The Weather.

In the East Midlands where my family live, they have an amber alert due to heavy snow.

I hope they don't need to go out today. When I lived in the Midlands it snowed quite a lot, I remember there being heavy snow in 1995.

It was so cold yesterday, I couldn't warm up even with the heating on full blast. I was wearing three layers with a poncho and a scarf indoors at one point.:D

They live about 15 mins from Bicester which is in Oxfordshire. I suppose that they are at home and if they do need to go out to shop, Waitrose is only across the road and 4 minutes by foot.
 
This will likely change as it’s days away, but holy poop, way to ruin Christmas. Starts 12/23 day with one inch then goes on from there.

The snow has melted already.:rolleyes: There is sleet at the moment and it is still very cold. The postman had to knock at my door to give me a parcel to sign for. I said "I feel sorry for you doing this job today in this weather" poor guy, he looked freezing!
 
I had to scrape frost off my car windows this morning! It was about 35 degrees! It is now 53 with bright blue sunny skies. It looks beautiful but that air is COLD!
 
Our car wouldn't start at first this morning. We were up early so Jen could take me to the coach station. Fortunately, it wasn't her first winter's morning, and after some persuasion, the car finally coughed out whatever was preventing it from getting the engine going, and we were off.
 
It's really icy out today. I went out to take my dog for a walk last night and it was so cold I had to go back home almost straight away!

Greater London
  1. Yellow warning of ice
    Ice is expected to form on some surfaces from late Monday afternoon and last overnight into Tuesday morning. There will probably be icy stretches on untreated roads, pavements and cycle paths with some injuries possible from slips and falls.
 
Another cold morning here though a few degrees warmer than yesterday. Will warm up nicely but get cold again overnight and be 10 degrees colder tomorrow. I hate winter! I know... Floridians shouldn't complain. :D
 
We humans are complainers by nature, lol. I’m quite happy with the colder temps...I really need mid to upper thirties to be happy during the Winter. I don’t mind a 40+ degree day, here and there, but when it starts to hit 48 I start to twitch and get very nervous, lol. I hope the cooler temps can hold until Christmas. I won’t mind if we get some warmer days thrown in between after that, but I’m still hoping for a mostly cold and snowy season. *fingers crossed*

Boo for the holiday weekend forecast. :(

Agree. The wintry mix tomorrow forced the cancellation of holiday plans tomorrow night. I think we are getting all rain on Saturday. Blah, but at least I can drive in that. I loathe driving when there is freezing rain or sleet.
