Had an email from emergency planning officer today and it'll be a lot colder than that around here mate. The authorities have been caught with their pants down big time. We are running out of salt and energy supplies in this country.

Just been out for a walk with the mutt... reading -6 in the car... supposed top get down to -11

Apparently grit only works down to -6.... lucky Calderdale Council has basically run out and is only gritting 20% of roads then!!!! :doh

 

[Thomas-the-Terrano2]

grit, works ok but isnt substitute for driving skills, didnt realise lower limit
but folks manage in canada to -40 or so without still you do get used to
it eventually.

I'm sweating like a pig! After last nights -17C its a tropical -3C at the moment.

If you want to check your locality go to this link and select your region and nearest town in the dropdown lists under the map, or stick your postcode in....then when its showing your local forecast, just above, under the map, you'll see a link to "Nearest Observation Site"...click on that and it will give you temp, rainfall etc for that location for the last seven hours......

Looks like I might have to go to work tomorrow

-6 in Co Waterford when leaving for work this morning. Was in Co. Limerick yesterday and had +5 degrees and sunny for the afternoon. See some council lads out with that white salt stuff throwing it out with shovels, must be the stuff imported from Spain. Great stuff that. Pity they only had enough for about three days.

 

[vatco]

Oficial here was -6 but next the the airbase we recorded -8 @ 2.30am
