A grass min of 1.1c here early yesterday evening but an increasing W breeze and, later, cloud ended any chance of a ground frost.

Sunday night looks like the next chance for the first ground frost of the season here.

Same here, P.M. 57 mph  recorded at 1825 g.m.t. It seems to have decreased a bit in the last half hour though.

Very cold start to the day here at 1.8 C! Very still and looks to be a fine and sunny day ahead. This is my favourite type of autumn weather!

The first mention, this season, of snow at 600m  in the Peak District on the Met Office forecast. Snow at 600m usually means sleet or perhaps a bit of wet snow at this level, assuming there's something falling from the sky in the first place.

I live in hope

Proper Bonfire Night weather tonight. Pretty chilly, misty and with a touch of ground frost too. Quite idyllic really.

yep, especially my part of Walsall, near to Bloxwich, with the fireworks and bonfires going on, but to add to all that there is also a major fire at a recycling plant, don't know if you have heard about that or not, but it is certainly adding even more smoke out there.

Ello ello ello! I'm officially a Midlander again (just) :D I live in Rushden in Northants now. 

Hoping for a nice snowy Winter, probably won't get one again but last Winter was absolutely atrocious. 

I now ride a motorbike as well so it's a little more dangerous for me personally if we have a cold and snowy Winter but i still want snow and lots of it xD

Hopefully see many familiar faces on here again this Winter :)

Welcome back Andy...

Lets hope we have some of the white stuff this year.

Not sure why my post ended up in bold type yesterday. It was not intended.

Overnight low of 1.5C here last night. Frost prevented by the cloud not clearing until the early hours.

Beautiful clear start this morning.
