Saturday/Sunday night was again very cold – around minus 6/7 perhaps while on some nights this week the temperature has dropped to minus 12-13. Day-time temperatures haven't risen above freezing for a week. Some minor roads are still snow covered from Monday's snow fall. The sky is brilliantly blue and the countryside looks wonderful in the sunlight.
However, the cold's grip should start to loosen today. Daytime highs of 3˚C are forecast – lunch outside to celebrate perhaps? By Tuesday some light rain from the west is forecast with highs of 6˚C.
