Thick fog today. The good news, it'll turn to mist later  :confused: the bad news, the mist will turn to rain, which will then become heavy rain  :wacko:

Winter was 1st of June Dave  :D (21st is shortest day i think .. without checking) It usually gets colder after that date "as the days lengthen the cold strengthens as they say" ....

I agree with that statement, but it is illogical. Longer days should = warmer. I dislike Spring more than Winter. Spring brings on frosts and wind which is my biggest hate. A lot of the flowers on my fruit trees get blown off too.  :fum:

There are about 2 to 3 weeks here in Autumn when everything is perfect, no wind, balmy sunny days, cool nights and Autumn colours on the trees, pity I know Winter / Spring follows.  :mrgreen:
