Is that the habit of spending the entire summer in a remote village in the forests of Central Southern Scotland?

It's sort of snowing here at the mo.  (SA39)  A cross between soft hail and sleet.
Admission.  I'm actually not that fussed about cake.

Well, that was a good start. Get home from a weekend away to find a teeny sprinkle of snow. On my way out to pick up the cats from Borstal I fall down our steps (I was heading for the shed to get some clearing implements). It feels like I've broken my arse.
Not leaving the igloo again til April  >:(.
Do not clench. It only makes it worse.

We just had a heavy sleety shower. Temperature now close to zero under a clear sky - with wet roads and pavements. Hmm... time to fit the studded tyres. Or stay indoors.

Cycled past some patches of white frozen stuff lying on the grass verges this evening on the way home through the High Peak....

Frosty in Reading. Mrs B had to scrape her windscreen this morning, & it's a safe bet she'll have to again tomorrow.

My rooftop erection is claiming that the temperature is 1°C at present. There are no clouds and there is ice on the parked cars outside.

It's the lowest temperature here since 7th April.

Well I guess here we are at the beginning of it all.
We've got -5.5 here in FrostPocket Chesham at the moment.
Yes, that's Chesham, Bucks, not Chesham somewhere in Siberia.

It was -3°C in Norway a week ago and is -3°C here in Slovakia now. There's snow on the mountains but not yet in the town; it usually arrives at the start of December.
I'm surprised it's that late. The first snow is usually mid-November in Poland. I guess the Tatry keep you sheltered for a while!

Squally hail/sleet shower this morning, now bright sunshine and a sky that looks like something out of a toothpaste advert.

Freakin' cold, though.

It snowed in Burnley yesterday. Pendle Hill was lovely and white.

Not snowing in Brighton. Nonetheless, it has been hailing like billy-o, and more blustery than the blustery day you could imagine here in Brighton. I think it was Philip Avery on BBC's R4 just before 1pm this afternoon who said it should be clearing the southeast. Pah!
Certainly never seen cycling south of Sussex

Lots of hail here in N-u-L, it's been dark most of the day. It's currently raining heavily and still dark :D

The bike is ready for the snow that's been predicted so I'm ready for it!

There was very heavy rain with some hard bits in it around lunchtime near Basildon. As I cycled to Leigh this afternoon there was a sliver of melting slush at the base of a north-facing wooden fence, so it must have snowed a little earlier.

On checking, I've notices that at about 3 am today there was an air frost, and the minimum temperature was -0.2°C!
