[Daniel*]

An unbelievably gorgeous winters day in Docklands, much more akin to continental Europe.

Cold 2.4°C.

[Captain Shortwave]

A fine and sunny day, the frost remained in the shade all day with a high of just 2C.

I feel your pain. Our boiler packed up on Friday and no-one can come till Tuesday. The sunshine is helping today as it shines In to the lounge and we have a has fire. Test of the house is freezing through.

We're in a rented property and the landlord want 3 quotes ... so we're still waiting but the guy who came out initially said he was booked up until next weekend anyway! Brrrr

[bluebell]

The sun finally broke through the clouds! A stunning sunset happening. 

[Eagle Eye]

The SSW could bring around the same amount of Snow or even more than Scotland has been having. 

So here is a Webcam Picture near Edinburgh to get you ready for the possible Snow that could happen. 

[Country Boy]

Thick Fog just coming down here now, -1 all day

[slater]

Just managed a ice day at -0.3c max with fog all day here in Mid Norfolk...3 ice days this winter 

[Paul Sherman]

Amazing differences across Essex today. With Stanstead having freezing fog and an Ice Day and here in SE Essex having a beautiful Sunset a while ago and 5 1/2 hours of Sunshine with temps of 4c today. 

Fog sounds like it wont be far away with the temp now dropping under clear skies and only has 3c to drop to get to the Dewpoint of 0c so would expect Fog by 7pm here as well.

 

[North Downs Snowboarder]

Just been for a socially distanced walk down some country roads, the fog never completely lifted here today. Took some pics of the frost high up in the trees and icicles hanging in the hedges. In the second pic you can see flooding that's been here since early December, the fields on either side of this road are thoroughly waterlogged

[NO LONGER POSTING]

Just about to go negative here DP already -1 

Not a cloud in the sky.. 

[Hotspur62]

From about midday the sun broke through and we reached a maximum of 2 degrees exactly at 1.45 and did an hours gardening in the warmest part of the day.Dropping like a stone now under clear skies and it is already -0.5.Hope skies stay clear and our lowest temperature of winter(-2.7) could be under threat.

[Eagle Eye]

No words can describe the beauty of mother nature.

Wow 4c we only got to 1.8c here in Gravesend on the South side of the Thames! Big difference albeit you're closer to the North sea. Was a lovely crisp day here

[Eagle Eye]

Wow, mother nature.

We haven’t had a boiler (heating) for the whole winter! We are moving (to Scotland) next year and a developer will probably buy my houses so there’s no point in having one put in! We have a huge open fire and we wear a lot!!

Wow! Don't know how you've managed it. Only been two days for us and we are basically living in one room. Exciting times for you moving to Scotland.

[TommyB]

Another fantastic sunset today, went to the country park to take some photos and couldn't feel my hands or nose at the end

Still, was lovely and peaceful and a beautiful sunset!

[Norfolk_N_chance]

I believe nature has an idea of what's coming as mentioned above. 

I have never seen so many visitors to my fathers feeder today. Its not got above freezing all day around here in North Norfolk.

Barely got the sun this afternoon before darkness, fog has been very thick.

 

[SMU]

-2.1 / -2.3c at home already !!

[Eagle Eye]

-2oc outside already

[Uxbridge90]

Very foggy and down to -2.3c already, going to be a cold one!

[Paul Sherman]

Still clear here so my 7pm estimate for Fog gone wrong. 

Temp 0.4c 

Dewpoint 0.1c

Wind from the North at 0.1mph

Strange how temps dont seem to be crashing here this evening.
