Default [WR] Tideswell - 67.5 hours of continuous frost


The temperature here rose to 0.0C at 1100z bringing to an end a period of 67.5
hours of continuous frost. Currently (1215z) it is 0.2C. 12cm of snow on the
ground. A very slight thaw has now started.

Would have been the same here but the last two days as seen the
temperature briefly rise to 0.5c on both days.
Today we have a marked rise it's now up to 1.8c and rising and a slight
thaw as set in.
At least the sun as broken through the cloud, nice day now as the wind
as eased a lot.

Weston Coyney weather station (North Staffordshire) 220 metres asl

Could be a close call for us tomorrow Norman!

We may get loads of snow or very little, time will tell!
