Hi Folks

There was a bit of frost on the windscreen this morning in Southend, so a bit of scraping required before I could drive to the station. There was a light mist around Leigh then the mist thickened as we travelled up to London, and London itself is shrouded in fog which is still thickening. Its a long time since I have seen this in London, although my car said the temparature was +1 degree on the drive to the station, with so much dampness in the air, the day feels like one of those bone chillingly cold late autumn/early spring days we used to get in the good old days :-)

Cheers

FC

3rd consecutive air frost and 2nd consecutive thick fog; spring!

then the past 2 days have seen temps in double figures in the afternoon with unbroken sunshine and no wind, so hoping for the same today.

lowest temp is now at -2.6C, one of the lowest in this so called winter.

Sunny and almost cloudless with a temperature, on the mast on the house roof at least, of 8.3c. I haven't been up to the screen yet but I wouldn't think it would be much different.

Thick white frost visible in the valleys. Oh the joys of warm anticyclones!

Yet another picture perfect day here, with not a cloud in the sky for the 4th day in a row.

Overnight min 4.2c, already up to 11.1c at 11am, with another 13 or 14c on the cards this afternoon. Apart from 6" of snow and a temp of -3c it's hard to imagine anything more prefect than this for mid February.

Morning TM, yes it just shows how marked this inversion of cold air is, even now at 11:15am, the temperature is only 3.8c, still plenty of ground frost in the shade. The same conditions were apparent yesterday, but by around 1pm though the temperature inversion collapsed and I recorded 10.2c around 15:00hrs, probably higher than your maximum.

Not quite Paul but very close, we managed 10.4c yesterday after a min' of 3.8c.

Currently cloudless with the Davis on the roof mast fluctuating between 14.1 and 14.7c; the 1998 record here of 15.5c is definitely under threat.

Thanks TM, I suspected your temperature would be higher than my 12c today, as i noticed a station in leek also reporting 14.9c at 14:00hrs.

Another moderate frost overnight and early this morning, the temperature dropped below freezing around 1am with an eventual minimum air temperature of –3.3c and a grass minimum of –6c. At 9am, sunny and still very frosty. The morning continued to be sunny, though rather cool until around midday. The afternoon continued very sunny and much milder with the temperature reaching near 12c around mid afternoon.

Beautiful day today, felt like we've fast forwarded a couple of months!

I would be happy if that's the warmest it got all year.

Looking at some North East stations it looks like it was about 12 - 13°C.
