Cold again

After a couple of weeks of milder, almost spring-like conditions, we're back into winter again. There are 'severe' weather warnings out this week, for such things as heavy rain and even snow. Of course, 'severe' in Britain is a bit of a joke, but still, the prospect of significant snow at the end of March is rather unusual here. It remains to be seen what actually materializes, but certainly today is quite a bit colder than it's been for a while, with the temperature barely edging above 5 C.
