Too nice to be at work.
Daylight max. +8.1C (rather mild). Dry apart from a very slight sleety shower
(reliably informed) this morning. Sunny spells.

Now almost SKC temp +2.6C and falling. DP -1C. Surfaces dry!!! I haven't been
able to say that for a long time.

One or two daffs just starting to poke through the soil, probably encouraged by
the warm sunshine.

Will.

Aye, it were a good 'un.

A max of 10.8C in the early afternoon sunshine. Two dry days on the trot,
can't be bad.

Managed to climb up into the silver maple tree in the garden this afternoon
and lop a few branches off which were obstructing a bit of the horizon to
the R&D sunshine sensor on the roof.

Temperature dropping fast now though.

Currently (18:20), 3.6C, RH 74%, DP -0.3C, 1035.1 hPa (R), Wind calm WSW,
5.2 hours of sunshine today.

Your daffs should therefore be in flower by April then Will,
Here in the blessed southeast ( the area you abandoned ) many of the garden
daffs are in bud ,and the wild ones on on our local green have been in
flower for a week !..

I think you'll find they've been selling Cornish daffodils in the SE
for a few weeks now!

LOL Graham.

My daffs are not the early variety and they usually start flowering mid-late
March.
One clump is now 1.5 inches above the soil, IIRC they normally start to poke
through late Jan/ early Feb so they are not early or late in that behaviour this
year. Primroses looking nice now.
