Just got back from my 11 mile stroll on the high southern moor. Ryders
Hill (515m asl), Green Hill (473m asl), Ducks Pool area.
Continuous light snow all morning into the afternoon. Settling. Frozen
ground above 480 metres.
Lovely afternoon, sun popped out and it felt milder. It wasn't though
just drier, sublimating a lot of the snow.
Braced for tomorrow, looking at 20cm plus with drifting in my area!
Slight thaw tomorrow evening before it turn cold tomorrow night. Should
get some sledging in.
At 1700 in Haytor T+2.3C D-1.3C. Max +2.8C.

Ciao,
Will

If you go for a 10 mile stroll tomorrow be careful you don't slip and hurt
yourself again ;-)


Hopefully I'll be hurtling down the steep slopes of Hay Tor with my son on
our new sledges!
My son is pretty good and likes to go very fast.
And I suspect I'll fall off once or twice. Last time I went sledging I hurt
my back careering off the sled, but hey, that's life.
I'll be careful, perhaps :-)

Will
