Variable cloud and murk inland, down on the coast there were spells of glorious sunshine (short lived) and mist and grey (long lived).

Yesterday turned into sunshine, but I don't think today's cloud and overcast conditions are going to improve. Mild.

We had a VERY hard frost first thing but cloud came in by mid-morning. I finished work at 1pm by which time you could barely see more than a few yards through the fog! I had planned to pop down to Blyth to look for the two Bewick Swans but the driving conditions were so scarey I decided to pop across to Amble Harbour instead and I'm glad I did! Within a mile of the coast the fog suddenly lifted and left a lovely clear day. A bit breezy mind and there was an icy nip in the air but it was so refreshing and invigorating. I've just read that the Bewicks were not seen today but I DID have the most gorgeous Mediterranean Gull in the harbour and then, on the way home, I saw a herd of swans in a field so pulled over and was thrilled to bits when they showed themslves to be six Mute and seven Whooper. :king:

It's currently sounding rather windy outside and 4.6 on the thermometer.

:C :C :C

Snow! Woke to a light covering, but it has continued to snow since 7am and is quite thick now. Not as bad as last week, but if it carries on at this rate, then I shall be stranded again.

Blue sky! Sunshine! Cold! Lying snow! (As in on the ground, not snow telling porkies.)

Just a teeny glimpse of some blue sky and sunshine today, but it was on the coast, inland has been grey all day.

Weather? Bah!!
The forecast was grey and dull, so I made today a work day! Turned out it's glorious sunshine and I could have gone birding!
