  1. Luke 2: 8 - 20:

     

    8  And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.
    9  And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid.
    10  And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.
    11  For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.
    12  And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.
    13  And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,
    14  Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.
    15  And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away from them into heaven, the shepherds said one to another, Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us.
    16  And they came with haste, and found Mary, and Joseph, and the babe lying in a manger.
    17  And when they had seen it, they made known abroad the saying which was told them concerning this child.
    18  And all they that heard it wondered at those things which were told them by the shepherds.
    19  But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart.
    20  And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, as it was told unto them.

     

    A very happy Christmas to all at home on The Emerald Isle.

  3. There was me thinking we had a 'stay of execution' as the low has developed another centre on the 12z and is further west, taking the winds further south? Looking at those wind charts that Lorenzo has just put up, I think  I am up the Clyde on a banana boat!

     

     

    Make sure that banana boat makes port before noon tomorrow Blitzen! Posted Image

  4. I missed the Snow/Sleet was @ the Cinema watching Frozen Posted Image There wasn't Snow lying in City Centre but was there was a bit of Snow at home, it's amazing how that little bit of altitude makes the difference. Temp 2.1 DP -0.3

     

    Once again Ally your DP significantly depressed relative to mine in the Glen Almond (2.6C/1.5C).

  6. This is a report from someone living on the outskirts of Jerusalem re. the weekend's Winter storm:

     

    "It is now official: where I've been living is the one place in Israel where we received the most snowfall.

    Today, we were driving for the first time in a week; we just sat speechless in the car. The mountain we live on outside Jerusalem looks like a disaster area, like a tornado has hit, and not a blizzard. There are broken trees everywhere, roads are destroyed, I have not seen anything like this before.

    When we got to the supermarket to do some shopping, it was closed due to extensive damage from all of the snow, so we had to go home without the items we needed. This included a critical item: food.

    It will take some time to clean up all the mess, following what is being termed as the worst storm in 150 years inside Israel. However, the actual amount of snow we received was more than double of what fell inside Jerusalem."

  7. I can confirm from the depths of the Borders that we have lovely blue skies and a cool breeze. I'm not suggesting that the breeze is wearing shades and a leather jacket.

     

     

    The big picture from the models again today is staying unsettled with wind, rain and snow at times. The specifics are unclear so there's almost no point in posting charts, although we could do with some slightly colder air in the mix. There's certainly nowt wrong with the weather pattern, it fits right into my hopes for the winter which I posted a few weeks ago. Unsettled December and then colder January & February. Fingers crossed the rest of my hopecasting comes off as wished for Posted Image

     

    As for today, there's a cracking crop of showers out west, it's looking good the further north and west you are.

     

    Edit: @ edodfc I'm glad to hear you're making sure the kids get spoilt, my ex won't let me see mine over Xmas. Make the most of it Posted Image

     

     

    I think if you and I lived in Fluffybottomshire in the far SE of England we'd be quite disappointed too. I feel for them, briefly Posted Image

     

    Well at least you aren't letting life depress you Catch - you're a hoot!
