+1oC here today, which is unusually cold for us and we've had sleet and snow. Maybe we will get that cold winter that has been predicted after all? Hopefully it will kill off any pests and trigger germination of some seeds that like a chilling!

Had a couple of nights down to minus 8 degrees C here in Aberdeen - perhaps autumn is gone and winter arrives?  Found these super photos, via NASA,  of the  view from Space of Scotland this week

Spectacular images Maggi. Hard to say sometimes when the autumn's gone.
First real snow (not just some flurries) supposed to arrive in our region tonight, so tomorrow I'll start calling it winter :D

Maggi, which NASA site did you use for the satellite images?
