Frosted Earth

Thursday 21st February  2019. 

Still mild and it will stay dry.

Rather cloudy AM but there should be some bright or sunny intervals PM. Mild at 11C to 13C in light south west winds. Frontal systems will be held at bay by a large area of high- pressure over the Continent. Overnight rather misty and murky with some fog patches but we should be frost- free. Min of 4C to 6C.  And tomorrow will bring dry conditions with the weather systems still deflected away from us with high pressure to the east keeping our region dry and mild. Watch out for some mist and fog during the morning clearing by late morning. Sunny intervals PM. A dry Weekend is expected.

Issue 1 came out in 1998. See below for the latest front cover of issue 39-The Singing Ringing Tree, a sculpture that reacts to the wind.

Weather eye makes a good present - why not send a gift pack to any interested friend or relative for a birthday.  

Frosted Earth has now moved to Storrington in Sussex which is why the site had not been updated so frequently but should be better now. It was a very hectic time for us. Weather eye issue 39 has been delayed but I am now working on it and it is now complete.Just finalising the proof and it will be printed. Note the change of cover. The Weather station in Coulsdon has shut down after 39 years of recording but Chipstead Valley will continue. A new station has now been set up at Storrington in West Sussex. Subscribers will receive more details soon. Phone number is now 01903 741478.

Ian's eye on the Weather. A daily chat for the 21st Feb 2019.

Tuesday there were bathers in the sea on the Sussex coast yet at the same latitude on the eastern seaboard of Canada it was minus 25C!
The 928 thickness line is generally regarded as being a guide to snow possible in any precipitation rather than rain will be almost at latitude 35 degrees north ih in the western Atlantic, the same latitude as Morocco or Tunisia. Yet in our part of the world you will have to venture north to Spitzbergen latitude 78 degrees north to reach it on Friday!
