Seriously can't remember the last time we've had 2 dawn to dusk days of sun in a row! Don't think we will get a 3rd but well 2 is good enough

Well I don't know about you but a sheet of grey/white cloud has arrived this morning so no blue sky and sun here (actually as I'm typing this the sun has made a brief appearance). Still dry though and virtually no wind. Temperature at 7:00am was 1.1/0.7C with an overnight low that did go into the negative, but despite that there was no real frost on the grass or cars. Temperature was rising fairly quickly too, up to around 5C according to my car on the way to work at 8:30am.

I've got my stats in for the three winter months here in the Lomonds.  Thought I'd share how it stacked up with the last few winters :)

So we woke to a dull, dreich day, but no rain as was expected. In fact, the cloud lifted and we had another very pleasant day, not as sunny as previous days, but dry and calm. I think we're gauny get a hammerin' ramorra though. Knew it was too good to last!

Mainly cloudy here with a brisk wind but the sun is making the occasional brief appearance through the gaps. Still dry and given the temperature was sat in the high single digits at 8am when I left the house I suppose it could be classified as 'mild'.

Some very violent gusts this afternoon and the duststorms almost got going again along the coastal fields but were ended by some squally showers. A  top temperature of 8c but currently 6.1c. 

 

Round bales blown out of the barn for a second time in a week.

Doesn't sound too good. I was outside just here in the village and there were some nasty gusts this afternoon too.  Been digging this week, trying to prep another potato bed, and finding good moisture just beneath the grass - I guess the grass slows the drying right down compared to ploughed ground though.  You been stone picking yet?

Fairly breezy overcast and mild all day here but this evening the wind has really got going and is roaring round the house under bright moonlight. Is it just me living in an exposed position but the couple of calm days in  the middle of this last week were bliss after a winter of almost constant high winds

No it's felt the same here - though I'm pretty exposed too!

 

Lovely sunny start to the day, 10.5c already after yesterday's 13.6c here with 14.4c at Leuchars. Fresh WSWly breeze.

Frustrating kind of day today. It's trying to brighten up at times but seemingly as soon as it tries, we get another period of drizzle although saying that it's not exactly dull
