So whos getting lots of snow, and who's out in it?

[Woody girl]

Amber flood alerts now, with more rain to come tonight and tomorrow.
I'm sick of all this rain. Don't particularly welcome snow, but it would at least be a welcome change.

Snow came around New Year, but nothing yesterday or today. Has been very cold though. Our Tibetan Terrier loves it although doesn’t know not to stand on ice over a moving stream. Fortunately she’s very light and has massive paws for her size, so no harm done.

I thought it was Sweden but the lakes make more sense now. I went through Finland once in my van from North of Sweden on then down through Estonia and a 26 country tour finishing up in Spain. it was brilliant. Finland was great. It was in November so pretty cold I remember. x

10 hours of steady drizzly rain, and the snow aint moved. Expect its slushy underneath. Proper wet stuff. Cats wont go out, not having none of it. Our oldest cat, who wont use a litter tray, (literally never has in 9 years) just used the litter tray after asking to go out several times. Not good weather for cats this.

I was going to test the plush palatka in the garden but my cats talked me out of it.

They looked at the rain and nope instead of meow.

Jackets on the mini beasts.

Ah, quite near the Parola tankmuseum.

About 70km to the west of me, straight as birds fly.

Alpaca, Huacaya allegedly. My attempts at spinning the fleece have not been successful so far but it does make very warm bedding!

Did someone say tank museum? Happy days!

A day not looking at a tank is a day wasted (quoting from the troop leader QRIHs)

Ankle deep in slush only on Saturday, like other posts above.

 

[Laurentius]

A slight fall of snow, but overnight the river reached it's highest recorded level ever, higher than last January which was the highest since 2012.

In the low-lying SW part of the Manchester conurbation we had a layer of melting slush on Sunday morning. There was a dusting of slush on Monday morning that disappeared during the day and a thicker dusting of slush on Tuesday morning.

I managed to get out for a short Monday lunchtime walk in snow on the hills during near where I work. It was above freezing, so it was slushy.

-3C, +15cm of lose, powdery snow and high winds... I am in, out of it!!
Plus another 20cm predicted until saturday, but then the winds die down.
