Default [WR] Peterhead 13.03.2005 - March frost shocker!

Hi, Gianna,

No frosts in all February or early March?


Hi Ken,

March had been quite mild until a couple of days ago, as was much of
February.
I had one zero in March (6th), and also one zero in February (20th)
but I think it has to be below zero to count as a frost.



Blimey
The years we were in Peterhead -- urrmmm thinks --- around 83 to 86 - it
was definately colder than that
1985-6 [I think] was a cracker I spent the winter commuting every week to
Dundee early in the morning. Most of the time I was in the same traffic
stream as the gritters, snow ploughs etc. Banks of snow along the road were
present for weeks it seemed


Both months seem to have featured a cold spell ... it seemed February
would be warmer than January until week 3 ... March looks a little
confusing at the moment ... mild, now cold, and apparently about to be
rather warm.


Warm -- Peterhead is NEVER warm :~)))
Mintlaw -- that gets warm -- but not Peterheid
:~P

You don't need high temps for a tan, I picked one up at 1300 m in Norway
last week and it was around ms 6 all the time.

Nearly got the shorts on today it was so warm (East Yorkshire - dreading
anything over 18)


Hi Trveor,

I doubt you can beat a deep brown tan on the face, after one and a half
days, at a maximum temperature of MS11 degC !? We were above 3000m most of
the time though.

Indeed, but then I wrote in jest of course.
I was delivered with a fully fitted basic level tan anyway (-:
