Today one minute I felt really warm in the bright warm sunshine , but if I walked a few Mtrs I felt chilled!!
My wife said she had felt the same where she was working.
Temp on my pickup said 10oC,but when I got out of truck it felt like 5oC,
was it extreme (Wind Chill)?? :scratchhead:

Agree, it was particularly cold in the west oxon Cotswolds too, hell of a frost again and less sun today and had left large amount of hair on the barber's floor on Tuesday so that could be a factor too !

Been working at Haverhill Suffolk/Cambridge last couple of days. Absolutely frozen stiff with coat and woolly hat on
Came home today to the ‘grim’ North to find warm sunshine and blue skys

I have never known an April like it where every night is well below freezing and the day time temperature briefly gets to 9'C by the middle of the day.
The air is just so cold and the wind comes off the North sea which is only around 7'C.
So much for global warming!!
