Ayupmeducks 1,730 Posted December 2, 2015 Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 Days are starting to get cold, about average here for this time of year, sunny and 45F, so can't grumble...In a few short weeks we can expect very low temps, it can get to single digits F in January our coldest month.

mercurydancer 1,104 Posted December 4, 2015 Report Share Posted December 4, 2015 Its horrible here in the north east. There was a flood on the road to the pub, which meant I had to go to another pub but not my favourite. Stair rods for rain too. The wind is terrible. It has been howling with bins and bits of branches flying about. My heart goes out to compo on days like this. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ayupmeducks 1,730 Posted May 4, 2016 Report Share Posted May 4, 2016 Probably right Dave, but we don't usually get it as bad as Florida, we don't seem to get many 100F days now in summer, not that I'd complain about that!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Chulla 4,946 Posted May 5, 2016 Report Share Posted May 5, 2016 In Bulwell town, with aching feet, People fainting in the heat. Tar is melting on the road, Makes a change, it's usually cowd. Leenside joys for John and Sarah, Basking at the Notts Riviera, Families play beside the water, Mr, Mrs, son and daughter. Ice-cream sellers make a pile, So do pubs, the landlords smile. Making hay while it's so hot, Before the crowds back home do trot. All too soon, rains dogs and cats, It's back to normal, coats and hats. Put away the sunshine gear, Need again? praps next year. 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ayupmeducks 1,730 Posted May 5, 2016 Report Share Posted May 5, 2016 It's nice during the day here, mild and sunny, upper 60'sF to low 70'sF. I've been in shorts and tee shirts for a couple of weeks, but have to wear a sweater at night. Came close to lighting a fire a couple of evenings back. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MapperleyMan 122 Posted May 5, 2016 Report Share Posted May 5, 2016 The change in temperature interfered with my exercise routine this morning. Had the hot sun on my back and then full in my face as I ran up Somersby Road. Felt a bit faint at the top! Bloody sunshine! (Yes, I'm a typical pasty white Nottinghamian!)
