for snow" which of course is rubbish...but in UK it can have an element of truth to it as our cold air is usually dry?
