Fair layer of snow on the ground by sunrise, and temperatures around freezing. As the sun gets to work, only the snow in the shade remains, indication of the cold weather. Maximum temps 5C today. I go to the shop for the usual and make supper. After nightfall, the mercury nosedives again. In the Indian Ocean, Dora hangs on as a tropical storm, and northern Australia copes with cyclone Nelson. A vet who worked on the turkey farm in Suffolk where 160,000 birds had to be culled because of bird flu falls ill, but not with that particular ailment. I noticed a large increase in attendance at my tropical cyclones blog, particularly from Mauritius and Bulgaria. I eked out the chappy from Bulgaria by inviting all readers to sign the guestbook. Mauritius is in the firing line from Dora, but she's too far away.

I'm glad I don't have to paddle for my dinner in the sea like the Heron.
ReplyDeleteThere's one photo there Guido, where a van is coming out of a side road onto the seafront road in the gloaming, there are lights reflected in the black ice sheet on the main road. Now that looks very cold! Super picture. Jeanie
