Frosty grass, Helen's Bay
The temperature today stayed just above freezing point. In shaded areas (such as here, near this picnic table
Image) where the low winter sun fails to penetrate, the frost never thawed.

Seat plaque, Helen's Bay (June 2019)
A seat plaque, beside the path from Coastguard Avenue to the loughshore, commemorating Jean François Jamet.
“A giant of the drinks industry in Northern Ireland who died following a long battle with cancer was a "larger-than-life character".
French-born former managing director of Guinness Northern Ireland Jean-Francois Jamet passed away aged 59.
The businessman - who was better known as Jeff - spent much of his working life in the drinks industry here, heading up the stout brand during the mid-1990s and into 2001.
Former colleague Stephen Magorrian - who heads up the Horatio Group - paid tribute to Mr Jamet.
"He was a larger-than-life character and a very big man, but soft and a gentle man. He was great company and well liked by the trade," he said.
"He was a man who loved his job and loved Northern Ireland" - Belfast Telegraph, 9 September 2015.
