Pretty much a 'nothing' day out there today. Dull and overcast, no wind, temperature 6C.
Bright and sunny here. IIRC last Jan was quite mild then when we go into February, it went freezing.
was bright and sunny here too but its clouding and rain is close. got some storms coming i think

Lashing down (again) this morning with strong, blustery winds. Been having quite a battering with the wind the past few days (and it's not an excess of Christmas pudding :eyebrows:) with gusts of over 70 mph. There's not much between our house and the deep blue so the wind features very prominently here. This afternoon has turned out pleasant though with the sun making a welcome appearance. Temp. around 10c.

Very windy here (and probably eveywhere else in UK). Not too nippy at 8C and bright.
supposed to be breezy here but not so far.. 4c and wet

Very stormy in the night. Woken around 3.40am by the roof tiles clattering and howling wind. Gotta say I do not like it one bit. Reported gusts of over 80mph on Portland. Brighter now with the occasional blustery shower. May be able to do our afternoon walk. :)
What the deuce? It could be horizontal snow out there folks.
What did Eric Idle sing?
sun is out here. the winds have still not arrived
No baked beans with breakfast Grant?

This is for Caledon, Ontario (near Toronto), where we live. Polar vortex is happening again. Last one was New Year's Eve, when it went down to -25C. This time we're expecting temps down to -30C for Friday night, then with wind chill could get down to -40C or lower. Aren't you happy now to be living in the balmy UK? :)
Enjoy the warm weather there!
Svend
Coldest I remember here was -25c. It was bone chilling
I used to work in minus 28. That was a bit nippy. Minus 40 must be physically painful on any exposed skin.
I honestly didn't think it got that cold in the UK... -25 and -28...quite respectable. Martin, at -40 wind chill the frostbite risk is pretty high... 30 seconds to 2 minutes maybe, for exposed skin.
I wonder if vacuum tubes can be used as glove warmers? Perfect shape :D

Coldest I've worked in outside was -10C and that was in West London overseeing snow clearing operations during the eighties. It was a few degrees colder in rural areas

It doesn't, I was working in a temperature controlled warehouse. :) I think minus 11 is the worst we have had where I live, since I have lived here anyway. You've got the wind chill on top too.
Scotland technically is on similar latitude to Canada If we lose the warm air and water streams it can get very cold up here. That was zn exceptional year. Maybe 95/96 or 96/97

Edinburgh is, surprisingly, much farther north than Toronto -- 55 deg. N, vs. 43 deg. The good 'ole Gulf Stream really does wonders, eh? Someone once told me about palm trees growing in Ireland, to which I called BS but I may have to withdraw that as it may actually be true.
there are a number of palm trees that are fairly hardy, some down to -20c. so yup.. there are a few places in uk that have them.
A bit of sleet now as temps have dipped to near 0. To be like this for next day or do then just cold

Well, I guess my friend will make me eat crow on this one :( Will have to buy him a pint :cool: Hard to picture a palm tree surviving a -20C deep freeze. Amazing.

I have a potted palm outside. That and the small fir are the only plants that haven't wilted and died back this winter. Mind you the strawberries are sprouting new leaves.

It could be worse I guess. It was sunny but only 3C earlier and the strong breeze made it feel much colder.
However, in America they have a wicked -18C in the east: https://www.standard.co.uk/news/world/us-weather-latest-around-100-million-people-hit-by-deep-freeze-as-dozens-are-rushed-to-hospital-a3733801.html

failed to get above 0 today but sunny
A cold but absolutely stunning day here in Wrexham, sunny and unmarked blue skies throughout! Just back from a nice 6-mile walk, and ready for my lunch! :cool:

I keep thinking the climate in The Azores was made for me. Averages between 17C and 24C for the year. Not too hot and not too cold. They get a bit of wind and rain, but that wouldn't bother me. Nice low cost of living too.

Seems a bit less chilly than yesterday and the day before. Just the usual January gloom. At least it's not raining (yet).
I made the mistake of turning the heating off on Sunday night. The house was like a fridge Monday morning and took a couple of hours to warm up a bit.

Very dark and gloomy, very cold and damp. Not nice at all.
still at 0c and not going to improve. sunny again but an icy breeze off the steppe

It's very windy here and feeling extremely cold, damp and dismal. Gotta say it's lousy weather. :(
Grey with a hint of greyness, the forecast is further greyness
Yup, and the perfect day for hibernating and watching a movie or two! The gloom lends itself to optimum viewing conditions... Got some awesome 4k HDR Blu-Rays to watch, so that's how Snapper and I will be spending our day, then making a curry for later! :cool:

We are afflicted with a 'greyout' here also.
5C, but feels colder 'cos it's damp. I'll have to go out, I need some tile cement and the dog will want his walk.
Trying to think of something interesting to pick up for dinner, but my imagination is letting me down. :)
1c at moment. some nasty cloud in distance too
prestonchipfryer
09-01-2018, 14:31
Milder today and just a gentle breeze. Cloudy though and generally dismal. Around 10c. :)
walpurgis
10-01-2018, 14:25
Almost a hint of spring approaching today. Nudging 10C, bright and sunny with just a few clouds about.
Heading for 38C today, a bit warm.
Steve - No fair! You shouldn't be allowed to taunt us like that :). Last week (and the one before that) we went skiing at -15C with wind chills of -30. On the nights when it got down to -25 or -30 (windy or not) we stayed home, poured a whiskey and watched a movie. Last night we went out again and it was +6C and drizzling. Quite the swing in temps. We preferred the latter by far :)
Lol...Taunt? You can keep yer 38C, which I'd die in (can't stand severe heat), and I'll take your +6C, or oven -15C, any day!!
Currently 2C here in Wrexham, dark and foggy, which with the wood burner still warm from last night, and the room nice and toasty, suits me just fine :)

Sick of this day after day of damp, cold, thick clouds and dismal. Worse to come next week when the wind comes from the North.
Brightened up here now nicely, with sun coming through the clouds, and temperature is now a balmy 6°C! :D
Marco.
Flash freeze warning for here today. +5C and raining right now...north wind and cold front coming, temps crashing to -15C tonight. All the wet roads and driveways will be like skating rinks.
I was going to attend a fatbike demo day tomorrow at our local trail centre, but I think I'll take a pass. Snow will have turned to ice. No fun to be had there....
Canadian winters...gotta love 'em!
Bit miserable here but it is mild for January. Can't fault it really.
What a mess here. It rained all morning, then that turned into freezing rain as the thermometer plunged, then ice pellets, and now it's a howling blizzard. Can barely see the neighbour's house across the street. Temp dropped from +5 this morning to -10 by mid-afternoon, and still falling. Roads are ice rinks covered in snow. Thank god for four-wheel-drive.
And I'm expected to grill a salmon on the Weber outside, which normally wouldn't stop me except I'm pretty sure the howling wind would blow the flames out. I think we'll order in... :)
walpurgis
14-01-2018, 11:59
I do wish the temperatures would buck up a bit. There's stuff I want to be doing outside and I just don't want to work in a sub 10C environment. Low teens will do. Guess I'll have to wait a month.
hifi_dave
14-01-2018, 12:07
It's not too cold here but I am sick and tired of the thick blanket of cloud which we have had for a week now. I'm beginning to forget what blue skies and Sun look like..:(
It's January, guys, and we're in the depths of WINTER, so what do you really expect - spring weather? :doh:;)
Marco.
prestonchipfryer
14-01-2018, 13:01
Well the Sun has made an appearance here now and it's good to get rid of the clouds. It's around 6c at the moment with hardly any sign of air movement. All-in-all okay. :)
hifi_dave
14-01-2018, 13:02
I don't mind it cold, if it's sunny and bright. What depresses me is day after day of thick black cloud.
On the plus side, we have Snowdrops showing off, loads of Hellebores and now some Crocuses (Croci ?) about to open.
prestonchipfryer
14-01-2018, 13:10
It's always the wind making it feel colder here which is why, here anyway without the wind today, it feels (just about) acceptable for the middle of Winter.
Cloudy but dry here. Tomorrow's forecast: Heavy cloud, rain, 50% chance of sleet showers.

Wind, rain and gloom here. Not too cold at 9C though.

January sucks. So does February but at least it is still light when you finish work. If you finish at 5 o'clock, that is.
hifi_dave
15-01-2018, 11:34
To the thick blanket of cloud we have had for over a week, we now have rain and wind, which is making it feel colder still. Good job I'm running a Class-A amp today..:)
On the plus side, the days are noticeably longer, still being a bit light at 5 o/c, probably later if the clouds blew away.

15-01-2018, 11:37
Lashing down overnight and now blustery winds and heavy showers. Around 10c but wind making it feel cold. Roll on the warmer weather and stick the winter. :)
Pissing down here.
Not really weather related but they are building a housing estate opposite me and have been good enough to send me the details of the temporary traffic lights they are proposing for the junction at the end of my street. You know how long it takes when there is just a 2 way temporary light? Tailbacks for miles. This is a 5 way. FFS.
had to get up to turn heating up:doh: been cold, wet and windy but sun out at moment. snow and bitter winds for next few days... Scotland at its best

mixture of sun then snow flurries. a lot of snow again overnight. must be 6 inches or so and its not getting better according to forecast. had to cancel babysitting as i cant get out. At least Ive got me tunes and broadband etc..heating and lighting so will be fine. worse things happen at sea:D

How much snow are we talking about? Sounds like you guys got dumped on. Rare event, is it?
How much snow are we talking about? Sounds like you guys got dumped on. Rare event, is it?
its mostly because im disabled and rely on sticks etc to move about. you just cant use them in these conditions. still its worst we have had in several years.
i expected it as i believe in bad winter snow comes in bands of about 7 years here
Ah, I see. Sorry to hear that Grant. Thanks for letting me know. Hope you're coping OK in this bad weather spell, and getting help when you need it. You should suggest to the chemist that they put snow tires on their delivery van, if they don't already have them. Essential service, that is.
All the best,

Woke up to a nice white dusting of snow - yay! So outside looks all nice and wintry. Snow still falling a little now, although turning more to sleet. Log fire burning nicely, so the house is all toasty and warm, as we look out the window at the lovely white winter landscape :)
Marco [refuses to moan about 'bad weather' in January] ;)
The whole point of January, and February (and to a lesser extent, March) is to moan about the weather. Otherwise why have them? We could do Xmas then skip straight on to Spring.
I've just been outside and won't be making that mistake again. Sleet; big, thick gobs of the stuff, coming in horizontally on a freezing wind. Can barely type, my hands are so cold.

Well the snow turned back to rain and the dog didn't get a walk. He hates rain and I'm not keen on getting soggy. It's still coming down.
stopped here too. no rain tho. the gritted paths round my house done last night are holding up, but car is well covered again.
Just back from being out for Sunday lunch (which, btw, was superb) and it's been raining fairly heavily, so the snow's all melted... :(
Pretty grey, drizzly and cold at the moment, but I don't care, as it's now time to open a nice bottle of wine, snuggle up beside the log fire for the evening and watch some TV, perhaps also a good (UHD) movie on Sky Box Office :)

Glad the snow has gone and Grant can get out and about. I can sense some pasta being on the menu again tonight.
Damp, cold, windy and very gloomy here. It's a touch warmer but nothing like the BBC promised to be 13c with clear skies. I was looking forward to getting into the garden to do some more tidying but it's too unpleasant..:( Thanks BBC for raising my hopes.

In fairness culpability lies with the Met Office who feed the BBC with their imaginative forecasts. According to their website it is 11 degrees here right now. Is it? Is it bollocks.
I'd like to know if sleet is unique to the British Isles. I reckon it is. Looking at international forecasts almost everywhere gets snow and rain but we seem to be the only place in the world to get both mixed together.
wet and breezy.. supposed to be 9c but its not quite that at 8c. managed out and got the boys shopping. i will go to aldi for mine when recovered. pain aside it was great to be out

It's mild at 12C, but there's gusty wind, gloom and drizzle. Heavier rain coming later apparently.
stormy here. was bad overnight.. 6c now and still quite windy
viciously cold wind out there. certain to blow the cobwebs away :lol:
Looks like we will see out Jan with no more ice and snow. Which is good. Of course we are not out of the woods yet. February can bite us on the ass quite badly.

Never mind Dave. Summer is not too far away.
Then you can enjoy the excessive heat, sticking to the bedclothes at night and sweating every time you do anything even remotely demanding and there'll be plenty of that, 'cos the garden will need doing and then you'll get sunburnt.
You won't be too sure about wearing that teeshirt, 'cos the waistline is getting out of control again.
And of course the roads will be crowded with traffic any sunny weekend day.
Then there's the hayfever, with the sneezing and watering eyes and the wasps and ants that'll bite or sting given half a chance.
I'd stick to tinkering with LP12's if I were you mate! :lol:

Then you can enjoy the excessive heat, sticking to the bedclothes at night and sweating every time you do anything even remotely demanding and there'll be plenty of that, 'cos the garden will need doing and then you'll get sunburnt.
You won't be too sure about wearing that teeshirt, 'cos the waistline is getting out of control again.
And of course the roads will be crowded with traffic any sunny weekend day.
Then there's the hayfever, with the sneezing and watering eyes and the wasps and ants that'll bite or sting given half a chance.

too late for me to worry about that :lol:

Tipping down. Heavy cloud; cloud at ground level in fact but I am 500 ft above sea level here so that does happen. Mild for January, though.

Yeah we should all move down to Cornwall. Seems like they get tropical air and 13 degrees when the rest of us battle on with winter.
Southern softies!...Its grim up north. Hit The North! :)

Southern softies!
I know some big Cornish fishermen and farmers who could change your mind about that. ;)

It's a bit fresh out there today at 3C, but nice and sunny. Should be a decent day.
