A wild, wet and windy night.

After hearing of snow falling further west I thought we were going to get
some of the white stuff here but only rain is falling now after a little
bit of sleet earlier on.

Have been frost free for the last two nights with the previous frost-free
night being the 31st Dec. All the snow has melted and everything back to
normal, i.e., nice and green. Ol' David Braine even hinted that 10°C was
on the cards for the weekend; tropical!

Got stuck in grid-locked traffic at Countess Wear in south Exeter as the
A380 & A38 were closed with everybody trying to get home via the coastal
Dawlish road. Nightmare situation, I ended up having to mount
pavements/drive between lamposts/squeeze through gaps etc etc to get to
the Topsham Rd roundabout and eastwards to Junction 30.

Currently pouring down with rain, and howling a hooley too.

(20:00), 2.2°C, RH 90%, DP 0.2°C, 997 hPa (F), Wind 18 mph ESE.
