Bit chillier out there today, and skies taking on a different look , definite an icy look to them recently. Heard the radio mention the countdown to windscreen scraping in the morning...magic.

 

Will be good to see more regulars re-appear from the Summer Hibernation as the mercury teeters towards 0.

 

Fascinating winter in prospect too, after last years SSW will we get another? Are we 'officially' in an 'unofficial' new cycle of colder Winters? Or is this a blip?

Will Fort SS and Catch get all the snaw? Where will the Snaw shield be this year.

 

Overnight temps creeping down tonight, think 4 degrees over the Cairngorms forecast. it's on the way..

A cold start to the day at 3c followed by a dry day with a fresh to strong NW wind and a maximum of 14c. A real nice fresh autumn day. Loaded another two lorries of grain this morning not much to go now.

Put these in the Winter thread NL, as one of the proposers of the thoughts about a Winter shift in cycles these anomaly charts may be of interest..

 

Increased cold anomaly very evident when you strip the last 4 years out and put them alongside all the years since the start of the century. Perhaps the massive anomalies of just the last few exceptional Winters overriding the climate average, perhaps something else. One wonders if another cold Winter this season, will again push this viewpoint forward...

 Hi Lorenzo Thanks for the above

 

 My personal thoughts are that the sleepy  sun has a lot to do with our much colder recent winters.I belive N.A.S.A. are taking a much closer look at the sun and its affect on climate .

 Farm planning is still being based a long winte rwith possibly an early start. Plenty of snow on the ski sports areas webcams today

It's nice to be popping in and reading all the thoughts for the forthcoming winter.  

 

A bit windy here today, feeling a little chilly tonight - first night with the fire on! no central heating on yet though.

 

Hoping the new cooker will add to the kitchen heat through the winter!

Well the ramping for a fine and warm settled spell on the model thread is in full throttle. Although it looks good, it would only take a little alteration of the position of the high and we up here in bonny scotland would become very changeable. I would love a fine and settled spell to take us in to autumn proper. Really chilly this morning, had to put a jumper on today!!!!!

After a cold damp start at 6c this morning the day has brightened up and it is currently 14c. Secured enough red clover silage to hopefully see the winter out yesterday in great breezy dry conditions.post-2744-0-72661600-1379601711_thumb.jppost-2744-0-61180800-1379601723_thumb.jp

Got a wee bit on an Indian Summer on the way until next Thursday. Then turning really cold the weekend after by the looks of it. Quite enjoying the cool just now winter coat and stuff will go away after Sunday though.

Fantastic summers day made it to 21c ideal  for washing the baler etc.... before oiling and greasing and storing for the winter. 

 

Twins born last evening were sucking an hour after the photo was taken and are now skipping round the pen.  For the last two years have been  using a new very expensive  mineral lick with lots of trace elements which our  glacial soils are very deficient in. The most obvious result is the amount of get up and go newly born calves have.

 

Grass in the fields is taking on a fresh green surge in growth. Cows and calves loving it.

It was fantastic to have a return to summery weather today with a maximum of 20C. Tomorrow looks like being the same but it could also be the last of the proper summer weather for this year.

Sounds like a load for the freezer to me...
