Wet snow blizzard blowing through just now - decision not to go golfing totally validated.

Yeah, just looked out the window and it’s snowing here too.
Thought we were finished for this season!
I’d been intending to fire up the lawnmower later on.

Another dusting here in Aberdeenshire, I was intending to cut the grass for the first time this year, but it looks like winter isn’t quite finished.

Ah well, at least the mower is now ready to go!

After a brief settled spell today, back to Atlantic weather... warmer, wetter, windier for rest of week.

Yuck.

Been offline for a week, any latest info on when I can start thinking about cleaning the BBQ and turning the heating off? lol

It’s been beautiful here in southern Spain for the past 3 weeks… day time highs 20-24*, lows 12-15*.

Comfortably warm enough to eat outside… even got a mild sunburn working outside last week.

Pool is still way to cold to swim in.

Nothing in the forseeable future - just Atlantic muck.


Enjoy today, top up that vitamin D

Properly sick of this now… whenever I open my weather app, theres just nothing to get remotely excited about 10 days out. Right now my biggest excitement is the chance of a low of 10c on Thursday.

Somewhat typically, I was smugly congratulating myself on not having to go anywhere while it was snowing, only to discover that the reason I couldn't find my tax documents for the car was that I'd last taxed it 13 months ago. Big fking oops.

Cue driving to the DMV in my wifes car, to find I needed to emissions test my car before I could tax mine.
Drive back home, get mine, off to the emissions center, back to the DMV.
$100 late fee, I'm happy with that. The DVLC would probably have tried to have me shot.

The highly credible Daily Mirror are reporting it "could" be 20c over the Easter weekend.

I've taken this with the world's biggest pinch of salt.

I caught a glimpse of the Daily Star front page yesterday and that was referring ton150mph Jetstream and storms.
