Scott did go sub-zero in his frost hollow in the end but just down to
zero here. Have another try tonight, although there could be more cloud
and an outside chance of a bit of light snow I suppose.
Dave, S.Essex


Went sub-zero here last night though at around midnight the temperature
rose from 0.1C to 2.4 for an hour before dropping back again.

A sharp little frost in the end with -2.1C.

Soil temperatures have been on a slow decline after the grand 'winter'
highs of 13.0C @ 30 cm and 13.7C @ 100 cm on the 21st December. Current
30 cm soil temperature is 7.3C and current 100 cm soil temperature is 11.1C.

On this date last year the soil temperatures were 8.7C @ 30 cm and 10.8C
@ 100 cm.
