Tideswell, Derbyshire - Wednesday 13th January 2021
--------------------------------------------------------------------- 0630z CALM 3000 -FZRA 8St007 -00.1/-00.6 1018 RMK: Looks like there's been slight rain for some time with the temp below zero. I haven't been able to get out of the house yet this morning due to the underfoot conditions. Everything is covered in a layer of smooth glaze that has a film of liquid water on it. It just looks wet but it's extremely slippery and could result in more business for A & E Departments, as if they weren't busy enough already. The temperature is creeping up so the conditions may not last very much longer. -- Norman Lynagh Tideswell, Derbyshire 303m a.s.l. https://peakdistrictweather.org Twitter: @TideswellWeathr |

Surfaces look wet but untreated surfaces are actually covered in ice that's got a film of liquid water on it. I haven't been able to get up the path to the raingauge and the grass min thermometer so those readings will follow later. 09-09z: Tx 4.3 (1340z) Tn -2.2 (0101z) RR to follow 15-09z: Tg to follow 00-24z: Sun 4.7 -- Norman Lynagh Tideswell, Derbyshire 303m a.s.l. https://peakdistrictweather.org Twitter: @TideswellWeathr |

Don't we just love the cold. Cold, ice and snow are hard work! Ken |

By the way, you forgot the frozen anemometer. Apart from a solitary gust to 2 knots it has been showing flat calm with no change in direction for the past 7 hours. I know that there isn't much wind around this morning but I find it hard to believe that we've had 7 hours of flat calm. That just doesn't happen here. -- Norman Lynagh Tideswell, Derbyshire 303m a.s.l. https://peakdistrictweather.org Twitter: @TideswellWeathr |

Defrosting the mast and anemo are steps too far!! Ken |

Underfoot conditions started to improve soon after 0900z and most of the ice had gone by 1100z. There's been fog from time to time in the afternoon. Max temp +2.7C and there's been no sunshine. All told, a grim day. -- Norman Lynagh Tideswell, Derbyshire 303m a.s.l. https://peakdistrictweather.org Twitter: @TideswellWeathr |
