      Ive noticed a problem with the original thread, taking me to page 1 of the thread. Assuming its the same problem as my original Brexit thread (stolen by WMC lol) that there were too many pages, i have started another weather thread (stolen from lightbodyae55 lol).

          About 2 cm here in Leicestershire over night I like to see the snow make you feel warm and cosy inside looking out ! Just saw a robin with bright red breast in the snow winter can be wonderful just had a nice bowl of soup with a buttered crust very nice

                        Very cold morning here had my gas heating coming on and off all day with thermostat in hall was £2.85 on my smart meter that’s just the gas my thermostat I’ve set at 19 degrees .  Is that expensive ?

                          I plugged my smart meter in to check before I went bed I don’t normally have it on but just thought I’d check how much it cost

                            Brisk frost this morning; garden thermometer doing -2C right now.  Carol says it will soar to +5C after lunch and be bright and clear. In temperatures like this, I appreciate the EV’s ability to “pre-heat” itself for half an hour. No more scraping windows on freezing, slippery mornings.

                                The thing about pre-heating Tharg is that it can take up to 3kw to complete ouch.

                                  Does pre heating take miles off the range ?

                                    Yes, preheating your car can affect its range, but it can also help you achieve maximum performance:

                                    Cold weather
                                    In cold weather, preheating your car’s battery can help it maintain its performance and charge more quickly. Cold temperatures can slow down chemical reactions in the battery, causing it to drain faster and produce less energy.

                                    Heating the cabin
                                    Heating the cabin in cold weather can drain your battery, which can reduce your range. However, preconditioning your car’s climate control can help you achieve a comfortable temperature when you enter the vehicle.

                                        -2° out door. No frost and very dry with a light breeze 🌬️ that makes it feel even colder. Lovely day, sunshine ☀️ that blinds you because it’s so low in the sky. Mean while, back at the ranch, it’s a cosy ♨️ 19.5° Thanks to Tado’s Geo fencing.

                                          @Brydo and @Menorca Mike  Had suspected that warm pre-heated car would lose some range. Dunno how much yet. Only had it four days and haven’t been able to get any readings which will mean much. Aside from making it instantly comfy, it also saves risk to my knackered backbone since I don’t have to stretch over that ridiculously long windscreen to scrape it.

                                              Temperature 4C. And after yesterday’s bright, shiny display, today is back to grey, grey, grey. Moreover, the aggressive drizzle turned to proper rain and then… SLEET. The horror… The horror…
