    Very mild here today ( 12c ) and the fields are lovely and green and grass is still growing.
    Soil temperatures were 6.8c in Johnstown castle yesterday.
    It's been the best autumn I can remember for grass growing and good ground conditions.
    Hopefully it stays this way. The cows will be starting to calve in a few weeks.
    It would be nice to be able to let them out straight after calving for a bite.
    Be great to have some pictures of cows out grazing on the 15th Jan.
    I must grease up the Fertiliser spreader.

    (Hopefully I haven't jinxed it).

    Bright, dry morning here. A bit of a nip in the air but a very nice day.

    There was a lot of water here the last few days and a lot of pools of water in the fields.

    I went for a walk around the land this morning to get some fresh air in the lungs.

    Still can't get over how good the land and grass is for the time of year. Another time the grass would be yellow.

    The forecast is giving a 50/50 chance of colder weather for next week. While I like cold weather sometimes. This time of year your attention would be on preparing for turnout and getting wire and fences right before calving starts. So I hope it doesn't materialize.

    Powerful morning here. Woeful mild last night replaced by a frost around daybreak. Talk of a nice frost tonight.

    Was heading home from a family do at my Mam's house last night 1.30 and the roads were dodgy. The gritters must have been out before dawn as you could see the grit on the road when I left to head to Longford.
    Beautiful day here and it was bright until nearly 5pm. Looks like a frosty night with clear skies.

    Brace yourselves!
    Jan 1 to 3 will be bitter cold with a chance of snow in coastal counties then benign weather for the rest of the week

    The following weekend looks now increasingly even colder with more widespread wintry/snow showers

    As for January,a day or two ago,I summarised my thoughts HERE

    Since I posted that the usual indicators for very cold weather have got stronger not weaker
    There's a frightening amount of very bitter cold up to our north and east and with high pressure in the Atlantic,the risk of weather drifting in from the east or North is higher and if it comes,you'll know all about it
    So be prepared,if it happens
    Hopefully not!!

    14 degrees at 1pm on 30th December. There's something seriously wrong there

    FYP.:)

    Grass is still growing here and soil temperature has increased as well.
    Soil temp is 7c at Johnstown castle and 8.6c in belmullet, Co.Mayo.

    Looks like rain New Years Eve night/New Years morning and then a brief 2 day cold spell.
    This apocalyptic cold spell for January looks like being pushed back further into the future. But the weather is going to cool down from what it is here now but nothing serious yet (can change of course).

    Someone must be praying.:D

    The southern versions are utterly rip offs and a lot less stronger than the northern/UK own brands. I always stock up afew boxes of them, and other over the counter medicines when I'm in the UK.
