Ah just a brief blow by the Atlantic before the real Snowy fun starts later in the month.

Although I can never understand how anyone prefers mild and wet weather to a nice crisp sunny cold day like today.

You would want to see where I live, narrow old country lane but if you drive in accordance to road conditions there is no problem.

I'd take a bit of Ice over flooded roads any day

My road looked like a glacier had formed last month, thank God global warming is melting glaciers

I am sure we had one January where the temperature got close to 16C.

Oh...really looking forward to spring and the mild weather, the cold can feck off then till the winter....not the autumn.

I don't mind the snow that is coming tomorrow, it is not from the east which is the worst direction, or best depending on opinion.
I like how it looks falling but life is far easier in milder weather. I like life being easier...

I say bring it on. I care not whether it is mild or not as long as the sky roars. Really getting pig sick of this non-descript, empty weather since Christmas.

Bring on the mild south westerlies... Anything but snow for the next decade at least.

Ah the rain, the reservoirs probably need it.

Looks like it could get slightly exciting on Saturday.
