What jacket(s) are you wearing at the moment?

[Smithy]

Far, far too cold for leather here now. High was -8 today (and it dropped below that for the most part I can tell you) and still blowing, so goodness knows what the effective temperature has been for the day. Sun has nearly disappeared too.

Old photo but this was what was keeping off the cold today so it'll do...

Against the grain here, or maybe just crazy, but I braved -2 deg last night to go watch Blancmage in concert, wearing... My AVI A-2!!!!
Yes, I was layered and besides the frozen face and knee caps, was fine.

BUZZ RICKSON DECK HOOK JACKET​

 

[newagegeezer]

I travelled around Sweden and Norway in winter 10 - 15 years back (to see some snow which we rarely get in London) and went dogsledding on a clear full moon night from Tromso, it was -28 out in the country, and teh aurora appeared, magical. Then flew to Tromso in January a couple of years ago to spend a week there and hopefully repeat the experience, it was beautifully snowy but after a day the temps soared and on the night we went sledding it was above freezing and clouded over so no Aurora visible and on coach back into Tromso it started pouring with rain, so hope you get to see it John and it stays cold clear and bright for you.

Looks like a Coast Command Hooded Irvin would be handy right now John
What the temperature where you are ?

 

[mulceber]

Beautiful photos, John. What's the location?

 

[John Lever]

My m445 under the Hurtigruten jacket that is mandatory for all RIB landings, as is the life jacket (removed).
We were at Loen on Nord Fjord at the top of the Sky Lift, the steepest cable car in Europe. Beautiful views down the fjord and over the snow covered mountains and glaciers. About -10 C at the top.

I am on the summit of Chasseral in French-speaking Switzerland, one of the highest mountain in my region, only 1600m but yes it is already very cold

How’s that AVI breaking in? I’m seriously considering getting one

Great pics John. Just a small thing, it's Nordfjord ;-)

Vestland is stunning. If you're after nordlys (Northern Lights) then you're coming the right way, we've had them every night here over the last few days here in Nordland.

ELC Roughwear B-3. I really like this jacket.
I must get on and prune the fruit trees.

How quickly did you put that love on hold when you realised that it is 17c outside

went into kitchen last night about 9pm and saw it was snowing , about 3" deep so we went out to walk on our common, the very southern edge of Epping Forest, just 200 yards from us......it was almost as bright as day, walked for about an hour throwing snowballs like kids, when we got back it was coming down even heavier. About 5" in garden this morning. Photo taken about 10pm last night, wore my old Belstaff waxed motorbike jacket, no moon but snow made it almost a bright as day. very rare to get snow in London before Xmas, usually it's around end of Jan/feb if we get any.
