I didn't stand here for too long ... a dull cold day and feeling very like winter!

We got a bunch of snow dumped on us overnight. It was apparently a little over a foot. I usually hate the snow because I'm not a fan of the cold, but it is really pretty, and looks quite nice in pictures. I'd still take a beach and palm trees over it though! Thanks for lookin', and have a great day!

Last Thursday in Manchester, five cars were stolen from outside the owner's house because the owner left the engine running to warm it up on a cold morning, leaving the car unlocked and unattended, with the key in the ignition. The next day another six were taken.
And I bet another batch went today. Funniest of all is that it's actually illegal to leave an unattended car with the engine running, so the stolen car won't be covered by
insurance!

What this certificate doesn't show is that on January 4 the temperature was 40 degrees above zero and it was raining! The rain continued as the temperature dropped inexorably below zero. Consequently there was a 1/2 inch of ice on everything, including roadways. That ice didn't yield until the thermometer climbed above freezing. Cars went into the ditch at 25 mph!
For any of my Flickr friends who have been shivering in the cold and snow! Historical information! You are not alone!
An hour is not nearly enough time to spend between here and there. Too many things to stop and take pictures of....
Temp 70° wind out of north at about 25mph 1 minute later
within 5 minutes temp dropped to 62 with heavy rain
They don't grow well in this cold part of Surrey. Better in the Scilly Isles even though I have heard a garden guru tell us that they're becoming common in England due to global warming. Well. I've had these for 5 years now, overwintered them in the porch when they tend to look rather ropey. This is the first year that the purple and orange ones have bloomed but well worth the wait-I think. The purple came into flower the morning that we went away.
