Good morning everyone

Minus 5 here outside, struggling to get much over zero during today.

I hope everyone has a good day and try to keep warm

Yes, Baz

A 9 minute animated film "The Magic Canvas" made in 1948 by the British animators Halas and Bachelor (they made "Animal Farm" (1954)). It's very different from typical cartoons and animated films of that time.

Good morning Buddies

A sharp frost overnight but the sun is making an appearance every now and again so it’s quite pleasant out there

Have a good day everyone

Met Office forecasting subzero and misty here during the early morning and as a result poor visibility.
Rather hazardous driving conditions

Keep safe peeps!

There's been bits of blue sky at times here, Slim so a bit of colour

Just been out whilst the temperature is above zero to refuel the car and to do some extra to try to keep the battery charged. Don't have a garage, so park on the forecourt, not great for batteries in this cold weather.

If the Met Office forecast is right I will postpone the shopping I normally do on Saturday mornings. Sub-zero temperatures and mist means trying to use windscreen wipers to clear the moisture caused by the mist won't work if the wipers are frozen

Met Office humidity during the earlier part of tomorrow morning locally is forecast at between 100% and 103%. That's known as supersaturation. There's so much moisture in the air that it can't hold any more.

Good morning everyone

Another very cold night, got down to -6° outside. Cold day struggling to get much over zero.
No obvious mist here but I'm postponing my shopping as there may be mist elsewhere,

There is a change in wind direction later today from north to south. Means that temperature tonight is expected to be closer to zero. Tomorrow forecast to be cold but not as cold as recently, Temperatures closer to normal by Monday.

I hope everyone has a good day

I think it takes a day longer to get warmer here, Slim, 5° tomorrow, 8° Monday

Walked to the small Co-op this morning to get some food in got today and tomorrow. No ice on the pavements other than a small dip which was clearly icy.

Mistier here than it had been with Met Office showing mist for the rest of the day and poor visibility. Temperature had got up to 2.6 but is steadily going down, 1.3 at present.
