Everything quiet and grey with rolled stratocumuli.

Triffic weather today - massively windy in the morning, gusting Force 8 I reckoned (61mph according to the telly), then about 1pm it pissed down with rain, cleared up very quickly. By 9pm, the pressure had risen from 1004 to 1029 mb - 25 mb rise. A cold front passing over, as I guessed at the time and as the telly confirmed.

Dark and grey and windy.

Weather like yesterday, but clearer during the day. In the evening, very thin high cloud with a near-full moon and strong West wind.

A pleasant dark grey and windy day. In the evening the weather had cleared and a nearly-full Moon was shining brightly; it was still windy though.

Heavy shower of rain in the evening.

In the evening went for a walk in freezing fog.

December 14th. To town, in awful cold and well thick fog.

December 15th. Frost all over the trees - very beautiful.

'..the severe freezing fogs of the second week.' [...]

Very cold and frosty, but hazily clear.

Weather very cold at the moment - heavy frosts. Had the heating on all day today.

Cold, clear, frosty morning.

Ten years (I think) since that fall of snow in 1981. Very cold and grey today. Sun came out in the afternoon, though, and it was very clear and starry in the evening.

Beautiful cold frosty sunny morning.

Dull, responsible day - but at least the Sun came out.

Hope this anticyclonal gloom (actual and figurative) dissipates soon.

'Very dry and anticyclonic.' [...]

December 15th. The pressure has dropped to 1024 mb and it looks like the anticyclone which has been here for 2 weeks is finally moving away.

Very depressing day. Dismal grey weather. Cold, raw, Decembral, grey.

(12.39am). Just listened to Bill Giles doing the Radio 4 weather. He sounded very distressed, as if he was about to cry.
