================================================== ==
First thing this morning the ground was covered by ice from the sleety rain
which was falling yesterday evening. I'm surprised we didn't get snow
because it was cold enough. The wet sleety/rainy stuff froze on the ground
and cars and for a while put my wind speed and wind direction equipment out
of action.
After sunrise the temperature climbed steadily and by early afternoon the
ice had gone and we were having a bit of a heatwave at 7C... it felt quite
pleasant in the sunshine. Not a bad day at all and as the sun begins to go
down, it's still 6.8C.
Regards... David Allan.
