    The Daily pond temp thread

    South Norfolk
    What a cold night, last night! Inside my polytunnel the 8000 gallons dropped by over two degrees, that is meant to be the max, you should allow for Koi health reasons. So what about uncovered ponds & smaller volumes of water, did they drop more?
    Fortunately my polytunnel is already recovering the temps, the pond dropped to exactly 18.0°c just over three hours ago, it’s now climbing (slowly) & is @ 18.2°c. Edit update :- @ 1530hrs back to 18.5°c
    So that was the end of my run of keeping the water above 20°+ this year ( four months ‘ish)

    It’s been the coldest night of the season so far here, with a low of 1.2°c and a slight ground frost. It has also served to chill the pond somewhat. It is a lovely sunny morning though with clear blue skies and calm winds. It is forecast to remain dry and mostly sunny today and not as cold tonight, so the pond should recover a bit when the sun is on it later.

    Current temp is 8.2°c and the pond is on 12.9°c.

    Another nippy start but not as a cold as yesterday. It is another dry and sunny morning with gentle breezes. Another mostly sunny day is in prospect and it’ll become warmer than of late by this afternoon. A pleasant end to the day and becoming quite cool again overnight.

    Current temp is 10.9°c and the pond is on 13.1°c.

    It’s been quite a cloudy night which has helped keep it milder, but we’re back to blue skies and sunshine now. The rest of the day will remain sunny and it’ll be warm again. A band of cloud slipping south tonight and a cooler day tomorrow.

    Current temp is 14.0°c and the pond is on 14.9°c.

    After a lovely, warm day yesterday, the promised cooler air has arrived overnight. It is though, another dry and sunny morning and the rest of the day will remain much the same. Despite the sun, temperatures will be some 6 or 7 degrees down on those of yesterday’s. Chilly tonight.

    Current temp is 9.6°c and the pond is on 15.2°c.

    Beautiful day yesterday, blue sky & warm sunshine, was warmer as the day went on.
    Outside in the open it’s 17.2°c & RH IS 48%
    In the shade it’s 15.2°c, whilst in the polytunnel the air is 28.0°c (closed up)the pond is holding onto 18.3°c.

    The Koi are on five feeds a day, half n half sinking floating, with a mix of wheat germ in it, also reduced feeding times.

    Winter draws on?

    A chilly night with a hint of ground frost at dawn. Once again though, we have blue skies and sunshine to greet the new day with some patchy high cloud. The day will remain dry and sunny but cooler than of late. Dry again tonight and not quite as cold as a band of cloud heads our way.
    Current temp is 5.3°c and the pond is on 13.9°c.

    After a couple of days away, I’m back and it’s a cloudy and overcast morning but milder than the weekend. It will stay predominantly cloudy today with only limited brightness and fairly breezy too. Temperatures will be up on the last few days. Staying fairly mild and cloudy tonight.

    Current temp is 13.9°c and the pond is on 13.1°c.

    Another dull and overcast start to the day, but it is dry and fairly mild with light winds. The day will remain rather cloudy with limited brightness and rather humid too. Hopefully something a bit brighter for tomorrow.

    Current temp is 13.7°c and the pond is on 14.0°c.

    Yesterday afternoon turned out to be warm and sunny, but we are back to cloudy skies again this morning, though still dry and fairly mild. Like yesterday, the cloud should thin and break to reveal some sunshine again this afternoon. It will be a fairly warm day particularly if any sun appears.

    Current temp is 12.4°c and the pond is on 14.6°c.

    Another cloudy, mild and dry start to the day. The skies should tend to brighten through the morning with some pleasant spells of sunshine coming through. It will feel warm in any sunshine. A fine end to the day, before cloud and rain reaches us by dawn tomorrow.

    Current temp is 13.8°c and the pond is on 15.2°c.

    Well it’s Autumn, but the sunshine & temps are higher than normal for this time of year! Global warming? Next few days are forecast to be mild with the occasional sunshine, but colder & wet by the weekend?

    Outside in the open, temp is 15.7°c overcast & 90%RH, in the shade it’s 14.9°c, the polytunnel is up @ 18.6°c & the pond is still slowly dropping (cold nights) currently it’s 17°c, koi are definitely slowing down, but still eating well.

    As forecast, it’s a wet start to the day and colder than of late too. The rain is light in nature and winds are fairly light, so it could be worse! It is forecast to remain cloudy today with further rain at times, but this should fade away this afternoon. Skies will clear overnight and will be a chilly night with a touch of frost.

    Current temp is 7.3°c and the pond is on 15.0°c.

    Much milder this morning with temperatures starting nearly ten degrees higher than yesterday. It is a dry morning and the low cloud is already breaking up and some hazy sunshine is coming through. Today will remain dry and milder than the weekend with temperatures just above average. Dry again tonight but quite cloudy.

    Current temp is 12.4°c and the pond is on 12.8°c which should rise in the coming week.

    Mild and dry this morning with blue skies and sunshine. It will be a mostly sunny day and it will be respectfully warm despite a brisk SSW breeze. Staying dry and clear tonight and quite cool by dawn. Even warmer tomorrow with unbroken sunshine.

    Current temp is 11.9°c and the pond is on 13.2°c.

    As promised, it’s a blue sky morning with lovely autumn sunshine. After a bit of a cool start, it’s warming up already and it’s set to be a very warm day for the time of year. It will remain sunny throughout the day and will lead us into a clear first part of the night. There maybe some cloud and showers through the night tonight.

    Current temp is 11.6°c and the pond is on 13.6°c.

    It’s been a dry and very mild night with a rather cloudy start at dawn. It is now sunny once again and feeling warm in that sun. However, the sun won’t last today and a short spell of rain is expected early this afternoon. It will remain quite warm though, if rather breezy.

    Current temp is 15.3°c and the pond is on 14.9°c.

    It’s a windy morning but currently dry after a bit of light rain in the early hours. It will remain windy throughout the day with some strong gusts and some further showers or rain expected later. It will be quite warm again for the time of year, and a very mild night to come.

    Current temp is 14.2°c and the pond is on 15.1°c.

    A few very sunny days, with temps to match, but winds & cold nights let you know it’s not summer! Yesterday the wind started to blow some more than usual, to welcome the advancing storm, that if the forecast is right will miss us altogether?

    Out in the open it’s 21°c & 60% RH , in the shade it’s 18°c
    The polytunnel air temp is 21.7°c & rising, the pond has gained a little over the week to 17.3°c, koi still on four feeds a day.
    I hope no one in the west gets any damage from the advancing storm!

    The very windy conditions of yesterday have subsided somewhat although there’s still a fresh breeze. Only small amounts of rain yesterday and a bit more this morning, but this is already fizzling out and it should slowly become drier and brighter into this afternoon. It will be unseasonably warm today especially if any sun appears.

    Current temp is 18.1°c and the pond is on 15.3°c.
