My husband had casually dropped it in to the conversation tonight that on Christmas eve when it's due to be 5°C in the morning, he appreciate the bedroom window being closed.

I think he might be trying to tell me something...

Yes he’s worried about Santa being able to get in with his stocking.

How’re you feeling?

It’s been pretty mild so far - surprisingly, I really haven’t had much congestion at all. Sore throat, cough, and a headache yesterday. I’ve also been sleeping a lot, but I don’t know if that’s from the covid, finally getting a break from work (I’m off for the next 2 weeks), or the medications I’m taking.

I am feeling better so today so fingers crossed I recover quickly!

The original forecast stated between 5 and 8 °C for this morning.

2°C was a bit of a surprise. That's

That's toasty for sure. In Nevada when it was above 43°C I didn't want to know...

It rained last night.
I may have to find a jersey as the temperature is currently below 30 oC

In the interests of “hands across the sea” here’s ours in fahrenheit
Which I had to look up how to spell because I was so out even autocorrect didn’t know what I was on about

 

[SatNavSaysStraightOn]

After a 2°C start today, and it not getting above 22°C, tonight is currently still 16°C.

We're forecast 34°C tomorrow and 38°C on St Stephen's Day. It may however fall as low as 7°C tonight.

We're not cooked lunch, not put up the tree and generally not really felt like Christmas.
Let's see what tomorrow brings (and why does predictive text always come up with gonorrhoea instead of tomorrow?)

Not expecting any strange weather for the next week or so. Once the rainy season ends at the end of November, temperatures drop a bit and there might be a spot of drizzle here and there, but basically no rain until May.

 

[badjak]

Our rains are just starting.
Not a drop after April/May

oh, I like that BBC layout - much better than the typical columnar day-by-day.
