Certainly my sentiments Will. All this electronic instrumentation I
have in readiness to witness a real winter and nothing, absolutly
nothing! We've even missed the rain and gales of the last week, which
does'nt bother me particularily, but I am realy getting dissolusioned
with the weather nowadays. I've only recorded 9.4mm of rain this
January, so we maybe heading for one of our driest January's for many
a year, hard to beleive for many I guess. Of course media attention
will be focused on the 'Frost' that may bring the SE to a standstill
with headlines such as 'Deep Freeze' comes in as forecast. I can only
think the media are still in nappies and think a blizzard is something
you have a day out at in Orlando. On the plus, heating bills are kept
down and I hardly have to scrape ice off the car in the mornings. I am
expecting the 21°c to be recorded in the SE sometime at the end of
March this year after that who knows anything could happen, but one
thing is certain it will be blamed on global warming, which was
happening anyway and there's nothing we can do about it!

Another tablet :-)

The weather girl on Sky News this afternoon was continually emphasising
how 'very, very cold' it will be tonight. This with the temperature
forecast to remain above zero! I wonder how she would cope with a 'real'
cold spell :-)
