ALL IN ONE.

This blog is all about the weather here in Teignmouth. During the last 8 to 10 days we have had it all, a few really bright, sunny but Crisp days, like the ones in this photo, showing the sea front and the railway line Teignmouth to Exeter taken last week. I have almost the same view taken just last Sunday in force 7, gusting 8 gale.
Below, this picture was taken from my bedroom window lasr Friday morning, quite a change for us to get White frosts like this, perhaps 6 or 7 most years.
The picture below is the of the same view as the first picture.This one again taken during our recent Gales.
Below, Just a sprinkling of snow this evening (Monday) on my front garden.
The picture below is a view from my bedroom window looking toward the Sea front. Just enough Snow to show that Winter is here.

Below are a few video's. This first one was taken from the car on Teignmouth's Point car park.Just look at those waves washing across the park and cars !!!.

This Video shows the small (Rubber) inshore Lifeboat practising in the rough sea's, the people in the wet gear are also lifeboat crew, they have to practise in bad weather to make sure men and machine are up to the job.


Are these people (in cars) and a few more mad?. Certalinly not good for a car, all this Salt water!!!.

Joke of the day.

Granma

I was out walking with my 4-year-old granddaughter. She picked up something from the ground and started to put it in her mouth. I took the item away from her and I asked her not to do that.
"Why?" my granddaughter asked. "Because it's been on the ground; you don't know where it's been, it's dirty, and probably has germs," I replied. At this point, my granddaughter looked at me with total admiration and asked, "Grandma, how do you know all this stuff? You are so smart." I was thinking quickly. "All Grandmas know this stuff. It's on the Grandma test. You have to know it, or they don't let you be a Grandma." We walked along in silence for 2 or 3 minutes, but she was evidently pondering this new information. "Oh.....I get it!" she beamed, "So if you don't pass the test you have to be the Grandpa." "Exactly," I replied with a big smile on my face.

I heard all about your snow today, London has ground to a complete halt according to the news!
I remember living in UK when there was only 1/2 inch of snow, nobody could go anywhere or do anything. The pictures of your roofs covered with snow are lovely.
