Okay, this may but not be strictly CR but how much longer are these arctic conditions going to last???!!!

I seriously am not coping with this weather! My school is frozen over, the lane is an ice rink, we have no water for most of the day and my horses have hardly done anything for a month. They are totally loopy despite having their feeds reduced and being turned out for a few hours a day. I am dreading getting back on and not risking it until the weather improves. Really want to get out competing again!!

How is everyone else coping? Or is it just me who's about to have a nervous breakdown?!

Nothing useful to add but just wanted to join in on the complaining!!! Am thoroughly fed up with it all now, I miss regular riding and my toes not being frozen

Glad its not just me worring about not being able to ride my horse. Got out a few times over xmas, thats all. Cant do anything, its driving me mad. My horse was at the peak of fitness which is such a shame as I have worked very hard with him.

Summary
Staying very cold
December was a particularly cold month with temperatures below average in most areas. It now looks as though much of January will continue in the same vein with harsh frosts and further heavy snowfalls.
Monday 4 January 2010 to Sunday 10 January 2010

More snow
Areas of sleet and snow will drift southwards across the UK during the first part of the week. At first, the most significant snowfalls are likely to be in Scotland and over the higher ground of northern England.

However, later in the week, the risk for more prolonged, heavy snowfall lies across many eastern and southeastern parts of the UK so we can expect some problems here with significant accumulations of snow likely to lead to some disruption.

Throughout the week, temperatures will remain well below the seasonal average with severe night frosts and daytime highs often remaining below freezing. Ice will continue to be a major hazard anywhere that rain, sleet or snow has fallen.

On the plus side, when it is not snowing, the air will be clean and clear with bright sunny spells, especially in more western areas.
Monday 11 January 2010 to Sunday 17 January 2010

Cold but often dry
High pressure to the west of the UK will maintain the northerly winds and intense cold for much of this period.

Some further snow showers can be expected, again mainly in northern and eastern areas but many inland areas are likely to remain mostly dry, with the best sunshine towards the west.
Monday 18 January 2010 to Sunday 31 January 2010

Little change at first
It will remain cold for the rest of January although there is a hint that temperatures may recover slightly towards the south and west eventually.

The weather will turn increasingly unsettled which may result in some further prolonged snowfalls - the west being more at risk during this time, although as temperatures pick up, southern parts could be more likely to see rain towards the end of the month.
 
I miss my house being a reasonable temperature, it got down to 8 degree in my living room yesterday - think its warmer in my stable!

Very fed up of it now, so bored I have actually taken to cleaning the house properly, inspired by watching too much Kim and Aggie on tv, how sad am I?

I agree, very bored of the white stuff and freezing cold now.

Haven't ridden since 17th Dec due to school being frozen/covered in snow and roads being too dangerous to take trailer out. Luckily still managing to get horse turned out, which is better than nothing for her.

My sharer is supposed to be having a lesson at local centre on 16th and I've a competition on 17th, desperately hoping we can get to both.
