It's been nice and sunny, all day. I don't know what the temperature's been like, out there, though.

Apparently, it's been ten degrees.

And it's going to drop to just two, overnight.

Very windy today, but sunny. My washing's drying nicely. I triple-pegged some of the items to prevent blowaway.

Insanely windy here, all day.

And now it's started raining.

Cold bright sunny day.

It's so miserable out there I've cracked open the Xmas Bailey Irish Cream early.

I had to.

It's a beautiful sunny morning but there's a hefty dose of frost everywhere.

here. Also a flat calm all day - steam from Glasgow's various industrial chimneys going straight up. 'Smoke rises vertically' is the Beaufort description for Force 0, and the same goes for steam.

but also

It's only 4 degrees, out there.

Nevertheless, I've got the window open, because the low sun has been shining straight in.

It's quite cold out where I live, though it's going to warm up a little bit. It's 29 degrees F (-1 C) but tomorrow the high is 58 F (14 C). I wish it would stay in the cooler temps though.

Forecast daytime temperatures of 1-2 C for the foreseeable future

When I went out at 8.45am, the sun was still only illuminating the tops of things. And it was flipping cold. I could feel the cold striking up from the ground through the soles of my chelsea boots.
