Some brilliant walking conditions this morning apart from the sheer depth of snow, almost a foot fell here last night and not a Met O warning in site. made for some good photographs though, altho

Heaviest single fall of snow for several years here and the heaviest in April since 1981.

This winter is reminding a bit of winter 2016/17 alternating between mild/average- chilly/ faux cold weather with no ‘real’ cold away from Day 10 charts - it’s better than mild mush and weeks of Atlantic weather like 13/14 & 15/16 winters but nothing to get excited about either last winter although no big freeze had lots more wintry interest.
 

Yet to see a decent few days of frost this winter so far, bulbs are coming up and even saw a bee buzzing around  in the garden this morning! Here’s hoping for a February freeze up for a proper taste of winter even if it’s just for a week or so

A similar day to yesterday.. showery and chilly. However, much less of a cold wind so it felt more temperate. The birds were in full song though oddly or so it seemed making it feel more like end of Feb than early - mid Jan. The week ahead looks fairly Clement for January some rain or showers at times also some dry often overcast conditions but hopefully some clearer air as well to provide sunshine and frost at night. Nothing very interesting but I guess good as it will be very little inconvenience. After Storm Arwen I'd say first half of winter 21-22 best described as very benign... very much akin to winter 16-17 which was a snooze fest.

Cooler today, 6-7ºC, on/off rain interjected with some nice clear skies & sunshine too...

 

Looks like temps will be dropping towards the end of the week though...

Looking seasonal - frost and fog likely . If we can't get anymore snow then that is next best thing for me better than those ridiculous mild temps the other week.

Just a quick heads up. Early next week we'll be moving this thread over to our new regional groups system. Over there, there'll be more space to grow, options for multiple threads, a gallery, member map etc. 

The Scottish thread was our guinea pig, moving over a while back, so you can get a feel for how it will look here:

No sign of winter here anymore - the snow drift we had has completely melted away. Not weather related this but a quick vid from me at the cat and fiddle on Friday. Wonder if anyone recognises the piece.

 

First I was afraid, I was petrified, when I was on the A515 in a slide. I should have chose a different route and took my walking boots but I survived but I survived....

Excellent, I like a bit of art. I appreciate what others can do where I cant.

Did visit the National Art Gallery at Trafalgar Square a few years ago. Some magnificent paintings there.

From what Chris F was suggesting on the Country File forecast for the week ahead, we shall be having more conversation about tea / supper and Van Gogh exhibitions than about the weather!

PS as an ex-southern softie, I'm a supper person rather than tea and put the milk in my cup of tea before adding boiling water.

I tried the 'Southern' way and found it to restrict the brewing process. Mine is boiling water onto teabag for 3 minutes. Squeeze teabag on inside of cup as its time to remove. Put milk in and relax.

PS Just looked at the forecast for SK13 and its about as non descript this week as ive seen in ages. Drizzle, cloudy chilly.... cant wait.

I busy extra strong tea bags pour boiling water, stir, leave for few minutes always get a strong cuppa… milk after water and no sugar… 

getting used to nondescript weather… Christmas week weather was pretty dire… as were the weeks beforehand

Oh no, there should be a law against making a brew this way.

Conversations about art, cups of tea... oh dear the weather mustn't be up to much at present... 

The MOD thread keeps saying there's something brewing, I think its the art of making a cuppa until the weather has made its mind up.

Night All.

It might not be a mega exciting week coming up weather wise, but at least some sunshine is likely at times from tomorrow onwards and things becoming slowly colder with chance of overnight frost. Much better outlook than the constant slate grey skies we endured during December with temps stuck at 5/6C round the clock and the ridiculously balmy temperatures between Christmas and New Year.
