It's turned to sleet now, so it's just grey and wet, typical March weather for Aberdeen!

The weather's gone mad. Snowing here too...

Yes I picked this up from the BBC news:
Snowstorms have caused transport chaos around the Greek capital Athens, with one overnight traffic jam stretching for up to 15km (9 miles).
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-12674491

Yeah, it really makes me angry. National road was closed down by a couple of snowflakes... I picked this up from the above link:
"The snow that closed down the road at Malakasa was comparatively light and Transport Minister Dimitris Reppas accused the consortium that manages it, Nea Odos, of failing to do its job properly"
New interpretative Greek dictionary describes the word as this: "Malakas= the, adjective: the greek driver, who pays the most expensive toll rates universally"

BTW, sunny, calm and 20oC... here we go again... mackinaws: back to the attic  :rolleyes:

For the last fortnight it has been glorious here, 14-18C during the day dropping to about 7C at night.  Bright sunshine with the occasional heavy rain cloud emptying it's contents then the sun dries it all out again :goodjob: :goodjob:

We've had Frost, Rain, Wind and even when it has been sunny only up to 12 or 13c  :confused:

Bright warm sun for an hour, then drizzly rain for an hour.

Repeat at will :rolleyes:

I wonder whether there was snow about this morning on my way to work.

Driving towards me was a big and I say big, yellow snow plough with its plough just hoovering above the tar mac..................
