Just back from 36 hours in mild snowless Lymington :-(

Obviously a dusting of snow here in Haytor earlier today as moor frozen
solid
and still some blown snow on top of Hay Tor and icy bits in my garden.

Ah well loads more snow to come as we get towards New Year vbg

Will.

Snowless & frostless in Penzance as normal.

Minimum temperature last night was +4.1 degrees.

In fact in the last 4 years (commencing 2000) we have only had 23 air
frosts, of which 12 occured when it was virtually calm. Any sort of real
wind and the warming affect of the sea is normally just too great, unless
the wind is a North-easterly running down the spine of the peninsula. Of the
11 air frosts which occured when it was fairly windy, 6 occured when the
wind was E or NE.

I'm not a cold weather person, but it would be nice to see a bit of snow
rather more frwquently than twice a decade.
