South West and Central Southern England Regional Weather Discussion

Frost still on the ground in the shade of the north facing front garden, shows how fast ground temps can drop off even after such a mild autumn

[festivalking]

Peaked here at 6.9c a degree warmer than predicted. Lets see what the night brings!

[matt111]

Nice and sunny all day, makes a huge difference to how it feels inside. Reached 6.9°C but definitely on the slide since the sun went round. Currently 4.5°C

Moons up

First frost of the winter here last night. Normally we get our first frost some time in mid November.

Everything was well thawed by mid-morning. Peak temp today seems to have tickled 6 degrees but 5 degrees for most of the day. The cloud cover spoiled the day a bit, but still nice nonetheless.

Feeling cold in Kingsbridge right now, gonna be a cold night if it stays clear all night

[Mapantz]

Grass temp already down to -1.6°C 

[Rich_Clements]

Its going to be a glittery start tomorrow.

We can see Mars perfectly here, even quite a pinky red hue to it! Frosting up quickly too.

Cold Spell Objective 1 complete: a frost - currently -2.0c - hopefully it will still be there by first light.

Took until midnight to reach -2.0C. It's already -2.0C this evening after a high of just over 4C.

For some reason it's only reached -2.3C, almost three hours later under clear skies. Go figure.

[Mapantz]

Temp has taken over 3 hours just to drop 2°C.

Stuck at -1.2°C.

Hey everyone! How are we all? Just signed in for the first time this year.. took me a while to figure out how to post.. had to “join” the group.. what’s that about?! Can’t believe I’ve been a member for 14 years

How’s everyone doing? Feeling Christmassy yet? Excited for the cold?

Evening all, stunning sunset tonight. Stopped on the way home from work to take a few pics (quality not great using a phone) This is on top of the Mendips, from here on a clear day you can see across the levels and the Severn, to Wales on the other side. Glastonbury Tor looked stunning silhouetted against the red sky, bit too far away to get a good pic with my phone, really must remember to keep a camera in the car.
