[Northernlights]

Great sunny, frosty ,dry,( no mud) start to the day -2c and no wind. A great improvement on the previous 24 hrs when it was very wet and the mud on the farm was as bad as ever. Two observations on how the continuing cold is impacting on nature, I flushed a woodcock feeding beside the farm steading at 10.00am yesterday normally a dusk and dawn feeder at the edge of woods and very shy and a huge flock of pigeons numbering in the region of 4000 descended on about 60 acres of stubbles behind the farmhouse probably including some visitors from Scandnavia, this also applies to the woodcock population.

[Terminal Moraine]

Sunny and almost cloudless, just a few fragments of stratocumulus on the north eastern horizon.

Most of the night was cloudy with light rain showers and a slow thaw which has reduced the snow cover to about 30% this morning, so no 5th day with snow lying.

Temp' currently 2.6c after a min' of 1.6c.

Thankfully the BBC have on their web site

----------------

Consequently, frost and windchill will only be a problem for the first half of the week

I got my Gazbo up for tonights party and I thought it was going to be a cold night

-8c in some places isn't it ?

Just shows you

[dice45]

can frost melt at -3c if its sunny? i think the max will be around 1.5c.

[Andy Bown]

A stunning, calm, clear and sunny morning with frost lingering in the shade.

Temperature is 2c after a minimum of 0c.

Slight air frost recorded here this morning, this now being the 9th consecutive air frost, the longest run with out a break since I began keeping records in 2005.

Now that's a telling statistic Paul, I think it should be PMd to every forum user to show what an excellent (and very different to recent years) start to winter this has been !

Light showers throughout yesterday evening and all night. Snow at first, then sleet, now rain.

A lot of snow still. 5th consecutive day with cover, 9th since end of Nov. I'm not sure if you can call it snow really, there's about 4/5cm of solid ice on the lawn.
