Weather Report..................

It was pretty much perfect cycling weather this morning. The Herts snowdrops have been up for about two weeks, the golden crocuses have been up for about a week - and now it's time for the blue/purple crocuses:



Not only that but once again it started raining in anger 20 minutes after I got home and hasn't stopped all afternoon.
My luck just has to run out soon!

Overnight rain led to a dry, grey day in Cheshire, temperature tumbling now ....

 

[edina]

Zero degrees, but the sun is just waking up. Yellow ice warning

 

[Rec]

Yellow ice......were the pubs open last night there?
Temp dropped here last night but only to about 5c, forecast shows a bit of sunshine today

 

[The laird]

Wet windy and plus2 degrees snow forecast

 

[Val54]

Strange half light in Cheshire = grey damp cold and still ..........

Noah has sailed off and it’s dry at last. Cool and breezy. Quite fancy some picturesque snow, but that seems to be reserved for everyone else. 🌬

Herts has been covered in glorious sunshine this morning, and my bike ride up onto the Chilterns yielded some lovely far-distant views.
On the return leg clouds started to build from the east and about 10 km from home I had a few spots of rain fall on me. Then the sun dried it off.
Even now, an hour or more since I returned, it's still sunny and warm behind glass.
I'm trying to sort out in my mind whether this is all a matter of luck or something to do with the righteous.
The Netherlands Meteorological Office have named the imminent weather event Storm Darcy. That might call for a snow plough on the front of the Brompton.

Colin, they also say the devil looks after his own . I must be heading for sainthood

My Granny said...

Shut the *@#£ up".

So I will.

 

[The laird]

Well it was a cold start but now it's throwing it with snow

 

[Pauljenny]

Breakfast on the terrace.
Wearing sweaters, but we're out there.
Rain due overnight.

 

[edina]

Just had our walk round the village and come back with red extremities... it's bliddy freezing. I've got some welding to do, so the heater's on in the garage

 

[Val54]

Dry, breezy and 2 degrees ...... might just spend at least another cup of coffee pondering the job list ...............................



and then write it out again neatly

 

[2cv]

Dry, breezy and 1 degree. Chance of a snow shower later, that would be nice.

The breeze here in Herts was at about 0°C at dawn but has been gradually dropping since.
We've had a few snowflakes fall so I decided to strip, clean and regrease the non-folding pedal on the Brompton. Did you know that these pedals have 28 ~1.5mm diameter balls in the bearings? And that if one is dropped on a standard garage floor it's quite difficult to find? Oh well, as Bill said in about 1603, "All's Well That Ends Well".
So I popped out in an easterly direction to fight against Darcy for a few kilometres until the next flurry hit me and then turned to be blown home.
I enjoyed that.

About 8c here, warmer than at home in Suffolk where there is snow. But still damp and gloomy.....

 

[edina]

Ffffffreezing in Devon, roll on spring

-1 degree this morning, but calm and dry. Possible snow shower later, but it said the same yesterday and there was none. Perhaps more chance of snow tonight, it would make things look prettier from the confines of the house, ️

Might not go out today!
