Hi Ken.
Freezing rain followed by a cm or 3 of snow last night and it rose
above freezing, just, overnight. Another -8.7 before it started
raining at -5.7, but rose quite rapidly. Has been thick fog all day
and a brief 0.7, but has now dropped back to -0.4, so barely a thaw at
all.
Since Saturday very little snow here, has been beautiful and sunny and
even with 5 ice days in a row it hasn't really felt cold, though when
it was -11.5 it hit the lungs.
Happy to see the end of it now and ready for the next lot!
ATB for Christmas and New Year.
