All this talk of temperatures has promted me to put my el-cheapo maximum minimum thermometer within binocular view of my living room window. I think I may have to keep my eye on the Maplins sale for a weather station...
Woke up this morning to the lightest of dustings of snow - someone with bad dandruff could have had more of an imapct... It's been lovely blue skies all day and nightfall is just as clear. I think i'll give it another several hours then will have a go at imagaing the moon and mars with my ETX90, see what captures I can grab...
Tomorrow is the first day back at work (school) for me
and I have the pleasure of a whole days teacher training on how to use Photoshop - the fact that I already use Photoshop and feel quite competent with it seems to have no bearing - you WILL do this training... Oh well, so be it, i'll just use my own data (read mars and moon) to demonstrate my competency
I'm hoping, reading the updates and looking at this weeks synoptic charts, that the front coming down late monday night / tuesday morning will be kind enough to deposit a dollop of snow over us in the west midlands, we seem to have escaped so far this winter. Unless the forecast detail changes, for me, I think this is the best hope for snow. I suspect later in the week wintry showers will be confined to coastal regions.
