No snow yet I hope, although I suspect there will be some on the higher
fells today. Great Dun Fell is reporting 0C atm.


Just over 1 C now (1430) we are about 6 C with sunny intervals. Can't
see GDF from here, Crossfell is to backlit by the bright sun lit
clouds to be anything but black buldge.

Current W force 6/7 here, one of those heat-sapping winds. You think the
house is well insulated (:0(


Only showing F3/4 here but the NW'ly direction is a sheltered. It's
not a day one wants to spend very long outside in the wind. Not bad
if in the sunshine and sheltered though.

No sign of showers here, think we are just in the rain shadow of
Dumfries & Galloway.

Oil consumption has gone up in the last couple few weeks from around
25 l/week to 75 l/week. B-(
