Re: Winter weather 2016-2017
No snow, nor frost here this weekend.
We've just come back from dinner. I didn't need a coat, or a sweater, or even a long sleeved shirt - I was just wearing a lightweight madras shirt.

I want my kid to go back to school. It's been a week now. Today no school because of rain. Makes a change from no school because of snow and ice.

The arctic air has moved away, and tropical air and rain has moved in but still chilly at low 40's, but better then most of the last month of spending below 32F.

Re: Winter weather 2016-2017
Ten-twelve days ago the temperatures didn't get above freezing, we had ice and snow storms, and we opened the blinds to get as much warmth as possible from the sun.
Today it's 70°F, I have been wearing shorts and a T-shirt, we kept the blinds closed to avoid needing to run the AC, and our neighbour was outside this afternoon mowing the grass!

Re: Winter weather 2016-2017
Winter happened down South this year on the evening of the 8th January and we had the slightest of frosts on the morning of the 9th. I wore trousers to work (and got horribly sweaty).
I believe Winter came early this year as I recall it being on 10th February last year.
