Regrettably, I'll be in shorts. Having been the first one at work to start wearing them this year, I have been bet that I won't wear them everyday until 31st October. I won't let a bit of hypothermia get in the way  Thumbs:

JFC! eeek:

WHAT a trip up 'me 'ill' that was this avvy! eeek:

Bloody unbelievably cold, cold as I've ever known it tbh, mainly down to the virtually storm force wind.
It was the wind that caused the pain of small shrouds of thin 6"ice particles that had been formed on the tree branches, that were flying off at incredible speed, and battering the blazes out of me and the few others that were up there. eeek:
Bloody painful in the face.

Never experienced that before.

Anyways. WTF happened to this new Beast From the East the press were getting all overly excited about last week?
S'pose to be the coldest and snowiest it's been all winter according to their predictions. Shrugs:

What a bunch of tossers.


Hardly a beast, but according to the forecast I received at 0600hr's we're supposed to be getting a dusting today...

Quote
Rather cloudy, but turning increasingly colder through the afternoon with outbreaks of sleet at times. Sleet turning to wet snow across northeastern parts [of me area] by 1500 and elsewhere by 1800. Snow will continue through the night, turning more persistent and heavy at times across southern parts [of me area] between 0200 and 0600. Accumulations of 0-2cm are expected across low levels, with 2-4cm possible across higher ground, mainly in the south.

Snow Summary
Sleet and wet snow will give accumulations of 0-2cm quite widely, with 2-5cm possible over 150m, mainly in the south.

Not a flake here, not a single flake  ::)  Even the 1800hr's update said expect accumulations from 2100hr's. How can they be so wrong three hours in front of the weather  ::)  ::)  ::)

Beast from the East  ::)

Meanwhile, gloriously sunny here in Growlershire.
Slightly nippy breeze, but generally gorjus. cloud9:
