Cool My turn to say Woo-hoo, it's snowing - but in LISBON!

Somewhere between sleet and snow, with a few very definite flurries of the latter! My Oregon Scientific **** Weather Guage (I just mean it's accurate, I don't stick my backside out of the window) says pressure has dropped as low as 998mb before now rising to 1001 (lowest I've seen it is 1006 before this) and outside temp is 3.7C at about 15.30 - I haven't seen it lower than 4.7C, and that was at 8am!

No chance of any settling, for the past 24h it's been bucketing down, but blimey...

All sounds great until I realise my house pipes aren't lagged

Well bollix to the lot of you , just seen the news and that's the first time in 52 years that Lisbon has seen snow

It's now a cloudless night, temp is at 1.6C, I've thrown some old jumpers and blankets over the outside taps, and I'm going to bed with the heating on all night

Hmmm, chilly. As you are thin on replies, here's mine! It's 88f here in Texas, bright sunshine, very odd as it's my first "winter" in summer holiday temperatures! Waiting for the air-con to get going at the moment!

-3 degrees C in Alcoi. Mains water froze up too

Glad we have propane and not Butane ....although not much use when the taps don't work, still have bottled water and a kettle though

Worry not, Brendan!

You have already trounced Wurzels attempt and he is quite the established 'snow celebrity' round these parts!
