Whither the weather?


So far here in West Yorkshire we seem to have avoided the worst of the winter weather that other parts of the UK have suffered: snow, particularly in Scotland; wind and flooding in the South-West. It has certainly been damp and miserable but nothing terrible. It sometimes makes for interesting photos. I stopped at the top of High Bank Lane (aptly named!) to enjoy the storm clouds along the valley, looking towards Baildon Moor.  


Another morning, I drew back the curtains to discover thick fog outside. I had an appointment for a cut and blow-dry at a hair salon on Gordon Terrace. By the time I went out, the sun was breaking through and burning off the mist. I enjoyed how the light was catching the trees that grow on the waste ground (what was once a small quarry, I think) on the walk down. Despite my neatly coiffed (for once!) head, I decided on a walk before I returned home but, during the hour of my appointment, the fog had totally disappeared. It made for an enjoyable walk in the sunshine, which was actually remarkably warm for the time of year.
