[WR] Dartmoor tundra (6/3/05)
================================================== ================== This posting expresses the personal view and opinions of the author. Something which everyone on this planet should be able to do. ================================================== ================== Lovely sunny day up here on the tundra. went for a 14 mile walk high up on the moor round Princetown. Moor is frozen solid above 400m and stayed so all day despite sunshine. Round North Hessary Tor (515m asl) 2-3 foot snow drifts along a wall and by the road near Princetown 2 foot drifts with patches snow in the town and in the long grass. Grass is yellow and drying quickly. Very little snow left elsewhere. 1800 Haytor Temp 0.3 deg C Dewpoint -7 deg C Wind NW 2 knots Weather - clear Bar 1031.9 hPa - rising Day max. 4.3 deg C Night min. -1.9 deg C Ground frozen Earth temps: 60 cm 3.2 30 cm 2.9 10 cm 1.3 1 cm -0.4 deg C All plants stopped growing over a week ago and grass wearing out due to no growth. I had my first daffodil open last year on the 6th, still no sign this year ! From the frozen and bitterly cold Dartmoor tundra, Will. -- " Visit Haytor meteorological office at http://www.lyneside.demon.co.uk/Hayt...met_office.htm " ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A COL BH site in East Dartmoor at Haytor, Devon 310m asl (1017 feet). mailto: www: http://www.lyneside.demon.co.uk DISCLAIMER - All views and opinions expressed by myself are personal and do not necessarily represent those of my employer. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
