[Kent Snow]

3.4C, clear, wind from the S, 1026mb.

[get my drift]

Still white on pavements, going from grass. Temp starting to rise quickly.

Yesterday saw Bournemouth's first snow fall of the year. A stagering 1.1 mil with difts upto 3 mil.

Joking apart it looked wonderful with the snow clinging to everything. The trees looked fantastic. Whats more it was reported that Bournemouth was the coldest place in the UK and that is not something that happens on a regular basis.

[Methuselah]

9.1C, windy and lashing with rain...Back to reality.

The heavy frost that has remained for several days melted overnight. However a new lighter ground frost has appeared late on in the night. Not quite as white, but still a frost!

Yesterday, 10 January 2009

Another overcast, misty and dull morning with a moderate frost. The temperature fell overnight to –3.8c and –5.5 on the grass. At observation, overcast and frosty and feeling very cold with the SE wind increasing to force 3 producing a significant wind chill. The morning and afternoon stayed overcast and felt very cold with a top temperature of 0c up to 18:00hrs, but in the force 3-4 SE wind it felt as low as –6c. Clear skies during the evening lead to a ground frost despite the air temperature slowly rising above freezing to 1c.

A refreshing site to NOT have a hard frost this morning! There's a westerly breeze, high clouds in the sky and 3.4c.

Was lovely and white when I woke up but nearly all thawed out now.

The Atlantic is certainly back in bristol after its extended holiday and it feels lovely! Fresh air! It'll be nice to return my central heating timer to morning and evening again!

Fairly mild here and very windy.

A couple of weeks of this will be fine, before a return to cold and hopefully snow next time!

Currently a barmy 10.3c here in Moreton. There's been no rain so far but looking at the radar it looks like there will be some soon. Scotland looks like its taking a battering

Highest wind gust recorded today so far is 23.5mph but my garden is quite sheltered so probably more than that. Certainly looks stronger!

Pressure currently rising slowly at 1011.3hpa.
