Allotments 4 All

Very cold here in West Berks, but it wont snow - it never does...will probably rain - again. I checked our well today, its now got 2.5m of water in it - 2 weeks ago it was bone dry...

its cold here Temperature  -2.1°C  but no snow!

Cambourne - it's probably 'too cold to snow'  ;D  ;D

2' when I came out of keep fit.  Clear clear sky so I reakon a heavy frost come morning.

I'd just like to know how you can have a frost when its blowing a gale? Just seen the beeb's weather for tonight. They forecast clear skies and frost. Last tme i looked out it was cloudy and very windy (has been all evening).

You can have frost and a howling gale quite easily if the actual air temperature is below freezing.

Snowed for about two minutes this morning 6.30 most of you were probably still in bed, a bright sunny afternoon but brass monkeys with them winds.   :( :( :( ;D

OKAY its cold now! Low of -1.9c last night (but the greenhouse was a nice snug +4c  ;D). High of +5c today, though its about +1c out now. Looks like tonight could be colder than las night as we have had clear skies all day. Which in itself was nice - yesterday was horrible with all the cloud and wind on top of the cold. Today nice and bright and sunny, albeit freezing cold, had to wear a fleece under my usualy suficiently warm overcoat today.

Coldest day of the winter so far and the office heating has packed up! Still, might get to go home early ;)

The car said -4 this morning and was covered in a layer of snow.

had to use a kettle to open the door to get in.

much better than wind and rain - I can hear the garlic splitting

Well thats just typical isnt it. Similar here. Coldest day of the year and no hot soup for lunch - get it most days but not today!

Bonfire day, I have been saving it all for a day like today. Not quite freezing but the wind chill make you think it is. Nice and sunny though.

0' when I headed to work this morning.  Quite warm in the sun, but then I did have a vest, t-shirt, fleece and wooly jumper on, along with longjohns, tracky pants and ski socks.  ;D  Cold tonight - my love with have freezing fingers when he gets home.  Planting 200 beech trees tomoz  :-\.  I'm sure this cold isn't ideal tree planting weather, but what this client wants, this one gets.

Can't beat the L J's  EJ. ;D ;D ;D

Woke up to snow again today and it's still snowing!! not quite the 6 inces they threatened - but it could still come!

Too Right! Decided yesterday i just had to get outside, been stuck inside one way or another for too long. Fancied tackling a pine tree stump in the garden that had started to annoy me, so donned LJs, Fleece, thick overcoat, hat and gloves (as well as usual gardening gear) and headed out. Didnt notice the cold at all. Didnt get the job done though - bit too tough to do all in one go, and i think the blade on my bow saw is worn out. Never mind. ;-)
