What's the temperature where you are???

Sunday 11th of January 11.38a.m. Overcast and cool after the 41C / 105F roasting yest. The chickens looked forward to my visits with the chilled water refills and frozen corn and peas. By 7.30p.m. the Southerly blast came through dumping temps to 25C / 77F within about an hour.

21C / 69.8F today.
 
4C, "feels like" -14 (39 / 7F). Wind 40mph with gusts up to 55 now and 60 expected later this morning.

Still dark here but I expect the mixed rain and snow will be coming in uphill when I get out to the chickens.
Grey.... hahahaha that is a great discription. That would be a lot of snow for you, does the ocean freeze over near you or do you get icebergs like we do in Newfoundland?
We have lots of words in Scots, and in the local dialects, to describe different types of grey and wet and windy. I expect Newfoundland is probably the same? And may even shares some of our words. No icebergs here though! It's warmed up in the last few days, so the snow is mostly melted now and everything is wet again. This week's shipping forecast has the sea at 8-9C (46-48F).

Oh of course the North Atlantic Current modulates the weather in Northern Europe I had just read about this. Yea Newfoundland also has various descriptions for the weather. My grandmother would call a storm a ‘Dwy’ not sure of spelling there, an moist humid weather would be ‘right mauzy’
