    A rather cold sunny day down here. However, our boiler is not working, so no heating or hot water!

Brilliant sunshine until about 40 mins ago made things look pretty and did a good job of clearing the frost, now it's clouding over although still reasonably bright, and staying dry, but with that unpleasant wind. The strong wind and its direction will have pushed the frost into parts of the garden normally pretty sheltered, including racks of seedlings and cuttings, so there may have been some casualties - a greenhouse would be so useful but that's still a way off yet.
        Good idea to cover 'em up over frosty nights, if you've got an old blanket, or carpet.

            There was a beautiful pink glow in the sky this morning just after sunrise - Shepherd’s warning - it has already rained and more is on its way! It is 9C!

              Same here, -5 last night. Is your boiler working again? Rain due to move in during the afternoon; combined with strong winds that won't be pleasant.

                When I went for a walk it was about 2 degrees, frosty and still. Now it's snowing and raining with a bit of wind.

                    Are you standing outside my house, Draco? Sounds like it.

                        One too many snowflakes in among that sleet, Draco!

                        It clouded up from the west in double-quick time here this morning, following last night's heavy frost at Minus 2 C. Spits and spots of moderate rain so far. They're talking of showers and cold winds tomorrow - I shall be on the lookout for snow flakes among the sleet! - then milder again with further wind and rain for Saturday, and so on, maintaining the westerly type as long as can be ascertained.
