Osborne One-Nil

Well, I'm not far from Newton Aycliffe, albeit a bit further inland, and we had snow for a time last night, and it was settling. Woke up this morning though and nothing at this level. Currently 0.9C and blowing hard.

Currently 0.9C after being 4.5C at 7.12am. Clear overhead, but onimous skies to the north and west!

Just come back from Penrith, and the hills around Ullswater are covered in snow. Looks quite low too....certainly down to 1000ft and probably even lower. Back home it's 1.1C and sleeting hard, turning increasingly wintery.

Interestingly, the temperature has dropped this morning from 7.7C at 4.50am (when my darling daughter woke me) down to 5.1C now. When I say interestingly, I mean it in the loosest possiible sense of the word.

Another cold night, minimum -5.3C and now rising slowly at -3.7C and going to be another sunny day (when it rises)

No problems here! Weather-wise, it's now -3.4C and clear.

A maximum today of 3.5C and now droppinig back down again. For the second day running...not a single breath of wind...unheard of (and the anonomometer IS working too!)

Wonderful morning here. Clear skies, currently -4.5C after a minimum of -5.2C.

Well, it's now a wonderful -2.5C here, and crystal clear.

God, you lot have it mild don't you...you should move north! A lovely winter's day here today, with watery sunshine and not a breath of wind. Got up to 4.5C here today and is currently 1.5C and dropping fast.

Quite nice here, after all the damp dull stuff. Very light cloud cover, 1.8C after reaching a maximum of only 4.9C today. This is more like it!

I'm quite enjoying today actually, seeing some proper rain for a change, and some decent winds. Better than boring nothingness. Anyway, currently 10.7C, and windy...averagin about 18mph and a gust of 34.2mph, which is the highest of the autumn so far (pathetic really...700ft up, and that's the highest?!!)

Currently -1.7C, fog lifting, and another beautiful sunny day looks on the cards. Northern Lights were good here too!

Had 5mm of rain last night, taking this month's total to 17.5mm...and Cumbria's meant to be wet?! Currently 5.6C, milky sunshine, and lovely

Currently 9.4C (warmest temperature since October 18th), grey, murky, damp, and horrible...wouldn't mind so much if it actually rained! Last night's minimum 7.4C (highest minimum since October 13th)
