Fab day here in the Channel, lovely sunrise over the islands turned into a warm spring like day, cold wind sets in tomorrow, on a side note my son who's a ski instructor in Banff said the temp was - 27 last night.

Christ O'Lordy the easterly wind is making it feel bloomin' cold here today on the Mercia/Wessex frontier. The border guards don't look happy.

Coldest I've felt all winter. I'd rather it was -10c, still and sunny than +4c, grey, damp and windy. This really is the worst type of weather winter can summon IMHO.

Thoroughly miserable in the south east. A bit windy, rainy and it couldn't be more grey

I feel my calling in life is to challenge the perception of miserable Scottish weather. Another cracking winters sunny day here in the NE.

Driving tomorrow. Berks to Leicester to Wigan to Leicester and back to Berks. Was planning on doing a scenic cross-country route on the way up via Winnats Pass, having a wee lunch break thereabouts in that Peak District.

Will I get snowed on and stuck like a lemon?

The forecasts vary at the moment, but they seem to agree that the Peaks will get a good few CM of snow... and last time that happened the police had to close Winnats Pass as the hard of thinking decided it was acceptable to 'park' their cars wherever they thought it was OK to do so.

I'd avoid Winnats pass for that reason as it'll be clogged up with the Mam Tor 'waddle few yards from the car, drop some litter and leave' brigade.
