No let up

Tuesday was another cold sunny day. The pond continues to be mostly frozen over but the filter inlet remains ice free. The ice formation around the inlet gets bigger by the day.
From 03 Weather 2010
Ten of the last 11 days have had an average daily temperature below freezing. For comparison last winter we had 13 days below freezing. Unless the rest of winter is mild we could well beat last year for cold days.

If the week end turns out to be mild (a tropical 5°C is forecast) it will be an opportunity to visit the plot and see if our straw protection over our carrot has worked. If not I might well be digging up yellow mush!
