Today is Winter. We don't have seasons, we have two-three days of one sort of weather then two-three days of something else - the delights of living on an island?
Yesterday was mild but I doubt it reached predicted the high of 7°C - not here anyway. Last night, a NW wind has brought in much colder air. And it was clear so heavy frost. My morning walk felt flippin' cold, definitely below zero, frozen puddles, ice on the roads. Now, it's nearly 3 in the afternoon, frost in the back garden hasn't melted, snow on the Eildon Hills still lying above about 1000', feels chilly cold when you step outside and when the breeze picks up the cold seems to pass straight through you. That's why I'm calling it Winter.

So far, everything forecast the last few days has been accurate.
