The Weather Thread

Good mate. Kids out with the sledges today. Been brilliant.
According to the weather forecast we are due for rain for the rest of the year, what joy.
That's the price we pay for a return to westerly flow I'm afraid. On the plus side, it will bring an airmass around 10-12 deg C warmer than we have now.
Rain means it will be warmer so less chance of frost bite due to being on heating rations.
-4 and -5 the last couple days, although we had snow on Monday.
Our response? Break out the skiing gear (thermal base layers, fleece midlayers, thick jackets and trousers, proper gloves and hats), get the wife's car booked in to change over to her winter tyres (mine runs on all-season rubber so doesn't need to change) and spread a load of salt over the front path and driveway. Then carry on as normal.
Seriously cannot fathom why people find it so difficult to work out what to do when the weather gets chilly. I get that some have different finances, but surely choosing to drive on summer tyres when it gets below 5c is a false economy, especially when you crash and damage your car, or get stranded and have to pay out hundreds for emergency accommodation or alternative travel?

Thank you cyclists for not polluting our air with toxic fumes even when it's cold...
We should give them a medal for being so considerate
In all my years of driving I have never once thought "I wish I had winter tyres", just drive carefully innit.

Depends if you have front wheel drive of not. A merc or BMW are death traps without them

(I did actually crash that, it was a hire van and I went into a car park overhead barrier cos I misread its height)
