We got a little snow last evening, but it had turned to rain by the time I went to bed. Still raining - weather forecast back on track. |

Last nights snow is gone (except on the rooftops) but when I got home today, blooming yellow forsythia greeted me! | This user groans at curley for this post: | |

A bit murky and grey today - a little drizzle even, and much warmer.
Give bright sunny dry cold any day.

While I like being unvoncentional - how will I know I am if the environment doesn't give me a steady frame of comparison? |

What a gorgeous day for the last day of the year.  Lovely sunshine and quite warm. Sunset is glorious again, beautiful.
Forecast is back to rain/snow for the rest of the week, but at least we've ended 2017 with a wonderful sunny day.

Daughter #2 saw a tree coming down between our village and the next whilst on the train this morning. Wind really howling around the office at the moment  .

It's getting worse in Basel.
The builder's portaloo up the road has gone over. That'll be pleasant to right.

Windy most of the night and has gotten stronger since this morning. Keeping all shutters closed today so have to keep peeking out to see what the weather's doing besides blowing a gale.

We've lost some roof ridge tiles.
Now I'm not really not convinced that the last company that took them off (two years ago) did a very good job as it's not amazingly windy here.
It's just starting pouring down with rain so that doesn't help either.

Lashing down here as well. Wind is subsiding though.
