        The same here - low stratus incursion during the night acted as a blanket, high enough not to present as fog while at the same time preventing frost formation, but the temperature has only lifted 2 degrees, to 7C here, and I'm not expecting it to climb any further today.

          Dank and grey. It didn't feel too cold first thing but by lunchtime when I was doing some shopping there was a distinctly raw chill to the air. The outlook is apparently for more of the same, not a prospect to lift the spirits.

            Now, deep fog has descended. Temp 2C.

              Quite cold today. It’s 8C, according to Alexa. Sunny with cloud.

                Everyone, official forecasters and otherwise, are waiting to see what next week's anticipated polar outbreak will bring. Above usual sea temperatures are acting to ameliorate what could be expected from the existing present situation.

                  As I post up here, temp 3C, mist/fog encroaching.

                    Not yet here, though I am expecting it any minute now to descend, the temperature having fallen to 4C, which can't be far off the dewpoint. If fogulation occurs it will probably keep frost at bay.

                      fogulation

                      Great word!

                        The sky is currently sending out mixed messages; looking east is blue sky with some narrow white banks of cloud, looking the other way is blanket black cloud. The sun is out though and the forecast is for no rain so the washing will go out.

                          I don’t think we going to get rain today.

                              Hmmm... It's a bit brighter - because the airstream source is becoming more "continental", for the time being - but the temperature at midday was 1 degree celsius down on yesterdays, also indicating a trend as air comes all the way from Putinland. 1 degree may seem nit-picking, but as one gets into what in the old money are temperatures in the low forties such a drop feels more than it would feel at 10 degrees higher, especially if there is an increase in wind force... and if the air is damp!

                                A tiresomely leaky day, the more so as daytime rain wasn't initially on the cards. The clouds couldn't get it together to rain properly, just dribbled, so we had intermittent bouts of drizzle, some very wet, off and on throughout. It got noticeably colder from midday on despite the sun making a few brief appearances and not too much breeze. Tomorrow is looking distinctly unappealing, with not only rain but also a lot of cold wind.
