Overcast and maybe -4C but for the 3rd day in a row, almost no wind at all. It's a relief.
Plenty of snomobile traffic up top now that the cold is gone.

I went a bit mental with budgeting over the last year or so as I moved into a new house with gas central heating which is new to me and cost more than I thought, as part of that I've recorded the tempreature on and off. Apparently the average temp for January [NE Scotland] is 5.5 degress [forgot where I found that.], last year it was 2.9 deg, this year 4.4 deg. So warmer than last year but still colder than 'average'
Its 3oc here, i would say that i'm really missing the snow but having the flu at the moment i'm kind of glad i don't need to scrape a car or grit a road.
I'm more annoyed that the big down parka i bought summer last year is still in the box unused.
There's nothing more demoralising and dangerous than cold "damp" weather however, stay safe out there people.

I know how you feel Tone, i'm full of flu, feel as "rough as a badger".
I've even had my yearly October flu jab, but still caught it!
Was out earlier, absolutely baltic out there, must be -4*c in that wind chill, but warming up again by the weekend. Typical!
