It's already -4.6C at 6pm. Haven't seen that low a temp at 6pm for
many a long year - shame the cloud will soon roll in as it might
have been a record. May beat last night's -5.8C though

Yes Dave got home from work for the afternoon the car thermometer
was still minus two c. Around 3:30 went up the shed (tried to avoid
it) and it was like a frigid pristine wonderland. The clouds had
cleared and the temperature was bitingly cold with the snow adding
that light that only a snow covering can; it reminded me of December
1981 after the initial snowfall which was on the 8/9th when we had
that hawberry -25c temp on the 13th December, that same intensity of
cold. as you say if the sky stays clear it will get very low tonight.
-----------------
I should've said record low for me, which isn't saying much as I only
have them for three years, although nothing much to beat in previous
ten I wouldn't have thought.
BTW - what's happened to your LDl's radio thermometer. Mine and Ron's
still going strong!
Dave

I think the battery in the sensor went kapput. It's still hanging un
my rustic arch

It is replaceable. Temp rising already.


Yeah but they don't seem to last long

Lithiums do.


Blimey Dave I want to monitor the weather not go to warp factor five.
