Cold last night

[rustylady]

Well, I thought it felt a bit nippy last night when I got in from work and the thermometer in the garden has just confirmed it. Minimum temp was 5 degrees, coldest so far. Anyone actually had frost yet?

we were forecast 2 last night, not sure how cold it got because I have just surfaced from under my very warm quilt I did fleece my Christmas spuds just in case though

[zazen999]

We were also forecast 2, but I'd fleeced everything a week or so ago as I didn't fancy having to nip out late when it was forecast and try fleecing in the dark.

No frost yet and hopefully not for a little bit. But it has been cold the last two nights, minimum temp has been 4.3, so a definite nip in the air.

No known frost here yet,although the other morning when I did the chooks,the dew looked almost frostlike and there was a definite nip in the air!
Don't know about fleecing my spuds,but I had two on me last night whilst watching telly!

Sharp frost here on Wednesday and Thursday. -5 and -8
Just as well I bought in the chilli plants and took geranium and fuschia cuttings on Tuesday It killed what was left of the tomatoes and made a mess of the kiwi and figs.
Hey-ho, at least it'll kill the bugs

seems it went down to 0 in the greenhouse but there was no sign of frost outside

sharp frost this morning, got to start wrapping the tree ferns up now xxx

Guess I was lucky then, everything here looks fine. At least after the recent rain, the lawn is a bit greener, and the trees are starting to colour instead of dropping dry crispy brown leaves.

We had frost here over a week ago, got down to 1c in the greenhouse, and I have the (gas) heater on in there! I guess I didn't turn it up enough

First frost was about 3 weeks ago, no surprise being this far north. First (light) snowfall was two weeks ago today.

we had a frost two nights ago - finished off the nasturtiums, courgettes, pepppers and tomatoes -but during the day its still warm - 21 on our terrace this afternoon.....

Just been down to the lottie and frost has knocked down my butternut squash plants (they were still flowering) and my basil plants - everything else looks definitely autumnal. I'm just that bit far out of London to keep frost free.

5 degrees again last night. Cut the last of the tomatoes before we get a real frost.

No traces of frost here. Its definately getting chillier, but my hanging baskets and window-boxes (full of summer bedding) still look healthy and happy. Think I will wrap the tree ferns and bananas in fleece this week though, I don't want to get caught out.
