Anyone been outside yet?

Message withdrawn at poster's request.

-4 here but gorgeous. The little bit of snow last night seemed to freeze as it fell, so the pavements are a little crunchy but not slippy yet.

We have snow too but not a great deal. The sun is shining now.

Bright and cold here - been out to feed the birds, but ‘big coat’ weather later I think.

❄️ Snow here outskirts of Liverpool 3C no sun no wind.

Yes, but only to put out some bird pudding for the ground feeders and de-ice the bird baths.
Light frost but no wind. Sun trying to break through scattered cloud.

It's almost 10 am, and here in south west Northumberland it is -4°c. The cat wants to go out, but when he feels the chill on his nose he turns round and comes back in.

I had to drop a wheelie bin on its back to be able to open its lid. A screw driver or something would have worked against its frozen shutness but I didn't have one handy ❄️

-4 here still but sun is peeking through so hopefully will warm a little.

Wrapping up warm and out for a walk later when I believe it will be reaching a balmy 1 degree.

I absolutely take your point Aussie Gran, on balance whilst not enjoying cold weather as I've got older realise I can no longer stand extreme heat, 35 degrees in daytime sounds awful, sympathies.

Bright & frosty here in northern England. Still below freezing. I've brought in the bin and topped up the bird feeders & table. Also thawed their frozen drinking water; really important for the birds at all times, but especially in this weather.

My car is frozen up and the driveway slippery with snow.My plan for going into town are scuppered for now.

Don't need to - it's 2*C in my room as it is!

I think I must be hardened to the Scottish weather. It’s minus 2 here but because there is no snow and it’s sunny, I think it’s a rather nice day. 😂

It's very cold outside, but sunny. I'm not going out today, but that's largely because I got very little sleep last night and can't be bothered to do very much at all.

I usually go to my knitting group on Wednesdays, but I'll see if there's been more snow before deciding tomorrow. If it's icy I might stay indoors and knit here by myself

-4 in northwest Wiltshire, bright blue skies.
I took DDog for a walk earlier and surprisingly it was dry and not icy underfoot. There’s black ice on many roads around here so definitely not going anywhere in the car today.

It was -2 overnight and I've put a blanket over the car windscreen which I hope will be helpful when I eventually go out - but not today.

It's a balmy 1 degree now so I might venture out to the recycling bin - such excitement.

We walked for 75 minutes in a sunny 0 degrees . It was quite invigorating but I was glad to get home!

Have to go out again tonight for Bookclub - but it includes dinner and wine so that's OK

It's beautiful in our bit of Birmingham today. Cold but lovely and sunny. We walked to our local for lunch. They have a January sale on so a very cheap lunch.

Heavy snow here in North Wales now so glad I wasn't tempted out by the sunshine earlier.

It's lovely out here in Scotland. Bright sunshine, no wind to speak of, temperatures only just creeping above freezing. It's a welcome change after what feels like weeks of dreichness, but it does horrible things to my asthma.

Yes went outside but rushed back in - it’s 🥶

I live in Ontario and at this time of year we are usually in a deep freeze with loads of snow. Today it’s +6 c and no snow in sight, very strange but I like it.

blue sky and sunny here but so cold! ok, not freezing like some places but cold enough for me.some slippy frost here, DP had to go running out this morning as our postie had slipped and fallen over, our street is on an incline.Poor chap said he was ok but limped off.
