Out of the Freezer and Into the Fridge

It goes without saying that Thursday was the coldest March day I've recorded since 2010. The lowest temperature was -5.4°C (22.3°F), the daytime high was -0.5°C (31.1°F) and the daily average -2.4°C or 27.7°F. It's our only "ice" March day when the temperature has remained below freezing all day.

I don't think our plants are enjoying the snow or the bitterly cold gale force winds.


I've now sorted out my February comparison tables.
Temperature & Rainfall Comparisons February 2010 - 2018
In summary a cold and dry February 2018. Hopefully March will be much better for getting on with some gardening jobs but it certainly hasn't got off to a very good start.
