We're moving onto a small acre of land with a house in the middle, surrounded by fields. Cabbage and wheat I think.
Please excuse my uneducated stance and questions but I'm struggling to get info from the local famers.
Lived in the area for 17 years but this new house is just outside...

I just can’t see it happening,in fact if anything if the cold fresh water from the pole sinks southward through the Gulf Stream disrupting it then we could end up being cooler.
Anyone got a recommendation for a wireless thermometer? Not really looking for a fancy weather station, just a thermometer that I can get far enough away from the house to give a decent reading, with a display inside the house. The last one I had kept disconnecting and was more trouble than it...
