Has the weather hit anyone yet? Had been raining here for a while and the football crowds were coming past the house, ûI was thinking it wouldn't be very pleasant if the temp fell and roads froze - thinking that (about freezing) I went to get the pump out of the pond. Outside for 5 minutes and the rain has definitely turned snow - cars in the street at the front of the house are already coated! (Approx 5.30 pm)

Across the pond weather report, location, two hours drive south from New York City. It has been unusually warm. Christmas eve night it was 54 F ( 12.22 C). While taking one of my dogs out for a night walk I nearly stepped on a frog who was on my patio looking for a winter snack, I suppose. I also see that some of my daffoldil bulbs have poked their way out too. In my shed I have a two gal container of gas waiting to fill my empty snowblower tank and I hope that condition continues to remain the same till spring. As far as the pumps in my ponds they are still running with no reason to turn them off so far and I can see my fish occasionly feeding on what food source is growing along the sides of the pond walls.

We had a couple of inches,Pam,it's the Ice that's more of a problem..we are at the bottom of a slope,so no way will we try to get to the main road,unless it thaws by lunchtime..Still got plenty of food left..no worries :o) x

Well, it came to nothing afterall, here! Really expected to wake up to several inches of the white stuff - no excuse not to go into town now (coffee with a friend during the sales - what was I thinking???)

In London, we had tons of lashing rain and horrendous gale force gusts of wind during the night, had to close the window on the north side because the wind was banging it back and forwards. No sign of the white stuff... but my sister to the west of Manchester has snow.

Its not going very quickly despite the bright sun, very crunchy underfoot, clouding over now.....hope we don't get any more.

First snow here overnight last night and a very heavy frost - looks beautiful with sunshine and blue sky. Our son's car took 10 minutes to thaw, but a good clear day for his drive back to Cornwall.

Heavy rain here. Has been all day ...
