Cloudy day here, no rain forecast. Nights for the next week may be subzero. Could be a bit sleety tomorrow morning.

I hope everyone has a good day

One of the company audits I was involved with years ago had a subsidiary in Wales with its HQ in Cardiff. One day I had to go there to review the files. So I went there by Cardiff on the train and went to the HQ. Come lunchtime and we were taken out for lunch by the FD in his car. It was rather snowy by then.
It's easy to remember the date I went as it was March 17th, St Patrick's Day.

Good morning everyone

Sleeting here at present, forecast to stop around 10, may get some rain this afternoon, a high of 9°, a low tonight of around zero.

I hope everyone has a good day and stays warm

I wouldn't normally post a BBC collection of sport photos but he first one is rather like the opposite to the famous scene in "E.T.", there's also a nice photo of a couple of horses walking in the sea:

The sleet here has stopped and what little had settled on cold cars has gone.

My father had a kit for making something like that many years ago but I don't remember seeing anything completed. Those were in the days before Lego.

Good morning Buddies

I’m told we had snow overnight but when I got up it had gone. Just looked like it had been raining. We should reach the great height of 8° today it’s bright sunshine atm

Enjoy your day everyone

There would have been some snow in this area but at higher levels, Moonie though I think that would have gone by now

Thanks Moonie There are more photos shown than there had been with the later ones from elsewhere in the world to show a total eclipse rather than the partial one visible in the UK

Is that the same as the Brooklyn Tower?

The BBC have been changing that webpage and I had only seen the 10 photos in the gallery at the top, the CN Tower one being the 7th. The text in the article underneath ended with the bit describing what a lunar eclipse is, all the text afterwards starting with a photo from Istanbul has been added since including the photo you are referring to, hence my confusion
