Christmas Day and almost a thaw!

Christmas Day got off to a cold start minus 4.5°C but that was pretty mild compared to some spots in the Midlands. Strange how such a cold temperature doesn’t seem so bad after recent much colder nights. There was a little bit of sunshine and the temperature crept up to 2.6°C rather mild for the moment. The last 2 days have seen the rain gauge record 0.2mm of precipitation which must have been snow thawing in the rain gauge.

The slightly milder temperatures have not made any impression on the ice covering our pond. The ice appears thicker and almost covers the entire pond.
