Another thread made me realise how different the weather is in various parts of the country even though it is quite a small country. It had been wild, wet and windy here all day in central Scotland yet another poster has complained of sunburn!!!!!! Presunably 'down south'??
Bramble

Down South - here in the Midlands: Northants/Oxon border - it's been BeutiFul ;) ......... blue skies for 2 days and no rain, however, it's been blustery ::). I've thinned out my layers today :bounce:

-
I love a good show of thunder & lightning provided I'm inside
-
Rained this morn forecast was cold wet and hailstones so put big raincoat on with brolly expecting the worse. Instead the rain stopped after an hour, sun came out, nice and warm but bit chilly in the shade. Didn't rain again till late evening ::)

You need to move to Scotland Taz! ;D
Today the sun is out, but it feels chilly in the wind. 9 degrees. Tomorrow it's to be colder and wet! :(
-
supposed to be sunny and 15 degrees today. It's partly cloudy and pretty cold here in London with a chilly breeze.
I need some sunshine! I still have the heating on in the evening. In mid May :'(
-
its been lovely today, warm, a little windy, but dry. but very strange weather yesterday, makes you wonder. lol.
-
Fine here all day - sunny but no real warmth. Got all the washing dry anyway. :)
We are getting worryingly close to the longest day as well. :(
-
Cold but dry, plenty of sun but no heat from the rays. :(
Cazza xx

Rain rain rain :(
-
Lovely here yesterday. A little chilly, but when the sun is shining who cares?
Started off dull and wet this morning, but the sun is out now. It's brightening up nicely. :)

Raining and cold.
-
rain more rain and then it rained again. funny how dogs sleep more when its raining lol.
-
raining..dull.
Not happy as off to the seaside on Sunday!! 8)
-
Warmer :o: over cast. Been in our garden since 8.30 a.m. ............ :whist: more foul weather on the way though! >:(
-
It's Thursday and raining again! Humph!
Bramble
-
Cloudy here but dry and warm (ish), more rain forecast for tomorrow and the weekend though - will it ever stop?
-
It's nice and toasty here. NOT! It's dull and 6 degrees with a wind chill! :(
-
Warmer now and sun peeking through - washing out 8)
-
My tumble drier is in overdrive for those things I can put in it. Other than that my house looks like a Chinese Laundry! ::)
-
Really chilly this afternoon, but at least the rain held off until I reached home. :)
-
Sunny for most of the day here after the early morning drizzle went through. A bit warmer too in the sunshine. Cloudy now though and the winds picking up again.
Taz x
-
Sunny all day :-*
-
Mostly sunny, just a spot or 2 of rain and a bit warmer. Still not very nice for mid-May though.

The coldest May for over 300 years.

Weekend weather is supposed to be vile >:(

15 beautiful non stop brilliant sunny days
My cos left 16 days ago
Out of the 21 here she had about 10 sunny days
Day she left it was cracking the flags and hasnt stopped since !
-
Cloudy and chilly, but next week is looking promising..... Maybe time to dig out the shorts 8)
-
Dreary. The day looked promising but we had rain before lunch and it's just grey and dreary now.
-
Well it's finally brightened up at last. Not blazing sun, but enough to make it less dreary.
-
drizzle :(
-
Fine. Sunny. Cloudy. Drizzle ::)
-
Dry but cloudy, drizzley rain by evening :( At least it hasn't been as cold. :)

I am beginning to feel fed up now with the lack of sun, we all need some to feel healthy and energetic, I feel jaded and tired without it after a long winter, its not as if its been warm either and not much incentive to do things in the garden.
I have even thought of looking for a sunbed somwhere to perk me up ;D it does take a lot for me to feel not my cheerful self and I need some sun 8)
We had a glorious week in March and after that gloom and cold from then on. OH keeps on saying its only May but it will be midsummers day soon ::)
silverlady x
-
I hope you feel better soon SL. I can't sympathise as you know because this weather is great for me but it must be difficult if you are longing for sunshine. Yes, almost the longest day... just over four weeks to go.. but quite often our summer doesn't get going until July so we can't really see that as the middle of our summer. Don't despair!
I have just read that next week summer will be arriving so not long to wait now.
Taz x
-
Thanks Taz :-*
Just going to Waitrose to get a pizza and salad, wine for OH and purple grape juice (or pomegranate) for me to drink, we can at least pretend we have the sun.
Football after that for OH on TV and I will probably play a BigFish game, I did intend ask OH to get my summer clothes down from the attic, but its so gloomy out I willl let him off ;D
silverlady x
-
18/19 degrees next week SL, hang on a bit longer!!
-
Dull. Drizzling. Heating is on >:(
-
Sun is out now. Still windy though, but that's good for the washing. :)
-
Beautiful sunshine, so long as you are sheltered from the cold wind it's quite nice.
-
Cold, damp, and dreary... our heating is on too. :(
-
Still grey >:(
-
Sunny and warm yesterday but grey and chilly today. Still, a heatwave is supposed to be on the way!
-
Believe that when it arrives ::) ........ did begin weeding earlier but lost interest, came in and put on the heating :-\
-
I'm sitting here, indoors, basking in sunshine. We have windows with some kind of gas in them that heats up when there is enough sun hitting them so it's toasty. Not so outdoors though.
-
That must be a nightmare if you get a sunny day in the summer though CG?
Taz x
-
Can be. Living room is westerly facing so gets a lot of sun. Just wish we got as much of the sun in the winter! One of our bedrooms faces same way, our son's old room, can make for uncomfortable sleeping. Same bedroom is like an ice box in the winter as it has two outside walls and a massive window!
-
gray, chilly, gloom :(
-
Sunday (central Scotland) - for once it has been really nice and sunny - not that warm but DRY. Hurrah!
Bramble
-
Cloudy and very cold in Yorkshire this morn, by late afternoon the sun broke through the clouds, 8) got a little warmer- but chilly again tonight.
Hope the heatwave arrives, would be great not to wear a bulky coat or have to carry a brolly. :yes:
Will most probably moan then cos it's too hot ::) ;D
Cazza xx

Sun slowly burning back the haar. Got my flip flops on for first time this year.
-
Meant to be cloudy and sunny here today, havnt seen any sign of sun yet, it is meant to get warmer this week to 18ish I think, I live in Wiltshire, I have some new summer tops which I brought in April for my birthday but havnt worn them yet I've left the tags in so if no sun I'll take them back for a refund.
I hate dull damp cold wheather but I love the sun.
-
cloudy and gray looking ... again! :-\
-
Glorious here, warm and sunny, I have the windows open in the computer room and the smell of warming up grass has just drifted through the windows. Hurray :) :)

-
Its beautiful here in Worcestershire, a lovely cloudless sky. Ive been out in the greenhouse all morning getting my containers ready. Hopefully they can soon transfer outside!
Also just heard the forcast for tomorrow, the weatherman, said 'as soon as we pull back the curtains we will see summer' I really cant wait, hopefully it will make me buck my ideas up!
-
dry :bounce: enough to do weeding, setting up a window box with trailing sweet peas and putting in 2 new 'steps' across a muddy patch of garden 8)
-
the sun hasn't broken through the cloud in London so it's grey and breezy. Perfect nasal drip weather :(
The whole of last 'summer' was like this - warm, grey, breezy. Desperately need some sun!
-
:parti: here comes the sun :D :D
off to do weeding too CLKD (http://www.smiley-lol.com/smiley/maison/jardiner/jardinage0.gif)
-
Foul here - cold, foggy, miserable and just like november. I went out this morning wearing boots and my thick winter coat and then wished I'd taken my gloves.
-
Roasting in Edinburgh - finally! Sat all afternoon in the garden with my girls - lovely. Hubby and I just had dinner in the garden too - bit chilly getting now but it's meant to be the same tomorrow!! Xxx
-
Been glorious all day, more to come I hope.

Very very sunny and warm today in SW Scotland, please god let it continue. :sunny:

It must be summer, next door neighbour is cutting his grass. First time this year. Lol

Says 16 degrees but feels so much hotter than that. Probably because we're not used to it yet! ;D

I'm ducking as i say this but its too hot ha ha its ok if you can just lazy about but just been down the road for shopping with my granddaughter in the puchchair and now i am boiling and feeling dizzy. I suppose its been that blinkin cold that i need to get used to it being hot. I used to love the heat and was always sunbathing whenever i could but the last 2 years i cannot sit out for long anymore, i make myself sit out as i do look so much better with a tan but not for long.
-
Sun here but with a bit of a breeze - lovely :)

Hot, hot, hot: better than wet, wet, wet ::)

I planned a continental breakfast in the garden today with proper coffee, croissants, apricot jam and fresh orange juice.
Hah ::) ::) woke up to dull skys and high humidity, (with a chance of thunder storms) and a headache!
So kicked it in to touch and we are off to Blackburn to the Coffee Shop, and OH is getting a hair cut while I wonder around the shops.

Well I've dug out my rocking deck chair and it's basking in the sun drying out after being stored in the garage over winter. 18 degrees and very calm. Calm is something we don't have much up here in the north east, might even have to bring out my garden parasol.
-
Just got back via the garden centre, the sun came out late morning and its sweltering.
CLKD bough dwarf tomato plants, Greek basil plants and sunflower plants for the very small new green house.

FABULOUS DAY!!!! :)

23C here today and lovely. It was quite nippy this morning and we had planned to have a day in the city which we did. Got out really hot though and after wearing a winter coat on Monday it was a real treat! :)
-
Now 19 degrees. Son away to Crieff with GF 25 degrees there!
-
28 in my car :o
Been working this evening tying in a climbing rose, clematis and other climbers. Glad you got to the garden centre Silverlady, I was going today but it was too hot ::)
-
Beautiful, the sort of day when you want to spend three hours of the afternoon sitting in a pub garden, looking out over trees, rolling green fields & fields of that yellow stuff (?) with a jug of Pimms in front of you. :)
xxxx
'Yellow stuff' probably Oilseed rape
'Jug of Pimms' - not long until Wimbledon too.
Ghiro x
-
Yellow stuff - nasty when the sun is out (bad enough when it's not sunny)!! I'm allergic to it - it gives me hayfever symptoms and mild asthma. And it smells like wee!
I could go a jug of Pimms though!!
-
Oilseed rape makes my chest tighten it's the only trigger for me to wheeze ::) hot hot hot <PHEW>!

Its 31 centigrade here, as hot as Greece but no sea to cool down in 8) 8)

at 4.30pm came home from office and car said it was 42c. So glad I've got air conditioning :D
-
Our pollen levels, in something or other, must be rising as my asthma is playing up a bit today. Will have to dig out my anti-histamines.
Hit 20 degrees here though it felt hotter.
-
hot here in London but there's a little breeze. Up in our mezzanine (aka OH's office area and clothes drying)in the lounge it is stifling.
Dug out the summer duvet as nearly boiled last night. So pleased to finally see the sun though.
-
hot and sticky. Found a shady spot in our garden and slept solidly for 90 mins this afternoon :-*

Its been a glorious day here hot but with a breeze, have kept all the windows open but curtains drawn and fans going so the house is cool.
It really does feel like being in Greece or Italy. Its not so humid today so much more enjoyable.
I have a cool water humidifier that I use with essential oils. I used it today and put eucalyptus, lavender and a dash of peppermint and geranium in the water and it seemed to cool the sitting room too.
Hurray for Summer.
silverlady x
-
It's actually getting warmer here, than it was earlier. Think that's because the easterly breeze had died down. I sat outside earlier and had my lunch out there too. Settled to read my Kindle as well. Hope it's like this tomorrow.
-
Forecast is for a good weekend as well. Yippee!
Bramble

Must say too hot for me, :sunny: been indoors most of the day with fans on and windows open, I do go washing mad though enjoying the lovely fresh smell when it comes off the line. Problem now is it's too hot for the ironing ;)
Cazza xx
-
Absolutely glorious! Clear blue skies.
-
no clouds at all ;D But a bit too windy. I have the windows open in the flat and everything is blowing around. Tried to read the paper in the garden and it just blew everywhere.
Still, not complaining, just lapping up the sunshine while it lasts.
-
More bearable today beautiful sunshine but a nice breeze to cool the air. Great for watchin my son play cricket just needed some strawbs and scones with my cuppa. ;)
Think I will sleep better tonight with that coolness in the air :yipi:

Scorching. A slight breeze on the coast but wall-towall sunshine and inland a few miles ..... phew! :)

Lovely again this morning...be too hot later again 8)
Just checked the 10 day weather for 'up north' as we are taking Little Jack on his first holiday on Saturday to the beach for a week.....RAIN!!!!!! :'(
-
To be a bit cooler up here today, there's already a strong breeze blowing in from the North. It's quite pleasant. Think there's to be some rain this week, but not a lot. Ground here is bone dry.
-
Hot, hot, hot :sunny: 8)
-
Now it's dull, dull, dull! :(
-
Don't stress ladies. The sun and heat is coming back at the weekend :D

Its at last getting cooler, I don't care how hot it is during the day, but hate the hot airless nights. I am looking forward to sleeping better tonight :)

Is that you on the hammock Cubagirl?

Dull grey and cold in Edinburgh now. Needing a bit of respite from the sun but hoping it comes back soon. Xxx
-
Lm ;D ;D ;D I wish! Tried one once and fell off the other side! ;D Hubby was no help, he just stood there laughing. I told him I'd kill him if he took a picture, which he didn't. Just as well, or he wouldn't have been able to take me to the Bahamas this year. ;)
It's freezing up here now. 22 degrees yesterday, 12 today. A bit of a shock to the system!
-
Yesterday was a really hot day, watched my son play a cricket match and open top buses passed on the road at the side never seen them in our area before. Then of to a local pub for dinner by the river watchin the ducks and swans swim by lovely 8)
Today has been even hotter than yesterday. Ready for some cooler days now though easier to work in.

Absolutely freezing up here. 8 degrees and had to put the heating on for a short time to warm the house up. 1 week of warmth is not enough or am I being greedy! ::)

damp grey and dull in Edinburgh today - kind of matches my mood tho! xxx

Lovely here again this morning (Midlands)
Heavy rain & thunder for this afternoon they say (garden is ready for it)
I knew it would rain when we took Little Jack to the seaside this weekend for the week...we will still have a great time, cant wait to see his reaction to the sea.

Lovely sunshine here again at the moment, but who knows. They did forecast rain yesterday, for today. :-\

Hi CLKD
Yup, i will post some pics when we get back, dont go till this Saturday.... 8)

Lovely day for the torch to come to my part of England!

Really hot and muggy here today. The sun is still out though, so until it rains, I'm not complaining. :)

We had a sharp rain storm an hour ago, it didn't even touch the ground >:(

Very dark.

It's been very sunny here all day which was very welcome as we were on a school trip! We made it back without losing any children - bonus! ;D

I love a good thunderstorm. And the smell of rain when the air is hot

Overcast here and much cooler, sun was forecast today but i won't hold my breath.
Please god can everyone have some of this for the weekend :sunny: Well you can but ask. x

Sun is trying to come through, bit late in the day though. Warmer. Breezy, flags are flying :-* forecast dire :(
-
Warmish and cloudy with intermittent little glimpses of sunshine. Wind's getting up now though so I suppose the rain is on its way. Such a shame for everyone who has put such hard work into organising street parties, fetes etc.

A few sunny spells, but still a horrid chilly wind blowing. Resisted temptation to switch heating on, but only just!

Day nearly over it's raining, heavily.
-
Same here :-\
-
Sun is attempting to make an appearance, but it's cold. They are talking about frost for tonight. Remind me someone is this supposed to be summer?

Its been raining all night here and it still is, its cold too, did I really complain that it was too hot last week ::)
silverlady x

9 degrees! Very wet. Toyed with the heating this morning, but resisted. Kept telling myself it's June.
-
heating on to dry my socks :o which are on my feet
Himself is out and about at a sports event >:( with 28 other people ::)
I'm going to do some ironing - T-towels relating to the Street Party tomorrow then sit ready for the Thames Pagent later.
-
Very cold and very heavy drizzle. Miserable to be honest! I put the central heating on again last night because we have Mum visiting and she feels the cold. Hubby popped down to check the horses about 9pm and gave back and put his frezzing cold hands on me. Who would believe that in the orning it was beautiful sunshine? Crazy weather
-
Still drizzling. Feet cold. Heating been on. Ironing done - at least that warmed me up ::) ......... bunting bouncing a bit outside the window.
-
The heating is on.
-
Cold and raining really spoiling the street party, but some people have gone to it and trying to enjoy.
Mac

Its such a shame its bucketing down in London, but its pretty spectacular all the same. If it had been as hot as last week what a show it would have been.
Still it makes you proud to be British.
silverlady x

I tried not to give in and put the heating on, but at 4.30 I couldn't stand it any more. Just had it on for half an hour to take the coldness away. I was wrapped up on the sofa with a blanket earlier. Please bring the sun back, I'll try not to moan about the heat, not promising mind you! ::)
-
damp drizzle but we went to the BBQ. Ate in doors ::)
Like a rain mist now. Hope the sunshine comes back soon. I wore my crocs. Refuse to put socks and shoes back on >:(
-
Have hardly taken my socks off yet this year ;)
I bet I wake every hour to look out the window to see what the weather is doing 'cos our Street Party is tomorrow ::)
-
... what not even in the bath.... I wondered what that cheesy whiff was :rofl:
-
went to bed last night it was raining, got up this morning yes it was raining. the poor dogs been in and out all day, and yes they got soaked, its still raining, i bet the pony is all soaked through, coz it hasent the sense to stay in it shelter. and yes im off to bed and yes its still raining. now this is getting boring ............
-
Cloudy and bit chilly really. Suns trying to peek out though.
-
Best part of the day here! Sun's been out since about 5 o'clock and the wind has dropped. Not been nice enough to sit out or even have patio doors open.
-
Sunny with showers all day. Wind chill taking the edge off the 11 degrees that we have. Got washing dry though.
-
lovely day
-
Sun, please come back, I think I defo feel better when it's sunny!
-
sunny on and off ..I'd like it to be a bit more on tomorrow :)

Sat. was fine: Sunday was pouring: nice sunset tonight ......... Monday for the street party was showers then lovely blueskies; yesterday for the Fete was sunny/gloomy/showers/drenched >:( - today much better.
Typically British ::)

horrible for Flaming June >:(

I'm finding it very Octoberish and enjoying it ;D but I am worried about my woodpigeons who have nested right outside one of my bedroom windows. With the gales we are forecast I am sure it will blow down. I haven't seen any chicks yet although by my reckoning they should have hatched earlier this week. It's only a small thing I know but they spent so long choosing the site, making the platform nest with the female being very picky over the twigs she would accept and then taking it in turns to sit on the nest for the last 16 days. Last year they spared me the worry but usually they decide to take up residence in the same place.
Hope you all stay safe in these strong winds.
Taz x

We had strong winds this time last year which blew our back fence down, but it was a warm dry wind.
Today it's (http://yoursmiles.org/tsmile/cloud/t116008.gif)
Actually it's more fog, but can't find a foggy picture. ;)

Awful. Drizzling and cold. We saw the sun yesterday and there was no wind so that was something. Actually went out without a cardi or jacket. By the evening it was cold again. It's terrible really because we have only sat out in the garden 2 evenings this year and both of those were the last Bank hol when we had good weather. It has been a totally rubbish summer here. :'(

pennyfarthing sounds like your near us rotten summer ive just put the heating on and its almost july :(

I'm not too far from the Norfolk coast and Cromer usually gets the record for sunniest place. ::) This morning it is just 14C, I'm sitting here with woolly socks on, jeans and a long sleeved top. The sky has no blue in it at all and it's not looking good again.
I love cycling but have been on my bike less this year than any year I can remember.
-
My cycle stayed in the shed for most of 2012. :-\ ........ it has rained all night, pity those poor souls in camp-sites at various events around the UK :sigh: ......... it's still drizzling - sun came out briefly around 2.15, took one look and disappeared >:(and indoors I'm cold, outside it is muggy ..........
-
Currently 16C here and heavy drizzle. Have not seen sun once today and sky still grey. :'(
They are saying Sunday could be hottest day of year so far. We'll see! ;)

After a damp, drizzly day this morning has dawned bright and sunny :bounce:

Rained all yesterday but fine and sunny today. Great for F1 qualifying :-* Go LEWIS GO!
-
Have to say I don't like him much. He is so arrogant. I do like Jenson and Deresta.
Failing that Mark Webber will do.
Not being picky of course.....Don't even like F1 much but after being force fed it for nearly 30 years the facts kind of rub off. I know far more than I ever wanted to know about F1 racing.

:rofl: Mark for me too ........... :-* :-* ........ Lewis is shy, he actually appears arrogant but has mellowed in recent years ;) and Jenson is spoken for as well as enjoying Triathlons in his 'spare' time ???
-
Nothing special really considering we're nearly into July. Looked promising at 9.30am but never really got going. Not much in the way of sunshine and not nice enought to sit out this evening for sure.
-
We sat out :-* did I say that already :-\ ........... in the 'cabin' watching the wild birds.
Warmer outside than in ::)
-
Been a very hot day on the Wilts / Dorset Border... been moaning about the temperature, then I get hit by a hot flush... Where the hell were they in the winter when they could've been of use?
-
::)
:sunny:
-
Sunny, bright and cheerful.
Quite blowy too
-
lots of grey clouds although i think i see a bit of blue sky peeping through :)
-
HB don't let my son's GF hear you about Hamilton. She wants his babies! ;D Son finds it highly amusing.
Button is easy on the eyes for sure. ::)
20 degrees out there, not much sun & blowy. It was clammy during the night.
-
Red hot here in newcastle! I have all the windows and french doors open a maxi dress on and i have had to turn indoor fan on, lets hope i dont have a hot flush today i may melt xx
-
Its somehow missed us :'(
-
It's just terrible here. Windy and rainy with not a spark of blue to give any hope.
Think I will move somewhere warmer......like Alaska ;D

-
Dreadful here too - brilliant sunshine and bright blue skies :ange:. My husband said it was really hot on the golf course. I got the garden chair out and sat in the sun for 10 minutes in the hope of getting myself enough vitamin D. It was a long ten minutes but I did it!

;D ::)
Lovely :sunny:
-
24C here (in my garden) but breezy at times. Not roasting, quite pleasant. Every so often it clouds over for a few mins but then back to sun again. Not really the sizzler that they forecast for today but pleasant.
-
We are in Scarborbough, and it's been a glorious day. Bit breezy but warm and sunny.....bliss :)
-
turned out lovely 21 deg but there are a few dark clouds around now i have to go and water next doors garden so you can bet it will pour after ive done it and if i dont do it there will be no rain i may leave it till around 8 i think
-
I find watering the garden in the evenings very soothing ........
-
Been warm dry sunny with light breeze today....and muggy.
Temp up to 25C.
Back down to 19C tomorrow.
Nice to be able to sit out under a big Norfolk sky.... 8)
-
We hit 22 today. Phew it was warm.
-
The wind was cold though.
This morning the clouds are gathering ::) .......... :-\
-
Cloudy, showers. :(
-
45.5 C here yesterday and now humid as the monsoons begin. It is c***!!!
-
Don't know how you cope with that sort of heat Trey. I'd be sat in front of the air con 24/7! :sweatdrop:
-
Or in the shower with the dogs ;D
I could not cope with that heat either but I guess it's what you grow up with and get used to.
You and I are wee Scottish lassies CG so we are used to the climate we were born to. Cold dreich and grey.
Ok why are we still in Scotland.
Honeyb

Why indeed. ;D. Think DD & her partner prefer the heat down south, but their hearts are still in Scotland!

Dry warm with light breeze.

yes same here in the midlands honey b been dry dark and dreary and the rain has just started its that horrible fine drizzle that soaks you :( july you are having a laugh ;D

Real temp 12 degrees, but feels like 7. I'm on here wrapped up in fleecy blanket. No way is my heating going on in July!
-
Summer starts at the weekend ladies! :)
-
Yeh! Will be with family on Saturday. Wonder if granddaughter will allow granny a shot in her paddling pool! ;D
-
Of course she will CG.
I must cut the tags off my new summer clothes. :)
-
Been rubbish here all day.
Started dull then got to full horrible rain.
Supposed to be a heat wave from the weekend, no really....
-
Bet there is no heatwave up here. The sun gets lost north of the border.
The weather suits my mood. Dull and grey.
Honeyb

-
Drolll today - matched my mood :sigh:
-
Not very nice here. Don't think we've seen the sun, grey sky, a few spots of rain when I was driving and cold tonight. If I lived alone I'd have put the heat on tonight. Hubby doesn't feel the cold like me. ::)
-
Why can't our UK weather do the right thing, rain at night and be pleasantly warm and sunny in the day time, during our Spring and Summer ???
Not seen the sun for three days now at first it was cold and raining, today its warmer almost 100% humidity and still raining.
-
It's not our weather's fault though it's the Jet Stream's fault - how dare it not be where it should be!!
Taz x :lol:

You are right Taz, I follow the Met Office on my facebook and this is what they say

HB, oh yea of little faith. ;D
Better be good next Tuesday & Wednesday as heading up from DD's to Loch Lomond.
Have ordered shorts from Next for upcoming heatwave. :)
-
Where abouts on the Bonny Banks CG?
Beautiful spot. We were in Luss on the way home from our holidays. Remember they filmed Take the High Road there.
It was packed.
I like Ardlui. They have some lovely self catering places there but ever so expensive.
It's actually a nice day here today.

Dull here. Warm enough for a walk. That van goes inside if there's even one little spot of rain ;D

Started dull, brightened up nicely by the afternoon.
-
dull all day but at least its mild and dry :)
-
Balloch, HB. Just love that neck of the country! Great views of Ben Lomond there.
Sun has put his hat on, at last. Started warm, but got cooler when it rained.

Balloch is lovely. You can go for a sail. And a shop in Jenners.
Weather was rubbish this morning and warm this afternoon.
Looking up.

Tiny bit damp
But Sunny and Warm

Woke up to glorious sunshine at 7. By 7.45 it had clouded over and stayed the same (you needed a cardi) until just before 12. I went to the market and everybody was complaining because it was predicted a heatwave for today and it isn't. It is now just on 18C but the sun is still not out properly.
-
The good weather not arriving with us until next week.
At least it looks like it might improve. Still dull today.

Hot! 23 degrees out there. Lots of heavy showers though.

Very hot here - lots of sun this afternoon and it looks like being a really warm evening.

Hot!

It finally got up to 24 here but it doesn't feel that hot to me tbh. Still, an improvement :) :)
-
It got up to 16/17C here today, but did not feel warm.
Trey - your hot is really hot.
Not at all like here. ;)
-
Temperature has dropped a fair bit, now it's 14 degrees. At least the sun's out.
-
been 23 here today, wonderful, summers here lets hope it lasts :)

Damp is beginning to fall on the campsite

Sunny Sunny Sunny - 22C

I'm wearing summer clothes!

That's a shame honeyb .... Where do you live?
My son just sent me a pic of thermometer on his window sill and its reading 38c. 8) he hates hot weather ....... We always say that's because he was a winter baby ... He's a Capricorn.
-
I sympathise with your son Penny - there are a lot of us winter lovers about - we even have our own Facebook group apparently!!
Very hot here - husband has been sanding down the outside window frames but had to give up when he sun crept round. They are looking good. He is a perfectionist and it takes soooooo long but does look good at the end of it.
Honeybun lives in Scotland.
Taz x

Indeed I do. West Coast....very pretty but s##e weather. We have a sort of mini music festival taking place in the country park next to where we live. The town is full of festival goers....flowers in the hair (and that's the boys). They will not roast but they will be eaten alive by the famous Scottish midges. They are just flying teeth.
We can hear the music from here. Sounds like fun. My two might sneak in later.
The town is also crawling with police. There is never any trouble so why there is the need for vans full of them heaven only knows. Let the kids have some fun.
Hope the weather picks up tomorrow.

Hot,hot,hot again here today.
26 already this morning! :sunny: :sunny: :sunny: :sunny: :sunny: :sunny:

My car thermometer was on 27C after my dog walk this morning. It's 30C in York where son lives. He will be lying in a darkened room no doubt.
-
Is it the heat or the brightness of summer he dislikes Penny? I can see the sun out in the garden - it is very hot out there - I am staying firmly indoors!!
Taz x
-
Me too. My hay fever is horrendous.
-
I don't get hayfever, thank goodness, fingers crossed, touch wood etc, I just find the bright light and the heat too intrusive somehow. I am trying though, this year, and not telling anyone that I like the Winter. That just leads to lots of strange looks and expressions of horror. I have gone back to agreeing that it is indeed a lovely day.
However..... the longest day has now past so I am freewheeling now back to those lovely Autumny days where "air shivers on the skin" to quote my mum!
The weather here is still lovely - hot and sunny with not a cloud in the sky. The barbecues are all being fired up and strains of Dire Straits from a house somewhere to the left and something violiny from a house somewhere to the right are competing with a lawnmower and a hedge trimmer. Summer is finally here!
Taz x
-
Taz, you are waxing poetic. I think the sun has gotten to you.
I, for once, agree with you on summer heat and blazing sun. I was delighted when the longest day had come and better, gone. This desert sun is awful. My skin gets so dry and I can't walk my dogs, except at 5:30 am.
So, I'm on your side at last. Bring on autumn!
-
Yes - It's a bit of worry! However, a cloud has just arrived so all is not lost!
Taz x ;D
-
Very very hot here too. My aromatic herbs and sweet smelling geraniums are loving the sun.
Just took a pic of them and posted to facebook, trying out my iphone ::)
I have Bees in the garden now :)

Lovely here at last.
After all my complaining about not being able to get out I am going to sit in and watch the tennis.

Supposed to be boiling here but it's not. 18C and thick cloud and no sun. I went to the coast earlier and it is thick fog and everyone has their headlights on.
-
The sun shone; then the fog came down; 2 hours later the fog drifted away - I watched it :o and now it is HOT!
-
Boiling here. My summer-loving friends are grumbling that it's now too hot after saying I was strange to like the winter :D
-
Hotter than forecast today.
It was only supposed to be 22C it got to 25C! 8)
Very nice, but dare I say it, a bit too hot....... :-X

Hot and sunny in Cambridge, off to water the baskets, strawberries and tomatoes....

To hot for me, cannot sit near patio door, as the heat yesterday made my foot swell and the cast felt really tight, had fan on it for an hour before it felt okay :o but at least the sun lifts my mood :) sorry Taz.. 8)

Don't forget Glastonbury! I bet Hurdity is having a good time.

It was fab!! - but it rained on the Thursday so everything turned to sticky mud and wellies needed all day Friday. Then it all baked hard and the grass had disappeared, and we all baked in the sun!
It's been sunny here ever since in the south west - for over a week continuously - barely a cloud to be seen and today temps of almost 30 in Exeter ( I was there for a while today)... Phew. It is very hot but I love it!

The sun is shining brightly here in Suffolk 8)

We ate Greek here outside http://www.olivetreebrasserie.co.uk/
It almost felt like Greece except no view of the sea.
We finished meal with coffee and Turkish Delight (Loukoumi)

These words are not often heard from me.
I am way too hot. I was ok before I started cooking dinner.....now...Oh good grief. I am in melt down and my hair is sticking out in strange angles. I must look quite demented.

Too nice for housework LM.We've got all winter to do that ;D

Hot hot hot
The poor children in school are so hot and grumpy - mirrors the way I feel. What I fail to understand though is that all my colleagues love summer, laugh at me for liking winter, and now just grumble and groan all day about how HOT it is! :D
I would like some fluffy white clouds for Friday please.
Taz x

I think you are going to get them tomorrow Taz. Friday is very hot again.

Well, really hot today
Left car parked at lunchtime, when we came out, car temp was 31C :steamed: :steamed:
It did lower to 28C when we drove for a bit - but that's unthinkable as well.
We have actually shut the curtains in the bedroom today to keep it cool 8)

Sitting outside and currently 24c in garden. Been a lovely day. :)

Thanks Littleminnie - better go and buy a festival hat then!

sooo hot here today not done much in way of housework either leave that till it rains ;)
honey bun iam also well known for loving the sun and the heat but gotta say i think when at home its tiring when on holiday i love it but iam in and out of the pools or sea and that makes a big difference as you say cooking is a nightmare in this heat.
Dont even get me started on frizzy hair ;D mine is waist length and i have bought every product i could and nothing stops it from going frizzy and wavy when its hot so i just tie it up high on top of my head and try to forget its there ;D
-
My darling daughter told me today that I looked like two different people. White legs and very brown top half. She said I gave new meaning to the expression mixed race.
This is coming from the girl who bucks the trend and is interestingly pale.
Time for the fake tan on my legs. I don't often get my legs out. ;D

;D ;D honeybun that also sounds like me, brown and white, have you ever tried the fake tan ? i tried a few (white legs ) but got in a right mess all orange and blotchy and the smell :sick02:

getting back to the weather, disappointed today as its been dull all day and temperature has dropped here in the midlands but they are saying it will be hot again by friday :) at least it will be more comfortable through the night.

Still hot & humid.
Should be less humid tomorrow

I would still like some cloud cover on Friday in Gloucestershire.. please...

I have shivered in the office all day because of the stupid bl**dy air conditioning....

I think it was only about 14 here today. Nothing special at all sadly.

Glorious sunshine here not a cloud in the sky looks like its going to be hot with low humidity :) I woke up this morning with no swollen fingers or ankles and no aching (well improved anyway) it was cooler last night for sleeping
Lovely crisp sunshine my favourite 8)

Back in Scarborough and it's cool and cloudy, most annoying as I know it's hot and sunny back home grrrr. :(

North Wales - Hot and Sunny - Having to water things

Only 14C here and it's been a dull morning ..... however the sun has finally come out at lunchtime so hopefully it might warm up some more.

Full sun in West Mids 8) Had my foot cast of yesterday so can sit out for a while now, getting on to patio though is a fiasco, with swollen foot that will not bend and crutches ;D
Hope its sunny were you are.. :)

Feet up, drink to hand ;)
Warm again. :-*

rosebush not far from you :) beautiful day here in staffordshire

Never got above 14C today and hardly saw the sun. Such a shame as time is marching on. We had 2 lovely days the last Bank holiday and maybe 4 days since then (very far apart) where it's been what I call a proper summers day.
-
We fried in Notts. Simmered in Balloch. Cooler now we're home, but it's a relief.
-
Pennyfarthing - where do you live - it sounds miserable - 14 degrees?
We've had hot hot sun for days and barely a cloud in the sky in SW England.... not complaining though - but I can't resist being out in it!

Norfolk. Don't know what's happened this year because we usually have highest sunshine records in country. It is overcast yet again and they are saying that the sun will burn through at lunchtime. No sign of it yet.
Have been seeing other parts of the country on TV and am very jealous. Last Friday was lovely and so was Saturday and Sunday was fabulous. Since then we've not really had any sun. Can't remember the last time we had rain though - the ground is rock hard and grass is almost dead.
-
I was suprized too about Norfolk as I always remember long hot summers there.
I am sure it is coming though.
-
It's horrid when you see other places basking in warm sunshine. I know what it's like, as we often miss the good weather. However, it's wall to wall sunshine today. Tomorrow they say clouds but will be better by Sunday.
-
Started off cloudy here but now the sun is out again and set to stay that way over the weekend at least :)
-
Update - sun came through about an hour ago and it's now lovely and we're up to 19C. :)

Wish I was at yours PF!
It's 32 degrees in my back garden :o that's nudging 90 in old money :sweatdrop: :meltdown:

Great news Pennyfarthing!
Another hot hot day - around 27 but hotter in the sun, barely a cloud in the sky - and looks set to continue.
I AM NOT COMPLAINING!!!!!!!!! I love it!! Maybe a few showers at night would help the garden and the farmers though....
We haven't had weather like this for several years and it's like when my children were young!

really hot here today 27 but hazy so very humid :( hope the suns out tomorrow as it's meant to be even hotter.
silverlady, i love your melting dog ;D ;D

Am totally envious that some of you ladies adore the hot weather. Pre menopause I was OK with it but the boiling heat we have had is not bearable for me now, I feel drained with it. I like to keep busy and I like to walk but in this heat I am sweating more than ever, feels very uncomfortable and the nights are too hot.
I know I must sound like a misery but I am heat intolerant now and wish the temperatures would come down, being in the car is very uncomfortable.
Meg

Working outside has to be before 9 am as it too hot otherwise - struggling at the moment with 38° yesterday ........melting and not slept last night as it was too warm. Even the late afternoon dip in the pool is a struggle but the water is like getting into warm bath - 10 mins and I've had enough!

Very hot here again and all set for next week too.
For the last few nights it has started to cool when the sun goes down between ten and eleven, so sleep is much easier, I usually put the fan on in the bedroom early evening making sure the curtains, windows and door are shut, it keeps the room cool for bedtime. I open windows wide when I go to bed. Keeping the curtains shut during the day helps too.
Its the weekend again so the Barbies will start, I hate that as the smoke gets on my chest, it really does spoil it for the people who are allergic to the fumes. Good job I don't live in Australia, though the rest of the life is great :)
-
hot hot hot here in midlands and bright sunshine :)
soo hot last night though, came down this morning and our poor dog was asleep on the floor tiles :) and he loves his comfy bed, too hot him x kerrie

I have to agree with meg. I used to love the heat but now being menopausal I cannot stand it. I feel ill today as its so hot, I'm in the midlands too.
-
It must be difficult if you have always enjoyed it before. I've always felt wrong in the heat somehow. The festival I went to yesterday was lovely but so hot. Mind you last year everything subsided under torrents of rain and mudslides!!

Very hot here. There is a breeze but it is a hot breeze ;D
-
I've always struggled with heat and 25 is my limit, beyond which I'm headachey, dizzy and feel ill.
I've spent the last week housebound and confined to 2 rooms which have thermal film on the windows, heat-reflective blinds, heat-blocking curtains, ceiling fans and air-con. It's still 29 deg indoors and barely cools down at night. We've had power cuts due to fuses melting/arcing (apparently).
Out of curiosity, I popped a thermometer in the garden an hour ago and it's 48 deg. I can't stand it.
-
Hot and Humid here today.
Did my normal walk this morning, it was suuuuuch hard work.
And that was only 20C :o
Update
Just realised that the 20C was in the shade of the carport, must have been much warmer outside with no wind
Did I mention it was hot?

What type of house do you live in Karen? Our garden thermometer (in the sun) is reading 46degrees but indoors it is around 20. We have all doors and windows closed which does make it cooler but we haven't got all the other things you have. Do you have a lot of glass? It also sounds as if your air con isn't working very well?

Dull & dreary. 14 degrees. Not a happy bunny.

It's a 1989 build. We have cavity wall insulation, thermal window film (yes a lot of glass - double-glazed and too hot to touch), heat-reflective blinds and curtains, and ceiling fans. But, we face due south, are on the top of a hill and completely open to the rear so get full sun from early morning until sunset.
I'd love to leave the air-con running permanently but it's so noisy and so expensive that I have to use it in just short bursts after which it warms up again quickly, so is followed by another blast. I've always been heat-sensitive and feel it more than most. Oh to live on the coast with a cooling breeze.....
-
It's just too hot for cooking.
Today was just marinading some meat, and microwaving something, dead easy really.
Tomorrow will require more direct, woman and cooker interaction.
B****r
Karenw - beware the coast and the cooling breeze.
Come the autumn, winter, they turn into force 8 freezing gales.
-
Garden thermometer at our home in South Wales is reading 31 degrees. Hubby just ordering Chinese takeaway and then making a huge jug of Pimms. I'm off for a cold shower x ;D
-
Feeling hot hot hot as the song goes ;D
-
:sunny: it's GREAT! We face e/w - so sun rises and lights up the house on one side first thing, then as it moves round it heats the other end of the garden and front of house. So we have shade at all times of day.
-
Limpy is right about the sea breeze. I am on the coast and when it blows it really blows. More often than not in the winter the windows are rattling.
Mind you I love the sea so will put up with a lot. I have been for a rather deep paddle the last few days. Today's paddle was so deep I had wet knickers. ;D
Hubby laughed, he won't go in as he thinks it's too cold. But it feels so nice.
If this keeps up I will get my cozzie on and go for a swim. Bliss.

Sweating like I don't know what :D here is far to hot for me.
-
Very hot here today
It hit 31C in our local town and driving home.
25C in the car port, don't want to say too hot, but it might be
-
23 degrees this morning, but 18 now. It's much more bearable.
-
We were were going out for "Afternoon Tea" but decided it was too hot, so went to Garden Centre (too hot) then onto TESCO where the Air Con
was up high (bliss) and bought all the ingredients for Cream Tea, Cornish Clotted Cream and Strawberry Conserve, to hot to eat outside though.
OH had just popped scones in the oven.
Salmon and cucumber sandwiches to star, with Elderflower Juice to drink.
Earl Grey tea with Scones.
-
We're invited for "Afternoon Tea" tomorrow at son & girlfriend's place. Very nice. I've baked a cake, except keep doing quality assurance testing on it. ::)
So hope it's nice tomorrow.
-
It will be cubagirl:)

I shampooed the lounge carpet this morning and left the patio door open and the windows. Perfect day for doing this. I did it before the sun moved round.
It's been just on 30C here today. I have the house nice and cool - blinds all closed and also curtains and ceiling fan going in kitchen. Plenty of windows open too. It can stay like this until October for me!
-
I have asked for fan, which is up in loft. Still waiting. Meanwhile I sizzle. :sweatdrop:
-
:sunny: :sweatdrop:
it's been lovely - so long as we remained inside with the windows open, curtains closed. Washing out and dried.
Muggy indoors still - off to sit on our patio
-
very hot again :) off to shower now and wash hair, bit fed up of having to wash it everyday, as it's waist length i normally wash it every other day but it's going so frizzy in this heat i have to keep washing it, any tips on calming fly away frizzy hair :-\
-
I would let it be in this weather Kerrie, your hair sounds gorgeous, sometimes wish I had never cut my waist length hair.
Put it in a ponytail :)
Yesterdays heat was unbearable, but today its a little cooler, but gearing up for 31c on Monday and 32c on Tuesday :o
-
Very warm here already. I guess we will be hiding from the heat again today.
It's lovely to waken up to bright blue skies.

I'm amazed 'hose pipe ban' hasn't been mentioned on the news yet.
-
My neighbour would really struggle if there was a hose pipe ban as he is obsessed with his. ;D
He is out playing with it every night. He washes his car in little sections. It can be funny to watch.
I really need to get a life don't I. ::)

Being on East Coast we had overnight fog, which kept temperature down. Pity one of my neighbours car alarm went off 4 times between 12 & 3! But that's another story.
This morning it is 15 degrees, with the promise of 22 by lunch time.
Taz ;D
-
We have breeze and clouds - it's such a relief from the relentless sun - I might even venture out... ;D

A bit cooler today, only a bit though.

no sun so far :( grey clouds and 22, had a good nights sleep last nigh though the wind got up and it was lovely blowing through the house, hope its not the end of summer, rain forecast for next week still high temperatures though, warm and wet :(
Silverlady, washed hair last night and put it in a pony and went to bed with it wet , nice feeling of freedom telling myself, i wont bother drying or doing anything with it, let it be ;D
-
Cooler until about an hour ago, now muggy >:(
-
We've cooled down quite a bit, due to haar rolling in again. Now 14 degrees out there.Unfortunately bedroom still 23 degrees.
-
I am melting, slowly but surely I am going to end up as a puddle and some sandals.
Had enough now, and I know that this will come back and bite me, but can it please get a little cooler. I am fed up being stuck in and around the house. Hubby can't really do much because of his diabetes so the house is it.

It's been much fresher here today - temperature down to around 25 which is much more bearable. I've just got back from a quick trip to the coast which was wonderful but very busy. Had a great paddle and an icecream. I envy those of you who live near a decent beach - it was about 75 miles each way but worth it. We do have nearer beaches but not so nice. I still miss my East Anglian coast.
Taz x
-
It's a 3 hour journey to reach a beach from here <sigh> - otherwise we would whizz down a lot more. We miss the coast :'(
-
Going to make you jealous CLKD.
The beach is three minutes from me.
On a fresh morning I can smell the sea. From our last house I could hear the waves on the beach.
I could not live anywhere else.

In bed and its much cooler tonight, might even turn the fan off!!!
Hope for a good nights sleep

Seems so weird to be posting about hot weather in Scotland these days - makes me realise how many bad summers we've had over recent years. My skin was nipping with the heat yesterday, couldn't sit in it for long. We are about 45 mins from a half decent beach and took the dog last weekend, was lovely. Using a fan in the house and the air con in the car is wonderful. Having to wash our pillowcases every other day!
-
Terrific monsoons then cooler for awhile in the Arizona desert.
-
Much warmer here today, but we also have a nice breeze. Got decent night's sleep last night.
-
Can you book us in for the 2nd week in September HB? Lol
-
Cooler here today, nicely so, 17C in car port.
Some clouds with a pleasant cooling breeze.
Managed full walk this morning.
-
Could bring the camper and park on the lawn ?
It's OK getting to within 20 miles of any coast but on busy days everyone and his dog wants to be there first >:(
Today is overcast
Muggy
Cloudy
Sun keeps trying ........ rain forecast for tonight !
-
18 deg cloudy >:( is that the end of summer for us :-\

Cooler this morning but back to hot as anything now.
Large lawn and big driveway so all welcome and I will show everyone the best paddling spots. Nothing like it for hot feet.

When may I book ;) ......... end of August? ::)
Warm. Bearable. Summer :-*
-
Cornwall is beautiful. The last time we were there we went to the Minach (sp)
Theatre.
We are inclined to stay away from the busy spots at the beach in this weather, just too many visitors. We have a little allotment which is right on the beach, so it's dig a bit and paddle a bit. Great in this weather but not so clever when the wind is howling in and blowing every thing away.
Still hot here and cooking now so the kitchen is roasting.
Honeyb

-
Did you have spuds and peas with your roasted kitchen ;)
Cooler here though promises to be the hottest yet :o
Sky is hazy ...... DH is pruning the grape vine which is threatening to take over the patio ::)
I have the 1st load of washing out ............ will tackle the kitchen before it gets any warmer as the sun shines right in!
-
Over 30° already and it's forecast for 37° today ..... it's already been 39.5° once this week and we don't want it that hot again, so exhausting. Now we need rain - even the water in the pool is evaporating and going murky and green so taking a lot of work keeping it clean ... my OH does this.
Hope you are all enjoying the weather where you are.

Dark dark clouds came over around 11.30 pm last night and huge flashes of lightning and rumblings of thunder which continued after I went to bed - and what joy - I could hear steady rain for around 5 minutes! The garden looks well perked up this morning. However now hotter than ever and still bright sunshine!!

after the grey skys and cooler weather over the last 2 days the heat is back :) 25 this afternoon and sun shining, the forecast was for thunderstorms and rain ::)
Probably be too hot tonight again, but shouldn't moan as we can't have it all can we :)
-
Very grey tonight. We're promised thunderstorms later tomorrow. Could make for a disturbed night.
-
Very warm and humid here.
I love a good thunderstorm. My mum was/is terrified and wonders why her dog is the same :o
My dad obviously did not want me to be the same so encouraged me to watch and count. Still do the same.
If it rains now, I am having an outside soak.....bliss.

If you get a thunderstorm you should get great view over the water HB. My mum said best storm she ever saw was over the island of Arran. Quite spectacular by all accounts. I love watching, but not keen in being out in them. We saw an amazing one in Florida 2 years ago. Night before we left. It was spectacular! We got to shelter with seconds to spare. Daughter, her partner & granddaughter were at Epcot. He got an amazing photo of lightning strike which adorns their hall.
-
We had a few rumbles of thunder in early hours of morning and rain, its still raining and hot and sticky, it feels like you are surrounded by thick air, not pleasant.
Just want warm crisp sunshine 8)

No rain here & still muggy, however there are a few dull clouds lurking overhead.
I best head out for the dog walk soon.
Cazi.

It's wet - rain is ::) ....... thunder is noisey .......... sky is dark. Muggy ............
-
thunderstorms since 4 this morning, just dried up but the sky is very dark so i think another on the way :( still very warm, the forecast is for this all week and i don't like it, never now what to wear if it's really warm but wet :(
-
There's something lurking above us. Wind keeps picking up, then dropping. Skies are darkening from the south. Temperature up & down a bit too. And as I speak the heavens have opened.
-
Thunder and lightening here this morning. It's very muggy and I am tired after a disturbed night. We had a power cut and when the power came back on our house alarm went off. Trying to remember the code number in the middle of the night and in the dark was fun.
Yes I could have turned on the light to see what I was doing but forgot the power had come back on. ::)

Sorry HB ;D That's the kind of thing I would have done too. We didn't sleep well here either. Mind you I knew I had to be up early to let gas engineers into son's place as they were due a service check, but also had a leaky radiator which needed fixing before new guy moves in.
Thunder would help clear the air.
-
Muggy. Will have to shower later. Have been cleaning the bathroom and washing the floor in there - that rooms faces East >:(
-
You can smell the sulphur in the air here >:D
-
I thought I smelt a kind of burning smell earlier. Not like something on fire. But then I used to smell snow when we lived in Inverness. Hubby thought and probably still thinks I've lost it! ;D
-
I can remember being in Italy and smelling the ozone it was so hot.
-
You can smell the sulphur in the air here >:D
Do you know, it's funny you said that I could detect a sort of smokey/bonfire smell in the garden today.
We had some rain the in the night but it didn't wake us. Still very muggy and just an odd rumble of thunder.
-
Its the electricity in the air from the thunder and lightening.

That's what I was thinking, but thought I might sound loopier than normal. :)

Rain fell heavily. Didn't do much good though. Rain off. Pots still dry under the leaves ::) ..... cooler this evening by the ponds, got a cardy on :-X

Lots of thunder last night and torrential rain.

Still no rain or thunder but today is so much cooler and cloudy. Yes! Hopefully it will still be cooler this afternoon for the end of term assembly - I wasn't looking forward to a hall full of sweaty bodies.

My fav months are March and April - so much hope, so much to do outdoors, so many new plants/birds/critters :-*
Warm here, even in the shade ::)

We have fog, but it's actually more clammy than before the thunder of last night.
-
Definitely an Autumn/Winter person. I like the short days. I have no idea why unless I just like scuttling about in the dark ;D

Heavy rain over night. My hand-pegged woollen rug is on the line ......... it went through the wash and spin cycle yesterday and I forgot to bring it in! Dull. Warm.
-
Much fresher here, sunny and warm :)
-
The heavens have opened at last! we have a monsoon downpour.

Had a power cut, its set all the alarms off. Most people are out at work so not being turned off :o
OH is resetting everything.
We have hot sunshine now, crazy weather.

Unbelievably sticky here. Had some rain, but it feels worse. :sweatdrop:

Alternating between thundery showers and impossibility hot sun shine.

Barry was quite a stunner! Lurked in the shadows, he had many followers. We sat and watched him one night whilst eating our evening meal. Many fish schools would congregate under the restaurant, it was on a pier by the way, waiting for some tasty morsels. Before they knew it Barry would pounce! And here was me worrying about the sharks. ;D

Yes Silverlady, we have had air-con for the past 2 years as in 2011 it reached 44° and we just 'lolled' around on the settee, so tired, clammy and felt quite ill. Decided then that whatever it cost, we just had to have it installed. It's made a huge difference ..... in the house it's 22° at the moment.

Pretty hot here today. Blackening skies and some rumbles of thunder now though.

28 today. Kept finding the shade. Lovely when the cooler breeze blew by ..........

been warm here today and clammy then around 5 it started pouring down and it hasn't stopped yet but have to be honest we are still sitting with the patio doors open and can smell the lovely fresh rain smell.
I do hope it stops tomorrow though ;D ;D

Well the monsoons have moved up here. Very black skies.

sun shine and cloud this morning but showers forecast today, back to normal british summer :-\

We have had some rain but no good thunder storms which I like, I like misty and surreal rain too Taz, it can be like that around Ely and it always use to make me think of Arthur and Guinevere, though I am sure they never went there lol.

Another glorious day - the threatened rain didn't fall. The wind was cool when the breeze blew but weather nice enough to sit out. Lovely sky this evening!

Raining. I think summer is over. >:(

Dry for now. But think we've had summer, at least up here. Hoping it is good weather for my holidays at end of month. Looked out lightweight waterproof jacket though, just in case. (http://yoursmiles.org/tsmile/rain/t111006.gif)

It is so strange adapting to the reverse seasons, here in Oz. Right now it's coming into Spring time. Last week-end we had temps of 28 deg. I never feel like it's Christmas here as that's the summer here. Mind you, I went back to Ireland for Christmas, 2 yrs ago and it was freezing/wet/cold and the actual day just went by like a flash! Last year we had loads of people here for Christmas (friends of ours and the kid's) and it was so relaxing until the 20 something's decided to play with water pistols in the pool! Oh well the grass, greener and all that!

Forecast is for rain ;) - here it's drizzling. "In the air" but not doing a lot - yet. Our garden requires a steady 2 day's worth ::) - yesterday I put the hose around plants that haven't seen water for 4 weeks .......... they were dry again this morning.
Now you have 2 people to shout at Honeybun ;D .........
-
I saw Advent calendars last week! >:(
-
Saw crackers, wrapping paper - whoops, other thread ::)
Grey sky, muggy, trying to drizzle
-
Baking hot yesterday
Rain this morning
Bright sun & hot & humid this afternoon.
Typical British weather.

Will you all stop with the tinsel and advent calendar stuff please ;D
Bit grey and miserable here today but no rain.

That's a bit pre-mature ;D .............
Today has been warm and sunny with a chill when the sun went behind a cloud. Threatened rain hasn't arrived - yet :-X

This area was hottest in country today. 19C ... lovely warm sunshine and the last rays are just going down in my summerhouse!
-
Sky came over all black ....... 20 mins before Strictly was due to begin and the PICTURE went off :o .......... fortunately the storm went over post haste! or else ;D .......... heavy rain for 11 mins then ............

Saw hail storm pictures on holiday in Jersey. Remember some time back in the early 70's something similar happened beside my mum. Kids in shorts & t-shirts out playing in it.
Apparently Jersey had 3/4 ft snow drifts earlier this year. Never thought it would get that cold there. Wrong! Though taxi driver did say it was rare.
-
Began with blue skies and cool sunshine, by 12.30 black clouds were ready to chuck rain at us - and they did ::)
-
Feeling very autumnal here today - but off to the Canaries on Friday where the sun will be shining 8)
-
ENJOY! Packed yet?
Drizzling gently. Garden certinaly needs 24 hours of rain ;)
-
Very autumnal here. Went & bought nice cosy jumper today in readiness.

Cool this morning and really hot this afternoon.
Mixed up or what. Been sitting out in the garden with a cuppa.

Drizzle until about 2.30 - now the sun is out ::)

ENJOY! Packed yet?
Haha, no - plenty of time for that on Friday morning :)

I'd have been packed by now. Lol. Have a good time.
Autumn is definitely on its way, it was quite chilly first thing this morning.

Freezing here. Yep heating on again. I fessed up this time though. ;D

Lovely and warm today but heavy rain tomorrow.
Get colder at night though. Off to put on the newly serviced heating.

Must be cold hubby put heating on. ;D

FAB sun set right now :-*
Fine enough to work in our garden today

A tad on the breezy side. Though I expect in Honeybun's neck of the woods it's wild today. Batten down the hatches ladies, we're in for a wild one.
-
Stay nice and cozy inside, quite like a wild one cubagirl :)
Its dark here with rain "Twilight" Forks weather I think, rains all the time there.
-
We were expecting an awful (wet & windy) weekend but it's OK. Walked the dog without wearing my coat today and the sun has been shining all morning. Now clouded over but not bad at all.
-
The rain is just getting to us in Hampshire now Penny - I don't think it is supposed to get to you until late afternoon/early evening. It's pretty wet in the South West though http://www.woolacombe-surfboard-hire.co.uk/index.php?main_page=page&id=13&zenid=0ac474ed187c389c328fac065edd8fbf

Wild wet and windy. Wakened up about 3am with the rain battering off the bedroom window. Some branches down and few ferries running. Tussled with the car on my way down to mum's as I have to go along an exposed coast road.
Worse to come I think.
Oh joy.

Getting cooler in the desert now. Huge billowing clouds this time of year. Temps still high in daytime but lovely cooler nights.

My friend in North Wales just phoned and said that the sun has now come out and the storm seems to have passed.
Taz
-
Heating has been on since 10.30 a.m. Yesterday's washing is blowingon the line. In the drizzle ......... worse to come, thank goodness I'm not in the Great North Run :o

The sun is out here too. Still more rain to come though.
Honeyb

Windy and squally here - lovely and Autumnal! Sorry.
Taz :D
-
Have to say it's not been as bad as expected here. They reported in local paper that temperature would be like 4 ° with wind chill. It's been warmer than that. Think it's to get more stormy here this time tomorrow.
-
Sunny here but still very windy.

The rain arrived here about 4pm and it's quite windy now.

We gave in at weekend HB. Ours comes on when temp gets too low. Of course depends on what you set it at. But ours set at 21° anything lower up here would have you chittering. ;D We've put it on for quick bursts occasionally, but now on. It's a chilly 11° out there.

Cold, wet, and windy.

No rain today
Washing blew hard but didn't seem to dry :-\
WONDERFUL sunset right now :-*

Much cosier with heating on, isn't it? ;)

Put heating on last night and again tonight. Can't stand feeling cold. I get miserable and very nasty to be around. ;D
-
So do I - I get 'ratty' when cold ::)
Consequently the heating is rumbling round the system as I have clothing to air before we go away and need a warm bathroom for later ;). It is drizzling HARD >:(
-
Gales and rain - the first for months!
-
Dark. Drizzling hard. Chilly. :-\
-
Hasn't been too bad today. Put on my new gilet to shops. It was a bit chilly, but not too bad.

Cold and rainy this morning but better now. Not be dark for about another hour though. I hate it when the daylight fades early.

Well I'm beginning to wonder if I'm a bit odd. I am a cold person but honestly today it is glorious - 18C and sunny and I wore some jeans and a long sleeved lacy tunic. I had a cardi in my bag but didn't need it.
People were dressed in fleece tops, big coats and I couldn't believe it. They're all dressed like they're expecting snow.
-
Maybe thought it was going to be colder than it actually was PF. Its not too bad here today. Breezy, sunshine & the odd sharp shower. Typical autumn weather really.
-
Put my summer clothes away this morning so we will be in for an Indian Summer now ;D
-
Most of mine were put away yesterday. Now they're saying it's to be toasty this weekend. Typical! ::)
-
My summer clothes have now been packed away too. Mind you I always leave out a couple of things that I can wear under other things.
It's been bloomin cold here today.

It's been dry
Tomorrow it will rain, back to normal then.......

CG - how did you do that clever rain symbol?
Quite apt for around here as it has bucketed down this morning, not as windy though

Used a Smiley's app. One of our ex members used to be amazing with her smileys, always managing to find an appropriate one.

Looks pretty good.
Will go look now
Thanks you
-
Raining and cold here. The heat just came on (on timer) and it will be staying on until I warm up! :)
-
It was really cold here earlier. 10° Had to put heating on for a short time. I tried with extra jumper, but was still freezing.
-
Indian Summer has returned :bounce: lots to do out there ::) but I got too warm ;D

Nice and cloudy here.... but not cold .. that's coming later....

Apparently it's 18° out there. Try telling my body that! ???

The temperature starts to drop from tomorrow, 12 degrees. It's been 18 today.

12° I wish. We've to get 8°

:na: at least we had a gentle dusk drifting into darkness ;)
Roll on the morning so I can see if it's going to be :sunny: again .......

It's ok I do love the sun this time of year CLKD - I like it rainy or cold or dull or sunny just as long as it is Autumn or Winter and the days are nice and short. This morning I watched the day begin and then tonight I watched the day finish - it sort of rounds things off nicely being awake for both.
Taz :)
-
Its still warm and sunny here and no heating on and windows open, but DM says by the weekend it will be colder then St Petersburg :o
Good old DM :)

Well it's 15 degrees there at the moment which isn't too bad is it? 8)

In the past half-hour the weather has changed, complete overcast, a strong wind and rain and the temperature has plummeted.

Blowing up a storm, freezing cold. Soon be winter Taz! ;) 6 degrees in the wind. Brrr

It's got really cold tonight. The heating has gone on. That's the first time it's been on before 7pm.
Think it's going to go back on its timer now so the house is warmer in the morning. Autumn has finally arrived. Role on summer. Sorry Taz.

Dreadful weather here today (London). I can't face months of this :(
New boiler is going to have to perform well!

Don't worry oldsheep - I managed to survive the long, hot summer and have now come out the other side and am basking in this lovely, wet tempestuous Autumn weather. You too will survive and live to see Spring and Summer weather again.. but don't bring it on too quickly please. :)
Taz x
-
Really cold here first thing. Unlike HB my heating has been on well before 7pm most days. Now it's a bit brighter.
-
Very cold this morning but bright and sunny. Managed to get the kitchen door open first thing but I was frozen from my feet to my knees.
I think there was a little frost last night.
I don't mind true autumn days it's the grey skies that get me down. Bright and crisp is lovely.
Autumn sun sits lower in the sky and makes the islands on our coast line so very clear. The nearest is a few minutes away by ferry the furthest 50 mins. In the autumn light they are so close. I can see all the little villages that you can't see in the summer.
The local saying is if you can't see an island it's raining and if you can it's about to rain. ;D
Honeyb

-
Oh I remember that phrase HB. ;D Also rain in west coast just hangs in the air.
-
Cold, windy and wet I can handle - it's the snow I hate. Dread driving in it and if I walk I turn beetroot with the cold and the effort of trudging in it. Wish I could hibernate when it comes.

It's still raining here but it's so lovely and cosy inside with the little table lamps all glowing and all three sons home for the afternoon while it begins to get dark outside. I love it when they are all here together - nowadays it's not very often that I know where they all are!!

Loads of rain this morning but by 2 this afternoon brilliant sunshine. Quite windy though with the leaves all tumbling off the trees. It makes the children in school really hyper.

When I used to have riding lessons, wind really used to spook the horses.

Very wet this morning, then suddenly the sun came out :-*

Apparently: according to the weather girl: there will be grass frost this week ......... so the fuschias, geraniums, less hardy plants will be OK then :-\ ???

Hubby denied there was ground frost yesterday, despite temp being 2°. Today is an improving kind of day. Watery sunshine & wee bit milder. Begonias still OK so far.

Lovely and sunny today,quite mild too :)

There is a huge rainbow against a dark sky: in front of which are trees which have turned yellow and bronze - in front of these is a deep maroon acer ...... the effect is stunning with the sun against it all. Our bathroom window as I walked up the stairs is back lit with deep gold ....

It is 61 degrees F here now just after 8 am. We had a cool front come in on the weekend. Yesterday when I went to get groceries it was around 77 F at 2 or 3 pm. Fall and early Spring are our less intense/ best seasons here. That is when everyone wants to have their weddings.

Same here CG as you know. Lucky if we get a warning let alone the Prime Minister talking about it ::)
Three years ago our village was cut off due to floods and high winds. My son was working in our next nearest town and could not get home. Some very kind policemen gave him a lift in their 4x4. They came through the country park next to us. Don't know what the neighbours thought if they saw him being dropped off in the middle of the night. ;D

Its raining here with a slight wind, we missed the storm, looks pretty grim in some parts of the South and East though.

Thank goodness it's next week I'm heading to Notts! Mind you when I went this time last year, weather was awful. The wind down there was bad. Pilot must have worked hard to land plane as we were getting buffeted and I thought we'd end up landing on the M1 instead. ;D
However, I do feel for those you who have suffered storm damage. Never good.

84 degrees F right now. It has been sort of an overcast day though. It was strange to drive home at dusk tonight rather than frank daylight. We changed our clocks back this weekend and I was off yesterday so I didn't have the realization of the time change on the drive home. I guess fall is really here now! :)
I can't imagine snow :o.....we get a small dusting about once a decade if that....more likely to have an ice storm.

No rain at all was forecast, secure in this knowledge I put a big wash out to dry.
It was nearly dry after 3 hours, when the heavens opened.
I rushed out to bring it in before it got too wet, whereupon I dropped a sheet, in the mud, oh and trod on it. >:(
The day started so well ::)
Nearly forgot to mention - Fresh Snow on the mountain top on the other side of the valley. Thought of Taz when I saw it

-
Heavy, heavy, cold rain this morning.
This lasted till about 1.30, now it's just grey and depressing.
-
Grey. Drizzle. Now very dark and raining ........
-
Feels very cold here tonight but I am tired and feel the cold more.
Grey and the kind of damp that gets into your bones.

I agree! Keep watching the News, we have a friend in the Phillipines :'(
-
Its dark cold and large hail stones are falling outside :o
Now its thunder and lightening.
-
Rain and then sun and now drizzle. Hopefully that thunder has passed us by!

Cold, frosty start. Now looks like rain.
-
POURED until mid-afternoon, we were meeting a friend not seen for 7 months for a walk this morning: took the camper instead and had a picnic inside in the warm. Sharp frost threatened across the UK tonight >:( certainly the air has been icy cold all day.
-
We had rain this morning, it stopped around midday so was able to go for a walk.
Very chilly now and a bit blowy.
More snow on the mountain top opposite.
Usually happens about this time of year and lasts till April / May ish.................
-
:o snow should stay where it is : on the tops of mountains ;)
-
My goodness snow! I miss the idea of it and the fun we had with the kids in it but not the reality of it. I am going to be rotten and tell you that it's lovely and warm so we're having bbq for son's birthday (19). The weather is certainly heating up ::)
-
Well we've got sun today too! The downside is that's it's only 7 degrees. Enjoy your barbecue.
-
Sunny but cold....rain due later, again!
-
Bright blue skies all day :-*
-
The first frost of the season - lovely crisp cold sunny day and beautiful autumn colours as the trees finally start to turn after our hot summer and mild autumn. I love days like this!

Freezing cold wind. Brrrrr
-
Now very windy with rain.
What joy ::)

We had a cold front....46F....and my back is hurting....it always starts up with low barometric pressure changes.
I don't do well with cold weather.

Sorry to do this andius but it's going to be 26 deg centigrade today and 30 tomorrow. I like this weather but not in the 40's as we get sometimes.

Wasn't too bad today, but it's to get colder. They say snow, but doubt we'll get it on the coast, it's really not been cold enough.
-
Tuesday it's going to get really cold here. Hate the winter.
-
Chillier than yesterday, but pleasant enough. Managed to do some tidying in garden.
-
I don't mind autummn and winter or the cold at all - but hate the dull grey still featureless days - like it was today here in Southwest England. I like bad weather to be a bit dramatic - but not dangerously so, obviously!

Pleasant - Started cloudy but brightened.
It was dry, which makes a big difference.

Unrelenting grey skies. It's enough to get anyone down.

It's been quite dreich your side of the country. Snow coming your way soon. Will white do? ;D

Had a strange day today.....unusually warm at 88 F or 31.111 C ( I looked it up and it converted to celsius ;) )
This may be our last warm spurt of fall.
My husband and daughter ran in a marathon race and they both did well.

Wet today- back to normal ::)
Snow forecast for later this week :-\

Damp and dreary here today but not cold at all.

Brass monkeys. Brrrrr at least it's dry.

You need something to keep you warm HB! ;D Doesn't actually look like it's going to be as bad as predicted. However..........

I can always hope CG. I could do with a break from my mother so a lot of heavy snow would be great especially as I live up a very steep hill. ;D

Ok, so now it looks less likely to snow.
Still felt awfully cold when getting out of the car this afternoon.
-
9 in our Toyota today. Damp and dull :-\
-
9 - We aspired to 9.
We got down to 4 when coming back over the tops / moors this afternoon.
It was 6 when we got back, but it still didn't feel flash.
-
We got to the dizzy heights of 5°. Currently a very chilly 2°.
-
witnessed first frost this morning, neighbour was clearing his windscreen .......... clouds moving in, probably snow ??? :o

No snow, lots of heavy frost though.
Honeyb

-
We got snow! :na: Not a lot, but it looks pretty in the sunshine.

Frosty and very cold. Sun is out. 4 degrees today. Need to dig my jumpers out.

Still lots of winter to come.

There's snow on all the mountains opposite.
It was white around the house, hail. Looked pretty but it's melted now.
Chilly, it was 1° at at 7:45 this morning, rocketed up up a massive 3° now.
-
It's absolutely beautiful weather here in York - cold, crisp and clear - I just wish I could be out in it instead of stuck in a stuffy, over-heated office.
-
We have some mountain snow too. Looks stunning in the sunshine.
It's very very cold though.

Went to M&S today and bought a long thick polo neck jumper to wear with leggings, and be prepared for the snow and cold weather to come, but am taking it back on Thursday as it is scratchy round my neck ::)
-
Deep colours cross the sky, usually the sign of frost in the morning ::)
-
I used to always wear polo necks in winter, but can't stand them round my neck anymore. So now wear lightweight snoods, which I can take off if I get uncomfortable.
-
Went to out to usual local for lunch today.
Had to change our route due to snow on the roads we normally use, car didn't cope.
Managed ok but wasn't straightforward.
Supposed to the rain and wind tomorrow.
Still feels very chilly now.
-
Snow!! How amazing!! No frost at all here in SW England but we were promised it and some snow showers - all we had was a big hail shower first thing and then brilliant autumn sun all day. Lovely!
Hurdity :sunny:
-
NO SNOW NOT YET PLEASE ::) ....... mid-Feb. is early enough ;D
From this room I can see the cars: thick layer of frost ........ must buy more straw for the chickens' run tomorrow .........
-
It's ok, getting milder for now. Very windy though.
-
I'm sure we had a tonado in York this morning!! I was walking to my office from the station - wet, but not exceptionally so and with just a little wind ..... then all hell broke loose!! Very sudden, very strong and noisy wind, hail-stones the size of petit-pois so heavy it made it look foggy - then gone, as suddenly as it arrived! Definitely fit the description of the type of tornadoes that are most common in the UK.
-
We are in the middle of a ferocious storm right now :o .......... day began with bright sunshine after over-night frost, then the sky went BLACK: now it's chucking it down .......... haven't seen the kitten yet this morning, hopefully he is tucked up in the shed next door! Crickey, wind just changed direction from going up the street to down the street - now there is sleet and snow and rain :o
-
Blue skies and sunshine here and a wind that would cut you to the bone.
It's so cold.

Was Rainey and dull, quite cold but sun came out a while ago unfortunately wind has picked up too, sun not on house now it came out to late for that.,so have just put the heating on for a bit to warm up! I hope all you ladies have swapped your electric and gas to a fixed one I done mine on compare web and it's now fixed to 2017.
-
Sun came out for a couple of hours, now raining again and very cold :o ........ fished out the gloves, hats, scarves earlier and now have 2 polo necks on: one acrylic mix and the other 80% wool - jeans, knickers, long acrylic/wool socks, slippers ........... when we go out later I will add another top layer, hat, gloves ...........
-
Looks like the end of the world out there today.
-
CLKD - could walk when you went out? Lol
-
Of course - it was the top layer to which I added ;)
Blue skies all day. Fresh air. Clear. :) Followed at T-time by drizzle :(

I best make a start on the Christmas shopping then.
-
I just put snow shovel on the list and tea light candles ready for the black outs, should we make a list for things to get in for a long
hard snowed in winter? ??? before the Preppers :)
-
How can the forecasters know what will happen over the next few months when they can't always get it right a few days ahead?
-
Well they didn't get it right last week. We were to get 4inches where we live, all we got was a dusting. Daily Express often get it very wrong. Let's hope they're wrong again.
-
11 degrees C here....winter has reached us! It has been raining off and on too, but not today THANKSGIVING DAY. I really like how my frizzy hair behaves in cold weather though.....it seems to reduce by half!!
Andius
-
Forecast was rain. Bright sunshine, cloudless. Yesterday was supposed to be wall to wall sunshine & it was dull. If they can't get it right day to day, how on earth are they predicting 3 months of snow!
-
It's grey and Novembery :)
Taz x
-
Same here and the wind has picked up - the autumn leaves blowing everywhere look very pretty :)
-
There is no way they can accurately predict the weather for the next 3 months, despite what certain publications (I can't bring myself to call them 'newspapers'!) say! Weather these days is forecast using a vast number of computer models - current conditions, Atlantic pressure systems, the jet stream, etc are all put into the models and they spit out what the computer calculations say will happen ... for a few days, the results are all pretty similar (short-range forecasts are usually not far wrong), then the results start to diverge. By 2 weeks out, there's very little correlation between the models, and by a month away there's no pattern at all - anything could happen!!! I have no doubt that those 'certain publications' will wheel out 'worst weather on record' stories every couple of weeks between now and next April (interspersed with consipiracy theories about deaths in Paris tunnels)!!

Snow shovel still on my TESCO list :)

Dull & dreich!
Sky weather mentioned icy blast from next weekend. Cold is one thing, it's the snowy conditions I don't like. Looks pretty though.
-
The Daily Express made me chuckle the other day. They had a photo of an icy lake ringed with frost. There was snow on the ground and hoar frost on the trees. The line was "Britain faces weeks of this.." and I thought "Wow! Who would have thought it - weeks of this during the WINTER whatever next"
Taz x ;D
-
:clapping: brilliant blue sky today, fresh air and yep, Autumnal - who'd thunk ;)
-
Really nice.
Not much wind, blue skies and chilly sun.
Didn't hurt to go for a walk.
-
Dry, mild but dull. Even done a bit of gardening.
-
I did some gardening yesterday, cleared an area and redug it over the re-planted and set new aconite bulbs.
Today began with brilliant sun against a blue sky; now cloudy and duller :(
-
Very grey and still - pretty much dark now

We have a weather warning in place for storm force winds. Made sure all is secure in the garden and just have to hope it will not be as bad as predicted.
Candles and torches at the ready.

Think you've to get it worse than us HB. Although it is getting a bit blowy out there. Freezing cold too.

Another day of changeable weather, bright earlier then fading to dull, dull, dull ::) ....... not particularly cold though ........

Not bad today, chilly and still.
Unlike tomorrow when all hell is forecast to breakout, though probably not as bad here as in Scotland.
We expect the phone and electricity lines to go down.

Heavy snow by lunchtime apparently. See Central Station has been evacuated due to debris crashing through the roof!

Fingers crossed for you Ellie - where's your 'baby'? Ours is 3 miles south of Hornsea - we're planning on spending New Year there too.

I hear on the BBC Radio 2 travel news that the weather is ruff up North :o and although clear skies here, the wind is building up and blustering around the house. Haven't seen our chickens for a while :-\

Scampi ,ours is in Scarborough..Last New Year's Day , we spent the day in Whitby, is was a cold crisp sunny day, we sat on the pier with our fish and chips :D.....

It's starting to calm down here. Think we have been quite lucky as there is no damage. Different story just 12 miles away. Mother has lost a lot of plant pots and my niece has lost the children's trampoline. Sisters neighbour has lost a hut which demolished a greenhouse.
Artic winds next and snow. Oh what fun.

Very very windy from about 3am to Noonish today, oh with heavy rain as well.
Combined with a temperature of 5C max this was a total delight. We had to go out at about 9am this morning and large branches were strewn across the road, had to keep stopping the car to clear them out of the way.
Last might we could hear something heavy rolling down the roof before it got light.
As soon as we could see OH went outside with binoculars to see if anything obvious had happened to the roof.
All he could see was a large lump of mortar lying in the gutter but nothing obvious round the chimneys or elsewhere. However, one of the walls in the kitchen is soaking wet, so something appears to have come off somewhere.
The good news is that the power and phone stayed on, but the broadband speed plummeted to 350 kbs.
Oh well, I suppose we can't have everything......
-
wind dropped around T-time.
Chooks took themselves off to bed early ::)
washing remained on the line
-
Wind gradually dying down at last. Very icy out though. As for hanging out washing, mine would have been in orbit by now. ;D I didn't even venture out to tumble dryer.
-
Ice storm in Texas tonight. Temp was 75 yesterday, 33 tomorrow!
Hmmmmmmm.....what are chooks????? ???
-
Chooks = chickens ;) ours are egg layers. The 1st 3 purchased 7 years ago were hybrids, bred for the sole purpose of laying eggs, 300 each a year :o. The next 3 are pedigree so don't lay as many and are more grumpy when in moult ::)

Boston in Lincs was flooded :o all that way from the sea - about 2 miles if I remember ........
-
I'm about 10 miles inland from Coast so no probs here except a couple of trees down in our horses field. I've taken dog out this morning and there are a few wooden signs and noticeboards down.
However, on the coast there are wrecked beach huts, a couple of bungalows washed away and large sections of the promenade knocked down. Some shops and businesses have been flooded, as has the lifeboat station.

One Lifeboat station has been swept into the sea :o on the East Coast! I remember in the 1980s when the pine trees along Wells were shattered by bad weather ........ we spent many hours playing there as kids :'( .......... over the bank from the car park which is now a caravan park and into the dunes ..........

Just down the road from where we went away in February - also some lovely little houses along a stretch called "the Marrams" - so sad for all the people that owned property there :'(

I thought that these were holiday homes though, one man has said it was his permananet address :-\. We walked along Sea Palling earlier this year, wonder what happened to those properties with only a sand bag between them and the sea!

blue sky
not a breath of wind
soft white clouds
pink where the planes are flying over as the sun sets ...... you know, the trails of 'steam' from behind

Dull, but quite pleasant temperature wise. Planes here don't have contrails, too much cloud cover. :)
-
Oh clever word ;) ....... we are enroute for Luton, Birmingham and Manchester so get lots, high in the sky ........ can sit in our garden guessing where they might be going to ;D and feeling so glad I'm not up there with them ::)
Dark. Another day done - lovely sunset earlier :-*
-
Rained today - wasn't forecast, also quite blowy and chilly.
-
I remember lying in garden watching contrails at my mums years ago. Stayed near Glasgow airport, so more traffic. Ah long hazy, crazy days of summer.....
-
Planes are rare here. We get a few that are destined for Prestwick Airport and I do mean a few.
We have a helicopter that comes over at the same time every day. It's an air sea rescue one and in the summer I wave and they wave back. They fly very very low ;D
I am sure I would recognise the pilots face.
It's very mild here today. Such a change.

FAB U LUS sunset this evening :-* after a mainly calm day. Light chilly breeze when by the lake otherwise a lovely Autumnal day.

Been no sun here, as usual. Just usual dull, dank & bleugh! ;D

Fog fog and more fog. I can hear all the planes going round and round in their holding pattern waiting to get into Heathrow and can't help thinking of all the hundreds of people circling over head - it must be so frustrating!
Taz x
-
Holding pattern is a nightmare! You see the airport, well on a clear day anyway, but takes forever to land. We had to do it at Gatwick couple of years ago. It was very bumpy & daughter nearly needed the wee bag. She was green! Turned round & son's GF was just as green!
-
Cloudy then foggy then some sunshine now foggy again ......... (another reason not to fly :-\ )

Been slightly hazy, but no fog here. Quite mild.

Last night was the mildest December night for 50 years according to the forecast.
Still mild tonight. Not sure this is what I want for December but at least it's good for the heating bills.

Even up here our bills are benefitting. Around £1 per day for gas & elec. No complaints from me. Mind you when it gets really cold it will be considerably higher, but cheap days will more than make up for them.

Horribly windy - minimum 60 Mph gusting to 78 Mph, slates and bits of roof are coming off.
It's now starting to rain, the hope is that the wind will ease as the rain passes through.
Trouble is, rain and dodgy roof are not a good combination.

Hope it soon passes Limpy! Dull and grey here - the wind is getting up a bit though. It was supposed to be bright and sunny.

Awful here (west Wales0. Really strong, blustery winds and the rain started about noon. OK for me as I don't have to go anywhere but my husband has a 30 minute drive down country roads to work shortly. :(
-
Pretty awful here. Our up & over garage door decided to blow down again a second before I was about to put car away. Near miss! Hubby put car in whilst I held door up. Never had that happen before. Gusts are really strong!
-
Catdude you sound not too far from me, I'me nearish to Capel Curig.
The thing is the weather forecasters kept on emphasising the winds in Scotland and Ireland, very little about Wales. Good luck to your husband on his trip to work. Winds still horrendous here, Capel Curig has been getting gusts of 81 mph :o
-
Still blustery ........... colder too :o

Calmed down a bit now, but think it's to get blustery again tomorrow. Fab!

Garden is a mess, there was terrific crash yesterday teatime, the small green house was lifted and smashes against the wall, luckily it was not a window, now its at the bottom of the garden with plants scattered along with all the other stuff that was in there.
Chairs and table scattered too, it was a freak gust of wind that did it.
-
:( :hug:
-
Limpey - we're further south than you, between Newcastle Emlyn and Llandysul but we're very high up so tend to catch the winds. Know what you mean about Wales not getting a mention - quite often the case on the news and on the weather I've noticed!
Still wet and blustery today but not as bad as yesterday.
-
I had washing out for a while, then realised pegs were pinging everywhere. So it ended up in dryer.
-
As we drove further South the weather deteriorated :-\ ………not cold but blowing hard and drizzling, rain expected for 3 days :sigh:

I had washing out for a while, then realised pegs were pinging everywhere. So it ended up in dryer.
Cubagirl Know what you mean.
I had thought, from several forecasts, it would be dry, knew about the wind but thought it would be good for drying - wrong !
Said wind wrapped washing tightly around line, then after 45 mins it started p----ng down, again.
Good news is that it was okish to put in the utility room
-
It got very windy around lunchtime and rained very hard for a while. Dry now and the wind has dropped.
It's just this constant grey that gets me down.

Catdude - we are a bit further north than you. One thing about being higher up (altitude), we get the views, but we also do tend to catch the wind. Again, nobody mentioned Wales in the weather forecasts!
OH went up on the roof today, before the wind got up to try and fix slates up again. He did this very efficiently. No way I could even think of doing it, however the wind and the rain has got up again

Beeb weather app is pretty accurate, compared to most.

With the Beeb think it depends on which forecast you use.
TV, Radio Internet.
The Beeb TV are usually OK, but we tend to use internet, where they haven't been so reliable for us.
Having seen comments, will look at BBC app for smartphone

However, Taz it's probably not been cold enough of late for you & no sign of a white Christmas either. In fact looks like heavy rain for the big day, up here at least. A wee trip to Iceland maybe is on the cards Taz. ;)
-
Ha ha - I have always wanted to stay in the Ice Hotel!! However, it is not the cold but the length of day which I love, that, and the way you can see the shape of the trees without their leaves on and how everything seems to be just waiting somehow - sort of suspended.
Trey I have reverse SAD but from what I have read this is always linked into depression but I disagree!!

Ladies, I think we need to take up a collection to purchase a truckload of snow for Taz for Christmas. It's the least we can do for someone who clearly has issues with leafless trees and short days.
As to the rest of you ladies, I just heard on the TV that we had a record warmth today, warmest since 1939 and you are all welcome at my home to soak up the rays.

Bet it's still warmer than here though Trey. Wind chill would cut you in half today!
-
No - I would never send a weather curse to you Trey - I like to think of you basking in the warmth of the sun while I bask in the warmth of the pub fire.....

How's weather on west coast? It's very wild in the East. I've wedged wheelie bins at back of house. Huge tree across the road from us - hope it stays upright. Hard to tell if it would hit us if it came down, but it would sure do a lot of damage on the way.
-
Blustery. BAD weather on the way :o - seasonal then ...........
-
We have a power cut at the moment. It went off at 6 fortunately the dinner was almost cooked so we had a meal of sorts. Everyone grumpy and snapping at each other. Its a fallen tree according to Scottish Power. Hope it comes on very soon or I may be very tempted to hit hubby very very hard
Honeyb

-
How are you typing then ? ???
It annoys me how often I go to tunr on a light switch when the power is off ;D
-
I was on my phone CLKD. After a few false starts the power is now back on.
The wind is getting very strong again. Think it's going to be worse a bit further north than us but I am very glad we have power and heat.
Wouldn't be surprised if it went off again. Every time it comes on our burglar alarm goes off. Oh what fun
Honeyb

-
AAAHhhh - technology goes by me these days ;D
-
Wet and very windy. I hope my outside Christmas Tree doesn't blow away, it cost me a fortune!
-
My poor plants and trees are getting battered. I have lost all but one of my plumes from my pampas grass and no doubt that will be gone by the morning .
Getting fed up with the storms now.
Honeyb

-
You would not believe the state of the garden! And I can't see the little green house when I looked through the French Windows. It's calmed down now.
-
Wheelie bin is on its back, it can stay there! Everything else holding firm for now. :)
-
It's bin morning for us but no chance of putting it out. It would end up in a field.
Hope none of us have any damage.
Honeyb

-
A calm and starry night now - the gale blew through quite quickly down here. Hope that everyone is ok further up!
Taz x
-
Terrible again in west Wales. I battled through floods, round branches and just hoped the wind didn't blow me off the road getting home today. My husband is on a late shift so I'm just hoping he gets home safely although it does seem to have eased off a little now.
-
Much calmer today. Still breezy but we have some sunshine. Outside only damage is a broken solar light. Got off lightly.
-
Never heard a thing ::) ...... blue skies, calmer this morning, have hung back the decs that were blown off the trees in the garden last week .........
-
Still very windy but nothing compared to last night.
The tide is very high and the sea looks amazing but for once we have some sunshine.
Honeyb

-
Blue skies and sunshine here in Suffolk, getting cold though brrrrrrr......
-
Windy and wet here today, but nowhere as bad as yesterday, which again was horrendous, really string winds gusting 80 mph (AGAIN) and torrential rain.
We bottled out and went to stay near a favourite restaurant so we could have a nice meal and listen to somebody else's property getting damaged. The wind and rain / hail were horrible, the broadband kept going down.
Had a smashing meal, but the bed was one of these fashionable wooden ones which OH kept on walking into and bruising his knee. He is much happier now we are home and know there is no major damage, just another damaged slate.
-
A twenty degree F drop here and windy. I find wind very agitating. Oh well it was fun while it lasted. Trying to plan RV trip and watching the weather. Tornados in area of choice so will wait.
-
Thought Tornado season would be finished by now. Wind agitates me too, but only when it's really stormy.
-
In bed with my ipad, listening to the wind and rain outside and feel very cosy much nicer then sitting at my computer and posting.
-
It's really cold here tonight and blowing its usual gale.
You sound really cosy SL. I may just join you.....Well not actually you ;D
Honeyb

-
Been bitter today. Calmed down a bit now. Fed up with wind. ;)
-
Another stormy night, lots of rain and very grey today - yuck! Will get the fire lit early today!

Sunny, windy and very mild.
-
Stormy last night.
Alternating rain and calm today.
OH went out on small flat roof this morning to do gutter and wind blew ladder over when he was on roof, luckily it caught In tree!
-
Rain rain and more rain and still a bit windy to but mild.
Lucky you noticed the ladder Limpy,otherwise he would have been stuck!
-
More rain, more wind and now thunder and lightning :o
-
Lucky you noticed the ladder Limpy,otherwise he would have been stuck!
Sadly, I didn't notice his plight, he was able to retrieve the ladder himself.
I was in the shower, doing female maintenance type things, so he could have been stuck outside for hours before I would have gone searching. He often finds things that need doing outside, I really wouldn't have noticed he was missing.
Ho hum
-
Just walked the dog...very windy & getting cold, may have wintry showers Xmas Eve they are saying, which will be nice.
-
Although it's been a bit blowy & we've had some squally showers, it's not as cold as it has been.
-
Not too bad here today. I think Monday is to be a wild one again.
Honeyb
x
-
Never known so many big storms back to back. It's relentless.
-
It just seems never ending, next Friday looks bad as well :o
-
Quite nice today. Bit of sunshine, slight breeze, washing out.
-
Heavy rain last night & early morning - then the sun came out - which was nice.
-
It's really cold here today and quite windy. Temperature is only 3degrees but it feels much colder.
Honeyb
x
-
Brrrr it's getting so cold.
-
For 4 nights the wind has got up and blown really hard for hours! Fortunately gone by morning. We planned a walk in bright sunshine but by the time we had eaten breakfast and sorted out coats, the sky was BLACK and the heavens opened :o ………. then the air got colder as the day went on …….. seasonal then?
-
Here in Sussex it blew a hooley all night :o …….. drizzled intermittently. Not cold.
Wow down my neck of the woods again CLKD... Where did you go? Arundel, Chichester or further East like Brighton/Hastings.
It does get windy along the south coast sometimes.
-
It's in the Holiday 2013 thread
-
"Home ;) : back from Lewes and Brighton, called in for a light-lunch at Petworth on the journey home:
away again on C.mas Eve though"
Glad you had fun CLKD!
Taz x
-
I don't know if fun was the word I would use but we enjoyed ourselves. After I had fallen heavily in the dark and picked myself up ………. we walked miles and miles and ……..
-
Well thank you Taz xxx.
See CLKD it wouldn't have been that too hard to please an oldun like me would it. :D
Now Petworth.... mmm antiques CLKD, tell us more (or should I go to the Antiques & Collectables Thread) ;D ;D ;D
-
It's in the Holiday 2013 thread
That's not specific.
Is that the 16th Dec mention?
It's not a small site - there's lots being said......
-
But if a thread is added too, it should show on your next 'unread posts since last visit' ........... :-\
Blustery. Heavy drizzle. Some in Cornwall are without power :o >:( .......... bin day so lots of rattling going on outdoors. Expected to get much worse before Boxing Day :-\
-
Weve got sideways rain, hail stones and its so cold here (near wigan) the cat has hunkered down in the airing cupboard, cosy warm, may join him! Brrrrrrrr, thermals on.
-
Move over, on my way ;) ..............
the wind is now howling around the house :o
-
Howling wind - gusting 75 mph.
Heavy rain, interspersed with hail.
Fed up.
-
Hunkering down and glad we aren't travelling for another 24 hours ! Birds are hiding, I saw one trying to fly onto a feeder earlier and it didn't get there, got blown past :o ......... I have put food onto the lower feeders hopefully they will find that with less problem.
-
Absolutely awful out there. DD glad they travelled up when they did.
-
Not too windy but very very wet.
Honeyb
x
-
Rain is horizontal! Truly awful. Roads are flooding.
-
I hope all of you in the storm affected areas stay safe and have no flooding or wind damage.
Rain has stopped here but the sky is a very funny colour.
Honeyb
x
-
Funny colour = snow?
-
West coast are to get bad snow. We're missing it, right on east coast, but worse a few miles inland. Stay warm ladies.
-
Very wild out there. I've just got soaked going from my car to the post office and almost taken out by a flying bin ;D
My fences are swaying which means broken posts and the gate's been blown off - better put new fences and gate on my Dear Santa list then..
Taz x
-
Wild! The wind is stating to ease a little but it is still raining and we have a 'river' running down the road out the front f the house. Every time someone drives too fast through the water it throws what sounds like several gallons against the front room windows. I do wish people would SLOW DOWN. :o
-
Sounds nasty catdude. I hope it lets up soon.
The second storm is howling outside and should reach it's peak here around midnight. The tree branches are banging on the roof - I think they are saying "let us in. let us in. let us in." - no I haven't been on the wine!! ;D The rain is absolutely sheeting down and the cat is desperate for a wee but is too scared to even look outside. I have taken pity on him and put his litter tray down! The fences are waving and the gate has fallen off. Greenhouse is still intact though!
Taz x
-
Hope everyone survived the night.
It's shocking here this morning. Rain is battering the windows and I am scared to let the dog out in case she is blown away.
Due to calm down later. Can't see if there is any damage as its still pitch black.
Honeyb
x
-
Batten down the hatches Honeybun :)
We survived - fence panels and posts broken, some roof tiles off but not the big ridge ones thank goodness, the garden is waterlogged and covered in little branches, twigs and leaves. Was quite a storm.
I hope that everyone's relatives have either arrived safely or have safe journeys today.
Taz x :xmas:
-
Please please please Santa.....can there be no power cuts.
It's just awful out there. No rain but the wind is terrible. It's supposed to calm down a bit but no sign of it yet.
Honeyb

-
We're getting hammered with strong winds. Thankfully very little snow. Although we had a very heavy snow shower this morning.
-
Lovely sunshine yesterday, heavy rain at night and early hours and now the sun is shining. Air is cold though!
-
Beautiful day today. Cold, but pleasant enough to have a walk down at the beach.
-
Very windy and wet. Outdoor Christmas tree went over during the night even though it has pegs and a paving slab keeping it down.
-
Very stormy last night, but not as bad today. Still windy & grey though.
Feel sorry for everyone who got flooded over Christmas. Never good time to get flooded, but always worse at this time.
They predicted 3 months of snow. Instead we're getting terrible storms.
-
3 months :o
It's bright blue sky and blustery so off for a walk soon before it turns chillier.
-
Here in Scotland off for chilly walk with darkening skies, then back in to fires , tea and Christmas cake, and Turkey dinner ( this is the second one) tonight, always tastes better when its matured a bit,
-
Oh LittleMinnie - did you leave the tree 'over'?
Some are still without leccy :'(
DH and I have had a long walk, in high winds which have subsided. I really wasn't ready for the distance, fortunately there is a cafe half way round ...... met lots of lovely dogs to stroke, I don't miss the mud but I do miss the walks <sigh>
-
OH put it upright this morning, but it's gone again. It can't fly off though as its plugged into the shed.
-
;D I wouldn't speak too soon ;)
-
The shed might go too!
-
;D
-
Very wet. Need to go to the supermarket, but it's bouncing it down.
-
Very wet and windy - AGAIN
:cuss:
-
Was lovely this morning. Now it's dull & wet again. :(
-
When the showers hit they were violent. When the sun came out, it was bright ……… roads have been awash with running water, the drains can't cope and that's on the slopes :o ………. had towels on the line and they were thrashing around, birds have had difficulty getting to the feeders except in the lulls when the wind dropped.
Colder too - got the baubles off the outdoor trees and had to do it in 3 goes even though I had a thick coat on ::)
-
Crikey it was bad down here on the south coast at 10.30 this morning.
I was at work & the wind got up, the hail came down & I thought the roof was going to come off the warehouse. The hailstones were going round & round in like a vortex. It was quite scary.
One road to a local town is still closed because of flooding.
-
Warm and lovely. Have missed the artic blast in the west coast, but will get cooler beginning tomorrow, but not outrageous as elsewhere in US. Can't really go RV ing up for at least two, maybe three months as the water will freeze.
-
Not warm here....we had a hard freeze last night....27 degrees F, but warmer now around 40 degrees F.
I hope we don't lose our sago palms.
Andius
-
Blowing hard but no dry .......... a really good hard spell would be useful, getting rid of bugs and allowing some of this ground to dry. However ::)
-
Bit breezy, but dry. 8°c today, though with wind chill a bit less. Still loads warmer than USA. Got friend over there who hasn't managed to head home yet after Christmas, as it's so bad. Looks pretty though. -26 there. Brrrr
-
Shrewsbury had -24 a few years ago ::) ........ for days ..........
Dull now. Chickens tucked away. Doing indoor chores ......
-
Where we live hit -26 a number of years ago too. Blooming freezing. When our daughter was around a year old. We had very long cold winter, in a house with no central heating & outside temperatures were continually -16 or thereabouts during the day. I've never felt cold like it. No polar vortex, just a cold winter. ;)
-
I hate wet cold weather. Dry cold is much better. When Terry Wogan told the World that "Wales is cut off" it was very very cold for weeks! We walked everywhere, over the tops of cars and hedgerows that were hidden by deep snow :o
-
No wind today - YAAYYYY
Stopped raining for a while, at least till 3pm, started again really heavily at around 6pm.
Can't get anything dry outside at all.
It felt quite cold outside but the thermometer was saying 7C (+ not -)
Didn't feel it.
-
Auro borealis might be seen over the UK for the next 36 hours :o
-
I remember spending wonderful nights watching them when I was small. My mum and dad would load me and any friends who wanted to come into the car and drive off to into the Suffolk countryside and we would just sit on the bonnet and watch. It was beautiful. I haven't seen anything about them being visible tonight though - it's pouring with rain here anyway and I think I would have to be further North than I am now.
Taz x
-
Would love to see the Northern Lights, too many street lights where I live. It is a clear night though.
So we're not getting the end of the polar vortex as Atlantic too warm. However, looks like we will get icy blasts from the East instead. Maybe the Beast from the East mark 2.
-
Not watching Stargazing Live then ::)
Calm. Chilly. Blue sky after heavy over-night rain, everywhere is slubby :-\
-
No - tried to but it was so boring - too much studio time I think and not enough out in the field. Has anyone been to one of the stargazing events yet? It's been too wet here but if it turns colder and clearer I might give it a go.
Taz x
-
Would love to go but haven't the energy ::)
-
How far is it to your nearest one CLKD? Once you get there then you don't have to expend too much energy and you can have a lazy day maybe the day after.
Taz
-
There was a little bit of frost on the grass this morning.
Later on I saw something very very strange and I am still not sure what it was. It seemed to be a large shiny ball in the sky and it was a sort of yellow orange colour. Anyone got any ideas as to what it was ;)
Honeyb

-
It's been here occasionally today too ......... :D
Lots colder though!
-
Hi today predicted in mid 70's....YAY!. My husband is playing golf.
-
That's like we might get in the Summer ;D
8/9 here today. Bright. Chilly. Nice sunshine.
-
Cold, the gritters have been out but do they come up our hill, do they heck >:(
Honeyb
x
-
Seldom come up our hill either HB. Used to have a sand bin at bottom of the hill, but it vanished. :( One year hardly anybody could get up our hill, so numerous folk parked along main road at the bottom. That was a hazard in itself!
Chilly here but love seeing blue skies for a change.
-
Chilly here 2C but with lovely sunshine, blueish skies and no wind.
Could be worse.
-
2° here & dull. :(
-
Dull with a wind cold enough to cut you in two.
Honeyb
x
-
Cold but lovely and sunny and dry. Great frost early this morning. Locks on car frozen.
-
Deep frost until mid-morning when the clouds came over and now it's drizzling :-\
-
Absolutely stinking hot and likely to be 40+ over next few days! Don't envy me as being laid up and sweltering, even with air con isn't fun!
-
Calm. Clear skies. No dry air too damp ::)
-
Back to normal, grey skies and drizzling.
Not windy though which is good.
-
Duller and duller by mid afternoon and at 4.30 the rain POURED down >:(
-
Grey and cold, drizzling and bleak. It looks like we are going to get a week of this - hope not, need to get outside and get some fresh air. Can go for a walk if its grey and dry but if i go out in this I'll be like a drowned rat !
At least we have NO SNOW
Meggie
-
21-23C all week for our weather in Arizona, USA. You can remind me of this in mid summer.
-
Better today. Sun. Blue skies. Calmer …… not to last though ::)
-
The weather here is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uNkaeUr3-HU
Taz x :sunny: :sunny:

Sounds like my sleep therapy machine Taz which I paid £20 for & have only used 2 or 3 times.
>:( >:(
Cazi xx
-
Slightly warmer. Dull. Damp. Slubby underfoot >:(
-
It's pretty horrid here. I was planning on going into town, but it's like the rain in western Scotland, HB will know the stuff, water hanging in the air. Truly miserable.
-
I know the stuff CG, horrible.
Today it's not hanging in the air it's battering down. My patio is flooded again. I did not realise it was so bad until I dashed out to the garage and stamped in a big puddle which splooshed up my trouser leg and soaked my sock.
Don't you just love the Scottish weather. ;D
Honeyb

-
Just wonderful! To be honest though we need more frost to kill some of the bugs going around. Son & GF have a very nasty flu.

I have this one on my ipad

This one is good too

Duller and duller then heavy rain followed by heavy drizzle - shall we build the Ark tomorrow or wait until the weekend :-\
-
The sooner the better I reckon. :D
-
Misleading - Sunny skies then rain, keeps alternating like this
-
Thanks for the Links!
This morning: calm. Warmer. Blue skies.
-
Dare I say rather pleasant & I'm no longer frozen. One happy bunny! :D
-
I am cold today.
Weather is damp and grey yet again. :(
Honeyb

-
Damp since mid-afternoon after a bright start ::)
-
Several downpours today. Very mild though.
Taz x
-
Hot and clear. The desert in winter. Almost too hot.
-
Snow on the mountains Trey?
-
Don't know about the in the American mountains, but there's a bit of snow of the North Welsh Mountains ::)
-
In the middle of heatwave :'( The past 5 days have been 40+ with it only cooling to 35 at night. Do not envy me as we are all exhausted from no sleep. Animals have to be inside and the power has been shut down today so no air con. Well that serves ME right for moving here from continuously cold, rainy Ireland!
-
Poor you Rose - this is my idea of hell so, no, I don't envy you!
Rainy and blowy here - will try to send some over to you!
Taz
-
My niece is in NSW and is finding it unbearable at the moment. Kids can't play outdoors as it's too hot.
Meanwhile we are having another driech day & l think it's to be like this for the next week. :(
-
Brewing rain again. I've spent 3 hours in the garden 8) ....... it's not cold. Birds are singing. Some washing out, due to get a heavenly rinse >:(
-
Feels cool, it shouldn't it's 6C, so could be worse. However, wild birds are really going for the food that has been put out.
Hasn't really rained since 5AM, only drizzled since then.
-
7 in the car. Lovely sunset. Washing out; washing in; no dry ::) .........
-
Had Monsoon like showers all day. Not too cold though.
-
Absolutely relieved that a cool change came in and it's only 28 today! We have the Tour down Under going on and the cyclists must be glad of the cooler weather. Tennis going on in Melbourne and one player was hallucinating due to severe heat. He thought he saw Snoopy on court!
-
Blowing up a storm again. Wondered why I was coughing my head off again.
-
Beautiful sunny still day. Quite cool though, only up to 4C now.
I was hoping to get some washing dry, but don't think that is going to be quick.
On the plus side, it all looks so cheerful.
-
Horrid here. Very wet. Got lights on it's so dark.
-
Very sunny all day here. I've just got back from a wood-walk which was very muddy and full of also very muddy dogs taking their dutiful owners for a walk.
Taz x :)
-
The sun has been out today but it has been so cold and windy then this afternoon ........ IT HAILED !!!! It looks like we are set to have weather like this for the next 5 days ......... Roll on holidays
Meggie

HAIL! :o
Bright sunshine here all day for a change. Did more gardening :-*
-
Had a hail storm up here too. It was reasonably dry and bright up to that point. Very cold though.
Honeyb

It has rained pretty much all day here. 😥😥

Very frosty here. A bit of winter weather for a change!
Taz x

Dull, dull, dull.

Blue sky and sunshine :)

Sharp frost. Blue sky. Calm air. Birds singing .........
-
Not too bad outside. But I can't get warm today. :(
-
Minus 35 today brrrrr
-
Horrible! Sick of wind & rain & grey skies!
-
Lovely is morning,sunshine but rain,rain this afternoon.
Very cold out so if it freezes to night :o
-
Lots of hail showers today. Got caught in one and it was so painful as it was being blown sideways on a very strong wind.
Snow on the mountains, looks very pretty when the cloud clears enough to see it.
Honeyb
x
-
That's where snow should be, on the tops of mountains ;D …….. heavy rain at night, lovely during the day though not much dry outdoors
-
No white stuff here. Just more of the same dismal stuff. Maybe weather suffering from depression. ;D
-
The hail was so painful. Whoever thought that building a supermarket right on the sea front should be shot ;D
Honeyb

-
Bit warmer today only minus 30. Nearly cried with pain waiting 25 minutes for the bus!
-
Where abouts in the world are you Suziq ?
Sounds very very cold. You must laugh when you read our moans about the weather.
Honeyb

-
See East coast America getting bad snow again. We should be thankful we haven't had any snow yet. Though this country has had more than its fair share of rain in recent weeks.
-
Oooo I could get snowed in. That would mean a nice rest from doing all the things I have to do.
Well I can only but hope can't I.
;D
Honeyb

-
Well you may get your wish HB. Snow heading your way. We're supposed to get an icy blast from the East next week. Last time they said that, nothing happened. So don't go holding your breath.
Today is really chilly, dry so far.
-
Hi honeybun. I'm in montreal, where the winters can be -40 and the summers can be +40! I am originally from the north east of England but have been here for 6 and a half years. I do miss England, especially the weather!
-
Snow is probably on it's way from the East of the US :o ......
Today is dull. 5 in the car. Drizzling ::)
-
It is hailing hard, there is an all-round thunder storm and the sky is a strange colour :o
It's a good job I put the chickens into their coop
-
Honeybun - that wouldn't be a certain supermarket in Leith, would it? In which case, I agree - and it's even worse if you need to get petrol!
-
Thunder storm here too. Huge hail stones and very heavy rain. The roads are flooding along with the fields. Just awful.
Honeyb
x
-
I am on the West Coast dulciana. Developers here think it's fun to build on the sea front and then we all get blown away trying to get the shopping into the car. You have to develop a clever technique. The ability to stop your trolley disappearing into the sea or taking a lump out of your car whilst unloading your shopping. Having four arms would be very useful.
Honeyb

-
What a morning! Thankfully no snow. Now it's calmer & the sun is trying to make an appearance. Not quite 4 seasons in one day, but still, very changeable.
-
Grey. Drizzle. Heavy rain. Hail storm. Sunshine. Grey. Drizzle .........
-
So wet, so windy and flooding - good job we live high up - if we flood there's nobody else with a chance.
Meggie
-
Today has been bright for most of the day :-*
-
We live high up too. If local river reaches us, the end of the world will be high. ;)
Been horrid again today. Remind me what does sunshine look like? ;)
-
Think it's like. :sunny: :sunny: :sunny:
Don't really remember to be honest ;D
Honeyb

-
Well doesn't look like it's going to happen any time soon. ;D
As for today, have a guess. Is it RAIN, RAIN or RAIN?
-
Just walked home from the station in bright sunshine. Rain and wind forecast for later on today. It's already starting to grey over and to blow.
-
8 in the car. Variable weather all day ::) ending with heavy rain!
-
Been wild all day long. Torrential rain. Very strong winds. Now God is moving his furniture. ;)
-
Pianos and 3 piece suites then ;-)
Drizzle all day. Now throwing heavy rain at the windows! Supposedly better for the weekend ::)
-
First he dropped a piece, then dragged it across. Very inconsiderate. ;D
Looking lovely this morning though. How long it will last, I'm not sure.
-
Sunny here too. We haven't got any grass left in the garden - the "lawn" which is sloping is just very sticky mud. It's clay too so you need a lot of leg power to get your wellies out!!
Taz x
-
You will have to sort it out in the SUMMER then Taz. :)
-
Oh no - I don't go out there in the SUMMER - far too bright ;D ;D
-
Torrential rain here this morning. I think I may well be growing webbed feet ;D
Honeyb

-
Sunny, windy and very cold. Need to go and do a food shop but it's too cold.
-
Not bad, not bad at all. Washing out for first time in yonks. Sure tumble dryer enjoying the rest. :)
-
Torrential rain here today with strong winds.
The good news is that the is from the wind is from the south, so a bit of much needed washing can go at the north end of the car port for a blow dry.
Better than yesterday when it was sleeting, snow at top of road :(
-
Rain over night again. Now the sky is blue and there's a great bright orb up there …… so bright I have a headache :-\
-
My rotary washing line snapped in half :'( so ended up using tumble dryer after all. Such a strong wind. Branches lying all over the place.
-
Lovely and sunny,blue sky but very windy and sooooo cccccccold!!! Brrrr!!!
-
There is a bit of coastal flooding up here again. The tide at lunch time was very high and combined with a strong wind means road closures again.
There has been so much damage done to the road surfaces recently they are closing a fourteen mile stretch of road tomorrow for repairs. Unfortunately that means my journey to mum's means a 35 mile diversion. Have to go the wrong way for miles before doubling back on myself. This is the main route north in this part of the world. It's ridiculous. Needless to say I am not going tomorrow and will go on Monday instead.
Honeyb

-
What a difference to yesterday. Very sunny and 8 degrees. :)
-
Very strange - Not raining and it's sunny.
It doesn't hurt to go outside
-
Gorgeous sunshine. Hubby has put up new rotary clothes line - squint! But hey ho it's up.
-
Cubagirl - it happesn with long lines too >:( ::) .......... Mum had a line of nappies out and the line snapped, 'cos there wasn't a tumble drier in those days so they went out wet ::)
Another bright sunny chilly day ......... here at least
-
Been a nice day here in London. Sun and no wind :o Must be some mistake!
-
Sunny here too - have just been for a three mile walk around the country lanes - managed to almost avoid looking at the catkins waving at me from the trees.....
Taz x :)
-
Wet, cold, grey & windy.
-
Ditto here littleminnie.
-
We have had amazing storms here in SW England as you will probably have seen/heard on the national news - very very strong gales and even more rain if that's possible. We went down to the S Coast (Dorset) this morning at high tide and it was truly spectacular - I have never seen waves that big, crashing over the harbour walls, up onto the road and huge piles of shingle and tree trunks scattered everywhere along the top of the shoreline - further down in Devon from where we live the railway has actually been washed away....

-
I looked at the rails - the train runs really close to the Dawlish Sea Wall :o (remember Sarah Kennedy used to talk about it ;D ).
Here it's been wet, windy, bright, chilly ……. fed up now :-\
-
We've had tremendous storms here too and the river which is down in the dip from where I work has finally burst it's banks after putting up a very brave fight over the past few weeks. The farmer was trying to move his cows as I left as they were "knee" high in the flooded water. I feel so sorry for the wildlife especially those who live in the river banks.
Here's the Dawlish link http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-26042990

Time to build the Ark - but I don't know many I would want to share it with ;) ……. the wind is throwing itself against our double glazing, thank goodness for good quality glass!
-
I feel so sorry for all who are just struggling with constant flooding. It must be devastating for them.
It's been cold but quite calm up here for a change.

Let's hope we get a long hot summer, so everyone can dry out. They'd better not mention droughts & hosepipe bans after all this.
-
I agree Cubagirl, I think a Lynching mob would be out! Is this climate change? If so perhaps not building on flood plains would be a start ::)
-
When daughter moved to Notts they struggled to get house insurance as local river had flooded several times. They were one floor up. However, one insurance company took them on saying that a good percentage of houses in England are on flood plains. England is very flat compared to Scotland, though we still have our problems here. High up rivers cash burst and head downhill. Our local river is overflowing, it won't affect us, but many lower down may get flooded if it gets much worse.
-
Somerset Levels have been declared a disaster zone and evacuation will continue :-\
Calm here after heavy rain and high winds last night <sigh>
-
And today the weather is :sunny: :sunny: :sunny:
Washing out. Just so nice to see blue skies again.
-
Dull, damp, windy, grey, all words that just mean miserable :(
So fed up with this. Have not hung out washing since the end of October. I would still be waiting for it to dry ::)
Honeyb

-
Raining! Again!!!
-
Spoke too soon. Sat down to have some lunch & the clouds just seemed to roll in. Now it's raining again. :(
-
Not rained here for 8 hours!
-
Overnight or day-time? ;)
-
Daytime. It's raining now though. >:(
-
::) …….. nights are pulling out though ;)
-
It did not get dark here until just after 5pm. Lovely to see the nights beginning to stretch out toward spring.
Honeyb
x
-
It's rained solidly all day here. The garden is just mud.
Taz x
-
I think half of the south of England is mud Taz :-\
This weather is just silly although I think we have got off lightly compared to some.
Honeyb
x
-
Rainy & cold. Fed up of this weather now. :(
-
South of England are building the Ark :-\
Blustery wind. Dry with dark clouds ……...
-
Rain and sun here CLKD - haven't started the Ark yet ;D. Heavy showers today but yesterday we were in North Wales and the weather was really good. Bit of a trek there and back though - motorways were a little bit accident-prone.
Taz x
-
Nice yesterday.
Horrible today, Very strong winds and torrential rain
-
North Wales is a Trek which ever way you approach the Country from ::) - even from NW ;D
Blowing a gale again, raining hard ……..
-
It's not just the distance (500 mile round trip) it's the cost of the fuel - I hadn't thought about that until I had to fill up the tank. Mind you petrol was so much cheaper there!
Taz x
-
But diesal costs?
Did you get to see any scenery?
-
There was "scenery" throughout the whole journey ;D It was right at the tip of North Wales so no mountains as such - hilly bits and flat bits - and industrial bits and seaside bits.
I didn't bother to look at diesel costs as my car uses petrol. Will have a look next time!
Taz
-
:thankyou: Snowdon has mountains if you went to the tip of N Wales unless the other direction i.e. Anglesey?
-
It was on the coast about an hour from Snowdonia CLKD so didn't actually get to see any mountains which suited me as I am not a fan of them really.
Taz x
-
Which bit of the coast were you on Taz?
-
I was in Colwyn Bay
Taz x
-
That would explain the reasonable fuel costs. Quite civilised around there. :)
It's got mobile 3G and things like that.
-
The food costs were really low too and my wine was much cheaper!
Taz x
-
Really windy,dull,cold and wet >:(
-
Horribly windy, cowl blown off roof, gutter damaged, again.
Pouring with rain as well.
Fed up with this. >:(
-
Dull, damp & dismal! Not too windy just now.
Is it any wonder us Brits are sun worshippers, after this winter especially. Think we'll all need some Vit D supplements.
-
Cold, wet and grey. >:(. Going out to lunch to cheer us up. :)
-
Freezing, hubby called out to go gritting tonight. Must go for a walk though going stir crazy here! :madeyes:
-
Haven't been to Colwyn for years ::)
Sunny. Chilly blustery wind. Heavy rain …….
-
You should have a trip back to Colwyn CLKD - not sure how far it is from you? Take the camper!
Taz x
-
Haven't been to Colwyn for years ::)
Sunny. Chilly blustery wind. Heavy rain …….
Hmm - Hasn't changed then ;D
-
I meant here is chilly etc.. ;)
Colwyn is not an area I particularly like ;) :-X …….. further Northward to Hexham :)
-
Is that Northumberland? Great beaches.
Windy and cold here
Taz x
-
Hot. 79 F
-
4° C here and dull again. :(
-
Frost overnight, but sunny.
-
Bright. Chilly. Wind has dropped. Blue sky - so far ::)
-
Sun has come out! :)
-
Just started to rain. :(
-
Sunny ish, not much rain, NO WIND. Yaaaayyyyyy
-
April Showers ALL day ::) - then the sun comes out nice and warm …….. however, Severe Flood Warnings all over
-
Same old same old here
Honeyb

-
Raining again. So fed up of this weather. :(
-
We had a slight change of colour earlier, the white stuff, but back to same old rain! :(
-
Heavy drizzle and blustery wind this morning :-\
-
Very heavy rain early on, then sunshine, now really heavy snow. The gritters were out at lunchtime but not up our hill :(
Honeyb
x
-
Sunshine :o but the birds are getting through the nuts so they know what's coming and it is certainly COLDER today
-
Sunny but chilly this morning. Now very grey and throwing hail down.
Forecast awful for tomorrow. Very, very strong winds, what's the word, oh yes gales, with snow.
-
Not too bad now. But Tesco delivery guy said it was bad further inland.
-
Rain this morning,sunny this after but very, very cold.
-
Poured again this evening :-\
-
Snow flurries a lot this afternoon.
Bramble
-
Did it stick?
-
Got a red Met Office warning for storm force winds here this afternoon and evening.
Great. >:(
There's a very strong chance we will lose our phone line and electricity.
So, if I'me not on here for a while, that's why.
-
Pouring again. Birds battling against the wind. Shipping Forecast warning a Force 20 :o
-
Red weather warning here, gales to come. Getting a bit worrying.
-
Have built The Ark ;)
-
Do we have to come in two by two? ;)
-
if you know anyone you would like to bed down with ;)
Grey and windier :o
-
Sleet and a bit of snow here.
We are missing the worse of the weather.
Stay safe ladies.

North Dorset, extremely high wind, had heavy rain all morning but brightened a little now. Haven't ventured out to see what the rivers are doing, our little town is on 3 rivers and these days it doesn't take much to send 'em over the edge. :(
-
Not going to go to the post box 'cos it's likely I'll never get back :o
COld. Pouring.
-
Started out bright & frosty. Now it's pouring down & blowing up a storm again. When will it ever end?
-
Gone to hide from storm in local pub. OK, it's still windy but at least OH won't be tempted to go up on roof when something blows off. ::)
It's got WIFI too, handy or what? ;D
-
Very wet and blustery
-
Terrible! Had to buy some waterproof trousers in the shopping centre to get back to my car :o
Wet, windy, not nice. Dog will not be getting a walk today.
-
Horrendous now. Lights are flickering. Hope we don't lose power! Wind is howling. Talking about hurricane force in some parts of UK.
Stay safe ladies.

Just driven home from my daughters. Drove through one village and the river has encroached onto the road, fairly deep, but still passable, although the lane which goes alongside the river is closed. No doubt the houses are flooded downstairs. I thought that was bad enough, until I drove through my own village, where the road through it was closed due to flooding. Whenever there is a lot of rain the tanker lorry comes to pump the water from the pumping station there, but obviously that hasn't been enough this time. The houses and the village shop are probably flooded. Next to the shop, a house was built on land that was known to be boggy and had never been built on before. Ever since then there has been problems when it rains heavily. We are fairly near the river. I'm so glad we live live up the hill, though I look at the trees, which are close to the house and wonder how vulnerable they are or more to the point we are when the winds are high. The ground is saturated.
-
A lot of flooding is caused because people continue to drive close to properties :'( - they don't understand that the wash they create can be desasterous :-[ ………… the difference between water going over the sill or not ……….
Hail storm earlier; blue sky; blowing a hooley ……...
-
Windy again, but nowhere near as bad as yesterday.
At least it's dry, so a small amount of washing out on line, with lots and lots of pegs.
We were so lucky yesterday, just a gutter dislodged which OH fixed this morning.
Our next door neighbours had a tree and oil tank blown over.
-
:o ……. how can an oil tank blow over? Ours is so heavy, being metal …… up on bricks …
Calmer here today. Bright sky. Cold wind though.
-
Dry, grey, breezy, freezing.
Last nights wind not only blew over my wheelie bin, but also managed to whip out the bin liner & two bags of rubbish in it. Heck knows which garden they ended up in. ::)
-
Perhaps foxes ran away with your rubbish ;)
-
;D ;D ;D Well if they did, they're welcome to it!
-
:o ……. how can an oil tank blow over? Ours is so heavy, being metal …… up on bricks …
Probably because it's plastic and perched on some brick pillars, not anchored at all.
Ours is metal and secured to a nearby, sturdy, disused power pole.
-
Our oil tank is plastic: double bunded and arrived on a crane ………
Calm tonight :-\ :-X
-
Think this one is double bunded, but not as big as some I've seen, don't know about the crane bit :-\
Actually managed to get some washing dry today.
Not too windy now though it's going to get worse tomorrow, oh and windy again ::)
CLKD thought your tank was metal
"……. how can an oil tank blow over? Ours is so heavy, being metal …… up on bricks …" ;D
-
::) sorry - checked with DH and forgot to alter my reply :-X
-
CLKD happens to me all the time.
Welcome to my world................ ;)
-
It's just started raining here. I am wondering what it'll be like later - I have a gig I really don't want to miss but I don't want to get blown away before I get there!!
Taz x
-
Dark clouds looming, but not cold enough for the snow they've forecast.
-
Cold, raining and windy - again!!!
-
Snow is forecast from Wales and the North
Pouring and blowing furiously here again <sigh>
-
Bitterly cold, grey and raining.
Just the same as usual.
Honeyb

-
Saw a little blue sky after a really ferocious storm mid-afternoon :o - blowing hard again now >:(
-
Since about 3pm it's alternated between torrential rain sleet and very heavy snow. Nothing is lying on the roads but the grass is covered. Flooding all over the place. Both kids were headed home. It took my son 2 1/2 hours to travel 40 miles and daughter was very shaky when she came in because of the road conditions. She said she was on the hard shoulder of the motorway three times trying to let police and ambulance through.
All in safe and sound. The sleet is battering off the windows and the lights keep flickering.
Honeyb
x
-
Torch and candles ready then?
-
Oh heck, never thought of that. Better get them out and I think I might fill a flask.
Every time they go off for more than a second or two our flamin alarm goes off.
Daughter just headed out to boyfriends.....must be love cause you would not get me out in that ;D
Honeyb

-
Rain, snow, wind. Horrendous!
-
Horrible - again
Windy, lots of rain, hail.
-
Windy and sunny here today. Last night was very bad and we've lost some fence panels. Loads of trees down locally too but at least we still have power - fingers crossed.
Taz x
-
Brass monkeys. Wind coming straight from the north. Light rain too.
-
Not stopped raining today. Sun is supposed to make an appearance tomorrow.
-
We needed the torches for a short while last evening, stepped into my bath, opened the page of new magazine: flicker and out >:( but not for long ……… very windy over-night, surprised to see garden chairs still where I had stood them :o but there are trees down locally. Wind only now dying down :-\
-
It's been sunny cold and very windy.
Dark,cold and windy now ;D
-
Sprouts again :D
-
:sunny:
-
Lovely blue skies and sunshine. :)
Honeyb

-
Blue skies, sunshine and not cold.
Actually got some washing dry, just the right amount of wind :)
-
Same here - towels out, blown dry and in again.
Don't tell Taz but nights are drawing out ;)
-
Glad no snow forecast over next few days as son & GF are heading to Notts.
Today was glorious, though rather chilly.
-
Taz has noticed!! I have also noticed that it is getting light earlier. It's still dark when I get up at 6.15 so that's ok but by 6.45 it is getting lighter...
Taz x
-
Don't think you need worry too muchx Taz. Lot of winter to come yet.
Honeyb
x
-
My bulbs are coming up. :)
-
My daffies are a good 4in already.
Chilly today, but dry. However, forecast is for rain later. :(
-
Dull. Light drizzle - fed up now. Birds busy on the nut feeders so colder weather is on it's way. Sky looks like snow :o ………. we have crocus up in pots :-* but the Winter scented shrubs haven't enough sunshine in order to waft perfume across the garden <sigh>
Saw flies yesterday :o
-
Flies? What does that mean?
-
It means the temperature is warm enough to bring them out of hibernation.
Taz x
-
Yep. I think I saw a bee too ;)
-
Absolutely pouring with rain.... again - in SW England :(
But yes - the lighter evenings and mornings make me smile!!
Hurdity x
-
Light before 7.00 a.m. :o - apparently ;)
-
It happens every year CLKD... but it is still dark at 6.15 which is good. I hate getting up when it's already light!
Taz x :lol:
-
Damp, foggy. :(
-
Blue sky!! Second time this week.
-
Dull. Warmer. Can't decide what it wants to do ::)
-
Raining now. >:(
-
Grey, drizzling, quiet.
-
Wet >:(
-
Wet early on now bright sunshine, it's warmer, I've had to change my clothes to something thinner :o ……..
-
Damp earlier, but the sun has put his hat on & has come out to play. :sunny:
-
We've had brilliant rainbows! And - some of that blue stuff as well as this strange bright light that burnt my eyes! :sunny:
Hurdity x
-
:sunny: Gone back to be now ;D
-
Sunshine this morning :D some clouds now trying to take over. I'm moving around the flat like a cat, seeking out the puddles of sun.
Must go for a walk ho hum. ::)
I hope it stays all weekend but it's suddenly got windier so I fear the grey murk is on its way back.
-
Freezing rain today - hopefully it will melt some of the snow as we have about 5 feet of it!
-
Wind would cut you in half, bitter. Dryish though.
-
Beautiful bright sunny day but that wind :o
-
2 lovely warm days followed by dull and drizzle again ::) - ngiths are pulling out though
-
Last day of winter on Friday! :)
-
Bit dull, bit drizzly, bit warmish, but that's only because there's no wind for a change. ;)
-
Cloudy, sunny, light breeze, drizzly... think the weather is coming out in sympathy with me. Can't make up its mind what it's doing and changes randomly! ::)
-
Dull. Drizzle. Dull .......... ::)
-
Unbelievable!! After my exercise class this morning I sat outside drinking coffee in my (sleeveless) vest-top and short leggings in the sunshine for an hour (putting off doing some work - as self-employed!) and felt the warmth on my skin and got some lovely natural Vit D at the same time. Blissful! This is Devon though... :sunny::sunny:
Sorry to disappoint you Littleminnie - but spring :sunny: begins on March 21st the vernal equinox - so a while to go yet! The Met Office quotes the stats based on convenient whole months so yes by their definition winter is Dec Jan and Feb - but it is not the actual correct dates though!!
Hurdity x
-
It's gorgeous here as well, sun is out and it feels quite warm. Even one of the dogs went out at lunchtime and just lay on the grass for a while enjoying it :)
-
Hurdity - it makes me feel better thinking that Winter ends on Friday. So I'm sticking the weather girl on the BBC. :)
-
Of course it does -and why not! Sorry littleminnie - trust me to be pedantic. It's the scientist in me. I must try harder....
I just like the old-fashioned turning of the year equinoxes and solstice.
Whatever we call it, March sounds much more hopeful than February - which is my least favourite month of the year!
Hurdity x
-
I think Winter should carry on until at least May! I haven't had any Winter weather to speak of this year..... :na:
Taz x
-
Well winter is nearly over Taz and we are going to have a very beautiful summer...........
I love to dream :)
-
Haha Taz - I nearly said something as I knew what you'd be thinking! :clapping:
I agree though we haven't had winter and I do like a bit of forst and ice and snow - makes me appreciate the spring and summer even more!
Hurdity x
-
You all had a brilliant summer last year and all I kept reading on here was how hot it was and how much you were all longing for some cooler weather..... :ange:
-
That's the beauty of menopause - we soon forget ;D
-
:rofl:
-
;D. Good answer CLKD.
-
;D
Today is sunny & cold. How does that sound Taz? ;)
-
Bright, windy & chilly.
Just right for an invigorating walk.......
-
;)
I would walk but too much else to be getting on with ::) - rained hard first thing, blue sky now
-
:o Snow is forecast !
-
Not up here it's not.
It's all topsy turvey. It's been really mild up here.
Honeyb

-
Snow not forecast here either.
Been bright, cold and blowy again.
Good drying weather, hopefully ::)
-
from Wales and across to the Midlands - yellow alert! However, the sky is blue, birds are singing, sun is warm :whist:
-
Snow forecast over high routes up here, but it's not cold enough on the coast.
America being hit by another polar vortex, so hope that doesn't muck up our weather again & give us more flooding.
-
<sigh> - what happens over there today, gets to us tomorrow >:(
-
Sunshine!

Dull,dreary,cold & wet >:(

Sunny and cold this morning. Actually managed to get to our allotment to shovel some horse manure.
Heck I know how to live don't I ;D. Shovelling s##t. ::)
Honeyb

-
Dry, bright and sunny this morning.
Taz would have liked it, it was 1C at 9.30 :)
-
Shovelling the manure? My husband did that in our veg garden this afternoon - me - I decided to make some soup instead ;D
However it was lovely sunshine this morning and again I sat outside in my vest top getting some Vit D and even had lunch outside it was so warm! :sunny:
Also planted up my tubs with some daffodils and primroses to make it feel spring-like - but I know we will get some more winter later on!
It's colder now though....
Hurdity x
-
Poured all of yesterday; sharp frost overnight leaving bright sunshine :-*
Blue sky all day …….

Raining. :(

Bright sunshine today :sunny: but windy and cold.

Rather pleasant today. Clear skies, light breeze.

Just started to drizzle here

My daughter can get out of her village at last! A raised causeway has been built over the flood water. They have been able to exit along a farm track and narrow roads that added an extra 20 minutes to every journey. A rather torturous journey, dodgy in the dark, but at least they were able to get to work. Their neighbour's child has been rather ill, needing several trips to the doctors. It's been very difficult for them.
They can't drink the water, not even to boil. Their water comes from a spring, which keeps being contaminated. As my little grandson has taken to drinking the bath water, my daughter has had to been inventive. She has bought a large squishy garden tub and fills it up with heated water imported from our house and friends. Makes you appreciate being connected to mains water.
The river that flowed through their village for the first time in 67 years is drying up. More dry weather please!
-
That's good news! How long before the well will be clean enough to drink?
There are products on the market, bought from good walking/camping shops, that can clear contaminated water. People use them for hiking in the Himalya etc., boiled water then these products ?
Today it's been drizzling - again!
-
They have been living there for about 3 years and on and off the water has kept failing tests. I think the problem is related to the amount of rain that we have in the past few years, so the farm yuck stuff gets into the water system. We now have a problem in our own village where sewage has got into what was a clean river. Such a shame. Has caused a health hazard for dogs and other animals. My daughter's village is really a farm estate. Lovely place to live and reasonable rent. The only issue has been the water, but normally ok to boil. We've got used to transporting water! The landlord would love to have mains water installed, but it would cost a bomb and I doubt the farm could support that kind of expense.
-
Farm 'yuk' should NEVER get into the water system, spring water or otherwise :o - this is for the envionrment agency to deal with! Hopefully this country will get it's act together regarding water problems - look at the Dutch, no problems there and the whole country is below sea level !
Pouring again today!
-
Sunny, again!
-
Intermittent showers, very chilly and sunshine …...
-
It's a wee bit nippy but very sunny this morning 8)
-
Sharp frost; blue sky; bright sunshine :-*
-
Sharp frost overnight but blue skies and sunshine today (that actually has some warmth in it). Hubby is threatening to cut the grass this afternoon.....
-
Cold & mizzly. Roll on next week, sunshine apparently will put in an appearance, along with cosier temperatures.
-
Sunshine here today. Nice sharp frost this morning.

Grey and dreich here today.
Went to the garden centre today and then thought what's the point in buying g anything. It will only drown. They were selling ducks though ;D

Hoepfully the forecast warmer weather arrives ;)

Glorious 8)

19 in the car :-* - - too warm in the garden cabin, had to come inside ;D
-
Spring like :( Although it is lovely seeing the insects beginning to emerge and the birds beginning to pair up but I am struggling with saying goodbye to Winter when we didn't really have any proper winter weather. You lot had a wonderful summer last year but I was cheated out of my Winter :lol:
Taz x :diablo:
-
;D ……….. isn't all that rain winter enough ?
-
No rain isn't winter. Cold is winter. Frost and snow. Brilliant frosty mornings with that oh so cold smell in the air. Crispness and coldness.
Taz x :lol:
-
we have had 4 sharp frosts since October …….. not enough ::)
-
Four frosts in five months?
Taz x :na:
-
That's all :-\ ………. not enough to kill the bugs and not enough to have to scrap the car window screen
-
Dull, but warmer at 11°.
-
Spring like really.
Sunny, warm enough to go for walk wearing cardi rather than barbour.
Had sandals on in house, this only lasted for the morning.....
-
I'm hopeful that Tomorrow will be better. ::)
-
2nd day of sun today. I'll have to visit my spring wardrobe at this rate.
-
Very sunny and day 2 without a vest ;D
-
Very sunny here too - just a pity I can't get out in it!
Anderina xxxx
-
What a shame anderina. When are you allowed 'out' again?
Galadriel x
-
Don't know about allowed - only just over week since hysterectomy but might just have a little walk around outside!!
It feels like it should be raining, windy & horrible then I wouldnt mind being cooped up!
Anderina xxx
-
Glorious sunshine here :sunny:
Going out for my walk as it's going to change this after.
-
You sound like you might be a teeny bit worried to go out. I remember the feeling, but if you can just go for short walk. I had to force myself, took mobile just in case. My first walk was a bit scary, nothing happened.
Weather is glorious today, yay!

Dull :-\

Lovely here again, actually lay in the garden yesterday sunbathing 8)

Spent 2 hours sat outside our caravan on the East Coast of Yorkshire yesterday crocheting (still teaching myself that one, but getting better!) - no jumper on and it was SO warm in the sun! I hadn't taken anything other than jeans with me and I had to cover my legs as they were burning through the balck denim! Here's hoping it's a taste of things to come.
-
We also arrived at our caravan on East coast today, am sitting outside with my latte.......this is the life ! :sunny: :diablo:
-
Sunny, warmish (well 11C) gentle breeze.
All in all very pleasant.
-
Oops sorry don't know why I put a devil at the end of my post lol
-
Yesterday was beautiful …….. today the weather turned chilly - DH was fishing I stayed in the camper ;)

Nippy and foggy in the morning. Now wall to wall sunshine 8)

Nippy earlier. Now the sun is trying to come through the cloud …… it might get warmer!

3rd day of sunshine!

I had on a long sleeved thermal vest, fleece and anorak while working in the garden so not that warm!

Grey and chilly all day - what happened to the heatwave?

It was really cold here today too. Had to find somewhere really sheltered to feel a bit of warmth in the sun.

Tiny bit chilly though ;D

Its dull and cold here and forecasted to get colder ::)

intermittent sunshine, intermittent grey cloud - very windy in the night and some flights across the UK are cancelled :o
-
Says 10° feels like 7°, eh? Much colder! Dull & drizzly.
-
Sunny and mild but very windy.
-
Bright and breezy! Wish I was too ;)
-
Aw, not a good day Galadriel? Sun making a feeble attempt to shine, doubt it will win. ;)
-
Its pouring with rain now, colder and windy. March is not my favourite month
What is worse is going to TESCO in it ;D
-
Dull & windy in West Mids but not to cold..yet..x
-
Chilly wind >:(. Have added more and more layers as the day goes on!
-
Yes CG - one of those days...and now it's raining. ::)
-
I've had to change into warmer jersey and long cosy socks. Yesterday I was turning heating off, today can't get warm enough. Been lulled into false sense of security with the milder weather, forgetting that it is still only March.
Hate those kinds of days Galadriel. :hug:
-
Pouring earlier :( ……….. feet are cold otherwise …….
-
More socks CLKD!
Sunny and windy 8)

Sunshine, and hailstones!!

Now cold, wet, and windy. Booked my spot next to the fire tonight!
-
Started off sunny this morning.
Grown darker as the day progressed.
Now we have the joy of very strong winds and rain again.
It's rotten for the new lambs that are now arriving apace.
We (well OH) was chatting to our farmer neighbour. During the last spell of strong winds (about two weeks ago) the wind, 100 metres from the house was measured at 108 MPH :o
-
Started off sunny, then decided to rain because I hung out the washing.
Ended up wet, windy and cold. Boo!
-
Lovely yesterday with chilly wind. Torrential wind and rain in the night, though the 'van was going to be tipped into the river :o - fine morning but the wind turned bitter by 10.30 >:( - it's poured again this evening.
-
Sleeting!!! Yay!! ;D ;D :banana: :bouncing: :ola: :love:
Taz x :lol:
-
Sleeted first thing this morning.
Sunny and windy now though, only 4C so feels quite chilly.
-
Bright breezy and bloomin cold. Better than this time last year though. We had ten foot snow drifts in the hills behind us.
Hope we don't get anything like that.
Honeyb
x
-
That's where snow should stay - on the tops!
Bitterly cold. Sunny. Breezy.
-
I agree but last year it was on the hills and right down into our garden and road. At least two feet of snow to lower levels. Hundreds of spring lambs were lost :-\
Honeyb
x
-
This time last year was awful. They even had 10ft snowdrifts in Jersey, taxi driver told us last summer.
Today, I drove short distance to stresscos. Turned onto road which store is on, and quite literally was hit by sudden heavy snow pellets, virtual whiteout. In about 2 minutes it was starting to lie. Came out about 10 minutes later, sun was shining, snow was melting. Drove home & there had been nothing! As the crow flies we're about 400 yds from store. It was just the way it came across, driven by strong winds.
-
Started out sunny and mild before turning very cold with epic hail storms.

Eerie thick fog!

Windy, cold and very heavy showers.
Due to perk up and warm up over the weekend. Sure hope so because I want to plant my potatoes tomorrow. Don't want them or me to freeze. ::)
Honeyb

Sun tomorrow. :)

HUGE Hail storm/lightening/thunder storm in south east Cheshire tonight. Kids & dogs in a state. A few houses locally have been struck & lots of power out. Don't think I have seen anything quite this bad since I was a teenager. B x

Grey & slightly damp. :(

Grey, dull and no wind.

Blowing a hooley up here.
We went into town this afternoon. Parked in a side street and then walked to the main street. Turned the corner only to be nearly blown off our feet with a salt laden wind. Really had to battle to walk into it.
Living on the coast is nice but...... ;D
Honeyb

Here was me thinking the west was getting it nice today. ::)

Two days of sun in a row!

Same here, looks like another warm sunny day today.

Grey, dampish no wind

greyish and cold here.

It's still very windy here.
I kept wakening up last night to things blowing about in the wind. I really did not want to chase flower pots about in the dark so stuck my head under the covers and tried to ignore it ;D
Honeyb

Now Sunny and still
-
Poured most of Thursday afternoon: with rain, hail and snow :-\
The rest of the weekend has been glorious - thank goodness ;). Chilly breeze now and the fog is rolling in ::) - washing is on the line blowing gently
-
Freezing here, as usual. So miserable looking out there. Weather is depressed! ;D
-
Sun sun & more sun. Spent 2 days gardening face feels a little sunburnt 8) body feels like it may never get up again. I nearly put a vest top on but stuck to a t shirt :-*
-
Cold, damp and misty - where's the sun we were promised? >:(

It's up here ;D
Still blowing really hard though.
Honeyb

Clouding up to rain now :-X

Very grey, thermometer says it's 14C, didn't feel it.

Taz x

Breaking through as a sunsets ……….

It's definitely you although I am probably a few hundred miles further north. ;D I have just turned on my heating. It's cold up here today.
Honeyb

Turns out it's not me - 15 degrees outside!
Come to sunny Yorkshire HB.

Hope you are not going commando ;D.
Distinct lack of sunshine up here. Good job the scenery makes up for the shocking weather.

Glorious day here sunny and warm.

Beutiful sunny warm day

Cold, dull, misty and probably polluted :(

Sahara sand cloud !!!! But not Sahara weather...perhaps that is coming next ?
-
Dismal!
-
Dismal and depressing :(
-
Heavy overcast very early this morning it was sand coloured, yesterday we were Code Red.
Last night my chest felt heavy and I was coughing and used inhaler, but it might been house dust as I was clearing out books and stuff for Charity Shop.
Starting to clear now but still warm and muggy.
-
Dry, not cold, trying to be sunny
-
Dull until mid-afternoon. Sun tried to come out. Chilly. Heating on ::)

Sun has just made an appearance... Sunset colours are gorgeous 8)

Got a jumper on and my winter slipper boots. I'm freezing.

Blustery! light drizzle …….. sun is getting some warmth now

Very wet. Summer is back on Wednesday apparently.
-
Blustery. Drizzling. Quite warm .........

Quite bright, dry with occasional spots of rain. Not bad really. Bit more warmth would be good.

Dry and bright with occasional showers here in Munich. Much like it is back home :)
Galadriel x

Ah Munich, went for day trip several years ago. Lovely city. Rained day we were there too! ::)

Started off bright and sunny but that BLACK cloud has emptied itself all over our garden ;D

Just emptied itself over ours too. At least I got gardening done.

Honeyb

Sunny and hot is due down here - eventually ::): will let you know ;)

Lots of weather here today......you name it we have had it
Variety is the spice of life I guess ;D

Right now it's pouring, the sky is grey, the room is dark ……. apparently Summer *is* on the way!
-
Sorry to be smug but Scotland's West Coast gets rubbish weather usually.
Not today. I sat outside and coughed ::) rather than inside.
We had a BBQ for dinner. Blink and you miss the good weather up here so we learn to make the most of it.
Honeyb

East scotland, sunshine, showers and wee bit of thunder and lightning thrown into the mix.
Was speaking to someone in cyprus today and they were complaining it had been raining there for a few days - made me feel better to know that its not just us.

Brilliant sunshine just now.

We're missing out on the sunshine. :( DD says it's scorching with them. Better keep that weather as I'm heading down a week Monday, for a few days. ;)

Very sunny and warm. Going to sit out (well lie out) after I've got a few jobs done.

Nip over here for the evening? Blue sky with fluffy clouds, we have a nice patio on which to sit ;)

I got a nice patio too, just need to sit wrapped in duvet. ;D Daughter not sharing either. Will be well hacked off if good weather gone by time I get there. Son heading down tomorrow for a week.

Heating!

east coast of Scotland, all day grey sky and 12 -13 degrees.

The wind comes straight from Russia Linsey ;) nowt to stop it!
Lovely evening here ……...
-
Think it must have a wind chill too Linsey. Blooming freezing. Heating been on too. Knew I'd switched it off too soon. ;D Never cast a cloot as they say.
-
It's horrible here... hot and sunny... swap with you Linsey and CG ;D
I have been really good and had a walk in the sunshine with bare arms yesterday - I've listened to the docs advice re vitamin D - but I much prefer to sit inside and look at it rather than be in it.
Taz x

Well done Taz!

You need to sit out in the sun Taz with your headphones on listening to a storm on an iPod. :)

A little more cloud today and a breeze.
A mackerel sky so heralding a change in weather in about three days.

You need to sit out in the sun Taz with your headphones on listening to a storm on an iPod. :)

Not as bright as yesterday but still pleasant.
Some snow still on big hills opposite.

Snow looks lovely on the tops ;)

On the tops yes.
There's not much, it's getting less, however.......
-
No ski-ing then ……. lovely evening sunshine pouring into our lounge :-*
-
Barely had it scorching, yet God decides to start moving his furniture. So inconsiderate! ;D Been rumbling in the distance for 90 minutes, slowly getting closer.
-
Ooooooo I love a good thunderstorm.
Hope it does not keep you awake though.
Honeyb
x
-
I like them during the day, don't appreciate them at night. However, more spectacular against a night sky. Most amazing one we saw was in Cuba. No rain. We watched it outdoors whilst drinking our cocktails. It was a few miles out to sea, but was absolutely amazing. When we were in Florida 3 years ago DD's partner actually captured a bolt of lightening over Epcot. The photo takes pride of place in their hall.
-
Sunny this morning. Thinks it's going to rain.
-
A little cooler here today than it was yesterday, but yesterday we got a good chunk of father-in-law's garden done, re-homed a stroppy cockerel, got tomato plants into 6 grow bags in poly tunnel, more carrots and spring onions sown, netting over sliding doors end to keep the birds out, sweet pea plants outdoors, so much to do there, and it was all in the blazing sun, but rain is forecast for tonight so everything outdoors should get a good watering, and if we get thunder and lightning too.... fan-tastic...
-
Well somebody got the thunderstorm, but not us. Rumbled in distance for about 3 hours or so. Today, it's muggy, hazy sunshine.
-
Very warm sunshine, humid but breezy, feels very continental, the change is due in a few days according to local weather forecast.
Have eaten outside, bliss 8)
-
Very warm and humid. Got a few drops of rain but nothing much. A good ten degrees warmer than yesterday.
Honeyb

-
Hot and sticky in our office >:(
And it'll be hot at home too - our house is a heat-trap and it's very difficult to cool the upstairs rooms down. even with windows open at both sides and fans on, it still doesn't cool down. And I can't sleep when it's warm :-\
-
Hot and sunny is Scarborough :)
-
Thunder getting closer by the minute.
Honeyb

They said the west would get it this evening. We've got a haar creeping in, bringing temperature down a few notches.
-
Hot and sunny here too - further inland from you ellie 8)
-
Rain, thunder & lightening in the afternoon.
Same forecast for tomorrow.
Phone line and broadband very unhappy. Bband horribly slow.
So, probably won't be on here for some time.
-
Thunder and huge flashes lightning overhead and torrential rain eek!! :o Must turn computer off. We usually get power cuts with storms round here....
Hurdity x

Huge thunderstorm been going on for nearly two hours now. The dog is not happy at all.

Wish we could have a storm it's hot and humid and its almost ten in the evening! The clouds kept building up but it has not rained yet hate it when it's like this it's going to be hard to sleep tonight.
-
Not sure about thunderstorms, but son says it's been 25 degrees in Notts.

It's started up again and I want to go to sleep.
Had enough of thunder and its still very humid.
Honeyb

Hope you slept eventually HB.
Today has started much as yesterday finished. Misty. Only 9 degrees.

Still no rain but a little cooler and not so oppressive, but no sun.
May favourite weather is crisp warm sunshine and cool at night :)
-
Warm and sticky - ominous looking clouds in the sky!

Sun has come out and humidity much less, it feels really pleasant now, even though we have had no rain :)

Bit dull, a bit chilly a bit meh. At least it's dry, for now.

Grey, not cold, dry for now, no thunder Yaayyyyy

Lovely sunny day until about 30 mins ago.
Grey clouds and a bit of rain now.

Much cooler and cloudy we have has some rain but not much, first time for a few years that its been cool and raining when we have gone to vote for local elections.

Monday - sunny and dry; Tuesday began misty, sun broke through mid-morning, lovely and warm; big storm at 10.30 p.m., thunder, lightning the works ::) : bright start to Wed and lovely all day; poured yesterday; fine until 5.30 a.m. today then poured but dry enough to take down the awning which will require drying …..
-
Daughter's neck of the woods still warmer than up here. Only just in double figures here. Maybe once June has sprung it'll perk up. Was so cold here yesterday, wind chill made it 4°.
-
It gets cold down here too ;)
Drizzling hard through bright sunshine ::)
-
10 degrees when we got up this morning - atrocious as last week it was in the high 20's. It has been so wet and windy and looks to be like this for the next 3 days.
Wish it would perk up

High winds here at times too :o sunshine flooding into the lounge now ….

Very wet >:(

Bank Holiday then ::) followed by half-term?

Cloudy, but dry here, light breeze. 2 loads of washing out drying, hopefully.

It was very gloomy and dark here because of the rain but still light for quite a long time. Countdown begins to the longest day - just over three weeks. Anyone going to Stonehenge?
Taz x :)
-
Went to Stonehenge many moons ago. Paid a fortune for 4 is us to get in and you didn't see any more than you could from the car park/road.
-
Avebury stone circle is far superior I reckon - you can have a picnic in the stones.
Taz x
-
I have been up to the Stones and touched them when I was in my twenties before it was all fenced off, have the photos and saw the figure that is seen between the Alter Stone.
When the guide was showing us some photos, I said I can see a figure and he said many people see it. Its always stuck in my mind. It is a strange place.

I agree it is very atmospheric but since they fenced it off it's always Avebury where I go to if I want to just "be".

Absolutely chucking it down with rain this morning. >:(
Dull & murky.
Won't be going far today.
-
Dull
Drizzling hard
Everything is wet - up to and back from the chickens, one requires a wet suit ;D
Not cold though
-
Well, it's chilly, dingey and pouring with rain, but I always think supper tastes so much cosier when it's like this!
::)
-
Chilly
Drizzling all day
Fed up now :'(
-
It was dry all day up until half an hour after I started work in the garden. Gritted my teeth and carried on until I had 2 shrubs cut down and chopped into bits and into the wheelie bin. Bin now full. That's the 3rd wheelie bin I have filled in 2 days (mine and 2 neighbours!). Progress.............
Bramble

Sounds as if you need a machete Bramble. ;D. Well done on all your hard work. You could always come and tackle mine next.
Dry here all day but windy and cool.Nice weekend coming up I think so looking forward to that.
Honeyb

-
Yes Hb, I may need a machete. Some of my shrubs are just getting a bit out of hand. If it is nice at the weekend, the task de la jour is scarifying the lawn to try and get a lot of the moss up! A gardener's work is never done! Then back to the shrubs!
Bramble
-
Been cool and wet since the weekend ... and our boiler burst on Friday so we have no heating until the new boiler is fitted next Wednesday! Could really do with putting it on for an hour just to take the chill/damp off!
-
Can you borrow any heaters from friends Scampi just to tide you over?
Taz x
-
We've got a halogen heater from our camping days in the garage ... it might be coming inside tonight!

Less rain today and the forecast is better for the weekend 8)

Brighter today but not much sun yet.

Started out beautiful without a cloud in the sky, so I put sheets into wash, the weather forecast last night said it could start to get cloudy around four this afternoon, well there are dark clouds looming now and the washing machine is still going ::)
-
Dull here in Notts but quite toasty. Sunshine back home, or so I'm told. ;D
-
Slightly better. Dull yesterday. Dull earlier, then the sun cam eout and it's warm enough to sit by the ponds with a cuppa! :gym:
-
Absolutely toasting this morning until about 2, then clouded over. Sun out again now.
-
Pleasant enough evening, I've done 2 hours weeding ……. at last !

Hoping for sun tomorrow's, DH birthday lunch 8)

Oh where'you going? BarBQ at home, gentle walk to the Pub for a light lunch, balloons ……..

Sunday lunch at the pub for 23 !!!!!!
Balloons, cake all the gubbins....oh and a little wine perhaps ;D
-
ENJOY! :cancan:

Thanks, I may well be dancing ;D ;)

Damp and grey here at the moment although the forecast says sunshine ... where on earth are they looking ?!!!!
Hoped it would be warm as loads of laundry to do. Yesterday it was 23° until 6 pm when we had a thunder storm
Meggie

Brighter today. Clear sky until an hour ago, clouding up now ........ had to weed in the shadey parts of the garden 'cos the sun on my back was too much :o
-
Warm but overcast most of yesterday until tea time. Ended up out all night on the patio with the chiminea going, watching the bats whoosh round the garden.
Today - wall to wall sunshine :sunny: :meltdown:

A bit dull all day and now the rain is on.

Cloudy, but dry & warm.

I'm going to throw stones at that cloud so that it goes away :D

Good luck with that CLKD.

It went away when I had glared at it for 10 mins.. ………. oh the power of a stare ;D
Getting it's own back this morning - more light drizzle but I can hear a wren singing :-*
2 pairs of socks still on the line dripping ::)

Still bright and sunny ……..
Dulciana - have you dried out yet?
-
Heavens have opened!
-
Was lovely, kids out playing in village park until it started to seriously chuck down around 5pm and it hasn't stopped since.
Supposed to have been going to airport to pick up the husband at 1am, decided against it and booked him a taxi. I'll be popular - NOT!!
-
Thunder, pouring with rain and very humid, perfect summer weather ::)
-
Absolutely pouring down. Thunder is forecast too, just hope it doesn't take the phone and broadband out, we need both at the moment.

Sunny just now, hope it lasts long enough for me to get my washing dry.
Honeyb

Ditto HB. Thunder forecast for later here. :(

Beautiful sunny day, just like 10 yrs ago when i was having our daughter. Taking her out for food and a run around a park after school. :)

Raining here now, not too heavy though.

We are sitting in the evening sun, birds singing: air is absolutely still, no breeze but plenty of small flies!
-
Very, very clammy. Lying on top of bed trying to cool off. Need some rain or something to clear the heavy air.
-
To warm and humid here too, especially at night.
-
Very warm here in Worcestershire ,hubby just mowed the lawn and off now to walk to the local town before it gets too hot though I feel sticky already- the joys of hot flushes !
Finally feel all the side effects of starting citalopram have worn off and feeling better in myself- Doc says to stay with 10mgs for now and hope for more improvement.Hope everyone has a nice day.
-
Very dull up here. Rained during the night which helped a little bit. Still mild though.
-
Started sunny - now dull, not cold though.

Hot yesterday
Storm in the early hours
Woke at 4.20
On here watching the mist rolling …...
-
12 degrees. Wish I could put my heating on. I'm frozen.
-
Poor you CG. Wish I could send some of this horrible humid heat up to you!! Fantastic storms overnight - non-stop thunder and lightning from 10.30 pm to 5 a.m. but that hasn't freshened anything up somehow.

Not cold here and it was very warm in the night. Hope the sun comes out soon.

Dont know havent opened blinds yet. Being lazy today.

Been so humid these last few days and nights ( hate hot airless humid nights) but today seems more promising its warm sunny and far less humidity, hope it continues :)

Had a little rain this morning.

Cold at 12 degrees, what'll you do when Winter arrives ;)
Woke to 2/3 vivid flashes of white lightning followed immediately by a HUGE clap of thunder …. storm rolled on for ages, DH got up eventually and shut the window against the teeming rain ::). After a dull start, the sun came out mid-afternoon ……..
-
;D CLKD. I'm not feeling too good at the moment. Got stinker of a cold, so been a bit feverish. Got up this morning & the house felt very cold to me. Hubby was in a T-shirt, so it was definitely just me.
Sun making feeble attempt to break through a black sky.
-
Sunny and pleasantly warm most of the day.
Got a bit dull in the afternoon but sunny now.
-
Hope y ou feel better tomorrow! Summer colds are worse than Winter ones >:(
Calm. Bright blue sky. Sunny.

Think of it as protein Limpy ;D. Horrible thing to do though.
Sun is trying to come out here, hope it makes it as we are having a bbq and I don't want to have to cook it inside.
Honeyb

How does the fly feel ;D
Dull >:(
-
HB - Protein yes, wasn't too keen on the mouth feel though....... ;D
CLKD - You must have been talking to my OH, his comment?
"Bet the fly feels worse"
Thanks oh light of my life, mind you MOTO3 /2 was on at the time, so perhaps not surprising.
Still sunny here, even through the hordes of flies ::)

Wet

A wee bit muggy

Cold in the night, needed my leccie blanket on ::)
Dull

Electric blanket? Are you joking?
-
Electric blanket, I would die of heat suffocation :o from the inside out.
Its dull warm and humid here, the usual, I want some crisp warm sunshine and cool at night :) why do we get so much humidity in Britain?
I think I would like Desert weather once in a while ;D
-
We have, wait for it.............. :sunny: :D
-
Yep. Woke several times chilly ………. and now it's drizzling
-
Don't even own an electric blanket. Max 4tog does me, only when bitter in the winter do I throw on a throw.
-
Chilly. Drizzling. Breezy.

Dull to begin with but Sunny and Warm now.

Been lovely and sunny. Just clouding over now

Enjoy it whilst it stays :D
-
Oh I will. Not often it happens up here.
Tomorrow if the weather stays fine I am going to take my feet for a paddle up to my knees ;D. Hubby won't come in, he says it's far too cold, so he carries my shoes. I knew I married him for something ;D

First time I have had a short sleeved tshirt on while working in the garden. Kept sitting down it was so hot. Lovely evening as well.
Bramble (central Scotland)
-
Still 14° up here in Northern Scotland. Going to be a sticky night tonight.
-
I never knew you lived in Northern Scotland cubagirl.
Weather here (NorthWest) England , a little fresher but still warm and a little dull now.
HB so wish I lived by the sea, I would paddle every day in summer :) When we do go to the our nearest coast (Southport) you can't see the sea its so far out. My daughter lives in Lowestoft, its lovely there, and guess what she hates the sea :o
-
Lowestoft probably isn't the best place from which to view the C ;) :o
We have wall-to-wall sunshine, I've been weeding the patio but have moved into the shade - to watch a blackbird picking up live meal worms, another pecking at a lump of hard cheese (both males) and a young blackbird following the parent - oh No 3 male - arrived with a flutter of wings! It's all GO actually, now it's closer it's another fledgling :-*
-
That's why I'm always complaining about the cold silverlady. ;D
However, nice 18° today. No sunshine, but very clammy.
-
No CLKD in Lowestoft the sea always comes in nearly up to the sea walls when the tide comes in, its Southport which doesn't see the sea close up ;D
http://www.lifeinnortherntowns.com/2012/04/southport.html
-
Started off dull and cloudy but now the sun is out again :)
-
Going for my paddle this afternoon :)
It will be cold but your feet feel like new afterwards.
Honeyb

-
Is DH ready with the towel ?
Clouding up now :-\
-
I could put my feet in a basin of cold water and add some salt ;D some cooling essential oils would be even better, maybe not quite the same though.
-
I love a warm bowl of water for my feet ;) ……..
-
My feet feel brand new.......pity about the rest of me ;D
It was lovely but still very cold.
Honeyb
x
-
Glad you managed to get a paddle - will you go again?
Still warm!
-
Today's been hot and sultry, then the weather broke with some heavy rain mid-afternoon, thank goodness. Don't like the heat - it clogs up my brain cells. Am now lying on the living room floor with two fans going and fresher air outside. Nice. :)
-
Yes I will go again regularly. Our community garden is on the shore so it's nice to go clean up in the sea. There are not many of us do but I really enjoy it. The sea is clean and clear. I will have a swim at some point. It's only five mins from home so it's easy. Hubby won't go in. He rarely did but I was brought up swimming in the sea regularly as a child so I did the same with my kids. They both sail occasionally and have all the kit. It's a great thing to do and they made loads of friends at our sailing club.
Honeyb

-
I love the sea too HB - if I have had one of those days - I drive the 3 miles to our nearest beach - my sanctuary. I love it when the tide is full in - I can sit for hours just watching and listening. It is so peaceful it recharges me .
Today has been very warm and I am very fat :(. Makes me so unhappy having out on so much weight yet I don't feel motivated to do anything. Beautiful evening tonight sat by the pond. I do like this weather but don't like it too hot.
Sleep tight my lovelies :)
-
Get you to the sea, it heals the soul.
If I had all the money in the world I would still live here next to my sea looking out to the islands.
My son does not come home very often.When he does he heads to the sea. He says he will move back eventually. It worms it's way into you and never leaves.
Don't bother about your weight it really doesn't matter and can be dealt with when you feel better.
Go somewhere that brings you peace and makes you feel better.
Honeyb

-
Ever so sticky tonight!
I live fairly near the sea, but to dip my big toe in would result in severe frostbite, even at this time of year. Eldest GD loves it though, always on her list of things to do when visiting. Needs a big cup of hot chocolate afterwards mind you. ;D
I remember swimming off Millport some 30 odd years ago. It was unbelievably cold. My swimsuit was blue as was I. That was in July too. I got a cold & was poorly for rest of holiday with my friend. She must have been far hardier than me. She was fine.
My mum was a great believer in a good paddle though.
-
Thanks HB xxx
Yes the sea is cold isn't it - my husband will take a dpi but I'm not that brave! I just love the sounds and the smell and the ambience of it all :)
-
Crocodile Rock CG.
It's still there ;D
Honeyb
x
-
;D Had photo taken beside it. Going to be singing that all day now. Over 40 years ago. Has it been repainted over the years, it was pretty faded then.
-
Yes it gets repainted regularly. All change on Millport. Lots of money been spent but they have stopped the Waverley calling in as the pier is needing repairs. That will cut down on tourist numbers this year.
We still pop over a couple of times a year. The Cathedral is just lovely.....so peaceful.
Honeyb

-
Lovely and sunny. By the ponds. Cooling breeze. Not warm enough for swimming and the sea is never 'that' clear down here ::)
-
Just back from dentist & fried in the car. 22° out there. Came in to find hubby searching for a jumper :o Told him to sit outside for 5 mins. ;D Maybe he's getting my cold.
Probably wouldn't recognise Millport these days. Friend & I cycled round it a few times. One part scared us though, like a scene from The Birds. Hundreds & hundreds of them lying in wait. Never took off thankfully.
-
Very warm and sunny.
-
Had that horrible 'wet' rain :-\ this morning.
It's been cloudy,dull & humid.
-
Hot and humid now starting to rain

Rain progressed into an amazing storm with thunder and lightning.

Big dark clouds looming now. :(

Too warm to sit outdoors :o ……… loverley loverley loverley ……… :-*

Oh So Hot here - 35° and I'm sat inside, on here, with the air con running. Hopefully will be able to take a dip in the pool later - it's 29° in there so will be really refreshing. OH has cleaned the pool and it's beckoning me!!
Thunders storms forecast for tonight and the next 4 days though and possibly HAIL ..... EEeeeeek

Aahhh you're back in the sunny climes the Meggie ;)

Pretty please send some sunshine to NE Scotland. It's been dull most of the day here with rain sprinkles.

I have been trying to get it to shine on you CG but it just refuses to budge!
Taz x

Bright here today.
Not hot, had to put jeans & socks on this afternoon. Tragic ;D
Taz you just might cope, sunny but not too hot
-
It was 32 in the shade by our garage here in Devon at midday. I've been in vest and short shorts since I came back from shopping. Socks in mid June Limpy :o - it must be cool !!!
Hurdity x
-
Ha ha - I've still been in my jeans and boots but did wear a t-shirt instead of a jumper. It's been really warm here today but I am just not in summer mode and, actually, I have only got boots and trainers I realised today - no summer footwear at all. Might have to drag myself around the shops tomorrow.. ;D
Taz x
-
I feel I should clarify the socks thing, they are required IN the house.
I live in an old stone house with quite thick walls - 4' thickest 2'thinnest in main old part of the house. It stays cool - usually go outside to warm up ::) Mind you, it's not got above 15C here today.
Taz - you do realise don't you that if and when you get summer footwear winter will break out ;D
-
Limpy I had socks on too. Still not as bad as few years ago, when my lightweight linen trousers never saw the light of day. Weather was so bad. Think that was 2 years back. I was in jeans all through that summer, unheard of!
-
Limpy - I hadn't thought of that! Off to town then!
Taz x
-
Bought your flip flops yet Taz? ;D
Weather getting boring. Where's the sunshine? SIL has promised to bring some when she & my brother visit in 2 weeks. They'd better, or I'll send them home. ;D
-
It's very humid here today and the wind is getting up - forecast at speeds of 40km per hour so just been outside to make sure that tomatoes are tied up adequately - high winds sometimes lift the plants out.
Expected thunder storms last night but they didn't come ..... probably later - we need some of the wet stuff !!
Meggie
-
Pleasant - Sunny and 17C
-
Lovely,sunny,comfortably warm.
-
Heavy rain now :(
-
Oh Meggie ........... did anyone see the double tornado across the UK last week?
Warm - had to come indoors. I've taken off my socks :o ...... will wait until the Autumn sales, my feet have grown at least half a size so will need to buy lots of shoes ....... I grudge the time going shoe shopping :D
-
Double tornado in the UK? Where? I know there was a double tornado in America last week.

Lovely and sunny this morning. Sat in the garden and listened to the singing in the church. Then it clouded over all afternoon but lovely sunny evening now.

weather better than forecast but it's not exactly hot either. Some weak sunshine in between clouds. Had to water the pots as not the 'heavy downpour' they forecast ,more like 10 mins of drizzle this morning.

Hi Oldsheep, I've had to water a few pots of plants too - they were hanging their heads due to lack of a drink ::)
Big Black Cloud up there again ..........

Damp and dull. Not particularly cold though, wearing jeans and tee shirt.
-
It turned colder and colder as the morning wore on with the light drizzle - so am now in Winter clothing :-\
Sun's out now ::)

Thunderstorms one after the other today and torrential rain. It gets really dark just before a storm hits. Husband can't get on to the allotment and is having to sit on the sofa and watch old war films.. what a shame...

At least he's not in the shed at the allotment ;)

Not bad - 13C at 11.15am , 17C at 3pm.
Can't complain.
-
30C here (I live in Sofia, Bulgaria). But a bit of wind so it feels less hot.
-
Lovely today.
Sunny,warm, blue skies and ............no rain :)
-
I have a friend who married a Bulgarian singer in the 1990s ……… she was 'well known' in Sophia ….
Cloudy. When the sun shines it is HOT! then the air cools …….

Lovely today, warm and sunny.

Rain storm last night - could hear the thunders - and much coller this morning but sun is out. Windy. Shouldn't have watered the garden last night but how do you know!!
-
HB we had some sunshine until about 10am, rather pleasant. But now it's dull again. :(
-
Perfect warm sunny day, no clouds in the sky :) its a lull between Fronts though.
-
Yeah sun's back out. Not quite bikini weather, but nice to see some blue sky for a change.
-
Blue sky. Warm in the shade. Hot out of it. Bees buzzing in the background, water falling gently over the ponds …. between the different levels ……..
-
Ahhhh sounds lovely CLKD ;D
Sunny and very warm here.
Cold in the shade so I've moved my chair round in the sun to warm up.
Won't be long before I'm back in the shade.Don't like being too hot >:(
There's no pleasing some people....... ;D
-
Such a shame its gone dull but still warm and humid.
-
Warm and Sunny here in Scotland, - nice change :D
-
Sun is flooding through our lounge window :-*
-
Sky's still blue. Shame it goes downhill tomorrow with rain forecast for us. :(
-
Showers expected over the weekend: of course, it's F1 Grand Prix, Grand Depart, open gardens ……. >:(
Today has been warm, sunny and now muggy ….

Warm, but very dull. Can't have it all I suppose. ;)

Started to rain mid afternoon. Guess the garden could do with it.
Prefer the sun though.

Ground could certainly do with a shower. Washing out: blown hard: in as it looks like drizzle in the air …..
-
If it stays windy, the washing will still probably dry, even with a bit of drizzle.
Somebody told me this once, I didn't believe them, but it works.
Not "putting away dry" but not wet.....

Gorgeous.
It should get up to 26 degrees today, hottest day of the year.

Tomorrow looks awful! Reckon tennis will be under the roof. Tour de France in Yorkshire will be interesting.

Lovely and sunny,warm but breezy.

In Scarborough, warm and breezy :)

Very windy, but at least it's a warm wind. Few sprinkles. Hope it stays off until I get back from hairdresser this afternoon.

Very warm.
Tour de France will be interesting on Sunday, 2nd day - all those slippery corners which loop back on themselves, drove up it last week :-*
-
The area is bonnie when dry, but if rain & mist it's none too pleasant.
Rain didn't amount to much here, not yet anyway.
-
Drizzle just starting. Pity the poor campers ;) but our plot does need a gentle over-night soaking
-
Spoke too soon, chucking it down now.
-
Really heavy rain bouncing off the patio.
-
Bright sunshine pouring in through the window ;) - air still chilly though :-\ when the sun goes behind a cloud

Rained all morning - thank goodness said the garden. Dry now though. Not cold although I do have a cardi on.

We've had warm sunshine, wind, dark clouds, torrential rain and thunder today in SW! Lovely and sunny now!

Grey and gloomy. Like so many Julys. (Not last year, but the 3 before that). I need my sunshine back!

Started bright then rained, scared the roofers off.
Now bright sunshine.

Don't reassure the dog, makes them worse! Ignore, ignore, ignore ;)
Sun is pouring through our windows :-* :-X
-
Been quite nice today. Hazy sun 18°
-
CLKD, talking of dogs and thunder reminded of my little Yorkie ( passed away now).
He was terrified of thunder.....then I read an article about how to calm dogs during a thunder storm. It said to ignore them, don't give them eye contact,keep yawning as though you are totally bored, no stroking ETC.......
Well it was like a miracle, my Yorkie was transformed into a totally chilled out dog.
So when we got another dog, and she showed signs of being afraid of thunder, I followed the same rules........and.....it just doesn't work on her ::) :-\
-
Have you tried putting the radio/TV on loudly? Sometimes though dogs can 'feel' the change in the atmosphere before a storm arrives!
Dull. Chillier ………. night time then ;)
-
Sorry if I giggle. I used to have to do this with my two kids! Radio on, lights on & they fell asleep again. ;D
-
Cloudy,very windy but warm.
-
Very windy here too, but at least the sun is out & it's reasonably warm.
-
Blustery. Grey clouds. Blue sky. :sunny:

Sunny, breezy and dry.

Still as above :-* - going to sit in the sun soon.
-
Just driven from East coast to West coast.......sunshine all the way :sunny: :sunny: :sunny:
-
Hot and sunny here.
I have had dogs all my life. Some are more sensitive than others to thunder. My Irish Setter could not have cared less. My Retreiver who was supposed to be a gun dog even hated party poppers. The kids were banned from anything that popped or banged as the dog would take off. My Bichon goes to firework events but does not really like thunder. She hides on her own in a corner or comes and sits on your lap for a cuddle. I have never treated any of them any different but they have / had different personalities so react differently. I don't fuss or anything like that but like people they react in different ways no matter what you do.

Hi
Many roads flooded here in Norfolk after more heavy rain. Stuck on the A 47 between 4.30 and 7pm trying to do the 45 miles home........Grr and boy did I need the loo, not good situation

Dull,dreary,cloudy,breezy.........................sigh!

22° Here

Not sure it's possible to use a Shewee sitting down though - it would leak! They are designed to be used standing - like a man!
Beautifully hot and sunny - it was already 22 (how do you do degrees on the comp?) at 8.30 am this morning. Loving this :sunny: :sunny: weather except I have lots to sort out workwise indoors and don't feel like staying in!

Clouded over about six after a roasting hot day. Got changed out of my shorts for the first time in days (well actually I only wear them about the house).
Got my trakkies on now and a T shirt with sleeves.

My computer keyboard doesn't have pages :-\ . There's a number keypad but I don't use it but there isn't a ° symbol anywhere!!! Ha! I see I've got one on my smartphone but only just discovered that page. Never go on the forum on my phone though - would take too long to post!

:sunny: with rain from the West by mid-afternoon :-\ so have been weeding in the shade but now too hot outside.

21° today, very clammy. I'm opening windows to get air, hubby closing them again, too much air he says. ??? Think we're to get the rain overnight & tomorrow morning.
-
Its very humid here too and now we are starting to get clouds so hopefully we may get some rain to freshen it up, I have been sleeping well lately but waking up muggy headed, not a fan of humidity. Trouble is for weeks we have had cloud build-up some very dark looking and stormy but no rain ???
Windows all open day and night here but still very warm at night.
-
It was very muggy here last night too. Duvet off, duvet on, window open but it made no difference as there was not a bit of fresh air.
We have rain now but it's still not fresh.
Makes me tired and lacking in energy to do anything.
Honeyb

-
Me too HB no energy today, last night about eleven o'clock someone was burning rubbish!!it was awful and I couldn't breath so had to go around shutting all the windows, so it was stifling, had to wait a few hours until we could open them again.
Who ever it is has just staring burning stuff again!!!!
Do wish we lived near the sea :)
-
It's 19° but feels very muggy and humid
-
Dull & dreary first thing but by midday the sun broke through- yay!
Gorgeous now. :)
Bright sunshine,warm........,, lovely!
I have hung the washing out today. Haven't been able to do that all week.
Has summer finally reached me? :-\
-
We are not allowed to burn garden rubbish here. My friend did that and the fire brigade arrived and she got an official warning 8)
Yes being next to the sea can help a bit when there is a breeze but last night was so still.
Hopefully we will all get a better nights sleep tonight.
Honeyb

Burning rubbish was banned in Scotland many moons ago. TBH I thought it was banned UK wide when they changed to smokeless fuel.
Last night I slept on top of the bed, no sheets or duvet. Bedroom was at 24.5° for best part of the night. At 7 this morning it was 23° Hate not sleeping because of heat. Shouldn't complain, don't get it that warm these days.
-
It is banned cubagirl, we have just looked it up online, it can be reported to Local Council, if it is habitual and effects heath, I told OH to print it out and shove through their door (we worked out where it is coming from this afternoon) don't think he will do it though. They are cutting down trees and burning it.
I had to use my inhaler and chest is easier now.
-
Very very muggy.
-
Its pouring with rain at last and cooling down, all my flowers and herbs have smiles on their faces :D hope it rains all night and we have fresh
sunshine tomorrow :)

Raining here now.
Pleasant temperature.
OH (not me) has been sleeping on top of the covers the last few nights......

No rain. Got the sprinklers on.

Oops, raining now.

Dulling down heaps now. Clouds rolling in from west.

Horrendously sticky. Lying on my chillow, lovely.

Started out OK, but now it's raining. At least I got my washing dry.

Cloudy. Breezy. Washing blowing .. should be dry by now

Absolute c***! I can't breathe. Severe asthma. High ozone levels and particulate matter and volte organic compounds. Right now the high Rocky Mountains sound inviting. We sold RV, thank God.
-
Every sympathy Trey. I have a variety of triggers. Can't chop chilli's, it's my worst trigger. I can eat them, now use dried chilli's. Some household cleaners set me off too. Changed brand which is easier on the breathing.
Today, is a not dull, but cosy.

hope your symptoms easier now?
hot and muggy here. Well, for London anyhow. Have to do public transport later so am going the long way to avoid the tube.

You *sold* that lovely camper :'(
Hot and :sunny:

Well jealous of setting sun over Arran. Must be gorgeous!
Today it's been good drying day at least. Tumble dryer has had a rest. ;)
-
I can see it from my dining room window if I stand on a chair ;D
Much easier to see from the the bottom of the garden though. It really was stunning tonight and I got some lovely photos.
You know what they say CG.
If you can't see Arran it's raining and if you can rain will be along soon. ;)

Think same is said of Ailsa Craig. But it's only the doon the water anyways. ;D
-
I remember the crowds coming doon the water for the fair fortnight. There were hoards of them. When I was little I used to watch them coming off the train with prams full of blankets and pillows and a bag of coal at the bottom of the pram with a couple of weans on top.
It was sight never to be forgotten ;D
We will have lost our southern friends with this one CG ;D
Honeyb

-
Nae doubt HB!
Them were the days, as they say. If you went doon the waater you were well off! ;D. Heck I remember a holiday with my mum to Largs. Now considering we lived in Paisley at the time, it was luxury! ;D My mother decided we should go by bus, much cheaper than train. I got excited when I saw water! ;D Onwards a few years and we stretched it to Brodick. Loved that holiday, mum hated it. We were decanted from overful hotel to a bungalow up a very dark lane. So not my mother's style. She was used to posh. I've tried to persuade hubby to go ever since, but wasting my breath. I remember the row of fisherman's houses at Corrie, a different shaped window in each house that the wives put candles in all those years ago to guide their men home, or something of that ilk.
-
Or Rothsay.
They came in their hundreds to Ardrossan. All the tenement flats were full to bursting. All the wifies and the weans. Remember seeing them paddling with the dresses tucked into the stocking tops. Formidable women. The town was over run.
Corrie is still the same, not changed a bit. Still the same cottages. Stayed in one a few years ago.
Glasgow first then Paisley then Greenock. They still close stuff for the fair.
Honeyb

-
I tucked ma skirts in ma knickers! ;D
-
:lol:
Some of the wifies were big women. Wouldn't have liked to come home with a broken packet. Their men always seemed wee compared to them.
Oh happy days watching them. It was better than a show.
The better off ones had prams the rest wheeled a bogie off the bus or the train.
Think they brought the contents of the house with them including the coal.

It's absolutely SOAKING in Lochinver! Just as well I've got my REALLY waterproof bright yellow jacket with me, that I bought in Honfleur ten years ago - fisherman-strength weather protection and good for at least another ten years! I'm not complaining, though. We're relaxing indoors while looking out over the loch. Am now bracing myself for a trip (in my yellow jacket!) to the village to get crisps, coke and cake. Otherwise known as unhealthy holiday food but essential for a rainy-day lunch............. :)
-
It's what's required on a miserable day. I was planning on buying a cake too, but as I'm trying to budge last few pounds before holiday I managed to restrain myself. ;)
As for the yellow jacket. I remember having one years ago, great things. Unfortunately I outgrew it. ::)

I am told
There is no such thing as bad weather just inappropriate clothing.

It's when it's horizontal, nothing keeps you dry then.

Blue sky
Washing blowing hard
It was the same in Kent - kids and mums came down for 'the picking' (hops) and Dads joined them at weekends. They lived in family groups in 'sheds' with out-door fires ……… it was there 2/3 week holiday.

God is moving house ;D Bit noisy, very inconsiderate

Especially if someone is trying to sleep ::)
We have planes above us, looks like lots are going on their hols.!
Also people bringing in the bins - black clouds above, don't' think I will be lazing on the patio for much longer >:(

Brilliant sunshine now. :)

Wet most of the day but a lovely sunny evening. Good forecast for tomorrow.

We dashed inside. But the rain moved round: again ::) …….. dull, lights on indoors …….. windows all open though to get a breeze through.

Hot sunshine so far, low humidity and it was cool for sleeping last night.
Perfect weather if the humidity holds off 8)

Humid last night until gentle rain began around 10.30 whilst I was in the bath, could have saved on water ;) laid in the bath listening to the spatter on our pond surfaces. Cooler this morning. HOT though!

Very clammy, especially in town. :sweatdrop: :sweatdrop: :sweatdrop:

Sunny with big a few big grey clouds.
Very hot.

Warmer and warmer as the day wore on - clear sky this evening .........

lots of thunderstorms in the night. Cool morning but a lovely day now. Poor OH - he's stuck in the office all week and tomorrow's supposed to rain.
-
I didn't know in the depth of sleep in the night whether it was lorries along the nearby road or thunder ::) - then I heard it raining, hard. Muggy now following a torrential storm between 8.30 and 9.00, the air was misty due to the humidity! Haven't hung towels out 'cos they will dry too hard ……….. sitting watching le Tour, they have hot sunshine too and they are cycling upwards :o
-
18° at 10am 24° at 11.30am.
Muggy, grey and still this morning.
Unlike CLKD I have hung my towels out, needs must ::)
When last checked they were doing ok.
Thunder forecast for tonight & tomorrow :-\
Will the phone / broadband survive?............
-
Do you get blips in your services when the weather is ruff?
Hot ……. DH is making a cuppa. Even the birds are quiet ……… it will be lovely in the evening, jasmine 'clotted cream' wafting over the patio in the cooling air ;)
-
One time, about 10 years ago, when the weather was ruff we didn't have a phone or broadband for 5 weeks. Similarly, about 7 years ago lightening struck a telegraph pole and split it in half, that was another 5 weeks with nothing. It's not been as bad since (a mere 2 or 3 weeks) but we still get twitchy when there's lighting.
When it rains the broadband is very very slow, not really usable really. The phone is so noisy that you can't hear what is being said ::)
-
Unbearably humid now, no thunder storms yet.
-
Really hot but very windy. Sat and watched wind surfers earlier. They were having a ball.
Think we might miss the storms but are going to get heavy rain tomorrow.

Oh to live by the sea HB :) I can't understand why my daughter who does says she does not like the sea or the beach.

Heatwave, what heatwave? I jest not. They promised us hot weather, yeah right. 17 degrees. Bit sunny, bit windy but not hot. DD was expecting hot sunshine, instead they have had rain. Who's doing the weather forecasting?
-
Cubagirl you will be able to sleep tonight while us heat bound souls will be tossing and turning and preying for a bit of cool :)
-
True, our day/night temperatures have been fairly similar. DDs will be 23 degrees tonight. It's actually getting warmer throughout the day there.
-
We have an amber weather warning here rain and severe flooding it said on the local News, its suppose to start about two or three in the morning, well that will cool things down.
No sign of it yet though.

it was 33 in our toyota at 4.45 p.m. down to 28 as we drove

No sign of any storms or rain yet, HB you were right I woke in the night to rumbles of thunder and lightening but nothing else, our weather
report today says 100% chance of rain and humidity 100%.
Just wring me out and hang me on the line, as I have been drinking loads of water but not much is coming out the other end in this heat and humidity ::)
I should lose pounds in water weight when the weather gets back to normal :)

Been raining on and off (mostly on) for 12 hours.

Our local weather forecast
This Evening and Tonight
Heavy and thundery showers this evening with hail and torrential downpours possible and a risk of flooding. Gradually becoming drier overnight with clear intervals developing leading to patchy low cloud and mist forming. Feeling somewhat fresher than recent nights.
Will be interesting to see if its right.

No rain no storms or hail yet, this morning lovely sunshine and the humidity has gone down, hopefully a perfect day.
The local weather forecast so far for us has been wrong, probably just lucky.

Sun for the next 3 days. :)

OK who has blue sky? I'm sick of grey! Supposed to be nice this week.

Cubagirl,
I do its beautiful today and its my day off :)
hope the sun shines for you later.

Just had rain, like the kind of spray mist we look for in hot places to cool off. Maybe later.

Warm and sunny, but thankfully not as much as last year - we live in a converted old school building and our living room has hugely high windows with those slightly see-through blinds. It's a lovely flat, but it can get really hot in here in the summer, even with the blinds shut and two fans going! :sweatdrop:

Been quite cosy here today. Got blue skies, albeit pale blue. Shame haar is making an appearance again.

Turned chilly as the sun went down ::)

Temperature dropped by 8° with haar. Can hear foghorn.

Pleased to announce clear blue skies, warm sunshine. We've had a long wait, but glad we've got it now. Great weather to take our grandkids to the beach! Eldest always has to have a paddle, but usually ends up soaked top to toe. ;D

Lots of towels required then? Have you tried one of those doggy dry bags, where the whole dog except the head is put in to wriggle off the water ;D

Lovely and warm today, sea mist came in around 7pm, making it much cooler - good for sleeping and cooling down bedrooms.
Downside to lovely weather is warm spells create fog at sea, the husband was due home 3days ago but is stuck on an oil rig (somewhere between shetland and norway) as the helicopters cant fly in fog. Missing him!

Scorching 23° clear blue skies.

That sound perfect cubagirl, our temperatures are due to drop to about that on Sunday, looking forward to it :)

I melt if it gets any hotter unless I can jump in a pool.
-
I'm melting. We've been out in HOT sunshine all morning, home now ……… I feel quite giddy with it all. :-\
-
Too much for me, wanna sit in front of the fridge with the door open.... ;D
-
Dramatic thunderstorm. World ending stuff. Bit peeved as had wanted to go to an open air cinema showing Shaun of the Dead this eve. More like Shaun of the Damp now.
-
It seems a little cooler this evening not much, but more bearable then yesterday.
The thermostat has gone in our fridge, so will have to buy a new one. have cleared it all out and without a fridge :o what did they do before fridges, the whole house is a hot house with no cold parts anywhere ::) We don't have freezer as the kitchen is too small and there is nowhere else in the house to fit one.
Funnily enough the freezer compartment is still working up to a point.
So that is tomorrows job.
-
PHEW! cooler now that dusk has arrived.
-
House is like a furnace!!! So darned hot. Had windows open throughout, but it made no difference. Haar cooled it for a short time, but sun came out again. Bedroom is 23.5°
-
Outdoors 25, indoors 24.5. Wind is warm, I'm hot. :sweatdrop: :sweatdrop: :sweatdrop:
-
Dull and a bit cooler here. Rain forecast for later and again tomorrow. Can't say I'm disappointed ::)

Warm. Washing out, in, dried, put away. Twice - 3rd line full is blowing gently
-
Getting a bit fed up of this hot weather now. I think I'm turning into Taz.
-
I find that if I turn the hose on the garden in the evening it's cooling ;) as well as good for the plants and helps birds find worms ……..
-
It's just started raining. Just played for a wedding and really glad the rain didn't spoil the day for the happy couple. :)
-
Still hot and sunny in Scarborough :sunny: :sunny: :sunny:
-
Still hot & sunny here too
-
Sky inky black here. Something is brewing. Nice cooling breeze though.
-
Raining and cooler. Been out and stood in it a couple of times.
Going to be able to snuggle up in bed tonight and not melt at mother's in the morning. It's ironing day so I'm very glad it's cooler as I have such a lot to do.

Getting cooler its bliss, my brain is coming back online ;D

Been sunny and warm, then a complete downpor at 6pm.
At least husband finally got home.
-
Hot. Fan is on flat out. :meltdown:
-
We had torrential rain about 10 o'clock last night, it then seem to get warm again, then about 12 it started to cool down again, and I had to put
my very thin summer duvet on, that's the last thing I remember until about 9.20 this morning :o still coming round from such a long sleep.
Its much cooler this morning cloudy and looks like we might have some more rain.
-
Cooler - Yaaayy

Cool and rainy......perfect ironing weather ;D

Torrential rain last night. Lovely day again & pretty hot.
-
Rain clouds drifted away. Cooler this evening. Slight breeze through the house.
-
Hot and humid. Monsoon season in the Arizona desert. Foul air from the inversion layer caused by being in a valley completely surrounded by mountains. Can hardly wait for our move to the Colorado Rockies.
-
Dull and raining here, the heatwave has certainly left us though its not cold.
Perversely now its much cooler at nights, these last few days I have not been sleeping well and not getting to sleep to about four :o can't really blame the weather just incessant brain chatter ::)
-
Dull but dry. Still quite warm though.
-
Lots of high speed drizzle today but not cold at all 15°
-
Dry all day. Very hot at times. At others I thought 'this is lovely, want more' ::)

Trey, that is quite a distance to move and a totally different climate. Are you finding the heat too much in Arizona? You will have to start knitting some woollies! For you, hubby and the dogs!
Bramble

Hi Bramble, it's the air quality that is very threatening to me. I can handle heat, but there air is so toxic that I've had asthma for the first time in years. I've lived in the place to which we are moving before. Can't believe I'm moving back to snow, but it is a spectacularly beautiful small town.
-
Trey,
I have followed your story over the past few turbulent years and I would just like to wish you all the best in the next new chapter of your life. Please share all your news with us - it's nice to see you settled and happy.
Bramble

Bootiful!!!
-
Much cooler this evening. And not exactly weather but it's starting to get dark noticeably earlier. The solar lights in the garden were on at 9:20 this evening.
-
Been windy and warm, good for the washing
-
Our weather has gone from the ridiculous to the sublime, I know I wanted it cooler but I still wanted summer!
Cloudy cool skies and a forecast of rain some heavy for the next week.
-
A bit mixed here. At least not so hot, but would like a bit more blue sky.
-
Mixed here too. Got my sheets dry though and now the towels are out but the clouds are building in the west.
Outlook is rubbish. Summer is on hold for the moment.
Honeyb

-
Cloudy here now. I managed to get some washing on the line today (long low line not a rotary one) which involved taking one item at a time out of the machine and wandering out to the garden with two clothes pegs each time. It took AGES and then the sun went in!
Taz x
-
Are U supposed to be bending and stretching :o
Muggy now. 2 days of hot sunshine with occasional over-cast skies which were welcome - rain forecast but still watered the pots this evening
-
Mixed here too.
Forecast looks dire for the weekend - supposed to be getting wood delivered.........
-
It's got very, very dark here. I've had to turn the lights on.
Taz x
-
We were like that yesterday. Expected thunder, but only torrential rain. Today is dull but dry.
-
Sunny here at the moment.
Weather warnings out for tomorrow. So much for going out.

Lovely here, warm but not too hot.

Muggy
Drizzling
Bright sunshine through dark clouds
County Agricultural Show on tomorrow - bound to POUR!

Lots of rain this morning - not too bad now.
Much more rain forecast for tomorrow.
We were going to get a wood delivery - shifted to Sunday now.

Very very very wet. :'(

Rain very very heavy

Wet wet wet.......Oh and quite cold too just for good measure.

Very wet this morning - sunny now

Cooler; cloudy; muggy; thunder which put the TV off; heavy drizzle followed by heavy rain; blue skies now ::)
-
Very wet & cold. Heating even came on.
-
Muggy with heavy showers, when the sun comes out it feels very warm.
-
My hubby, lying snoring on sofa, just said "Miserable day today" in between snores! ;D
-
;D ;D That made me laugh, nothing like sleeping on the sofa when its pouring with rain outside.
-
cool and breezy here on the south coast, just how i like it, got a nice little breeze going through my toes at the moment from the window, bliss!
-
It's been raining here since lunchtime. The garden really needs it so not too unhappy about it (although I think rain is forecast for most of next week!).
Bramble
-
Hopefully the garden will benefit! Another thunderstorm so loss of TV coverage again ::)
-
We had thunder and monsoon rain early evening yesterday and beautiful rainbow appeared. Last night it was much cooler for sleeping, I even had to put a throw over my summer duvet, but I slept like a log.
Today is partly sunny but I think cool for August ( it is a bank holiday of cause!)
-
Glad you got a good sleep silverlady :)
love a good storm..
is a beautiful sunny and breezy morning here, going to go for a walk along the shore.
Have a good Sunday x
-
Think the expression is showers - torrential rain one minute dry the next, quite blowy as well.
-
Trying hard to be nice here. Sun is slowly making its way through the clouds.
-
Autumnal. Wispy clouds which could turn to rain. Bank Holiday :-\ what have I missed?
-
Scottish Bank holiday.
-
:thankyou: - I didn't think I had slept August away ;D
-
Should have said its bank holiday weekend, we have another one too last week in August :)
-
that's greedy ;D :D ...........
-
Its bank holiday weekend in England too CLKD have a look in your Diary :) for tomorrow.
-
:-\ eeeehhh don't think we get ours in England/Wales until the end of August. Glorious 12th mid-month but the last BH is at the end ..........
-
I thought you were in England SL, or have you been drinking.
-
Its OH who kept on insisting its bank holiday on Monday, when he told me I was surprised, I just asked him again and said my forum ladies say
its not, and he said there use to be two bank holidays in August, I have just said go and check the Calendar, and you ladies are right!
He said his ipad told him, He even told me yesterday that when we go out for a meal on Monday it will be busy because its Bank Holiday :o
Not been drinking ;D that's what comes of being retired and not being ruled by work and calendars.
My excuse is that I am under the influence of Piriton still ::)
-
I just said to OH "Thanks now they think I'm potty" and he's laughing his head off ::)
-
Trouble is you confused me too SL ;D
Doesn't take much these days to be honest. ::)
It's been raining heavily here today. To get an idea check out the cycling in Glasgow at the moment.
Honeyb

Just watching it. The sights I had forgotten, even in the rain. ;D
Sunny here if you fancy a move north HB.
-
Sunny and breezy today. All bedding washed and dried. :)
-
Warm all day here. The heavy drizzle that fell yesterday filled my barrels! :o and the rain forecast for 2-day didn't arrive.
So work tomorrow then ;) unless like us, you are retired :ola: ……...
-
D'you want our rain CLKD - it's been here most of the day - we were supposed to be getting wood delivered today but have delayed it till when it's drier. What's the point of getting dry wood only to have it tipped onto soggy ground.
-
NO! rain will arrive when it's ready. A couple of day's time will do!
-
Been all sorts today, rain , sun and wind.
Good thing was I when I went to empty bins tonight I seen toad that has lived in our garden for years, every time I see him he gets bigger. Daughter got ipad out to film him walking along wall of house.
-
Currently rather muggy. Not much sleep tonight I fear.
-
Sunny. Washing out.
-
Sunny, washing machine on. Will get it dried really quickly today.
-
Frost is forecast in Scotland this week …….
April Showers today ::)
Chillier
-
Wheesht woman!
-
BBC Weather says so - that makes it a certainty then :whist:
-
Must be in the glens or mountains as according to their website it's to still be in double figures at night here.
Not unheard of mind you. In fact one year, about 20 years ago, it snowed on top of Ben Nevis in August. That summer had been scorching too.
-
Sunny, windy, washing dried really quickly
-
Hot sunshine, low humidity 8)
-
Bright sunshine now. 2nd load of washing dried ………
Intermittent showers forecast for all week ……….
-
Dull and dank.
Never mind Bertha hitting our shores tomorrow. Batten down the hatches ladies. National weather warning has been issued.
We returned from Florida 3 years ago to remnants of Katia. Worst landing ever at Gatwick. Daughter sat in front of us trying not to spew, turned round to find son's GF grabbing her seat doing likewise. Unbelievably bumpy.
-
Its beautifully sunny today, time to cut the meadow in my back garden and top up my tan :)
-
Sunny today. Rain forecast for tomorrow, all day. >:(

Sunny,warm & windy.
Rain forecast for tomorrow.

Sunshine and bit of a breeze, will help dry up the ground after all the rain yesterday.

After heavy overnight rain, the :sunny: is lovely but there are storm warnings :o
-
Dry and brightish all day - good as it was the local show.

This is the update for our area
"There is the potential for severe weather over much of the UK during Sunday as a depression tracks over, or close to, the UK. There continues to be a great deal of uncertainty in the forecast but the public should be aware of the risk of flooding due to heavy rain as well as very strong winds and large waves, particularly on the southern side of the depression. Given the unseasonable nature of the weather this could be sufficient to disrupt transport and make outdoor activities dangerous.
This is a particularly volatile situation, and this alert is likely to be updated as the event approaches. The public are advised to keep up to date with the latest forecasts and alerts through the weekend"
We have had a lovely warm dry day today and this evening is still the same, doesn't look as if anything will happen yet.
-
Same here SL. BBC is saying a bit of rain and light winds. Guy I spoke to at our marina who assured me he had been looking at up to date sailing charts says wet and very windy.
I know how I will find out....open my curtains in the morning. No one seems to know what we will get ::)
Honeyb

We've got horrific rain forecast for tomorrow, not too bad for wind.
Is this autumn?
-
Looks like total wash out tomorrow. Met office have wind at 18 mph. Think we can cope here, used to wind in North East.
-
Just checked another forecast & showing weather a lot worse. Not sure why some forecasts vary so greatly. Not just for this upcoming storm, but in general. Must get info from same radars etc.
-
Mum rang to tell us that thursday and friday was torrential rain and she feared that water would get into the house and this is in the Fens, March in particular was affected - but they are surrounded by fields that should seep into the rivers which should take the risk away; however - due to recent farming practices when fields aren't turned 'properly' and with the heavy machinery, top has become compacted so water 'stands' rather than running into the dykes. :bang: :bang: :bang:
We woke at 5.30 to hear it rattling down …….. which continued until 9.40 and it's heavy drizzle now. Colder too. Shoes I've chosen for the posh do won't do ……….
-
Poor you CLKD. I think the flooding in Cambridgeshire was due to more than just the impacted Fen soil though. They took a tremendous battering on Thursday night. I guess your mum is worrying due to the high coverage on the tv and radio about the ex-hurricane. I appreciate that people have to be made aware but this seems to have been hyped up to a ridiculous level. Older people do tend to worry over these things especially if they can't move as quickly to get out of the way of flood water. Hopefully she has calmed down a little now CLKD. Does she live near March then? http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-cambridgeshire-28721657
Raining here and thunder too. I was expecting my husband to come back from the golf course early but seems as if they must have just sheltered until the last storm went over. Not as windy yet as I thought it might be - the weather that is not me!
Taz x
-
Woke to heavy rain which appears to have passed now - phew.
No wind yet.
-
It's just stopped raining. It started in the early hours.
-
Its stopped raining now, we had a bit of a blow but its died down now, not particularly warm though more like October then August.
-
Started beautiful here, but clouds started building after 10am. Rain started at 5pm. In for a soggy night. Wind not bad, a bit breezy but so far OK. Sure I heard some thunder in the distance earlier, that distinctive rumble, but never came to anything.
-
Started of quite sunny. By 10am it started raining hard. Stopped briefly around five, only to start again with thunder. Now the wind has picked up speed.
Galadriel x
-
Now windy and raining.
-
Poured intermittnetly all day, saw some blue sky but not for long. Good for the garden but not all at once ::)
Had a long chat with Mum this evening and she is calmer. Didn't consider taking her important papers or handbag upstairs, but had a bucket in which she planned to put food 'for a few days' ::). The dyke at the bottom of her garden is half full so some water is running off the land. At least she didn't get water in the house. She's 10 miles from March.
Tonight the rain is hammering against the windows, DH chased a hog along the path just now hopefully there will be plenty of slugs!
-
Pouring - suddenly. Sky blackened, we had to open the lounge curtains and put on a light then the heavens opened. I was stepping outside to search for a cat who hasn't eaten today ……… she has plenty of places to hide but that's the problem :-\ ………. I am hoping that she ate over-night and will want her supper ……..
It's been lovely until now. Warm. Sunny. Nice enough to sit ……..
-
Wet. Summer's gone. :(
-
It's a bit grey here and breezy - almost Autumnal.. at last..
Taz x :lol:

Horrible and cold.
I had my heating on last night and its the middle of August.
Honeyb

This week we've had all types of sunshine, drizzle, heavy showers, thunder; mornings are chilly; forecast is rarely 'right'. Heavy drizzle against the windows now, looks like indoor chores today ::)
-
Cold & windy.
Heating on this morning for a bit.
Enjoyed putting slippers on and feeling snug - does this sound like Taz?
-
Yes - although I don't wear slippers just thick socks!
Taz x ;D
-
Cool wind and dull, does not feel like August
Have a cardi on and wearing boots with Jeans.
Can't remember when I wore Jeans and boots in August :o
-
Not only were there slippers but bamboo socks as well.
Well. it is quite windy here. ;D
-
:rofl:
-
How do you get on with your bamboo socks?
I've had my leeccy blanket on for 3 nights ………
Today has been sunny, ideal for gardening or sitting by the ponds. Cardie to hand though ::) …….. at 1 point it was drizzling but there wasn't a cloud in the sky :-\
-
Bamboo socks are brilliant.
Quite thick and cushioned, today's were quite thin but still very cosy
Chicish in a Dennis the Menace sort of way - red and navy stripes.
The leecy blanket is on for a short time to warm the bed prior to getting in.
-
Brrrr kinda chilly here too. My heating has been coming on in the morning because house is too cold. ;)
-
So's ours - OH even suggested it himself, normally I have to persuade.
-
It's dark by 8.00 p.m. :'(
-
No electric blanket for me....never had one in my life. I like getting into a cold bed ::)
Not dark here until after 9. A few short weeks ago it was light until 11. Seems to be sliding towards autumn very early this year.
Honeyb

-
No I quite like getting into cold bed especially these days!
It's been nice here today - blue skies - bit windy at time but on he he whole ok. It does feel autumnal though and nights definately drawing in :(
Have a good week everyone xxx

I was freezing tonight, had to dig out big cardi to warm up. Think I may need jeans tomorrow as it's to be quite chilly.
-
Sunny! A bit chilly though.
-
Grey, drizzling. blowy
-
Sunny, showers, wind. 11°. Tad chilly for August, even for up here.
-
April showers - have been watching black clouds gathering which whizzed over so put my jeans onto the line to blow: wind dropped completely, followed by a sudden sharp rain storm, seeing the cat run for shelter made me giggle .......... jeans will have to stay out!
Chilly 1st thing. Autumnal (R you listening Taz ;) ) - autumnal ..........

Sunny and breezy. Perfect for drying curtains ;D
Honeyb

-
Are they dry yet? :D
Still black clouds scudding past, no doubt some will stop and rain on my jeans/towels ::)

Not yet. Although they are cotton they are long with a built in lining.. Going to be a b###r to iron.
It really did seem a good idea at the time......Have I already said that ;D
Honeyb

;D ………. a couple of glasses of ………… and you won't notice how long they are ;)
Load of washing in as black clouds gathered, 1 pair of jeans still hanging as the wind has gone …..

Oh that's good. Thought they might end up on Arran as it's rather breezy. ;D

Will cancel the coach to Aran then - I was going to suggest it earlier but the computer locked up: again!
Drizzling hard. Chilly. Autumnal :whist:

Did I not say....I had to pop on the ferry and run up Goatfell to get them back ;D
No wonder I'm tired..
Central heating on....It's really cold.

Dry but dull here in Suffolk. Hope it will be a calm day tomorrow or I'll be hanging over the edge of the boat ::)

Torrential rain this morning.
Sunny and windy this afternoon, not warm only 11°

Leccy blanket will be on again tonight. I woke cold several times ……….
Bright sunshine now, pouring with rain ::)

You've got our rain.
They said it would come south.....
-
Lovely day today. All my washing dried. :)
-
;D Thanks Limpy. Keep it up there for the rest of the week, have a Duty Visit to do and it's gardening chores ::)
Lovely sunset now it's stopped raining. Nearly dark though :'(
-
that sky is BLACK >:( - off to get in the washing :(
-
Miserable and wet has turned into sunny and warm.
-
Same here - that cloud went over without raining - now the sun is warm through the window!
-
we had wispy sun for about an hour, but back to the murk now :(
-
wet early morning, sunny late morning, short cloudburst after lunch now dry and bright and fine. Funny old day :)
-
Chucking it down this morning but this afternoon- sunny and quite,warm.
Was told by my postie this morning that we are having a very warm week next wk.
Just as the schools go back and I'm back at work. ::)
-
how does your postie know? perhaps he is in the wrong job :)
-
He's a weather man on the quiet ;) ;D
-
Does he know about Scotland, will you ask him …….
Sun pouring in through our window :P
-
I'll ask him tomorrow ;D
Are you there next wk?

;D

Dry and warm here. Sunshine all day. Bit of rain tomorrow but dry over the weekend and most of next week.
Good job it's a dry weekend. Try burning a long ship in the rain ;D. It's our Viking Festival this incoming week. Our town is over run with Vikings who live in a village on the sea front for a week ::)

I love these calm early Autumn days and the mellow light, also the bliss of cool nights.
Harvest Festival, then Halloween, then Bonfire night. Well that's what I remember when I went back to school when I was kid.
Perfect :)
-
Glad you stopped that sentence at Bonfire night SL ;D.. No mention of the C word.
Warm here but grey skies.
Honeyb

-
I did definitely stop at Bonfire Night HB ;D
I sat outside this afternoon and the sun was hot, but so quiet, it felt mellow and fruitful :)
-
I can feel mellow and fruitful on occasions.....usually when I have a glass of wine in my hand.
:drunk:
I do know what you mean though. It's a lovely time of year.

Yesterday was overcast but not cold.
This morning the sun is shining over Loch Lomond, birds are singing, water is still - all's right with my World ;)
-
It's still summer until September 21st (approx!) - the date of the autumn equinox :)
I'm disappointed with this so called high pressure sunny spell we are suposed to be having. We had some sunshine on Sunday but since then has been cloudy - thick veil of cloud here for most of the day - I think it's rolled in from the sea (S coast about 8 miles away) :(. It;s clear now but I was hoping for some lovely hot summer sunshine! Maybe tomorrow :)
Hurdity x
-
I am reliably informed the technical expression for high pressure & the clouds is "Blocking High"
Hope that helps ;D
-
Such a beautiful morning here, its warm and still, but there is the golden glow of early autumn days, the leaves are beginning to turn already here.
Thinking of taking some pics to upload now I am back on photobucket, I am due a new contract phone in a few weeks and am going to choose one with a good camera :)
-
It's Blocking High here all right >:(
We saw a bit of sun yesterday and I rushed outside. Windows are wide open today but it's totally covered.
-
On and off sunshine ;)
-
Left St Lucia basking in 32° heat yesterday. Today back home 12°. Brrrrrr

OH is the same CG! Left Yokohama in 36 degrees yesterday and for the first time ever wants the heating on here in September!!
Hope you had a lovely time!

We're sitting here wrapped up like it's mid-winter. ;D Had great time thanks.
when's the hurricane season definitely over? Husband has the last 2 weeks of November off before he starts a new job, and we need somewhere sunny and relaxing as he's exhausted. I suggested South Africa as it's cheap with guaranteed sunshine but he doesn't want to run into family obligations.
We had 'warm sunshine' forecast. Big joke. Grey and very cool rubbish.
-
Hurricanes over at end of November. Thankfully none came when we were out there. We've been to Caribbean 6 times at same time of year & missed hurricanes every time.
Today it's a bit dull, but sun is trying to break through.
-
Just beautiful now the mist has burned off.
Makes the winter seem much shorter if we get a nice autumn.

Ah damn! Our break has to be from mid November. A friend said 'hurricanes' and we thought he was being alarmist, but with our luck........ :o
I saw my neighbour and tried to remember what the exact term is for the totally grey, bleak but warm weather we are having (endlessly) so I said it's called "....High" and she said "no, it's called cr*p" (she's a scientist).
No sign of the sun at all and almost dark already.
-
Been brightish, dry and pleasantly warm, not too hot.
-
Oldsheep check out national hurricane centre & weather underground websites they give historical info on hurricanes. This year has been quiet in the Atlantic due to El Nino. I don't understand these things, but when we were in St Lucia, American channels were saying that most of the activity is in the Pacific this year, which makes for less Atlantic hurricanes. We have been so lucky as August/September is when most happen in Atlantic.
We temporarily got some nice warm weather today, then it got rather chilly. Still dry though.
-
Beautiful in NE Scotland, warm sunny , hint of Autumn,
-
The last week here has been lovely. Long may it continue. Central Scotland.
-
Lovely warm sunshine with a gentle breeze here in South East wales xx
-
Hazy sunshine, but not too bad really.

Lovely late hot summer sun for most of the week. Been back in vests and shorts...

But yes Winterose - hints of autumn in the evenings as the nights draw in - 9 days to go...

Bit strange. Quite grey, not much sun or wind, but load of towels got totally dry outside today.
Not complaining.
It's been feeling cool in the mornings mind.
-
Mist and grey start, :sunny: out by 10.30 all day.
-
We picked the 'right' week for our trip North! this morning it's chucking down heavy drizzle. It isn't cold in fact it's muggy - apparently by Wed. it's going to 'be' 25 :o
-
Been miserable all day! :(
-
It brightened up by 2.30 so I w as able to have a cuppa whilst feeding the pond fish. Now clouding up again and small personal weather station shows rain …..

It's beautiful here but has been for the last couple of weeks - warm and sunny. That wonderful autumn sunshine dappling down through the trees with a slight misty feel in the mornings. Can hardly contain myself!!

Must be time for my mum's poem again....
Blackberry Time
September when the level fields
Lay golden in the sun
When frantic growing days are past
And harvest's all but done
When cottage gardens glow with light
Their borders jewelled fires
When swallows, softly murmurous, mass
Along convenient wires
When lighted windows early shine
As nights draw gently in
When bonfires flicker, ruby bright
Air shivers on the skin
When morning cobwebs misted shine
With pearl and silver bands
When Winter waits behind the hedge
And rubs his chilly hands.

-
Lovely. Are you behind the hedge too Taz? ;)
-
That's lovely Taz.
Take it the approach of Autumn is making you happy?
-
Yes - Autumn and Winter are my favourite times. I feel so much more alive than in the Spring and Summer. I've always been the same.
CG - yes I'm behind the hedge.. waiting...

-
Heavy mist until mid-morning. Not cold. Sun trying to get through. Washing - on the line maybe ::)
-
Overcast, but at least its dry.
-
Washing out
DH is washing/drying/polishing car/camper
Muttering becasuse with the sun shining he can't see where's he has missed :D
-
Lovely poem Taz. But I hate winter. I have to have sunshine or I don't feel well. Don't need great heat, but do need sunshine.
It was really foggy this morning until about 11, then a lovely autumn sunny day.
-
Indian Summer :-*
-
I wish, rain is forecast for us over coming days. Yippee!
-
Bright and sunny. 21 degrees is forecast, and tomorrow! Washing is out and more is in the machine. :). I'm easily pleased.
-
20 in our car. Glorious :-*
-
Blooming miserable here. Dull & dank as promised.
-
The weather has been almost hot all this week, and very warm at night almost like high summer.
Its so still its almost eerie, the leaves are turning gold and red around here and the nights are drawing in, but the temperatures are so high, very strange.
-
Warm during the day with no rain, cool at night.
Farmers are saying it's too dry..........
-
Just as miserable today as yesterday. :(
-
Hot and sunny again. I can't believe it.
-
Send some our way littleminnie. Fed up looking at fog & drizzle.
-
Needs to be clear to get the votes in from the islands.
Oh heck I am becoming obsessed ::)

I am in bed on my kindle, the Windows are wide open and its still hot, I want it to be cold at night time now not like this :o
-
Thunder and lightning
Taz x :(
-
That's what it feels like here Tax so heavy and humid but no sign of rain, we need a good storm to clear the air, cool, it down and get back to fresh September weather ;) :)
-
Beautiful here today. Visited national trust property, where it was sunny with a lovely breeze. :) (http://:))
-
Have wakened to same dreich weather. :(
-
23 degrees already here with high humidity, woke up with headache on sides of nose and forehead, probably from the grass cutting yesterday and the piriton I took.
Not had any rain to speak of for weeks so we do need it, we are suppose to have lots of rain in the N.W ::)
Having said all that it is a glorious day out there :)
-
Dull. Muggy.
-
Dull and grey.
Honeyb

-
Started off dull and murky.
Now, sunny and opaque.
No wind at all, good job I'd not done any washing today. ::)
We'll live.
-
They promised us sunshine, they lied! Still dreich!
-
They lied here too.
It was supposed to be rainy with thunder today.
Am I complaining - er - no.
Mind you, it could all happen later I suppose.
-
Raining today
-
Rained during the night. Dull now. >:(
-
:sunny: :sunny: :sunny: and a few clouds, but after last few days I'm not complaining.
-
Overcast but very warm here.
-
Dark & cloudy - tiny bit of drizzle this morning.
-
Yesterday was dull until the sun came out mid-afternoon when it was warm. Today has been dull; drizzle; dull ……. ::)
-
The autumn equinox is upon us but the sun shone hotter than ever today
Hurdity :sunny:
-
Lovely today - Sunny and Bright - Pleasant but not too warm.
-
Beautiful warm and sunny.
Dark tonight about 7:30 and at night it smells of autumn.
Think it's due to rain later this week.
Honeyb

-
Ditto HB's and Limpy's !
-
Lovely sunshine today but a bit nippy.
Can feel the Autumn air.
-
Apparently there was a frost in Bakewell. Here it's lovely - bright sunshine in a blue sky :-*
-
Quite mild, hazy sunshine.
-
Lovely day. Warm sunshine and blue skies.
Long may it last......Well at least until tomorrow as we need to get the window open to paint it. ;D
Honeyb

-
Some of the washing dried :-* ……… next load (3rd) is whizzing round ……….
-
Dry, warmish, sunnyish.
I can cope.
-
Sunny but a nip in the air. Supposed to be raining later.
-
Grey but still and warmish his morning.
Come 4pm - Windy, raining coolish. Heating on, OH not me, honest.
Bit of a change.
-
Good luck with the window honeybun
My husband has spent the last two weeks mending and painting the windows and window sills in our cottage - they rot in the winter and need re-painting frequently, and there are lots of them because they are small panes and windows!
Cooler last night (lovely) but still pleasant warm sunshine - but definitely beginning to feel a little bit autumnal.... I wonder when it's going to rain? We've only had a morning of rain (Friday) and I think that was pretty much it for September!
Hurdity x
-
Raining here tonight for the first time in weeks.
The ground is so dry I'm sure I can hear the plants in the garden sighing with relief ;D
Honeyb

-
Yes - Along with the moss on the drive and what passes for lawn...... ::)
-
Cool first thing. :sunny: ....... views across the countryside have been lovely. Clear sky this evening.
-
Been ok today, not much sun. Got washing dried though, so tumble dryer happy. ;D
-
Rained overnight and the sky is full of BLACK clouds which so far has whizzed over ..........
Not cold until the wind blows
-
Been raining on and off all day but sunny now
-
Bright sunshine once the black clouds blew away. Blustery so washing dried quickly :-*
-
Some watery sunshine, some showers & a bit chilly.
-
Bit like CG but without the showers but definitely had the chilly bit here.
-
Fetched in a dry sheet 10 mins ago, the sky is clear but it isn't cold. Star gazing anyone?
-
Hurray its starting to feel like Autumn at last :)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UxonAomPzqY
-
Quite nippy here first thing, but it's warming up slowly. Tomorrow to be bleugh, so washing machine is working overtime today. :)
-
Dull till 12.45 when the sun broke through. Lovely now. Calm. Blue sky. Light white clouds. Making the best of it!
-
Lovely sunshine at the moment but getting really windy. Been clearing away garden knick nacks that might get blown away as a storm is forecast for tonight and tomorrow.
I think it's goodbye summer and hello autumn starting tonight.
Honeyb

-
in like a lamb and out like a lion then Honeybun …….. I have a few ceramic statues to find homes for, bought during the Summer they won't stand being frosted.
-
My garden seems to fill up with stuff over the summer. Things I find on the beach, painted slates, a lantern, ceramic stuff that the kids painted years ago. A very very small rowing boat, shells,driftwood. Hubby despairs ;D. He keeps getting rid of stuff and I keep getting more.
Honeyb
x
-
;D ………. I have plastic ducks all round the pond or hiding in the undergrowth and 2 ducklings on the water. The rest is ceramic so I don't make it easy for myself ::) ………. the 2 naked boys with urns stay out and I expect the naked lady on her knees will be OK unless it gets very very cold ………
-
Weather storm force here on North Uist. Ferries cancelled and very hard to get into the car with the wind! Waves crashing on the rocks- I love it!
-
Lovely, sunny and warm this morning but dull,cloudy and a little wet now.
-
It's heading my way Machair. I went to school with a girl whose family came from North Uist.
I have never been that far north......yet.

We are just coming to the end of a lovely week in a cottage in North Yorkshire, the weather has been wonderful every day. We brought coats and waterproofs but haven't worn any of them. Today its sunny and windy with a slight chill in the air but the autumn colours are beautiful. I suspect it will be all change tomorrow and the rain and gales will follow us south as we go home down to Worcestershire

I've put my garden ornaments away for winter. Wind is increasing, so glad I've done that. Hopefully my ornamental lights will survive. They have up until now, they're very low set so should be OK. Watering can is full of water so it should stay in place too.
-
Beautiful sunny day - started off a bit chilly though.
Bit of wind got up now.
Forecast for Saturday is horrible.
-
Cold first thing and just starting to get cold again now but beautiful this afternoon - warm and sunny. Looks like the wind is due to pick up here from Friday and we really get strong winds where we are as we are high up. We have become very lax over the last few months with leaving stuff around outside so a bit of a tidy up is due.
-
Been in cyprus for nearly a week, its now 10pm and sittn in garden wearing my pjs having a glass of wine.
Steady 29degrees all week just love it.
-
Horribly windy this morning - lessened now.
Just waiting for the 30-40 mm of rain predicted for early tomorrow morning.
-
Just after midnight & I'm listening to the pouring rain.
-
We had heavy rain from 7am this morning, sun's out now though, at 1.50pm, We have the Kiddies carnival procession through the town at 3pm, and main carnival at 7pm. Hope the rain stays away, so many people turn out to watch, and so much money put into doing the floats they need people to put coins in the collectors buckets. :)
-
Still raining here. Son's GF's sister was graduating this morning. Shame it was lousy weather for her, although I'm sure she will enjoy the celebrations despite the rain.
-
Extreme, torrential rain this morning at 4am.
OH went out to check gutters were coping, they weren't.
Rain was approaching back door, he came in for wellies and waterproofs, by the time he went out again the water was at the back door lapping at the door jam.
He went onto flat roof cleared some rubbish from gutters then came down to clear grids.
Eventually all sorted but water was very closed to getting in the house.
Sunny, dry and still now.
-
Heavy rain overnight - the garden needed it. Dry and sunny now.
Bramble
-
Getting pretty wild out there & to get worse overnight into tomorrow. I've been out securing stuff in the hope they won't blow away. First October storm. Yippee! Not!
-
Heavy rain on Sunday morning. Bright sunshine by mid-afternoon and this continued today although the air is very cold.
-
Beautiful all day here. Sunny and warm....ish but turned chilly about 4.
-
Sneaky drizzle all day, wasn't forecast, didn't help much in getting washing dry
Strong winds forecast for early tomorrow morning.
What joy.
-
Autumnal sunshine all day today - nice and chilly now though.
Taz x ;D
-
Very wet and windy. Been like this for hours.
-
Very windy, rain just starting.
-
Strong winds and torrential rain last night, Brought my lovely sunflowers crashing down, destroying everything that was under where they fell. >:( Ripped the (locked) lid off the oil tank. Will check with my husband when he gets back later but I think the fact that it is a 'double skinned' tank at least means no rain will have got into the oil.
I do love autumn really but wish the storms weren't quite so violent!
-
Skye Bridge closed again :( .......... here it's raining hard, probably been raining all night .......... good for the garden ;)
Crikey! the wind can't get to our oil tank lid. Maybe it was thieves taking advantage of the weather? ........... double skinned means that the outer covering is 'double' to avoid 'accidents' i.e. piercing through to allow oil to leak .......... but the inlet is quite narrow so hopefully not too much rain will have got in. You'll see if you look - I think oil is lighter than water so you may find your boiler will protest as it will be drawing water which will have sunk to the bottom of the tank ......... best not switch on until you've spoken to your service person. (pour oil on troubled waters ;-) ).
-
High wind and rain, back garden wrecked, even heavy plant pots blown over.
Having said that had a great sleep ( slept for ten hours :o) it was cold last night and I changed my summer duvet to the winter one, and felt so cosy.
I like Summer but love Autumn and winter now.
-
Winds increasing, torrential rain. Garden still in one piece.
-
Dull,dreary,wet :(

Strong winds with torrential rain this morning.
Sunny and mildly breezy this afternoon.

Rain pouring through my letterbox!

CG - Just looked on rain radar - Looks like you're getting what we had this morning, oh, and Saturday morning too.
Get the mops and towels handy. Hope it passes for you soon.
-
Brighter for the last hour.
-
It's eased off now thankfully. Carpet still sopping wet though. :(
-
Bright and dry today.
Last night we had thunder & lightening - bit of a surprise as it wasn't forecast. However, not only did the phone line and broadband survive, the line speed went up to 1216kbs - Result!
-
Gorgeous earlier, so hung out washing. Now looks like rain. Chilly too.
-
Come off it - this is the South of France - IT SHOULDN'T BE RAINING..... but it is
Meggie

Supposed to be clear here with sunshine. Eh nope. Someone should look at their window. It's grey, grey, grey.
-
Very windy yesterday, didn't dare put the camper roof up in case ……… torrential when it did rain. Lovely when the sun shone.
2-day there is a Very Black Cloud manoeuvring itself around the sky >:( hovering over my washing
-
Thunderstorms here now
-
Better today - blue skies :-*
-
Been a bit dull, a bit sunny. Dry but useless for drying my washing.
-
Cloudless blue sky, sunny, very little wind.
Pretty but no use for drying washing.

Its like that here too CG :)

Sorry CG, beautiful here again today. Hubby just finished cutting the grass. Cold wind though.

A glimmer of hope on the horizon. Patches of blue sky, though not holding my breath. Sun stuck behind clouds.
I'm needing to cut back my hydrange again. It is covered in dead flower heads & is sprawling too far. Can't be bothered. Maybe tomorrow..........
-
Better today. Not cold even. Black clouds but they went behind the Downs away from the coast ;)
-
It's been 29° here today - Phew
Had to shelter under the parasol on the terrace, so warm - amazing October
Even had to put on the air-con as it was 24° inside
Meggie
-
That would be too hot for me ……. pity you don't have any viewings on the property this week ;)
-
Grey, murky.
Forecast to rain this afternoon.
-
Showery.
-
Well it was a wild and wonderful sunny blustery autumn day this morning but just the past couple of hours has clouded over and was just feeling fed up that it was already starting getting dark at 4.30 when I had a sudden happy thought - only 7 weeks to the winter solstice and the days start to lengthen again :), so just had to post!!!
Hurdity x
-
Really wild here now. Strong blustery winds and torrential rain (enough o cause patches of flooding on the roads). Dog really not impressed when I walked him earlier!
-
Very strong winds & torrential rain.
Summer has definitely finished here.
Joy unlimited..................

Warm. Lovely sunshine. Blue skies ……… darkness arrives early though :-\

Horrid this morning, but sun has come out to play. Freezing though. Dug out my winter jacket today.

Chillier. Blue Sky. Sunshine.

First snow of the autumn on the hills opposite to us this morning
-
Wet & cold.
-
I LOVE snow - on the tops of the Pyrenees ;)
1st frost today!
-
much colder just took the dog out feels like maybe a frost tonight. Curtains already drawn, lights and heating on now.
-
Proper cold today - ice on the car! :) Then lovely sunshine and icy torrents of rain.
Snow!!! I would love to see some! We rarely get it here in the SW.
Wore a coat today - have hardly done so recently.
Hurdity x
-
The snow did look good - luckily it's about 5 to 6 miles away.
-
When we visited Beachy Head a few weeks back they showed us photos of snow! right on the headland :o

Sunny but chilly

Above the sea though ::)
-
Gosh - I would have thought the sea would have had a "tempering maritime effect"
Must have been chill.....
-
We were told of 6ft+ snow drifts in Jan 2013 when we were in Jersey last summer. Snow was right down to the beaches apparently.
-
Bloomin' cold - nothing like France but got to get used to it
Meggie
-
Freezing! Maybe it's because weather was milder until not so long ago, but I'm really feeling the cold. Got my big woolly pully on & wrapped in a blanket. Mind you having the start of a cold isn't helping.
-
Lovely warm sunshine by the sea today on S coast seaside town having lunch with an old friend :sunny:
Hurdity x

I'm cold. Adding more layers as the day goes on. Fire lit. Rads will go on soon so that the bathroom heats up.

Rads will go on soon so that the bathroom heats up.
Is that the first time this year?
Ours have been on for a couple of hours each day during the past month........
-
The boiler went wrong a few weeks ago - after middle of Oct. so we have been using the coal fire. Fixed last Tuesday. We put the fire on about 3.30 then the boiler around 7.00 to heat the bathroom/water for a bath. Then we can turn off the boiler - it's 70F in here now PHEW!
-
OH has reported ominous noises from the boiler - luckily it's still working.
It'll wait until the roads get icy before it conks out fully.
That's what happened last time.
-
Boilers never seem to pack in during the summer, do they? They wait until its brass monkeys & think, nope not switching on today. Result, you waken to freezing rooms & ice cold water. Wasn't that how it used to be when we were little? Certainly was in my house. Coal fires, which took until the afternoon to heat a room. Immersion for hot water, but only once a day. We're spoiled these days.
-
You're right CG, we are spoiled these days, long may it continue ;D
-
Wild and windy....
Hurdity x
-
Wild windy and horrible. The sea is rough today with huge waves.
You are right we are spoiled these days. We used to waken up to frosty windows in our first flat.....on the inside ;D

I love wild seas! I went to the sea yesterday (20 mins from here) and it was flat calm - what a contrast it would be today!
Hurdity x
-
Wet & wild today.
First house we lived in here, was a tied house, due to hubby's job. We had inch thick ice at the bottom of the windows. We ran a calor gas heater in hallway & an electric bar radiator in the living room. Never been so cold. Daughter was barely a year old & was always I'll in that house. Two years later we bought our own place with central heating. Bliss!
-
Wet & windy at the coast - Mostly just wet here. Mind you the wind is getting a bit more active.
It's dark outside as I type - it's only 4.12pm :o
-
I remember scraping through the ice to see what the weather had done in the night ::) - each room had a fireplace but upstairs were only lit if someone was very very ill. Dad got up first, lit the fires so that it was warm for Mum to come down to.
Sharp frost - then it clouded over ::)
-
Windy, wet and dull :(
-
Bleugh!
-
Wet and Gray - going to get Really wet in a couple of hours, joy unbounded

Thunder! Otherwise, wet and mild - yuck.

In West Mid's it was lovely 8am-9.30am..then went dark, started raining, now we have high winds as well, but its not so cold as last 3 days have been..x

Buffalo, New York - some areas had snow dumped on - air views show the blanket as it hovered over the city. Some parts only got a smattering, others have 4-5' and another 5' expected :o
-
Used to be we got US snow two weeks later, but hasn't happened so much in recent years. Hope it stays that way.
-
3rd day of snow this week! Blooming cold too
-
Suzyq snow is lovely to look at when you're indoors. Horrid when you have to go about your normal life.
Today is dull, dull, dull.
-
Dull until mid-morning - now cold sunshine
Can tell it's going to be colder, the birds are really busy on the feeders ……..
-
Lovely sunny day - bit chill though
-
A frost yesterday followed by sunshine and this morning, after it melted the day became dull, dull, dull :P …….. damp and chilly.
Any1 wake to a nice view this morning?
-
Been miserable all day. :(
-
You or the weather? :-\
-
Awoke to clouds and rain - would have loved the frost and sunshine of yesterday. It's poured and been grey all day and the light levels have barely reached daylight. Drove to my work commitment through muddy lanes turning to rivers, and overflowing fords.
No wonder people suffer from SAD and Vit D deficiency if we get much of this! I did make sure I sat in our front porch for 15 mins in the warm sunshine on my face and arms yesterday just to increase my Vit D naturally :)
Hurdity x
-
we said to each other mid-afternoon that we hope the damp weather won't stay until March :-\ …… for 1 thing, there's laundry everywhere ::) ……… no point hanging it outdoors!
-
Weather miserable CLKD. I'm fine & dandy. ::)
-
Phew ;D
-
Tomorrow's weather, bleugh too. As for me, time will tell. ;D
Thought we were going to get some nice crisp mornings, but no. So many bugs about. Need good spell of frosty weather.

I hung mine out yesterday :)
Hurdity x
-
Snow anyone? Apparently it's forecast :o
-
Nope. Mountain tops only.
-
Keep it there then ;D …… or on cards ;)
The air is raw ……. it's been dull all day!

It can stay there all winter, where it belongs.
Frosty start today, then got a bit milder & cloudier. Now it's cold again.

Cold - 'tis almost winter..... the solstice beckons

It's a year since the big storms that took out houses in Norfolk ……. and destroyed part of the Aberystwyth Prom. :o ………

Pretty then - pretty awful ::)

Definitely not nice.
Hope it holds off in the morning because the castle and country park next door to us is holding the annual Xmas craft and food fair. I really want to go but not in the pouring rain/sleet/snow.

Very cold here, but only white stuff is the frost. 8)

Woke [eventually] to bright sunshine and a Very Hard Frost. As forecast. Now the sun is pouring in through the window. The forecast was better for you 'up there' Honeybun! obviously 'they' didn't look out of the correct window!

I don't think they looked out of the window at all CLKD, either that or it was dark.

Wrong window here too. Twas dull & damp. Now tis cold & damp! ::)

Oh THAT moon :-* … it's worth donning hat, coat, gloves to have a good look!

Bitterly cold outdoors now.

It's very windy here this morning. Coming in from the west which means big waves and potential flooding. Not great to drive in but great to look at....from a distance ;D

Windy with rain - again
-
Frrrreeeeeeezzzzzzing. Wind would cut you in half!
-
Cold but dreading tomorrow. Central heating is playing up so have the have the system flushed to get rid of gunk and scale deposits. Just know something will go wrong and we will end up with no heating. Costing £600 plus as well. Double head ache!!!!!
-
Oh ouch! Thank goodness for my central heating contract!
-
Heater-hugging!
-
Nearly got swept off my feet trying to put washing in tumble dryer. Gusts are horrendous. Tiles rattling. Staying inside rest of the day.
-
bright but cold day here in London. Heating is on - I tried a while with it off and my feet froze. I prefer this to the grey, rainy rubbish though.
Rosebud - hope the powerflush goes off ok and the heating should run better afterwards!
-
Cloudy with a bitter wind, icy blasts forecasted tonight.
-
Where on Earth is your tumble dryer ;D
Sharp frost. Now dull, dull, dull with a cold wind.
-
80 mile an hour winds for us tonight and tomorrow. It's pretty bad already. Just hope our roof tiles stay in place and our trees upright. This is the kind of weather that knocks out our power :-\

Candles at the ready, hot water bottle into the bed now to warm up the space for later ;)

Weather bomb hitting your neck of the woods HB. Pretty scary stuff. Stay safe!

Not great travelling conditions.

Horribly windy - Supposed to get worse tomorrow night :-\
Worried about the house staying in one piece.........

Hope all remains in one piece Limpy. I think you may miss this "weather bomb" that's headed our way.....whatever that may be. I did read about it and all I could think was....CALL IT A STORM ;D
Honeyb

;D ;D ;D
Crazy names these days. Just a big storm, no more than we're used to up here. Wind seems to have calmed a bit here, but think it's to be bad again tomorrow.
-
Hope all remains in one piece Limpy. I think you may miss this "weather bomb" that's headed our way.....whatever that may be. I did read about it and all I could think was....CALL IT A STORM ;D
Thanks Honeyb
Think you're right about you getting it worse than us - Good Luck when it hits (whatever it is)
As it happens the wind has already caused some damage.
We had some new front gates fitted a couple of years ago, they are a bit tricky to close properly. Which is what happened today when the meter reader came. Gates weren't shut, left blowing in the wind damaging the wood and destroying the latch. All fixed now but could have done without it.
-
Sorry about your gates Limpy. We have secured all that we can. We are at the top of a hill so it blasts us. I think we fair better here because we have some islands in the bay and that slows things down a little bit.
All the ferries are cancelled.
When my kids were at big school kids from our nearest island came over every day. If the weather was bad and the ferries were going to stop running the ferry company notified the school. A special bell rang in the school and all island children left the class and got the last ferry. My son who was about 13 at the time decided along with a couple of pals to try their luck and leave class hoping the teacher would not know that they were not island children. They got as far as the bus before they were discovered. I got a call from school to tell me all about it. The teachers thought it was hilarious. What they would have done when they ended up on the island heaven only knows. We still tease him about it to this day. ;D

My brother says they are getting hit with worst rain they've ever encountered down the west coast. Must be bad if he's posting on FB!
-
It's been grey but mild and dry here today although ice on the car this morning. Still seeing people without coats! Just beginning to get a few occasional gusts - I think it may move south tomorrow according to my husband.
Sounds dreadful so do stay safe all of you up in Scotland and the North....

Yep, took my son three hours from Edinburgh. Should have taken two and my daughter two hours from Glasgow should have taken one. Never seen rain like it. It's all gone very quiet now. The calm before the rest of the storm.

-
Very calm here too, eerily so! Blizzards forecast for here tomorrow. Yippee! Not!
-
I'm listening to rain starting to batter against the window now. Windy too - but Edinburgh's the "windy city" anyway. Been talking with my Dad, who's quite sensibly thinking about staying at home tomorrow. Take care, anyone who's got to travel.
-
Blustery now. But 9 in the car at 6.00 p.m., it's now 11 ::) - no wonder I have crocus up!
-
Can't be as windy as Aberdeen Dulciana. Hardly a day goes by here without wind of some description. (http://www.smiley-lol.com/smiley/saisons/automne/tempete.gif)
-
:-X ;D ……… is that outdoors we're talking about here ;)
Did the kiddlies arrive OK Honeybun? Curry eaten? DH uses breasts when making curry …….
-
Yep, some days more than others. Seldom have fully calm days.
-
Breezy, but dry so far.
-
Awful, the wind sounds like an express train and the thunder is so loud.
Hope it calms down soon.
Honeyb

-
Hope so too Honeybun. The pictures of the waves on the news look really scary!
Taz x
-
Think most of the pictures are from just down the coast. Going to have a wee look later although I think the worst of it is over now.
It's much calmer.
Honeyb

Wasn't too bad overnight - actually got a good nights sleep.
However, wind really getting up now - combined with a temperature of 3° - pleasant it ain't.
-
Woke up at 3.00am due to wind howling across the chimney, making wooooo noises! ::)
Now it is sunny 8), rainy and windy all at the same time ;D

-
At this precise moment, it's absolutely disgusting!! Can't remember what :sunny: feels like...........
-
We are missing the worst of it in the north east. Odd rain shower rattling through & quite breezy. Nothing unusual for us.
-
Wet, dark and windy! Hope my xmas tree is ok!
Bramble
-
I did wonder if my out-door decs would fly off the trees in the night ;D but they seem to have hung on!
Dry cold today.
-
Getting windier :o
-
Seems to be a common theme on here at the moment …….. ;)
-
Well I thought it was passing over this morning...ummm wrong.
It continues to blow and we have thunder off and on. Really odd though, one flash of lightening and one enormous crack of thunder and then it clears.
Hubby and I went wave watching at high tide. WOW, I have lived on this coast all my life and I have never ever seen anything like it. The waves must have been 30 foot high in places. We had to park well away and just gaze in amazement. Brilliant but very scary.
Honeyb

-
Stimulating! we miss the coast SO much :-\ would be blustery in our camper!
-
Brilliant sunshine all day here! I thought the waves would be spectacular honeybun!
Taz x
-
Oh they were. We tried to take some photos but apart from getting blown off our feet the camera and the phone were covered in salt in seconds.
My windows are a real mess :o
Honeyb

-
Just seen some pictures of Braemar, which is about 60 miles from us. Beautiful winter wonderland. Here it's just plain dull!
-
❄️❄️❄️☀️☀️☀️
-
Oh there's clever ……….. I don't have snowflakes.
Very sharp frost earlier. We were up early enough to see it, either that of it lasted a long while ;D followed by bright blue sky, dry, sun pouring through the lounge window. :-* Fire lit.
Have you seen the havoc in California :o ………..
-
Read about it earlier, glad I'm not there.
-
Made the News headlines :o ……… luckily no one was buried when the mountain above 'let go' and moved the road way against the houses …….
-
We had heavy rain last night, then it froze. Woke to sprinkling of snow on top. Great to look at but blooming treacherous underfoot.

-
:o ………. bet your local A&E was busy then :-\
-
I expect so.
-
Thought we had snow in Devon just now, til I realised the cat had attacked a box of fire-lighters !
-
;D
Oh dear.
-
Frost this morning.
Sunny and cold for the rest of the day.
-
:rofl: …….. [so long as the cat didn't eat any] …
Freezing hard!
-
Bit milder tonight.
-
Meteror showers all night apparently - did ask Himself if he planned to set his alarm for 2.00 -ish. ;)
-
And his answer was ..... ;D
Damp and cold here....horrible really.
Honeyb

-
Grey, damp, drizzling and chilly.
Not wonderful - off to do something with the slow cooker - it's that sort of day.
-
My thoughts too Limpy, off to get some chicken thighs more tasty then breast.
Dull grey and raining, not a glimpse of meteor shower last night.
-
Dull, grey & trying hard to rain.
Too cloudy here to see meteor shower last night.
-
Change of plan OH decided he wanted Chinese from Sainsbury's.
Even more dark, gloomy and rain.
-
Cold windy and wet. My little car was getting blown all over the place on the shore road this morning.
Central heating on and feet up. Slow cooked duck legs for us tonight. That will warm us up.
Honeyb

-
Slow cookers on all over then - we have a brace of pheasants in ours, with ginger/garlic, large glass of sherry, with pulled carrots from the garden, spuds from the Fens and will open a tin of peas
Wind got up really cold. DH didn't set the alarm but was in and out of bed until mid-night - he did see some flying over …….. I kept well snuggled down ;)
-
Now raining, wet and windy.What joy.
The slow cooker has been cooking diced beef, fennel, celery, carrots, onions, potatoes, stock & tiny amount of red wine. Hope its worked....... ???
-
Home grown fennel?
Dark now. Feet are cold tonight.
-
☔️☔️☔️
-
Chilly.
-
Home grown fennel?
Er no - I've heard tell of such things though......... ;)
-
;D …… we have it in our garden, grows really tall and is bronze - but never think to dig any for cooking with. Supposedly getting warmer as the week rolls by :(
-
If we had some (fennel) sure OH would want to use it - he went ape when I purchased some Rosemary in my online grocery shop, pointing out there was some in the garden! Fair do's - he is happy to go outside and pick it.
Weather was supposed to be dry today - it has p--- down ALL day.
Guess who had washing to dry today - had to go in the car port. Car was relegated to outside ;D
-
I do miss my indoor line - in the garage. Now that I have the camper I am unable to use that line ::)
Dark now. Supposed to be getting warmer.
-
It is BLUSTERY++ - wind is howling round the house. Mild though :-\
-
Very windy and raining.
At the moment it's mild but the wind makes it feel colder than it is.
-
gusts of wind nearly knocked me off my bike. Dreary, drizzly, warm day. Much prefer colder and blue sky.
-
….. on your bike :o I haven't ridden mine for a year :-X Must Try Harder :(
-
Miserable, damp grey, more grey, rain, heavier rain and misty. Oh and did I mention grey :-\
Honeyb

-
Matches your mood then Honeybun :( ………..
-
Probably CLKD :o
Honeyb

-
Dry. Less windy. Lovely sunset = cold night!
-
Did I mention grey...Oh and hailstones and torrential showers. Oh and grey ::)
Honeyb

-
Still raining and colder - 5° when we got back this afternoon.
And it's STILL windy - gets quite wearing wondering what's going to fall off the house.
-
Mild here in Wiltshire and lovely blue sky a lots of sun , cheers you up especially in December!
-
Today was sunny, coolish and blustery and I couldn't let the day pass without celebrating the winter solstice, the start of winter and the sign that days once more become longer! Fills me full of optimism :)
As befitting this ancient winter festival, I cut more greenery and brought holly and ivy into the house - as the ancient peoples of this country who celebrated Yule would have done!

Wind got colder as the day went by ….

Mist and rain, grey and cold. Just more of the same old same old.
Honeyb

rain is forecast :-\
-
For once it was warmer here than at daughter's in England. Doubt that will last though. ;)
-
Blustery all night ………. in great howling waves of wind :o
Milder though - but the wind turned icy yesterday afternoon
-
Chilly today, odd glimpses of sunshine.
-
A bit breezy, but very mild at over 13 degrees C at the moment, and grey.
-
Very windy with rain, not too cold 10°C but feels worse in the wind
-
Flooding everywhere. Daughter had adventures getting to Glasgow and we could not get to where we wanted to go either. People being rescued by boat in the east of the county and that's where we were going. :o
Never seen anything like it.
Honeyb

Oh and its still raining.
-
Oh no Honey B. Hope it gets no worse - that's all you need :-\
x
-
Snow melt Honeybun? It was forecast on the weather forecasts yesterday. Grey here, lights will be on earlier than ever despite the shortest day having been and gone ..
-
No it's not snow CLKD. That's much further north than we are. It's just the amount of rain we have had combined with a high tide.
The rivers are full and the ground saturated.
We are up a hill so it's fine for us but we drove past a house that was just surrounded by water and men frantically trying to pump water out. Not the way you want to spend Xmas. Poor souls.
Honeyb

-
Honeyb - That puts everything into perspective.
I'll stop whining about the wind.......
-
I felt so sorry for them Limpy. They were totally cut off and just surrounded by water.
Honeyb

-
It happened in Somerset 12 months ago :'( ………..
-
The sad thing it keeps on happening.
Doesn't help those whose houses are wrecked though.......
-
Nope. But the powers that be insist on building on the flood plains down here :cuss: …… and water will find it's own level! I saw a bit of film for the 1st time this week and it showed a flood of water rushing down a street towards a terrace of new builds ……. probably forced it's way straight into their properties :-\ …….
-
Is anyone surprised, that this being winter, that temperatures are to fall below zero? No. So why are all the TV channels getting their knickers in a twist? Scandinavian countries must be in stitches at our annual winter antics regarding any form of the white stuff on the ground.
-
;D I agree. It's Winter, live with it ::) - lovely blue sky this morning, very sharp frost and pavements are icy. Have broken the birds' water and refreshed the bowls, thrown out grain - have to buy peanuts later ……… hopefully this cold snap will kill some of the bugs :-X
-
Icy but can't complain - it was forecast
-
Lovely blue skies but so cold. We went to Alaska earlier this year and temperature wise it was so much colder there but for some reason it feels colder here :)
-
Depends wether it's a dry cold or damp like we get in the UK - mainland Europe is usually a dry cold ….
-
Clear & frosty, but quite pleasant.
-
Blue skies :sunny: and a lot of frost. Very very cold. I much prefer this kind of weather but a lot of the elderly population then struggle to heat their homes.
Honeyb

-
Lovely blue sky, sunny and cold.
Ice melted by 11am.
-
Birds' water has been replenished twice and is still freezing over despite being in the sun
-
Lovely day here. About 2 degrees, blue skies and sunshine. Went swimming outdoors in the heated pool - couldn't see who was sharing your lane as so much steam!
Much prefer this weather to the gloom and rain, although it's icier obviously
-
Barely got above 0 here today, but lots of crisp sunshine.
-
Frost, on what passes for a lawn, all day - didn't go, even in the sun
-
Still freezing down here in the south west - the puddle in our drive hasn't melted for two days! Felt really sorry for the birds earlier, so have treated them to our dry, left over mince pies .... just don't tell the MIL who made them ;)
-
The trees are beautifully white with frost and I can enjoy the view now we have heat. :)

That's a good idea, I have left over mince pies as well :)
-
Water is important for birds. It's a sharp, bright morning - thawing now …….. lovely walking in the fresh air.
-
Down here in Notts swans are ice skating on the canal. :)
-
:o ………… Bambi like then?
Sun dropping down now. Big thaw all day ……… however?
-
They looked quite scared actually. One man was trying to poke holes through the ice to break it up for them. Have to say ducks coped with it better, even though they looked like drunk men. :)
-
In the Deep Freeze of '63 [19 not 18 ;)] we fed a swan which was frozen into the ice ……… it was under a street lamp so the body had some warmth, we took it bread and warm water. Have no idea what happened to her though :'(. No one considered phoning the RSPCA or anyone, now of course, the Wetlands Trust could help.
This morning - another very sharp frost, wild birds fed, watered, shopping done, lunch eaten …..
-
Grey and windy forecast to rain later.
Not cold- it was 8° at around 11
-
After a very bright start it is dull. All ice gone. Birds busy in the garden. Dreary now, glad I'm not going outdoors for NYE ;)
-
Bright and sunny today with lots of frost.
Not so cold I didn't think when out walking.
Dark now ;D
-
Windy and raining....so what's new for here ;D
Honeyb

-
Windy and rainy here too - that sort of drizzle/mizzle stuff though so not too bad.
Taz x

Warm and drizzly here with a slight wind.

Blowing hard and pouring. Wakened to the rain battering off the bedroom window.
Honeyb

The wind has picked up and its poring with rain, glad really as last night after midnight I looked out of my window and the air was thick with smoke from the fireworks that started early evening here ::) at least it has got rid of the smoke.
I had to close my bedroom window as the smoke was getting on my chest so woke up with a headache.
Can't imagine the pollution from the London display, fifteen tons of fireworks costing £1.8million , what a waste of money and the resources cleaning up afterwards plus the emergency services coping with the drunks.
-
I suggest dunking drunks into the Thames ;) :-X
10 degrees :( ........ blustery. Grey Sky ........
-
Heavy rain with gales - not nice
-
Still mild although I feel cold indoors. Very windy this evening ……..
-
Dark gloomy and pouring with rain, just the job for getting the steps in ::)
-
Gloomy. Drizzling hard. Lots of rain drops shimmering on the bare branches. Day doing chores.
-
Bright and sunny :)

:na: …….. DH has walked to the village for the papers and told me I need to redefine 'heavy drizzle' ;D
-
Lovely crisp sunny day :sunny:
Honeyb

Enjoy it whilst it lasts ;)
Nipped out 10 mins ago and the air is icy, no wonder the birds are busy on the feeders :o

Sunny here today. A change from the wind, rain and hailstones of yesterday!
Bramble

Monotonous grey and pouring rain intermittently all day, and also quite windy. We had the lovely crisp sunny one yesterday!

Cold and foggy. My feet are freezing.
-
Cold & Sunny - starting to cloud over now..........
-
Grey, grey and grey.
-
FAB U LUS! very sharp frost and thick fog, clearing to blue sky and sunshine.
-
Heavy drizzle and grey first thing. Now bright sunshine from a blue sky, birds are busy. Breezy.
-
Keep looking at my garden and wondering how much of it will be left after the storms have passed.
Really need to batten down the hatches this time as it looks pretty bad.
Honeyb

Windy last night.
Forecast is for more gales - we're off to stay in a B&B for a couple of nights.
It's impossible to sleep in our house in strong winds.
Not sure how often I'll be able to get on here.
-
Oh Limpy ::) - good excuse to be waited on though ;)
-
CLKD - Chance would be a fine thing.
Remember, OH is still not right after his heart thing.
I'me glad we'll be away - if we stayed here chances are he'd be on the roof fixing whatever had come off.
-
In the B&B you'll get breakfast cooked?
-
Dark grey skies and pouring rain this morning, and late morning the skies cleared amidst beautiful rainbows and blue sunny skies this afternoon as the light begins to fade.
Also - not exactly today's weather, but an indication of the autumn and winter we've had so far in SW England - we are still eating fresh tomatoes that grew in our (unheated) greenhouse! My husband cleared the last of the green plants still alive just before Christmas and brought in all the green ones - we still have a pound or so left, ripening on the window sill. Now that is amazing and unheard of for January - never in nearly 30 years of growing tomatoes here!
I have hardly worn gloves either this season - maybe twice?
Hurdity x
-
We have had a mild winter here too. Very little frost up until now. Mind you last year we had ten foot snow drifts in March so plenty of winter yet to come.
My bulbs have been up for weeks now.....strange times.
Honeyb

-
Calm before the storm here, me thinks. Clear skies, little or no wind. It's supposed to blow up big time tonight. I'm getting hair cut tomorrow, so weather is bound to be atrocious.
-
Really unsure what's coming tonight....doesn't look good. Supposed to be at mothers in the morning but who knows. It's a Coast road and metres from the sea. Will will just have to wait and see how it goes.
Honeyb

Still remarkably calm here, not a puff of wind.
-
I can hear the wind now. Glad I'm in the house. It's getting stronger by the minute.
Honeyb

-
Suddenly started here too, though not too bad at the moment.
-
Clear sky earlier, great to star gazing …….if 1 is so inclined ::)
Had my bath, in bed - all quiet outside so far
-
Very noisy during the night. Sure some of our tiles have loosened. Still very stormy.
-
The B&B was very sheltered last night.
Just got home to find the bin having gone AWOL from it's home. Luckily, only went 10 yds or so.
Forecast is bad for tonight as well, so back to the B&B then.
-
Bright blue sky. Sunshine. Blustery.
Do you have to travel far Limpy?
-
No CLKD we didn't. The strange thing is where we stayed is even more in the mountains than where we live, but was so, so sheltered. Also, their broadband is tremendous, 6Mbps, when we left home yesterday ours was 160Kbps. Have to have a think about this.......
-
The wind was howling here last night - woke me up a few times so it must have been bad.
Bramble
-
Wind is picking up and the air is colder. 6 in the car last night and I didn't need a top coat earlier, the birds are finding it difficult to land on the feeders ::)
-
Our roof tiles rattled a fair bit last night, but still in situ for now anyway. Few trees down round about. Very calm just now, but it was like that last night & suddenly was blowing a gale.
-
Cold, windy, snow showers.
-
Watching the cross country from Scotland and it's been snowing hard :o there will be some chapped knees by this afternoon!
Blew hard last night
1 chair blew over, missed the car fortunately!
Went to see a friend - her HUGE trampoline had been blown loads of yards from where it stood last Summer and is now 'anchored' against a shed :o …… enough room in the thing for 8/10 kids at once
Blue sky, very cold wind - had planned to do some gardening but the wind has picked up again :-\
-
Cold, windy, snow showers.
Ditto.
-
Warm, windy, rain showers.
-
Wind calmed down after about an hour, by which time I was settled into the sofa ::) so no gardening 2-day!

Bright,sunny but very,very windy.
I don't know how much longer the fence will stay up ???
Cold too.

Snow,sleet,hail,thunder and wind.
Lovely ::)

Just a typical day in Scotland then. ;D

Very windy, chilly 2°C.
Absolutely freezing pegging little bits of washing on the line in the Car Port.
Think wind may be dropping a bit - forecast to be strong tomorrow night though.
-
Winter then ;D
-
Snow is now forecast overnight for us. Looked at 3 forecasts & all different. Will let you know tomorrow.
-
So did, snow? Lovely bright sunshine until 1.30 now it's clouded over. Breezy. Chilly. Fire lit ...
-
We had thunder half the night and blooming noisy it was.
Today is rain rain and more rain along with very strong winds.
Honeyb

-
Not a flake CLKD! Been dull all day & chilly. Longer snow stays away the better. However, mountains have been hit badly. More rescues over the weekend.
-
Hopefully the rescues were successful and not recoveries ……….
-
No deaths in the mountains so far I think.
It's normally daft tourists that go out for a bit of a walk and think they are prepared. Locals know better.
Honeyb
X
-
No, no deaths thankfully. Never can figure when weather forecasts are bad, that folk will still venture out onto the mountains. Rescue people put their lives at risk trying to rescue these folk & darned good job they do too!

Grey, windy and wet today.
Four yellow warnings for this week, for rain and wind.
Should be fun!!!

Dull,cold & very windy

How on earth did we cope before the days of yellow warnings. ::)

Baltic! Wind chill would cut you in half, but at least it's dry.

Torrential rain with gales this morning.
Stopped raining and wind has eased off.
Next strong winds not forecast till Wed pm - Thurs am - My joy knows no bounds....... ::)
-
Pouring with heavy drizzle since lunch time ………
BBC1 had snow in this area by mid-morning tomorrow, however, locally weather made no mention of snow: instead we are having bright sunshine :D
-
The BBC forecasts for here tend to be inaccurate..........
-
This was within 20 mins., 1 Nationwide, the other supposedly local - reckon they were looking at of different windows ;D …….
-
BBC had snow for us the other day, still not snowed here, not even rain. Still havent found a really accurate weather website, yet in USA they can tell you within minutes when it will rain etc.
-
Forecast snow didn't arrive. Slight frost on the roofs and our windscreen was covered even at 11.00. Chilly. Gloomy.
-
Really cold, but still no snow here. Not that I'm complaining.
-
My feet and shoulders are cold …… could be a Germ or the weather - can't decide!
-
Hubby got chilled waiting for bus. Mind you he hadn't taken hat & scarf, silly hubby!
-
Indeed: silly Hubby ::) ……. I got chilled through and am always cold around my shoulders.

Gales & very heavy rain

Absolutely awful here. Very wild and wet and scary. We have 6 large pine and oak trees out the front and they are swaying all over the place. I can't sleep and the rain lashing against the window is not helping :( (http://:(). I usually have the small window open but have had to close it.

:o :o :o
Honeyb

-
Our pine trees - or whatever they were - blew horizontal in the hurricane of October 1987! (This was when we lived in Essex.) Don't think it's quite like that just now, but it's certainly pretty wild out there.
-
I remember that time Dulciana, we had only been here 3 weeks. The house has the old metal crittal windows and a few cracked panes of glass. We were so scared, especially after moving from a modern well insulated house
We were very,very lucky and escaped without damage!
Last night wasn't quite that bad but still scary :o (http://:o)
-
16th October if I remember ;)
Wind always sounds worse in the early hours. It was blustery here until early hours and I didn't expect anything to be in place but apart from flower pots, nothing has moved ….
Bright sunshine with April showers ::) and not cold
-
Absolutely unbelievable.
I shop on Thursday and both supermarkets are on the shore from of a town about 12 miles away. We managed one and decided against the other as it was just too dangerous. It took two of us to hold the trolley. Hubbies glasses got blown off his face. I couldn't open the car door hubby had to do it and it took a real effort to stay on my feet.
I did see a really funny thing though. I shouldn't laugh but......standing in the queue I saw a man who had bought an ironing board. It took him umpteen goes to get it in his car as he and the board kept getting blown down the car park. It was hilarious to watch him. I thought he was going to take off.
Anyway very glad to be home now.
Honeyb

Saw someone trying to walk to supermarket with a trolley bag. One step forward, two steps back. Really stormy. More of the same tonight.
-
:o that's what I call WINDY :D
Blue sky. Blustery. 9 in the car …….
-
I couldn't stand up outside after lunch, it's getting worse.
-
Hell's Teeth that was a bluster :o ……. still bright sunshine though!
-
Gales and sleet again, what joy.
The gales are forecast to start dropping at about 9pm.
That being the case we have left the B&B and are now back home.
Hope we've not been to hasty. :-\
Off to put the big torch on charge (little one still in handbag) ;D
-
The wind has dropped now and it's just breezy. Our electricity went off for about five mins.....I had put the torch away ;D ::)
Now it should start to brighten up for a few days next week.

Its been very windy but today has been a little better, bright sunshine much of the day, but late afternoon dark clouds, heavy rain and wind
getting very bad again, the scary type now.
-
Forecast was for it to ease off, but then build again overnight. Would love a peaceful sleep.
-
Lovely and peaceful here tonight. It's does not sound like a jet plane when I open the door. Even the dog is quite happy to go into the garden.
I find storms quite tiring for some unknown reason so I'm glad it's passed for now.
Honeyb

-
Wind has dropped here too, still quite strong but not the horrible gusts.
The highest wind strength earlier today at the closest weather station was 96 Mph :o
-
Its something to do with pressure changes HB. Children are more hyper in stormy weather. Someone did explain it to me once but I've forgotten all the technical stuff.
-
Currently listening to the wind doing its best to blow our roof off. There are loud rattling noises, so pretty sure some tiles are already loose. Hubby going to look in the morning. Winds not due to ease until about 5am. Gonna be another long night!
-
Did you sleep? Here it's calm. Grey/blue sky. Havne't been out yet to test the air chill …...
-
Bright, sunny, looks cold. Haven't been out yet but feels cold inside ???

Violent thunder and lightening storm earlier with hail stones.
Now no wind but raining.
Crazy weather :o

Just had a text from my son saying he is home safe and sound....just....he thinks he may well be snowed in by the morning. Perhaps I could go and get stuck with him ::)

Amazed we've had no snow here, there sure seems to be plenty of it about. Very calm thankfully after past few days.
At least your daughter had sense to abandon her plans HB, sensible. Your son is safe too & that's what matters most.
-
Lots of snow overnight. More to come this morning I think.

Woke at 4.30 thick snow! Looked amazing. Crisp clean untouched,

-
Can you Keep It ;D - snow should stick to postcards and views ::) - bet the scenery is lovely if the sky is blue :-*
DH is filling the camper with water. Off to an antiques fair weather permitting 2-morrow, 2 hours drive from here but up and down a bit so should the weather 'turn' ……….. we will at least have a roof over our head and heat!
This morning: very chilly wind has dropped. Blue sky. Birds busy. A bit of grey in the sky but any clouds are scudding.
-
We've been so lucky. Frost but no snow, yet.
-
Kids building snow men and sledging down hills, fun to watch. It's bitterly cold and the sky is grey.

R you watching from your windows then Honeybun? Camera at the ready in case you see a 'shot' for that programme that pays £250.00 ;)

In our last but one house we had very steep hills behind us. One of our neighbours went up to the top of the hill with his new skis. He wasn't very good but was doing the macho showing off thing. He hurtled down the hill hit a big tuft of something did a somersault landed on his feet going backwards and then demolished a fence. It was one of the funniest things I have ever seen. Never saw him on skis again ;D

WHOOPS ;D …….. went for a walk this morning to fetch the papers, DH has walked to visit a friend 1 mile away - we've been watching TV that states we ought to be walking more ………. it looks lovely out there from where I'm sitting ;)
-
Arghhhhh it's snowing & lying.
-
Same here in East Yorks. It will be fun on the roads if it freezes too! ::)
Galadriel x
-
Curtains shut so don't know since it got dark what's happening outside ;) - been bright all day :)
-
Frozen solid now. Nothing moving in our street. It's just dangerous now. Let's say I won't be going to mothers tomorrow....well it's not my day. ;D
Honeyb

-
Hubby can have our car tomorrow, I'm not driving. Normally would go for swim, but snot & pools don't mix very well. ;D
-
Temperature was -2° - was supposed to be 0°
Also, started snowing - that wasn't forecast either.
OH had taken car to garage, luckily, it was mostly dry so no real problem with ice.
-
We are solid ice here, but the sun is coming out now so hopefully staring to thaw out a little :)
-
Bright blue sky in sunshine. Very cold in the shade. DH has washed our camper and already the pavement has frozen :o ………. seasonal, I LOVE it but you can KEEP the snow ;)
-
roads still icy really bad in the built up areas but main roads seem ok. Freeeeeeezing
x
-
Well last night's snow turned to rain then froze. Roads are lethal today. Heard every car crunch up & down the road since 4am, so I'm shattered.
Today is gorgeous though.
-
Our neighbours bang car doors from 6.30 onwards - but they only have 2 cars >:(
-
Blue skies but the temperature is still below freezing.
Honeyb

-
Snow eventually stopped falling and what was there melted.
Now it's clear skies and 0°
Another cold night - what joy
-
Makes a change from constant rain and wind.
Temperatures are dropping sharply now.
Honeyb

-
Seasonal still ;D
Dusk now - nights are getting lighter ;)
-
They are CLKD, it was nearly 5pm before it was dark.
Spring is acoming.
Honeyb

-
I felt like spring was coming soon yesterday, bit lighter for longer, then it got dark and icy cold!
X
-
Oh you a really are more North than us, it was 4.48 when I noted the dusk arriving - will try to remember to check tomorrow evening ;)
I think I have an aconite trying to appear - if we don't get snow!
-
Really sharp frost all day - then it went to 6 in the car followed by heavy rain :( ……… it's 9 in the car this evening :o
-
Fine after a heavy April shower at 8.15 a.m. Blue sky. Much warmer. Hopefully the snow which is forecast for parts of the US won't head this way [apparently it's currently on it's way to Lanzarote] ::)
-
Sunny & wind which would cut you in two. Should have seen my hair once I got home from town. ;D
-
Go on then, post a piccie ;D ………….
Clouding up now …..
-
Sunny, blue skies and chilly.
Quite pleasant really.
-
Snow is forecast 'down here' >:( : at least the oil has been delivered ;)
-
Think it's going to be a baton down the hatches time later in the week.
Oh what fun.....again.
Honeyb

-
Oh what fun - not ;D
-
No chance CLKD! It would frighten you. ;D
Son's GF due to fly to Paris later in the week, hope she makes it.
-
Paris for work?
Dull now …… that's the weather not me
have you seen the forecast and pictures from the US :o
-
Crikey! there's been a flurry of sleet, high winds, heavy rain, the birds are battling to stay on the wing :o
Not cold though ::)
-
We had a hailstorm here in Cheshire, early this morning, and it's sleeting at the moment <brr>. Daughter is off school for the day (she's supposed to be studying!) so we're wrapping up warm. Snow on the way, apparently.
-
Son's GF going with her sister to Disneyland Paris for a girly few days. Driving to Glasgow today, flying tomorrow. Weather not looking great!
Here it's getting colder by the hour, still dry though.
-
Intermittent snow showers here but too wet to lie thank goodness. More on its way I hear. ANd windy.
B.
-
Anyone feel the earthquake last night?
Am watching the snow effects in the US ……. Boston - 80mph winds causing power cuts! A foot and a half, is that all ::)
-
Snowdrops are out though. Nice to see them!

Hailstones interspersed by sleet and a very strong wind.....lovely ::)

-
Very strong winds with rain and a temperature of 2C (haven't found how to do the degree symbol on the Macbook yet)
-
Had to go out at lunchtime... it was bitter! Snow flurries here, strong winds blowing now.
-
Blue sky and blustery. We need to open 1 car door at a time or ;D
-
Hubby just went out. Its blowing a gale & we have snow flurries. He asked if he'd need gloves & hat. Mmmmm let me think.
-
Rain this morning, now bright but very windy. Back fence now loose and have done temporary repair. Left message for proper repair (more money!!!).
-
Sympathies rosebud. Happened to us during a summer storm a few years back. One of the posts had rotted right through and one strong gust snapped it. Down came a 12ft section of fencing. Hubby had to go & buy thick rope & tie it up to hold it from taking off down the road. Wasn't cheap to get it fixed properly either. Got 3 fencing folk out, only one quoted.
-
Earthquake in Rutland last night :o one in Winchester 2 nights ago …..
Bright sunshine. Blue sky. Am hearing that Snow is a problem above Scotch Corner :-\ ……… off to feed our birds!
-
Think it's that central belt as we're snow free here. Earth never moves for us. ::) ;D
-
It did for us once right in the middle of ............... it was truly something to remember.
No snow here and not very cold, our local weather forecasted a red weather warning last night but did say the snow fall would vary from region to region.
-
We had 10 large snow flakes from a blue sky this morning ………. now the sky is black and the birds busy on the feeders. DH is laying the fire. I understand that parts of Yorkshire have it bad, Manchester Airport was gridlocked from 10.30 a.m. flights to N York were delayed ………
Oh it's arrived! heavy sleet and hail from a very grey sky ……….. birds all gone. DH going to put off filling the coal bucket, I have suggested that he goes whilst he can still see across the Yard ;D ……… and before it begins to lay ::) so he's gone, muttering ;D
-
Looks like its arriving here too.
-
Gone now ::) sky blue again :D
-
Horrid this morning, 1°C (guess who's finding out more about driving her macbook) with very strong winds and heavy soft hail / sleet. Then had a little bit of snow which cleared very quickly. Now blue skies, dry and sunny, still only 2°C so hot it ain't.
-
January then ;)
-
Bright & sunny this morning.
Clouded over this afternoon.
Sleet,hale and snow.
Very cold out.
-
That hail which laid is still there …….. waiting for more snow?
-
No more snow and what we did have didn't lay.
Still bitterly cold though.
-
We have quite a lot of lying snow and it's frozen on the side roads. It's really very cold here. I think I will leave the heating on very low tonight. Dont want any frozen pipes.

Had to drive through a horrible hailstorm which suddenly came on half way on our journey to take grandchildren home. Traffic chaos everywhere. Very relieved to get there. Not so bad coming home thank goodness
-
We had our first proper snow yesterday - and it came down quickly and thickly for about 2 hours - a little more overnight, but its already melting and now just cold! To think I used to love snow when I was young..... now I teeter about like the old lady I am afraid of falling....
-
The hail storm froze but is melting now. Birds busy. Sky was grey first thing (8.30) but sky is now blue.
-
Lovely day.
-
Have had 4 kinds of weather so far 2-day ::) .......... and I didn't get up until 9.20 :D
-
Rain, sleet, snow, wind. Another quiet day then . ;D
-
;D
-
Frequent snow showers today. Had enough now! Bring on summer. ::) Sorry Taz. ;)
-
Dull and chillier now, we've been out and about across the County in sunshine and there is snow laying in places ……
-
Bright blue skies and beautiful sunshine. The temperature has not got above 1
degree.
I love bright winter days.

From 8.30-11.00 p.m. it snowed gently. Covered the ground then froze but only where it touched: i.e. near the house walls the path is clear. So have fed wild birds several times this morning and new delivery of live meal worms arrived, everyone is happy :) ……… blue sky. Brisk wind but not particularly cold. Snow is thawing but expect it will freeze again this evening.
-
Heavy wet snow earlier which didn't lie with us but about a mile further south it's quite deep, according to tesco delivery guy.
-
Blue skies, lots of sun, gentle breeze.
Pegged washing out - it didn't really dry. :-\
Suspect that max temperature of 3°C had quite a bit to do with that ::)
-
I find that there isn't any dry at this time of year but it does the laundry good to have a blow!
-
Dull. Dull. Dull. But we've been in the garden :clapping: pruning, digging, tying in …….. feeding wild birds ……… I planted up 50 aconites which arrived by post and threw away rose cuttings that didn't take :-\ ………. got a bit scissor happy at a clematis ::) but it will flower eventually ……….
Drizzling now. Nights are pulling out! [sorry Taz]
-
That's ok CLKD - I am coping. ;D I still have a few days of February left before March plunges me into gloom but by April I will be more accepting of the fact that Spring is here and then there's May which is a month I like and then June which is beginning to get a bit too summery but, hey, that has the longest day in so that's not too bad!!
Taz x
-
Gloomy here today with spits & spots in the strong wind. Loved the clear days earlier in the week. Daughter's family managed, yet again, to arrive during good spell of weather.
-
Lovely sunny dry day.
-
Warmer today and dry
-
Sunshine and 9 degrees. :) :) :)
-
A sunny but very cold day in Ohio. The high temperature was 3 F, that's -16 C. Brrrrr.
-
Grey Grey Grey

Cloudy 4° dry now, but was pouring 2 hours ago.
-
Rhubarb - is it a dry cold?
Here it was bright sunshine until 10.15 when it began to pour but the air isn't as cold! Dull still …...
-
I suppose it is a dry cold, but when it's that far below freezing I don't notice the humidity making much difference. It was -9 overnight, that's -23 C!
-
Forecast for 2-morrow is for fine!
-
Yeterday was warmer, this morning we have a slight frost and it's cold. ::)
-
Chilly wind, but we have sunshine. :)
-
:sunny: blue sky. Calm. Gardening beckons ….. well a cuppa by the pond first ;)
-
Pouring with cold rain ……..
-
Mixed. Some wind, some sunshine, some rain.
-
Was a little wet earlier, sun out now :)
-
wet and cold :(
-
Showers. Not cold though. I want spring/summer to come. >:(

Oh me too Littleminnie
Woke this morning to a light dusting of snow, soon cleared now snowing again not lying though too wet x

Sunny but chilly

Chilly. Supposed to be the white stuff tomorrow but not cold enough, well not yet anyway.

Sunny; hail; sleet; rain ::)

Freezing, really cold.

Today started with a frost, but no wind.
It's bright and sunny but supposed to be clouding over this afternoon.

Grey, windy & sleet.

Bleugh - Grey, windy and rain. A day for inside.

Sharp frost. Sunshine. Dull. Raining …………..

Apparently more snow is on it's way :-\ ……… certainly it's blowing a hooley out there and the rain is icy >:(
It blew so hard a few moments ago that the lounge wooden door burst open :o as all the windows round the house rattled.
-
So they say, for next weekend. Though we've been so lucky here. Hardly had any snow at all.
-
Right now IT'S AWFUL WINDY outside.
This wasn't forecast................
-
We haven't had any snow here in South Wales this winter.
However, we have had torrential rain today - all the lanes and even some of the main roads are flooded, and hubby has just come home soaked to the skin, having had to push his car out of a huge lake of water.
-
Oh Honorsmum - more expense?
-
Same here mixed with exceptionally high tides.
Hope the car is ok.

We had a super tide here yesterday - only happens every 18.5 years.
Hubby managed to get the car home - fingers crossed, it will start tomorrow.
-
Will he have a look-see or does it need to go to the Garage?
-
Will he have a look-see or does it need to go to the Garage?
He's quite handy, so will have a look himself first. We're lucky - we have a good family garage just round the corner who will come and look if he has any trouble.
It has been hailing (sp?) and pouring down overnight and this morning - really awful weather.
Poor chickens look like drowned rats - they practically fall into the house every time I open the front door, because they're huddled together on the front door step!
-
Hail is OK! where you live ;)
POURED last evening. Now the sky is blue. Air is cold. Birds busy …..
How many chickens? if ours were in the garden they would run for shelter back into their run!
-
Brass monkeys!
-
5 chickens :)
They hate this weather, poor girls - no escape from the cold and wind, even under the coop.
Cats are all indoors, dogs too.
-
Bright start today and warmer but still a wind.
More rain forecast for this afternoon.
Husband out in the woods volunteering for our local 'Wildlife Trust'. Not sure what he is doing (digging ditches or cutting back trees). Will be very sticky underfoot with all the rain we had at the weekend.
More washing!!!!
-
Neither seems 'safe' Rosebud! with all that mud!
We had 3 chickens each time, I made sure that they had enough space under the shed where they slept to get out of the weather, it was wired over and under the ground to stop rats/foxes/badgers digging them out. It was funny when they saw snow for the first time …….
Right - CHORES!
-
Our hen house is on stilts, so there's a dry area for them to shelter...but the wind is swirling today, so no escape. They could go into the carport if they were bright enough, and we have plenty of hedges - but everywhere seems to be getting the weather today...except the porch.
-
"bright enough" - I think our 3 shared a brain cell ::) - However: when DH put a gate between the kitchen door and the garden where they were running free, they hopped onto the fence and shuffled along until they could 'fly' into the kitchen ;D - I am sure they were :na: …. at
DH !
-
Grey ,miserable and hissing down :-\
CLKD love that you have chickens ,we had 3 as we live in large town only smallish garden, I loved spending time with them out in the garden ,they each had their own personality, but unfortunately we decided to get rid of them as one night we caught a Fox trying to get in at them and I couldn't bear the thought of getting up one morning to find something horrible had happened to them ! Short of sitting up all night didn't want to take the risk but I do miss my gals ! X
-
Our neighbours had fox attacks but ours were at the bottom of the garden and there was 2" wire under ground and over the run. I know our Girls were lucky.
Yesterday was lovely - today it's pouring ::) - haven't been out the door yet …...
-
Quite nice for a change, though still a bite in the wind.
-
Lots of rain this morning but not too cold.
Now, sunny, breezy and distinctly cooler.
-
It was 11 in our car last night. Not cold today, there's been a break of 40 mins. before storms but sky is black again!
-
Sun, snow, hail, wind and then rain, then snow.... ;D
Nothing like a bit of variety

Normal day up there then :lol:

Frost in the shade first thing. Sun out. Blue sky. Loverely ;)

Poured over night after a lovely Friday when I did lots of gardening and sat in the sun. None of that today ::) but it isn't cold.

Don't know if it's cold, haven't been out yet.
Beautiful day yesterday.

It was here yesterday.
Pouring again now ::)

Lots of sunshine pouring through our Cabin window in the garden and into the lounge :-*
Wind slightly warmer too.
-
I would if I could. It's not so bad now as the sun is going down a bit so not so bright. I think that if I was where I should be in that special place by the sea then I would enjoy the better weather. It just reminds me of what I'm missing!!
Taz x
-
Warm and sunny. 3 lots of washing dry. :)
-
Wind has got even stronger :o
-
Boy is it wild out there! Temp started out at 10° first thing. With wind chill it now feels like 0°. Brrrrr
Just driven home, missiles blowing horizontally. Branch blew under car, so had to pull over to unwedge it. Then nearly got hit by a low flying red bull can. It may give you wings, but they need to learn to fly better. ;D
-
Empty can? how scary!
Very cold here :-\ ……… such a change again!
-
Thankfully empty, doubt it would have flown full.
-
Not even with wings ;D Home now, safely?
-
Poured all morning and is blowing a gale. Blooming cold too. Just lovely. Got to go out soon so will keep an eye out for low flying cans, could have reached me by now ;D

According to the forecast you're 'in for it' this week :-X
Keep it ;) what ever it is :D - snow for the morning hopefully ;)

We've had a few flakes blowing through the rain. Weather said temperatures of 10 degrees today, sure didn't take into account the wind chill!
-
It was a lovely morning, nice enough to have lunch by the ponds and potter round the garden. Laundry blowing hard now, the sky has clouded over and is now grey ………. :(
-
Vile this morning, cool & raining hard.
This afternoon sunny & dry.
-
Lovely! Been at work so didn't see much of it but had top down on the car coming home.
Hoping for a nice day tomorrow.......gardening to be done! :worm: :tulips2:

Lousy!!! Blowing a gale, again. Raining, again! :(

Slight improvement on yesterday. Mist. ;D

Beautiful,sunny but slight breezy which makes it a bit cool.
Warm in the sun though.

Sorry, but what is sun? ;D

CG - Apparently it's the big yellow thing in the sky, rumoured to cause heat.............
It's been horrible here today, rained most of the day.
It was supposed to be hot - pah

East coast sea fog. ;D

Fog is so bad that son & his GFs flight from Gatwick was diverted to Edinburgh. Now being bussed up & they are both working tomorrow morning. Won't get home until after 1am.

Very cloudy during the eclipse. Did go quite dark though and the birds stopped singing.
Not as good here as the 1999 one. Hubby saw it from a plane. The kids and I and most of the other people in my street saw it from my back garden. It was very eerie.
Super moon tonight.....not here, the cloud is back in again. Missed the northern lights again earlier in the week. I have seen them before.....31 years ago from Durness when we were on holiday. Stunning and never to be forgotten. Hope I get to see them again.
Honeybun

All the time I've lived in the north & not once seen Northern Lights! Hubby has seen a few times when doing night shifts.
Next eclipse in 2026, next big one after that I'll be pushing up the daisies! ;D

So what do I do?
Get a wash done and pegged out - Sad or what ::)

Like me then Limpy - I did woollens today, which are now blowing gently in the sun: that's rugs, 2 cushion covers, 2 jumpers ;)
:sunny: is FabULus ;)

Dull & damp up here again. :(

But you're not far up the road from me ::) ………. I'll huff some sunshine your way ;)

Still waiting. ;D

Whoops, sorry, forgot ……….. dark now ;)

I reckon Charles Dickens described the sort of day it's been here
"“It was one of those March days when the sun shines hot and the wind blows cold
when it is summer in the light, and winter in the shadeâ€
Taz x ;D
-
Normal weather then Taz. ;D
Sunshine promised for tomorrow. Here's hoping.
-
Oh thought it was rain forecast for 2morrow and sunny again on Tuesday :-\ - anyone see the eclipse?
-
It was a definite anti-climax here as there was too much cloud but lots of friends had cloudless skies and had a wonderful view.

All's normal again - Grey & drizzly

Wind blowing hard against the house.
Blue sky with heavy drizzle ::)
Bending the new daff stalks over so have picked them off the ground for the house …….
The fruit blossom will suffer >:(

Been mixed so far today. Some clouds, some rain & some sunshine.

More like hurricanes and monsoon here !
-
Bit like Sapang yesterday, qualifying was held up for hours due to torrential rain and standing water on the track - fortunately today's race appeared dry. Black sky here, bright sunshine,blustery.
-
WOW! the rain woke DH and nothing disturbs his sleep usually!!!
The only thing we haven't had 2-day is snow/hail but the WIND ……… and rain and ………. the birds were flying backwards, the trees have been almost double every time a blust came over!
-
Hail, snow, rain, strong winds.
Boring it's not......Oh and some sunshine.

Freezing here. Wind would cut you in two. April tomorrow, so no doubt we will get the obligatory showers.

It's horrible. We got better weather in the winter.

At least DH isn't bent over or being blown sideways by the wind!
April showers today ::)

Breezy and April showers here too
Chilling listening to Lionel :whist:

Better today.....Well at least it's not snowing ::)

Roofer came to sort out missing slate - surprised he went on the roof given the strong wind. :-\
He was obviously blessed though, 10 minutes after he finished, the rain started.
Hasn't stopped since.

Sun broke over The Fens by 9.30 a.m., lovely drive through the countryside to an antiques fair on our way home from Mum's. Been drizzly briefly. Sun now pouring through our lounge windows.

Sunny! I'm sleeveless! First time this year.

Sunny and warm. Wish it would stay like this all week but forecast says otherwise.

However, the weather is supposedly becoming 'tropical' by next weekend :o

It's bound to be lovely for the next 18 days cos I'm going away ! ;D

Off you go, quick, quick, quick ;) - packed yet?

Beautiful sunny day today, it's supposed to last the whole week down here - shame it's back to work tomorrow then ::).

Sunny

FabULus :sunny: - the Weather Man said that because the sun is 'warmer than usual for this time of year' we should begin wearing sun screen - well actually, I can remember it being warmer than this in late February ::) but he's probably correct in that DH when fishing *ought* to cream up ……..
-
Another glorious day here 8)

:sunny: I've been shedding layers all day! and now thinking of moving into the shade of our garden 'cos 1 side of my neck is burning!
However: :( there's a chilly breeze out of the sun ………. [moves out of the shade ::) ]

Toasty!

In bed then ;D

Warmest day so far forecast for 2-morrow!

Glorious. Hope it's same when we get home tonight.

Right above my bungalow then CLKD.
It was murky this morning but cleared away this afternoon.
The local radio were advising people with asthma/breathing problems to be wary etc & take there meds with them if they go out.
-
Murky at home. :(
-
It was warm till 5pm ish - but murky though.
We noticed today, even though it's been warm all week, there's still some snow on the tops of the hills opposite us.
Turned noticeably cooler this evening, hill snow mentioned in weather forecast for tomorrow.
-
:sunny: … but I understand that up North the wind is ferocious >:(
-
Not too windy here. Think you have to go a lot further north for the wind.
What it is here is blooming cold. Spring like it is not. :(

Had to put heating on. Was warm outside earlier, but chilly wind has brought temperature down. Not a ferocious wind here, just breezy.

I put our heating on at 8.30 - so that the bathroom is warm ;)
Apparently the Keswick and Sky Bridges were closed for a while today :o

Hot hot hot and sunny sunny sunny. Just about coping....

Cool and breezy - quite a bit of low cloud / sea mist

We had 3 lovely sunny warm days: this morning it's heating back on - April then ::)

Had to put our heating back on today. Now the sun is out.

Glorious! after such cold wind yesterday I'm outside feeling nice and warm, may have to shed a layer ::)

Really warm and I have a bit of a tan. I promised myself I would stay out of the sun this year. Well that lasted about an hour until the strappy top was on and I was sitting in the sun. I know it's aging especially as I am dark skinned but it makes me feel and look so much better.
Did not get much on my face though. My daughter gives me such a hard time...but I just love the sun. I think she is jealous ;D, she is very fair like her dad.

It's important to get out in the sun :sunny:- forget about the ageing and get that Vitamin D girls - I'm a sun worshipper and always have been :)
Today it was 22 in the shade in our yard and as sizzling hot as a June day. Managed to lie outside this afternoon for an hour after working (had a headache - well that's my excuse!).

Already my hands are brown through gardening and walking
Need to get the arms out next
Cold now that the sun's down

Think I need to move south. Tomorrow promises, no sun for here. Today was sunny, but ooh a nip in the wind as usual. Hardly strappy top weather. I was putting on layers not taking them off.

Warm and sunny here still. Managing to avoid it though ;D

You'd like it here Taz. ::)
Skies are grey and it's getting cooler.
Rain over the weekend, possibly snow next week. ;D
-
Cosy today. Rain was forecast, but nothing yet. Think snow is on the hills Limpy. Sure hope so anyway! Guess April is going out like a lion.
-
Think you're right about the snow CG.
There's still a little bit on the hills opposite, from last winter.
Looks like it'll be topped up soon.
Can't complain, it usually lasts till well into May.
-
Temp has dropped by 7° in two hours. Brrrrrr
-
Lovely. Promised rain hasn't arrived - yet, though our barrels all need filling!
HOWEVER: SNOW :o is forecast - of course it is, there's a Bank Holiday on the horizon …...
-
Been distinctly chilly today.
Fine drizzle started at about 5pm.
-
Rain/snow. :(
-
Sunny but cool 6C at midday/
The snow has gone from the hilltops opposite to us.
However, the forecast is for rain during the coming week.
-
Blizzard now. Brrrrrrr
-
Snow back on the hills opposite.
Right here, sunny, chilly and intermittent hail showers.
Hot it aint.

Beautiful sunshine 8)

Blustery, cold, wind. Blue sky. Grey clouds. Too chilly to sit outside :-\
-
Lovely earlier, now inky black skies.
-
Sunny but with a blustery cold wind here too.
No, won't be sitting outside today either CLKD ;)
-
I will add 2 layers before I go out there weeding that's for sure :D
-
It was snowing when I left home at 6am this morning! Blue skies and clouds (some very grey!) now - and a cold wind. Hard to believe we were walking around in short sleeves last week!
-
Our black skies produced hailstones. A tad chilly exposed places.
-
I put on a thick coat and got to it in the beds that require weeding. Worn out now and still acres to tackle :P
Grey skies blew over ……… wind cold though, time of year I suppose ::)
-
Cold and wet. Had the heating on all day. :(
-
I read you had put your coat on in bed CLKD ;D I know it's chilly.
Cold here & heavy showers with hail!

Cold here heating on brrrrrr ! >:(

Very wet this morning but dry and sunny now.
Put a wash on, this had to be negotiated with OH who's desperate to light a bonfire to clear garden rubbish. Thankfully, the ground is too wet to do that.
-
Cats & dogs! ;D
-
Not only is it dry and sunny it's windy as well.
2nd small dark wash just gone in.........
Just noticed - there's lots of snow on the hills still.
-
Rained this morning but clearing now.
Looking a bit brighter.

Puts me in mind of what was my Mum's favourite rhyme:
Whether the weather be cold,
Or whether the weather be hot,
We'll weather the weather
Whatever the weather,
Whether we like it or not!

lovely sunny day typical as Iwas working ! :-\

Some rain whilst camping one night, otherwise days were nice enough to walk around without coats on. POURED last night, fortunately we took the awning down last evening - have seen bright sunshine and blue skies from 3.30 p.m.
Very blustery wind though ……..
-
Got a bit cloudy as I left work this afternoon. Half way home, the heavens opened and I think there was a little man up in those clouds chucking tiny marbles down on us all - AKA hailstones. Then by the time I was almost home, butter wouldn't melt in its mouth and the pavements weren't even wet.
-
Started out quite nice, then very heavy rain, now it's dry again. Shame I got my washing soaked though. :(
-
Very wet this morning. Git the heating on even though it's not particularly cold.
-
Cloudy, little glimpses of sunshine & chilly.
-
Heavy showers through pouring sunshine ::)
-
I'm sure I read that we are going to have a good summer. Maybe I dreamt it.

The heavens have opened :o
-
It has been April showers today, including hail :o
-
Absolutely chucking it down with rain and high winds ! >:(

Heavy showers, sunny spells.

horrible windy, cool, rainy day in London. Then of course it clears up, far too late to enjoy it.
-
POURED from 9.30 until mid-afternoon then very windy before a calm clear evening - frost next? (and what's this with the weather man telling us it may be a 'grass frost' :-\ - we're OK then, we don't have lawn ;D )
-
8° in May!!! Heating is on again. Roll on next weekend when it's supposed to be nice. Believe that when I see it!

Cool 9° and breezy again - due to rain later

I had my leccy blanket on in the early hours ::)
Chillly breeze

The weather man on the BBC told me this morning. He promised. ::)

I just looked at Met Office forecast for here. No heat wave for here. However, daughter will be basking in 27°C. I've asked hubby if we can move south.
Driving drizzle here. Of course I realise this is due to the sun sweating! ;D

I think we are supposed to reach the giddy heights of about 16 degrees. Wow, can't wait.
The sun is sweating here too.....a lot ;D

I have just seen our forecast for Monday into Tuesday. 50 mile an hour winds :o
I'm going to take down my hanging baskets and put them in the garage. I'm not prepared to loose all my plants. I will try and protect other stuff in pots by puting them in sheltered positions.

1st June & temp is 9° but says it feels like 7°. That must be why I'm hugging the radiator! Just had to don warmer outfit for our lunch today. Started out in linen trousers & lightweight shirt.

Got so cold and wet going home from work yesterday - heavens opened (helped along by very strong winds) just as I left the office, and again as I left the supermarket!! Single-figure temperatures too - it was so nice to get home to a lovely warm house (we had a new boiler fitted this time last year, with the facility to control it from a mobile phone via the internet - worth every penny!!).
This morning - clear blue skies, breezy, cool - but that cool that promises to warm up as the day progresses .... maybe we've turned the corner?!!
-
Breezy still but got some sunshine, at least for now.
-
Spoke too soon - clouded over completely now :( And it's chilly in the office - 'heating' system is on its summer setting, so will only blow cold air. Choice is sit in a cold draft from the vents, or switch it off and sit in the natural cold - I'm fed up of being cold at work .... I need a blanket for my legs!!

was pouring and very windy, rain has stopped now wind hasnt :( but it does feel a little warmer hopefully gonna pick up now :-\

Please ladies don't vote to leave the EU. I desperately need to look forward to retiring somewhere like France or Spain as I so desperately need sunshine. If we leave, anyone living there would have to pay 100% of health costs, which means unless you're super rich, you can't. At present, as EU citizens, you self fund for 5 years, then you are on the state health care under EU law.
(I don't understand why the UK doesn't just implement EU law like other states do? It's not possible any more for me to go to live in France and go straight onto their excellent NHS. It used to be but they changed domestic law).
Sorry to get sidetracked. I just crave sunshine. An elderly woman I go to hop about class with lives 6 months of the year near Valencia. She told me just how much it's helped both her and her husband's health. The Norwegians (always on about being like Norway here ::)) encourage their retired to go and live in warmer climates, then they pay their health costs in mainland Europe as they save on health costs!!
Bad weather = oldsheep ranting. Sorry.

Heating is on again. Gas company must be rubbing their hands with glee!

I have added a layer …… ::)
Off to start another thread ;)

Gales again today, showers rather than monsoon, bit warmer, got up to 15ºC (briefly).
Mind you 12ºC ain't bad.......

me honebun, :( got jeans shirt and cardigan on, damn this wind its just blew our little tomato tent clean across the garden leaving the plants bent over, hopefully not too damaged though, it has blew a few flowers off them :(

When we had a little tomato tent we attached it to a fence to stop it blowing away. You could also use tent peg things.
Mind you we are up a big hill overlooking the sea so it gets pretty windy up here.

yes hb ours is fastened to the shed and weighted down but the stupid thing still took off, i think the toms are ok, hope so as its our first go at it and they were looking so healthy, we now have 2 tumbling toms in baskets on the fence, so oh says if they go ok, we will stick to them next time kerrie

Sun going down and a black cloud approaches :-\
-
Lots of gentle drizzle, may pose a problem for the Pied Wagtail nest...........
Will post in roof thread.
-
Damp, but sun trying to put in an appearance.
-
Rain,rain, rain this morning.
Starting to brighten up now.
-
Very windy over-night
Heavy rain early morning followed by very b right sunshine
-
34 degrees and becoming more overcast. Stifling.
-
Bit cooler than yesterday, but still lovely. Maybe sleep better tonight. Thunderstorms forecast for during the night here.
-
Glad I'm not at Wimbledon!
Muggy
Over-cast
Too warm to sit outside or pick roses for the house :-\
-
Very hot but with a bit of a breeze and overcast.
Had a paddle this morning which was lovely. First time in the sea this year. If it stays this hot I may well go for a swim tonight.

up to 32 in the flat now. Just gave a very very very busy local air con guy a call and left a message. We think spending money on reversible air con would be wonderful. Pity we didn't do it last summer when it first occurred that 2 weeks or more of the summer are unbearable up here!
Fans are useless.
Going down to the shade in the garden. Air quality is terrible today in London.
-
Two things I think UK houses should have, as our weather warms up - (1) air conditioning and (2) window shutters. Grin-and-bear-it stiff upper lips won't do. They've woken up to these things abroad and it's time we did.
-
I really think it would be a waste of money for us. We count our summer in days rather than weeks ::)
I'm thinking of more insulation for the winter to be honest.
Honeyb

-
Air con seems like a good idea when weather is like this, but as HB says not many really hot days up here. Not worth the money. I remember long scorching summers in the 70s, but not nowadays. Showing my age again. ;D

Agree, reversible air con would mean heat in winter and cool in summer. London is unbearable when it's this humid.
Shutters are wonderful and insulate against both hot and cold. I'd love to have them.
-
Keeping windows closed unless it's really windy out there is the way to go. Keeps the bugs/flies/moths out as well as the intense heat. Shutters in pale blue anyone?
I'm going out later with DH :-\

Ominous skies earlier, but they've cleared again.

The curtains are blowing - that won't help sleep then ::). There may even be a breeze occasionally ………
-
Great light show from about 2am then came the downdraught! Wow trees were horizontal then 30 minutes of thunder. The rain was phenomenal!
-
Raining loving it :D
-
10 mins of light rain. Cooler though, although looks like it'll heat up again tomorrow
-
It is now hottest its been this year 25° in NE Scotland!

Rain stopped its now stiffling !

Dull this morning but sunny now. Not so humid today with a little sea breeze.

Humid and very hot this morning. Clouded over now with a couple of light showers.
Feels stormy :-\
-
Bit fresher today but grey.
Light rain shower earlier.
-
Cloudier now, but still very hot.
-
Great light show from about 2am
Lightning or Northern Lights?
-
Wish it had been Northern Lights, never seen them. ;D
-
I would really like to see the Northern Lights.
The irritating thing is they were HERE a week or so go.
There were pictures of them on the local TV news, very spectacular colours.
OH had got up for a loo break and had idly thought it was very bright for that time of night but didn't look out of the window ::)
-
Raining, our BBQ is now having to go under the grill, and I bought new gas earlier today :(
Honeyb

-
Son's barbq on Sat & rain's forecast. Gazebo & brolleys are required.
-
So muggy here tonight. More so than last night when we had thunderstorm, which hubby & my neighbour slept through. Maybe get another storm tonight, certainly need fresher air.
-
Heck it's warm here too, not a breath of air. I've just been sitting on the back step trying to get cool. The midges are out though :o
Honeybun

-
My head is sore too with the heat. It's raining now, so maybe that'll help.
-
I've been taking paracetamol for the past two days trying to lift my head ache.
Heck I moaned it was cold and now I'm moaning it's too hot ;D
Honeyb

-
That heavy head-ache inducing heat isn't natural for us Brits though. At least 2-day it's been cooler, with a little rain and a gale for 20-30 mins which I thought was going to carry off the roof from the camper :o - DH had to come in off a lake by rowing as the wind was too fierce to use the motor. Spent all day in various types of weather but the fish weren't having none of it ::)
Muggy this evening …….. but sky is clear and the moon looks FabULus!
-
Way too hot
and I only ever moan when it's hot, I never moan when it's cold....
-
Oh I do ………. likes a good moan I does ;D
-
Never happy are we. ;D
Woke to clear blue skies. I'm still cooking though. Just stripped bed & made up in spare room for my visitors who are coming this afternoon.
-
Cooking - why, in this weather :D
HOT, HOT, HOT .......
-
Cooking for tomorrow's barbie. Frankfurter & pasta salad, plus pastry cases for strawberry tarts.
I'm boiling. Kitchen like a furnace. Haar has come down so outside mice & cool. I keep nipping out for air. Feels like heaven. However, think sun trying to reappear so will get hot again.
-
Clouding up. Cooler in the shade. Steamy in the veg plot though so no weeding !
-
And instant steamed veg! ;D
-
Just looked at our overnight weather.....gales at about 40 mph :o
Hope they don't arrive and wreck my garden. :(
Honeybun

-
The Midlands has a severe weather warning, well of course it has: Wimbledon not far away as the crow flies, F1 Circus in Northants, various open air concernts, fetes, parties ………. it's Summer ::)
Right now it's steamy - good idea for the veg. DH did pick some new spuds to go with the steak bought from our local butcher this morning :-*
-
I've just been to the station to pick up my youngest son and the lightning is flashing really brightly. Had to sit in the car, waiting, with my eyes closed. I hate it! I told him I wouldn't do it for just anyone ;D

Thunder & lightning with heavy rain last night.
Kept me awake, OH slept through it ::)

HB I think you've got what we had last night.
Isn't it good to share........... ::)
-
I can think of nicer things to share Limpy ;D
I feel really sorry for the hundreds of people in the country park next to me. There is a music festival on this weekend and they must be miserable in all this rain which is currently coming in sideways :o
Honeyb

-
That's such a shame honeyb when so much time and effort goes into arranging this sort of thing. Hopefully it will brighten up? Sunshine here but thunder rumbling away in the distance. We have a music festival too just down the road but I don't think our weather is meant to be too bad. Still far too hot!!
Taz x :D
-
It's weird with all this heat - having had a stinker of a cold for the last week+, I've hardly been aware of it. Hubby's had to tell me more than once that it's hot!
-
Storms over-night initially cleared the air but it's humid again. The heat is causing the duck weed on the ponds to double every hour so needs clearing daily in order to allow the fish to breath.
-
Had light drizzle this morning with strong wind. (Washing put out at 9.45 dry by 1 ish)
This afternoon sunny & windy (towel wash pegged out at 1.30 now pretty much dry)

Towels blowing hard.

Bit late Honeybun ?
Bright sunshine now.

Torrential rain, thunder & lightning. Very bad flooding just up the road from us.
-
:o ……….. haven't seen the News at all 2-day.
-
Dry & pleasant first thing followed by hail and heavy rain.
-
Bright sunshine eventually broke through the cloud cover - it was cool enough to do lots of weeding on the patio mid-morning ……. lots more to do!
-
Sunny first thing, but mainly cloudy now. Still fairly warm though.
-
Sunny now, after the hail and pestilence of late morning
-
Oh my what a day! Two hour thunderstorm with solid water falling from above. So much flooding. A road just up from us has collapsed. Mad drivers too.

Ooooo - That doesn't look at all relaxing CG :o
Hope things get drier soon.

Actually: heavy fine drizzle first thing - I remembered as I was dropping off to sleep ::)
Sunny most of the day
-
It was horrendous, but all is now calm. Phew! Chilly tomorrow though.
-
Summer hasn't arrived up North then ::) - flash flooding is the most dangerous.
Blustery this evening. 21 in the car. Think that I can live with 21 ;)

We got a few days of "summer." Blooming chilly today, so much so heating kicked in first thing.

Grey, raining and chilly - great.......
Supposed to be warmer again from tomorrow

Thankfully Limpy. Today it's fresh after yesterday's storm.

Had my leecy blanket on all night 'cos my feets were/are cold :-\
April drizzle today so towels will get a heavenly wash ::)

Warm, the sun pops out every now and again but not for long.

4/5 days of sunshine. Cooler nights. Have added another blanket on the bed and keep my socks on at night ;) - long fluffy white/pink ones ……..

Warm and very sunny in Windermere. Not what I was expecting so my walking trousers are rolled up to the knee - looking tres sexy!!

How great! That area is LOVELY in the :sunny: - busy with visitors up there?
Sun now pouring into the lounge :-*

Dull!

Apparently it was 34C in Paris today and on le Tour 35 at times. Means that the UK may well have thunderstorms in the night :o but it's been cool enough to do some weeding of our patio as well as sitting to watch the birds ;)

Coming down in torrents. :(

It was weeing down all night - that's because I watered the garden yesterday!! ::)
It is slowly drying out - hopefully I can get my washing out on the line by lunchtime. 8)

Totally agree. Sunny day = burns top of head (thanks to thinning hair!!), plus DH insists on putting the roof down so I have to wear a hat which reshapes any remote style my hair may have....

Thankfully, OH picked me up right from the door.

It's Bank Holiday in England so of course it is FOUL + MotoGP at Silverstone - pouring down since 10.30 a.m. …… >:(. It's also chilly, DH has put his thick slippers on. I have yet to find some slippers that I like :-\ ……
Forecast no better for 2-morrow.
-
Freezing! Winter jackets on last night. Dug out some winter jumpers. Good grief it's only beginning of September!
-
I've had the heating on for 2 evenings. Have felt cold nearly all today but that maybe anxiety. Need to find thicker jumpers ………. it's been dull, sunny, duller ….
-
We've had thick, black clouds almost all day, every day this August and lots of heavy showers. How I'd love to have a long,warm, blue skied summer.....
Now I'm back into my jumpers, thick socks and fur lined slipper boots and ready for the autumn. Still, every cloud has a silver lining.....these clothes hide most of the lumps and bumps ;)
-
I have had the heating on in the evenings. Plus the lleccy blanket most of the night. Plus lots of hot water in my bath.
Autumnal chill in the morning, need a cardy when eating breakyy by the ponds. Today the wind has been chilly even in the sunshine but fortunately no rain.
-
Temp was about 9 degrees & feels like was 5 degrees, so blooming cold. Thought it was just us oldies complaining until son appeared & said it was freezing.

Been a lovely day, warm and sunny. Now, oh my goodness it's really cold. Checked the greenhouse temp 4 degrees and my heating is on and my windows are closed.

Not sure the weather appreciates it's only supposed to be Autumn.
My heating comes on first thing, but we resisted putting it on later.
-
Haha Taz - I thought you might like the meteorological dates because you want it to be autumn already! However using these definitions we get to spring earlier ;D
I prefer the traditional view of the seasons which uses the equinoxes and solstices to mark the dates so these are approximately September 21st December 21st March 21st :) June 21st :) !!
So folks - it's not autumn yet whatever the weather :na: - even though the met office stats like to use whole months !!!!!!!!
Hurdity :) x
-
No - I hate the thought that in June I'm still only in Spring! I do pop to Avebury on some of the Solstice days as it's a great atmosphere but still don't understand how the longest day is the start of Summer and the shortest day is the start of Winter. I love the 21st June but really don't like the 21st December whereas, I suppose, you like the 21st December but not so keen on the 21st June! I guess it's only around three weeks difference. I think that I'll use both astronomical and meteorological that way I get the best of both worlds!
Taz x :na: :na:
-
Never sure why they do that, but hey ho. Technically it's still summer, though we seem to have missed that up here in the north east.
Still freezing, sun's out & feels like temperature is 9° Supposed to be getting warmer according to met office, however when you add in the wind chill here........... Seems to be all one season nowadays. Of course my requests to move to warmer climes has fallen on deaf ears. ::)

Cold,dull,miserable :(

Wow! Penny! Welcome back !
Taz x :sunny:
-
Lovely warmish day....now it's getting dark the temperature is falling rapidly.
It got down to 1 degree last night.
Don't care what anyone says.....in Scotland it's Autumn already.
Ladies in the south should remember seasons are a wee bit different up here. After all we are over 500 miles from London so...Autumn arrives earlier.
Ask any gardener.....Monty where are you ;D ;D

It's getting quite chilly at nights here too. I took washing in at teatime & it was very chilly & I'm further north than HB. Ah the nights are fair drawing in. ;D
-
It was autumnal at 6.00 a.m. :o - gentle sunshine with mist floating above the ground. Chilly too. Equinox fall on the 21st of the appropriate months ;)
Hate the nights pulling in and mornings being darker :'(
-
I love the nights drawing in and the darker mornings. I like to be up before it's light but in the summer it's just too early to do that. There's still a while to go though before it's dark still at 6.30.
Taz x
-
I just dress for the weather whatever it is as the seasons tend to be a bit less reliable nowadays. The date doesn't really matter to me as much as what the weather is doing. It can be cold in August and really hot in September or October and in our house we just adjust accordingly otherwise it is like saying you can't eat lunch because it is only 11.45 and not yet lunch time, even if you are ravenously hungry :)
-
Find it very depressing now the mornings are darker, had to use my torch for a 5.20am loo trip, bit awkward with crutches.......... ::)
Today it's dry and nicely bright.
OH is trying to take advantage of the dry and replace some guttering.
-
Warm and sunny :)
-
another lovely fresh start followed by warm :sunny:
Limpy - hop off ;) to a camping store and buy a head torch?
-
Quite nice out there for a change. :sunny:
-
It would be lovely to see this weather continue until C.mas Eve ;)
-
Limpy - hop off ;) to a camping store and buy a head torch?
Thanks CLKD - the torch I use has a hook on the back on it, which can be hung on a nightshirt.
It's sill a bit reluctant to stay put when used with crutches ::)
-
I don't wear a night shirt :-\ ;D - how about leaving the landing light on?
Getting dark now. >sigh< another nice day forecast for the morning!
-
I don't wear a night shirt :-\ ;D - how about leaving the landing light on?
Er - We sleep downstairs so no landing and there are 2 big steps to get up to the level where the loo is.
Then, across a big room then up another 4 steps. It would be too many lights to leave on, it'd disturb OH and possibly the owls as well ::)
-
How about those night lights that plug into sockets at floor level? One can buy some that flick on as you walk by ;)
-
A bucket required Limpy. ;D....not so far to walk.
Still daylight up here and after a lovely day the temperature is falling really quickly.
Certainly not summery in the evening any more.

Since May we haven't sat out in the evenings :-\ and I bought pretty solar lights for round the patio area so haven't enjoyed those. No longer know how many hogs are visiting :-\ ……….. don't see the bats. Heating on this evening . I've declared Winter ::)

Dusk creeps on

It was a lovely afternoon here in the early Autumn September sunshine... :lol:

Nice day here but a chill in the wind if you were in the shade.
Good outlook for a few days then a bit down hill up here.

By the end of the month Hb it will be Autumn whether you go by meteorological or astronomical settings.

Glad we didn't head off in the camper, it is *pouring* down with large drops the size of farthings :o - from a bright blue sky or from very dark clouds …… not cold but would be a bother putting up an awning or dashing to the toilet block!

Horrid!

April-like showers with knobs on :P

Heavy showers here. Youngest son is delayed in Paris due to a huge storm disrupting flights.Not sure if that's coming this way!
Taz x

:o - remind me, where's he headed?

There's been a twister across Northamptonshire :o apparently had it hit the ground it would have been classed as a tornado :o ……… :o
So pleased we stayed home.

:o - remind me, where's he headed?
He's on his way back to England. Still waiting - delayed 185 minutes now. He is really, really bored.
Taz x
-
Can't he people watch :D ::) …….. ETA?
-
He's been people watching since two this afternoon. He got there early as the trains from the town he was staying in didn't quite tie in well with the flight. It was supposed to take off at 6.00 our time landing at 7.15 and now it's scheduled for 9.15 our time landing at 10.30. Still I'm sure he had a nice few days .. in the rain.. in France.

Dropped him at uni last Monday and he took off for France on Wednesday. You're only young once! First lecture tomorrow I think.

What's he Reading? where does flying to and from France fit in?
Blustery! making our security lights go on, off, on, off …….. glad we have 3 layers of curtains :D

Sun is pouring through our lounge window ……

Lovely earlier, now thick black clouds.

Looks like we might get a good day today. Washer is on.

A lovely autumnal start to the day. Early sunshine with mist and now clearing to warm, bright morning, makes me think of the Keats poem we learnt at school- 'season of mists and mellow fruitfulness' etc.

Looks like a nice day here too ::)

Gorgeous! Know someone who is getting married today & she was panicking as ceremony is outdoors. Think she's safe enough.

Not too bad today. Chilly earlier, but has warmed up a bit since.
-
Equinox is really 21st ……….. 21 March, 21 December, 21 June ………. ::)
The equinoxes are not these dates - they are just an approximation and the traditional days that the seasons start.
From what I've read the autumn equinox is never 21st even though this is the traditional start of autumn - and it is either 22nd 23rd or 24th - and to do with the fact that the year is longer than 365 days and other astronomical reasons. The spring equinox can occur on March 20th (as it will in 2016)!
This year it was yesterday September 23rd - although most people think of the start of autumn as 21st (notwithstanding the met office date for weather stats discussed earlier in Sept preferred by some ::) 8) )
Today has been :sunny:

It's a bit chilly up our way, but weather has been beautiful. Usually getting blown into North Sea at this time of year. We have needed heating on, especially first thing. It was 2 degrees first thing today.

Bit better than yesterday which was dark, torrential rain with gale force winds.

Windy at the moment. Quite frankly, I'm wondering what the winter will be like, as there is so much divided opinion around as to whether it's going to be mild or very cold. :-\
-
Hopefully won't be too cold, at least this side of the New Year. More often than not the worst weather is after the New Year.
Windy out there tonight, to get worse tomorrow. Yippee! :-\
-
Calmed down now but due to crank up again soon.
There has been quite a lot of talk about our weather influences for this winter
" At the moment one primary global feature that continues to dominate the news is the development of a very strong El Nino within the tropical eastern Pacific. This event is indeed one of the strongest El Nino's in many years and is likely to have some impact on the weather across the UK and NW Europe in general through the winter period. There is a connection that El Nino's can lead to the UK experiencing a colder than average winter "
Just have to wait and see I guess.

Oh great - snow on it's way ;D. Seasonal then?
Anyone flooded :-\
-
Not flooded personally (if we get flooded at the top of our hill, look for Noah!!), but I work for a train operating company and we've got cancelled trains all over the network due to flooding - rails under water and land slides - and delays as trains have to run slowly if there's running water touching the ballast. It's not a good day to be travelling by train in the North of England :(
-
Each time we bought properties they have been on a hill ;D - there are some animals I wouldn't want in my Ark (off to start a thread ;) )

If local river ever gets up as far as ours, I'll need a plane rather than an ark. ;D

Woke up to a light dusting of snow. Round about roads are closed. Odd heavy snow shower passing through, but nothing as bad as predicted.

Now it's blue sky and bright sunshine 8)
-
Signs that Winter has arrived. Snow must have gone through earlier leaving mole heaps and clods with a dusting well into mid-morning. Clouder. Blustery. Blue sky ….
-
Sunny & bitterly cold now.
-
Clear sky. Ring round the moon, fine day 2-morrow ;)
-
Vile
-
Why?
Bright sunshine. Cold wind after deep frost. Blue skies - no dry though.
-
Freezing cold and non stop rain, windy, thick grey black cloud etc etc etc
-
Winter then ::). I fished out my mittens, gloves this morning, still need to find a warm hat! Thick socks sorted.
1st frost of Winter yesterday and it was thick again this morning. No wonder the birds have been busy :-*
-
Woke up to the first proper frost of the season - white and crispy everywhere - but it turned out to be a lovely sunny day with little or no wind. Still no gloves needed nor coat done up. Geraniums & fuschia still flowering in their post and not needing their covering yet :). Linsey you must be somewhere very north - it sounds miserable!

-
Can't get our chimney swept until mid January :o
-
Oh dear. You will just have to light fire anyway and see what happens. Good luck with that.
Linsey. X
-
Won't dare do that! too much soot up there. It saves having to clear the grate every morning ;)
-
Muggy. Grey. Drizzling. Birds flying backwards :o but no snow - yet!
-
Cold, cold, cold.
-
Very windy, 70 mph gusts, main roads blocked by large fallen trees.
No rain now thankfully though the valley bottom is flooded.
-
Just had heavy snow, but off again. More due later.
-
Very wild and windy all day but mild.
Hurdity x
-
Wild and windy. Getting a little chillier now. The sort of weather that makes me feel alive.
Taz x
-
I don't mind cold and bright (prefer warm & bright tho). It's grey and rain I don't like, and it's raining again today. >:(
-
Wet and windy, very much so.
-
Grey,wet and windy like the rest of the week :-\
-
Very Blustery Wind :o and chillier than yesterday :-\
Drizzly. Grey .
-
Bright sunshine, chilly.
-
Wet and windy but not really that cold. Not even bothering to go on my daily walk!
-
Grey, wet and very windy here. Have walked home from work, been out with the dog & have to go back to work for staff training soon. I have given up trying to look anywhere near decent today!
-
Warm. BLUSTERY!
Not like Appleby in Cumbria though :-\
-
Atrocious/appalling >:(
-
Wild but mild!!! Earlier looked at the webcam of our local coastal town and the waves breaking over the harbour wall were amazing. We were going to go down there tonight to see the storm and have a take-away, but hearing the gusts decided against venturing over the hills as perhaps a little foolhardy as there are lots of woods and trees on the way ::)
How are you all up in NW England and Scotland? The pictures on the news look very dramatic and scary with the force of water coming down the rivers and streets....
Hurdity x
-
Being in NE Scotland we missed the rain, or most if it anyway. Was very windy last night. Felt like the house might blow down. However, we were the lucky ones.
Pictures from Cumbria & Southern Scotland were awful.
-
A little quieter now ….
-
Red alert up here now. Not much wind, so far today, but it's pouring.
-
Proper frost this morning with ice on the car still at 9.15 am - first this year that's been like this! Winter is coming..... that reminded me of a round I have sung
Fly fly fly
The leaves are leaving the branch
Cold are the winds
Winter is coming
Hurdity :) x
-
Blowing a hooley up here.
-
Blue sky
Sunshine
Calm
Colder as the week goes on
-
In south east Scotland it's been wild, wet and windy - oh, and daaark..........yeuch! Glad to have my extra-strong bright yellow sea-farer's mac thing that I bought in Honfleur eleven years ago. Nothing gets through it. Okay, I look and feel like a supermarket trolley attendant in it, but it's brilliant.
-
Horrid, horrid, scary gale force winds again
-
I remember in my teenage years having a bright yellow PVC coat. It was all the rage back then. Likewise nothing got through it. Was just thinking about it the other day. I wore it to death!

-
It's blowing hard again! I'm sure this wasn't forecast :-\ - if we didn't have double glazing my camillia would be inside the lounge :o ;D
Nowt got through PVC! Did your have a hood, mine did ………..
-
No hood on mine CLKD, so relied on brolly. :)
-
We, wet, wet. What else?... it's Wales. In Wales it just rains and rains, even all summer.
-
Blue sky and frosty, just how winter should be :)
-
Thick with ...... frost.
-
Wet,grey and miserable. :(
Give me freezing cold bright blue skies any day 8)
-
Dull. Dull. Dull ……….
-
Frost has never lifted all day.
-
Very wet.
-
No wind at all but chilly, grey and drizzling all day.
-
Still quite mild here. we get so hot sitting around that we have to turn heating off for a few hours. It's drizzling though.
-
Cold. Quiet. Not enough sunshine to load my solar garden lights :-\
-
Dull but no rain.
-
Grey and dull :-\
-
Bleugh! :(
-
Not raining or windy - Yaayyyyyyyyy :cancan:
-
Cold, grey and wintry. I'm looking at a very high, bare tree with an abandoned magpies' nest right at the top. Makes it look even wintrier.
-
Dull. Cold. Dour …………… :'(
-
Ok - It's grey, dismal and drizzling now.
But, there were a few hours this morning when it wasn't miserable.
I prefer to dwell on that brief period of what passes for happiness.................... ::)
-
Still bleugh, although the sun did try to put in an appearance earlier.
-
Dull. Dull. Dull
-
Horrid - Raining with gale force winds.
There's a brief respite on Wednesday but it all starts again on Thursday :-\
Really fed up with it now.
But having said that, at least we've not been flooded so things could be worse.
-
Mild but dull. Rain has finally gone off.
-
Very mild - not at all seasonal. OH has been out this morning in a T-shirt. We're only having the heating on for a few hours in the evening.
Weather is adding to the fact that I'm not feeling at all Christmassy - and not looking forward to getting hot n sweaty stuck in the kitchen for hours on Christmas Day, windows open.
Oh to be in a snowy winterland country - as depicted on Christmas cards.
baa humbug!
-
Wet but mild, two flies in the kitchen this morning and when we went visiting friends on wed, blossom on some of the trees !
-
Some of my bulbs are coming up!
-
Apparently last night was the warmest Dec night on record :o and we saw 3 daffs in full flower this morning :o ……. :o
Sun shone as we drove to Bedfordshire ……… for a change the weather has been calm
-
My daffs still underground, but trees are showing signs of new buds. In fact some trees still haven't shed all their leaves. Guess one good thing is energy savings.
-
Chilllier
Heavy rain
No wind today
However: having watched the news and looked on the net about the rescue efforts by the Service Personnel and RNLI around York, Whalley, Leeds …….. and noting that on one Press photo of Whalley it states "Planning Permission Granted for 75 Homes" ………… :bang:
It will take months for these properties to be sorted :'(
-
Wet and warm
-
Anyone see the Very Dark Red Sky at Dawn :o
-
no, couldnt see much here this morning, as per.
Flood warnings here from tomorrow :(
-
Very windy & dull.
-
Been raining all day.
-
Poured all night and morning
Cold - 7 in the car
-
Listening to the wind howling outside. Not much chance of sleep tonight! :(
-
Slept soundly
Woke to a blue sky which is now grey
Birds have been busy so needs must!
-
Very mild and sunny this morning. Lots of people not even wearing coats.
-
Chilly
Very very calm - no movement in the trees or shrubs
-
Lots of flooding up here. Local river rising at rate of 6" per hour. We're high enough up fortunately.
-
Grey. Like a lid.
-
Dull. Chillly. Patches of blue sky occasionally.
-
Blue sky, what's that? ;D World appears to be 50 shades of grey up here.
-
Very pretty ………
-
More rain sigh
-
Keep it ;-)
-
Flood warnings in lower part of our area. Advising folk to evacuate this evening.
-
Now it's snowing. Oh it just gets better & better. 3 care homes evacuated. Electric being switched off soon. Been in touch with someone who's affected. They are being evacuated too. I was going to offer a bed for the night, but she hasn't got back to me. They are heading for local school. Never ever seen it this bad here.
-
Rain Rain Rain
-
quite nice here. 9c in the garden and weak sunshine but dry and still. Just opened the summerhouse to let some air in and all the bedroom windows are wide open. the air today is just gorgeous after an early ground frost.
-
Sharp frost
Bright sunshine from a blue sky
Not cold
Cubagirl - where are you situated that people need to be moved :-\
-
CLKD we were OK, but there are posh houses & flats down by the river which some builder thought would be good place to build. Even Duncan Bannatyne's Gym has been hit. Car park is flooded & staff are working hard to stop it getting into their swimming pool. Add to that the local sewage works has also got flooded, which is just a few hundred yards from the gym. Even the though makes my stomach turn!
I've bought in bottled water just in case the water system suffers.
-
Add candles and hot water bottles ………….
Duller now. Had a nice walk along by the river and into town, sun was out, air brisk. Home now, feet up, watching grey clouds ::)
-
Poured all night - patio stands in water which is gradually draining away. Found out there's a hole in my shoe when feeding the birds - feeders on the patio >:( ::)
Bright sunshine after showers - now dull, dull, dull - but not as cold!
-
Very wet.
-
Raining again.
Cubagirl - any more flooding?
-
Not yet CLKD, but more rain over next few days. Poor folk who were affected, not catching a break at all!
-
Currently listening to torrential rain pouring down. Locals really don't need this. Just been reading about local park rangers who have taken photos of some of the flooded areas along the river. Much restoration of footpaths etc will be required as everything washed away. Haybales have also been found floating & blocking parts along the way.
-
In Birmingham it is 3*C, park is waterlogged, hasn't rained today, dull with a bit of blue sky, but I'm not grumbling, we have got off lightly.
Son is in the army and has gone off to Germany today on exercise, they are heading for Bavaria where he tells me it is -11!
-
Balmy then FionaB? ;D
We woke to snow yesterday morning, once a year is fine by me. We went for a walk mid-morning by which time the top roads were clear but pavements still crunchy. By mid-afternoon thaw had set in and this morning very little left, mainly snow-people beginning to lean a bit ;D
Colder this evening.
-
Surprisingly, looking at the heavy drizzle, it's warmer - about 14 in our car this morning ::)
Any snow left anyone? Blustery here, apparently the 'edge' of the storms that hit the East of the US ….. without the snow. Oh for some sunshine :-\
-
Never had any snow up here. Raining :catscratch: & :scottie: today. Really chilly too. 2°
-
I prefer frosty, white weather rather than snow or rain at this time of year!
-
My Gt Uncle rang from Paisley this morning, since 7.00 a.m. it had snowed; rained; blown a gale with hail in it; some sunshine ::)
Here, it's been :sunny: all day .
-
4 seasons in one day. :)
Further north it was just bitterly cold. No snow, no rain, just brrrrrrr.
-
Yesterday sunny but really cold. Today warmer but very wet.
-
Grey and drizzly >:(
-
Calm & chilly. Henry on his way. Hubby hates the fact they've named the storms as it makes it more noticeable. ;D I said a storm's a storm named or not. Naming them was so they could make people more aware.
-
After a lovely 'doing' day this morning dawned with heavy drizzle >:( - so am sorting out boxes ready to put into auctions, getting 'rid'! Sun keeps trying ::)
-
Henry starting to blow a storm. Here was me thinking Henry was only good for sucking. ;D
-
:-X I had to think about that one ;D
Blustery
Grey/blue skies
No rain yet
Chilly - that's seasonal then?
-
;D
-
It is blowing a hooley here at the moment. Been the same all day with driving wind and rain! Joy!
Bramble
-
Pretty wild! I've just driven back round Arthur's Seat and it didn't seem too bad there, but now I'm back, it sounds wilder. Don't like wind. When our daughter was very little, she used to say, "Don't like the hoo-ey wind!" Me neither.
-
Amazing sky up here tonight. It was stunning. Rainbow clouds, mother of pearl clouds & one of the most amazing sunsets we've ever seen anywhere. Deep red. Maybe you will see from this.
https://www.eveningexpress.co.uk/fp/news/local/reader-pictures-of-this-evenings-rainbow-coloured-clouds-in-the-north-east1/
Very blowy now, but not horrendously so.
-
Think quite a few places had skies like that last night, bit scary :o. Henry blew a gale here, glad it's calmed down now - just been getting all the recycling picked up from garden, bin blew over scattering it everywhere ::)
-
Saw pictures from various parts of country lily. Was pretty spectacular though.
Still quite windy today with heavy showers.
-
Blue skies. Sudden blustery gusts but calmer now.
Dark sky
-
Heavy rain at 8.30 so we changed our minds about going out and about
Black clouds scudding by ::)
Icy wind!
-
Unbelievably wild wild wet pouring rain and very windy here in the SW - it's been dark all day and there is a river of muddy water running down our lane almost reaching to the gate of our front garden! There was a power cut in the night. I presume this is normal for Scotland from what I've been seeing on the news!!
Hurdity x
-
Huge blusts of wind howling round the property ……..
-
Been raining all day. ☔️☔️☔️
-
Rubbish my friend lives in chalais in France and the suns out there and she keeps sending me pics😠🌞
-
Beautiful sunshine but a chilly wind.
-
Oo-er Kate50 - I have a good friend also who lives in Chalais for half the year (summer months) and the other half in England!
We're having mixed sunshine and showers today and also a cold wind - before the next (silly-named) storm appears :)
Hurdity x
-
Bright sunshine after all night heavy rain followed by grey skies, cold air and heavy rain - Spring then?
-
Raining again.
-
I need some bloody sun 🌞
CBA today as my kids would say. Got house work to do and just can't be bothered to get out of bed. Slept better last night though. Hurdity we are going on hols in July in between chalais and cognac so will be seeing my friend would love to be living there now!
-
Really strong gales and torrential rain here. No thunder thank goodness as I hate it. My son had a brilliant (his words) storm early this morning and I've messaged him that he can keep it! The window cleaners have just arrived ;D
Taz x
-
The window cleaners have just arrived ;D

:rofl:
Today it's quite nice, though the clouds in the distance may ruin it later.
-
Blustery. Heavy gusts …….. all night. Air colder, birds busier on the feeders. A break in the rain mid-morning so we dashed to the shops. Fire glowing in the hearth. Rain lashing against the windows :sigh:

Sounds quite cosy :)
-
Sounds lovely to me too. It was my day off today and I really enjoyed just staying in and watching all the weather through the windows while I ate chocolate (birthday pressy) and read my book. I've felt so lazy!
Taz x
-
Sunny !!
-
Sunny on Thursday.
Very frosty with sunshine on Friday morning, changing to drizzle.
Sat. and Sun. nice enough to do lots of gardening
Rain over-night followed by bright sunshine - more gardening done this morning :) - air is much colder again though.
-
Chilly but sunny and spring-like.
-
Lovely sunny day in Lincolnshire washing out and dog walked :scottie:
-
Well - lovely and sunny so sat out in my vest top and it was freezing! Looked at the temp on the outside garage wall and it said 7 degrees! Hmm a bit early for :sunny: bathing although I've done the odd half hour here and there :)
Hurdity x
-
We have had 4 sunny days in a row ….. :-*, lovely in the car (which reads 7 air temp.) but chilly in the wind.
-
Snow showers all day. Not accumulating though.
-
Crikey ………… :o
Here it's been cold but blowy enough to dry a line of towels ;)
Dark now ;-)

Girls! I know this thread but cannot participate as not in the Uk, HOWEVER we are going to Tenbury Wells ( Worcestershire) on March 2 for 3 days. My daughter was accepted with scholarship at a close-by college and we are going to see the school, meet the principal etc. So is anyone near Tenbury Wells and can u tell me how is the weather looking , esp in the coming days? I guess umbrellas will be a must, but other than that? So many thanks! Will be very helpful!

Hello Milamam,
Congratulations to your daughter and have a lovely time. Here is the current weather forecast for Tenbury Wells (click on the 'Further ahead' part for next week's weather) :

-
You can participate …….. if only to say in Spain/France/Italy it is cold/wet/snowing ;)
Well done on the Scholarship! How exciting/scarey : :congrats:
2-day the weather began very frosty followed by bright sunshine from a blue sky :-*
-
Thank you!
-
Began bright sunshine - haven't needed a hat on but have worn one
Clouded up by mid-afternoon
Dull now, like it might snow :o
-
Quite pleasant. Cool but not freezing for a change.
-
Really cold and dull here - not liking this for end of Feb - but we never had a proper winter in Jan so guess it's coming now. Feels cold enough for snow but haven't seen any this winter here in SW - maybe the odd bit of sleet?
Hurdity x
-
In the middle of a squally rain/hailstorm at the moment.
-
Forecast was for ice and snow. we got rain and hail, a little sleet earlier now dry, sunny and very cold.
-
They are saying it will snow here. It's not cold enough, so reckon it'll be more rain.
-
Here in the Midlands it's sleeting with intermittent blue skies and the air is really cold!
-
Temperature plummeted from earlier. We have a blizzard!
-
bitter, biting wind with freezing rain spotting in the wind, and it looked fine and sunny when the dog and I started out. Neither of us enjoyed the walk :(
-
Wet and cold.
-
Very windy last night but lighter today. Bright sunshine. :sunny:
-
Snow from yesterday has mostly melted. Today :sunny:
-
AWFUL across the UK apparently :-\ - our patio stands in water (as usual) so it must have poured all night. Puddles around the garden where there aren't usually ……….. a sparrow hawk flew across the garden into a tree before having a Very Good Shake :D. At least I won't need to fill up the water bowls for the birds to bathe in ……...
-
What a difference a day makes :sunny:
-
Bleugh here.
-
:sunny:
moon is on it's back, fine day tomorrow :-*
-
Huh! that's an Old Wives Tale then :(
Grey sky - like it might snow
Very cold
-
Quite cold, grey and a bit foggy here.
-
This week has been alternate days of very warm :sunny: - lovely enough to eat lunch by the ponds - and freezing cold winds >:( ……. grey drizzle here, birds are busy so probably a cold spell on it's way? Snow for Easter ;D
-
Been so dull all week. Occasional glimpses of sun & showers. More of the same here next week. Yippee! :-\
-
It's freezing here - plunged back into winter - and it's spring in two days! So dull and grey - and I was sitting in the sun a few days ago .... Boo....
Hurdity x
-
It's been very grey and cool today.
Cold at night (-1 last night).
Thankfully - it's calm, no wind at all.

I'm sure it will be warmer soon Hurdity. In the meantime I'm enjoying looking out of the window pretending it's November and Winter's still to come. lol.
Taz x :sunny: :sunny: :sunny:
-
First day of spring today, sorry Taz. ;D We have :sunny:
-
:lol:
Humph - yes I hadn't realised the equinox was today as I hadn't looked it up so going on the standardised 21st! So even worse that it is still b*** cold and dull today.
Taz - you don't get daffodils in November :na: but I don't expect you can see these!!!!
Hurdity x
-
21st is the First day of Spring!
I've been outside gardening, occasionally the sun comes out and is right warm :-). Pouring through the lounge window.
-
Dull,cold :(
Won't get me in the garden yet. ;D
-
21st is the First day of Spring!
Google thinks today (20th) is the 1st day of spring so it must be true ::)
Today is the vernal equinox which apparently is the 1st day................................
Today the weather has been benign.
Dry, no wind or rain.
-
Been sunny here in patches ;)
-
GOOGLE doodles are great aren't they ;D
-
Blowing a gale right now down here on the south coast....scary.
-
Bright, sunny, bit cloudy, breezy. :)
-
Never heard a thing! One of our garden cloches moved across the garden and almost back into position, washing is pegged tightly onto the line or it will end up in Oxford ;D.
Bright sunshine. Blue sky. Not cold.
-
I have jumeprs to fetch in ……… the wind has dropped a lot so they ought to still be pegged on ;D
-
Cazikins, I think you've had some of the strongest gusts on the south coast!
S x
Oh we did Sparkle. I hardly got any sleep, it really started to kick off at about 1am & didn't ease off till 7am. We have relatives on holiday on the I.O.W. in a caravan. They said their caravan was rocking all night ::) ::). Anyway back to normal now.
-
Another line of washing blowing but not as hard as yesterday.
Anyone suffer damage in the Storm? apparently Norfolk had it badly :-\ - a large dinosaur thingy fell over :o and several Country Shows were closed to the Public. Danger with Zoos of course is, if a tree falls into or out of an enclosure, critters could climb out ;D.
Dull. Not cold. Grey sky.
Was that due to the wind though Cazikins :-X
-
Probably some type of wind was involved CLKD ;D ;D ;D
No damage as such in our garden - apart from the dustbin falling over & dancing around on the patio, which is just outside our bedroom window.
-
Oh great - bins usually 'go over' in the early hours ::)
I had to dash to get the sheets in earlier, as hail was falling :o and now it's drizzling hard.
-
Rain,rain and then some more rain :(
-
::) ……….
-
Awful >:( Got totally soaked beach walking with dogs this morning, they call it a 'shower' it lasted over an hour and threw it down along with the strong wind too. Its sunny now but still chilly.
-
Sunny at moment but not gonna last need to get the dogs out. Sadlynda would love to be walking on the beach what's your beach? I have neighbors either side who both have 2 dogs and they never go out for walks? ?
-
After 4 warmer days it began this morning with HEAVY rain, when it stopped the wind remained chilly. Sun is pouring into our lounge and the birds are busy on the feeders, a warning that a cold spell is on it's way!
-
Woke to sleet :o then it turned to heavy snow and was beginning to settle then lapsed. Hopefully the :sunny: will brighten the sky up soon! This is more than an April Shower :D
-
Snow, hail, sleet, rain & sunshine. Did same up here about a year ago.
-
Wet this morning but glorious sunshine now and very cold
-
Sleet and the odd snow flurry earlier today. Sunny now and crisp and chilly.
Taz x
-
Hailstones this afternoon - my washing was in, then out again - then in again, then out again.
Bought it in & put in on the clothes horse in the end. >:( >:(
-
Sharp frost 'first thing' in that the shed roofs and car screens were iced. Then the sun came out :)
-
There is the most fantastic sunset this evening :-* after 2 days of sunshine. Snow forecast though ::)
-
Beautiful today. They are saying London marathon might get hit with snow on Sunday. Eeks!
-
Reminds me of the last day of the Easter term when I was 17 - mid April and thick snow everywhere.
-
Blue sky and sunshine here in Northern Ireland 😀
-
So bright and sunny that when I came back from my walk to the shops, I had an orange and a glass of water, instead of a comfort coffee and cake, and now I feel revved up and ready to practise! All that vitamin D, you know....... ;)
-
Me too. Banana and water! Now for the housework! 😀
-
Enjoying another sunny day, chilly wind though. Sun shows up the dust though. Fancy a trip to Scotland katiecurrantbun? ;D
-
Been nice again in Edinburgh, but with a cooler breeze than the last 2 days
-
I love Scotland but have an adequate supply of dust here thanks! 😜
-
Shame. ;D
-
Bright sunshine, some cloud cover, chilly evening
-
Been nice again in Edinburgh, but with a cooler breeze than the last 2 days

Some clouds, some sun, some rain & a bit chilly.

Blue skies with some white fluffy clouds and sunshine so far

Horrid. Cold with sleet showers.

Dry but chilly.
-
Dry. Colder. Good dry for laundry.
-
Chillier. Snow forecast for Sunday ::) [anyone running?]
CLKD - well, it's not Sunday but I've been thinking it was cold and I've just looked out of the window..............and it's snowing! :o
-
It keeps trying to snow here ::) - bright blue sky throwing large flakes at us.
-
White out conditions this morning, huge flakes. Then at lunchtime brilliant sunshine! Then thunder & lightning. Now sunny again. Talk about 4 seasons in one day!
-
A Journalist was interviewed outside Westminster this evening and there was a thunderstorm going on around her :o
-
Baltic here
-
Started off with a sharp frost, I was up at 6.00 and it was here then. Followed by a thaw and now :sunny: from a blue sky. Rain forecast though :sigh:
-
Bright but cold
-
Trying to snow!
-
Hope it doesn't succeed ;)
-
It didn't ::) - yet ;D
-
We had a water spout off the coast yesterday. Today, it's been heavy hail/rain showers. Wind has eased though.
-
Did you see it?
Sun is pouring into our lounge now ::)
-
Supposed to be warming up during the week ::)
After a grey start it's drizzling hard now :-\
At this rate it will be dark earlier later
-
Sunshine after rain
-
Sunshine! Odd passing light shower, but much warmer than last week. As for water spout CLKD, no didn't see it, just picture in paper.
-
We have watched them off Hunstanton ……… picking up water as they travel land-wards then they kind of fizzle out before reaching the beach.
Bright :sunny: now. So Himself has gone off to his sport ……….. :'(
-
We have sunshine!🌞🌞🌞

:thankyou:

The last 3 days have been hot in the Midlands, :sweatdrop: and I have been driven indoors twice this afternoon but by the time I've sorted the papers and put TV on, the shower has passed by ::)
The car was 23 on Thursday, a little cooler yesterday and 20 this morning :o
-
11 in my car this morning..........
-
:o ….. clouding up now >sigh<
-
Glorious - 28 degrees in our garden planting out pots :sunny:
-
Crikey! I'm sitting in the shade with sparrows squabbling close by, dozing/reading/typing - birds singing. Cat mooching with ears and tail flicking at 'things' in the undergrowth ;D
-
Sunny & warm here today but with a breeze :o
-
It absolutely poured all morning but then by lunchtime the sky cleared and it's been very warm sun/cloud on and off - temp 23 in the shade! Been doing some gardening :)

Believe it when I see it. 😂 If it reaches up here we'll be lucky. Daughter will be happy though, she's been complaining about how chilly it is in the Midlands. Heck I had my heating on for an hour last night, it was so cold.
-
Rain, thunder, more rain.

Pitter, patter raindrops....... :whist:

Dull but dry. Sun has just decided to come out.

After a lovely bright morning: I was on our patio in hot sunshine and decided to come in to the cool, walked round the side of the house to confront a BLACK cloud with an edge to it :-\ which is now scurrying towards the house :o
-
Lovely when sun out, cold when in!! At least dry no no downpours here!!
-
Washing on the line
I'm watching le Tour out of 1 eye, the black cloud from the other ::)
Chilly air unless directly in the :sunny:
-
Multitasking then clkd?
-
Of course ;D - that cloud went over without emptying itself ….
-
Very observant, you do not miss a thing do you!!! ;D
-
I thought for one horrible moment that it was thundering again - turned out to be next doors wheelie bin going up the passage between the houses - phew ;D
-
I took delivery of new tumble dryer today as I wore last one out due to so much rain.
So what have we got today? :sunny: Typical! ;D

Hot weather is back!!

Drizzle.

Tumble dryer working well today! ;D

The rain has stopped!!!!

Inside. Watching MotoGP and le Tour so of course, it's hot outside ::)
-
Hot here! Fans are on!!
-
16° very dull! :(
Update it's raining! :( :( :(
-
Sunshine today!
-
It's been around 30 degrees for much of the day - but not a lot of sunshine. Dark thundery clouds loomed for a while but not a drop of rain - which is desperately needed - our garden is drying up!
Hurdity x
-
Hot and humid 😍
-
26.5 degrees in the sitting room, having to keep the dog indoors as far too hot in the garden. Difficult to do much without panting and sweating (me and the dog)
Supposed to go cooler from Thursday.
-
Toooooo Hot.
32.9 degrees :sweatdrop:
-
25° but storm clouds are forming :(
-
Baking hot here!!!
-
Baking here too. Fans are going full pelt.
-
33 degrees, kill me!! :hotflash:
-
Same here >:(
-
Hot,hot,hot :hotflash:
-
Help! I'm melting.
-
That just reminded me of the witch in "The Wizard of Oz"
"I'm melting, melting" ;D
-
34 degrees here!!! Melting away!!
-
I have now got to leave my air-conditioned office to walk to the station in the baking heat .... to then spend an hour on a train that should have air-conditioning (so has only 4 tiny windows that can be opened in each carriage), but the air-con almost never works. I am usually beyond hot after 10 minutes - ready to cry after half an hour and fit for nothing by the time I get home. :-\
-
32 here in North West......reminds me of 1976......lovely 🌞
-
we got married in 1976 :)
-
Poor you Scampi. Hope you get home OK. It's buses which have heating on at full, which bug me. Opening windows, if they actually have any, is useless!

Scampi, hope you have read BJ's tips, might find something to help you. I am ready to cry too I am so hot. :'(
-
cubagirl - you've got the warm weather at last! I kept looking at the weather maps after the news and glad I didn't live in N Scotland (except I know it's lovely up there)!
Our temp was 32 this morning too - I wonder how hot the Londonders and those in the SE were? 34 Janice68 :o - you must be in SE?
Luckily we live in old stone cottage so provided we keep all the doors and windows mostly closed (bedroom window open a crack) it stays beautifully cool. So indoors it was more like 24/25 which felt so much better! Also wearing vest top and very short shorts, hair tied back - to keep cool. Didn't stop me sitting out in it for 3/4 hour this morning and same this afternoon (without sunscreen) - after all one has one's vit D to think of!

Hazy, blowy, cooler and feels like rain coming. :)

As cubagirl says, it's nice and cool here, now. :)
-
It's still stifling here. Not quite as hot in the classroom today. Only 31 degrees as opposed to 33 yesterday!
Taz x :)
-
Grey all day and a few spots of rain - hardly enough to wet the ground though. We really do need some - it doesn't seem to have rained properly for days....no doubt when it comes it will be torrential.:) We never had any of those thunderstorms at all and it's still pretty muggy here.
Hurdity x

Sounds like me!! :meltdown:
-
We had torrential rain earlier, but think it's to stay dry tonight.
-
:sunny: here, heavy drizzle on Le Tour :-\ …… the most crucial day of the 3 weeks …….
Too hot for me outside so sat in the shade most of the morning, washing on the line blowing gently. 1 barrel of rain water left to use for the garden :o
-
Humid - as I found out when I stopped practising at church and wiped my forehead, which was wet! ::)
-
Pleasantly warm.
-
Warm, but no sun.
-
Sunny and warm and definitely cooler than it has been!!
-
Hot! Well it's cooling down now but I've been inside all day. I am pleased though that you summer people have got some warmth and, hopefully, some :sunny: :sunny: :sunny:

;D ;D ;D
Don't worry Taz, it'll soon be your time of year.
-
Thanks CG. I hope it's a bit more wintery than last year although it was good to save on the heating!

-
Cool now. Sitting on the patio thinking about finding a jumper ;D
-
IT was 29c here around lunchtime and I was boiling hot and my sunglasses kept slipping off my nose.
We had a walk at the seaside where there was a little bit of breeze but sadly on our coast today a man drowned and another is critically ill in hospital and two others were able to get themselves to the shore. We were looking at people in the sea and despite coastguards being there and having put HUGE bright signs down on the shoreline people were ignoring them. The signs instructed people to only swim between the red/yellow flags but people were much further away.
-
Was that the death mentioned on the news this evening, man got caught in a rip tide? Very sad when that happens. Happened to partner of future DIL's friend in Australia.
-
People don't understand rip tides, apparently one goes with the flow as it burns itself out eventually. What happens is people naturally panic and try to swim against it to the shore. The North Norfolk Coast can be lethal, particularly the sudden return of tide around the sand dunes opposite Wells Next to Sea ……… also along that coast is a 'shelf' so one can be wading and suddenly disappear over the edge.
My Dad was the last person off Heacham Beach B4 the 1952 floods - he had been wild fowling on the Marshes which he knew well, noticed that the air and wind changed, he left everything behind except his shot gun and ran.
-
Hot again but I've done lots outside 8)
-
Dull, but warm.
-
Dull but the odd break of sunshine here certainly more cooler and breezier too!!
-
Muggy. Drizzling.
-
less hot but certainly not cool by any stretch of the imagination. Tolerable though, can get things done now :)
-
So much cooler now. Outbreaks of sunshine here.
-
Cooler today. Just think: in 5 months time :-X ;) ………….
-
better, much better :)
-
…… in 5 month's time ::) :P
Muggy. Black clouds. Blue sky. Sun is fierce when it breaks out!
-
Cloudy day the odd break of sunshine here. So cool now!!

……… in 5 month's time :(
Muggy.

Taz x :cancan: :bouncing: :ola:

Drizzle overnight. Now bright sunshine from a cloudy sky.
-
Raining now!!

Alternating between a chilly wind and sun so hot I have to move into the shade ::)
-
Mixed.
-
Dry but dull.

Torrential rain now. :(
-

:)
-
At last some sunshine and dry!! Well at the moment that is!! Warmish too!!
-
Warm and sunny but very windy. Good drying day ;)
-
Warm but very windy down here.
-
About seventeen years ago, when we were living in Suffolk before moving back up north, I was giving a piano lesson one afternoon during a thunderstorm. Some lightening had caused a power cut and it had gone very dark outside. So it was also very dark inside and we could only just see as far as the music in front of her!
-
What no candles ;D - our piano had two holders, 1 on either side ……..
The day began bright, sunny, warm; stayed that way until 10 mins. ago when heavy drizzle drove me inside >:(
-
Hot. Warm. Now cloudy. Maybe will drizzle hard as it did 24 hours ago …….
-
Lovely sunshine. Cool in the shaded areas of our garden ……. Autumnal :sigh:
-
Beautiful here today! Am sitting in summerhouse with doors and windows wide open as its a bit too hot in the sunshine, even under the parasol. Plus I have a lovely big reclining chair in here, my radio, my knitting, a paperback and a pile of knitting mags and I am on my own .... Absolute bliss!!! :)
-
What! :o no wine ;D
-
Or chocolate ! ;D
-
;D
-
What! :o no wine ;D
I don't drink !
-
Or chocolate ! ;D
I do love chocolate though but I am doing slimming world at the moment. I did however give in to a small slice of iced lemon cake which daughter came home with. :)
-
We soon get to food don't we ::)
Windier and cloudier than forecast >:(
-
Yes but thankfully cooler ! ::)
-
How is it now? Sun is out, blustery wind, blue sky …….. too hot on our patio >:(
-
Yes really sunny and hot now ,although the wind is very gusty its warm wind !
-
After it being very hot yesterday, wind this morning is chilly enough to need a jumper when outside :sigh:. Autumn has arrived :'(
-
Sunny and warm still - but very windy!
Hurdity x :)
-
They are saying warmer weather at the weekend!!!
Sunny here and cooler!!
-
Another heatwave next week. Must dust the fan.
-
Lovely Autumnal weather, chilly start then the sun was warm until the wind blew ::)
-
Hot and heavy - mostly sunny and warm still - we desperately need some rain as the garden is dry as a bone. Has been intermittently cloudy and quite windy but this has now eased. Yes I hear we're having another Spanish plume next week - will be uncomfy at night!
Hurdity x
-
Littleminnie ;D
Doubt we'll need one up beside us. ::)
-
The garden needs a good soak :sigh: warmer weather is forecast ::)
-
My runner beans & tomatoes need a good drop of rain - it will save me having to water them every day.
Heatwave down here next week apparently.
-
Our toms haven't grown an inch! They are stuck at 5" tall ……. beans are OK as there's enough dew in that part of the garden to keep them going. Some overnight rain would be very welcome!
-
My tommies are big but green - runners are bootiful but drying up now. We usually get a second lot come in September. I have frozen some of them as they all came at once - hopefully have some with our Christmas dinner.
-
Bootiful - yep. We cook a lot at a time then cool them, make up a garlic oil dressing and eat them cold - delicious ;)
-
"passes the plate" ;)
-
Sorry all gone ;D
-
You're just so greedy ;D ;D
Do you want one of my green tomatoes?
-
Morning: no thanks - don't like tomatoes much ::)
Drizzling - hard 8)
-
Sun sun sun and a few clouds on the horizon - well not exactly the horizon but I can just see them through the oak trees up the road...
Taz x

No sun here!! Cloudy!!

Lol. The weather.

Sunny with a chilly wind.

Another scorcher! Not a cloud all day.... bit of a breeze which was nice.
Garden (flowers and veg) is very very dry - but the grass is not yet parched.

Wall to wall Sunshine :)

Same here and another lovely sunset :-*
-
Very warm day hot flushes not helping!!!
-
Beautifully hot and sunny this morning in another cloudless sky - but around 2.30 it began to cloud over, got very dark and we have had a few thunderclaps, a few drops of rain (I mean just a few), which has now stopped. Desperately need a downpour for the garden!
Hurdity x
-
:sunny: + :sweatdrop: - rain forecast
-
Warm day!! Where's the rain which was forecast for today? Anyway sunshine galore here!! :-X :sweatdrop:
-
Dull & clammy!
-
☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️. 🌧🌧🌧. Tomorrow
-
Cooler - in about an hour it will be 'right' ::)
-
Wet!!
-
Rained all day, stopped 30 minutes ago.
-
Drizzly and grey...........the sort of weather I love when we visit the Highlands and the hills are half-shrouded in mist. It's that evocative mixture of greys, greens and browns that you see and the smells it brings out of wet grass, peat and sometimes even a smokery, if you're lucky. If I can't make it to the Highlands, this weather reminds me of them..... :)
-
Grey!
-
Grey and drizzly with sunny spells and a bit of a breeze - an absolute delight! :)
-
Sunny and blustery after a wild wild night which woke us up by banging the windows! The earth in the garden now looks damp for the first time for weeks :)
Sorry for all those folks at festivals this weekend (including our middle son, and also our neighbours) - of which there are several! Hope all the tents stayed put...
Hurdity x
-
Wonderful; sunny, showery and very blustery. Keep thinking I'm on The Lizard! :)

31C , 8 pm and it`s winter here!! :o
Where's "here", Menomale, if you don't mind me asking? Australia or New Zealand, or somewhere southern hemisphere?
-
Menomale is in Brazil dulciana.
-
18° in Aberdeen. Pleasantly warm.
-
29 degrees in London. Horribly hot!! :worm:
-
That's hot! :sweatdrop:

Afternoon Menomale, hot over there is it?
-
Too hot to do anything
-
It topped 31C here today but although still very hot, it's clouded over and looks like it will rain later. Lovely cool day tomorrow please!!

Menomale is in Brazil dulciana.

Thank you Cazikins, I was sleeping (or trying to)! Good morning from here ladies!
Thanks Cazikins - and sorry to wake you (if I did), Menomale!
-
18° in Aberdeen. Pleasantly warm.
Fairly much like that in Edinburgh, CG.
-
Rain in Australia ? ::) - do you collect it in barrels?
:sweatdrop: :sweatdrop: :sunny: until 4.30 when cloud dropped the air temp suddenly >phew< then it drizzled.
-
Heck never realised it got quite so chilly in Australia. I thought coldest it got was mid teens. Suppose it depends on how far south you are. My niece is in NSW, out in the sticks.
-
We've got grey-lid weather again, today.
-
Bright white cloud but it's burning hot. Most unpleasant! Feels like we need a storm to clear the air.
-
Grey and drizzling!!
-
Bright sunshine after very heavy rain in the night. Then it became very muggy ……. with lighter showers.
My friend in Brisbane complains that she feels chilly when temps drop to 24C - I tell her we wish it got to 24 occasionally ;D
-
Cold here. Got a fleece on!
-
What! The sun came out suddenly at 11.30 and I almost melted :sigh: ……… found shops then that were air-conditioned …..
-
Only 12° up here in the North-East. Feel free to share the warmth CLKD. ;D
-
HUFFFFF - blowing hard in your direction ::). Socks on yet ? ;)
-
Yep socks on! Local weather promises warmer air tomorrow. Keep puffing CLKD. ;D
-
>big sigh< - out of puff now, may be needs a dragon?
I had the electric blanket on last week in the night though
-
;D
-
Going to be a sorcher again :sigh: :sweat drop: already
-
Got home 2 hours ago in a very heavy rain storm, had to sit in the car and read the papers for 20 mins. ::) - it has thundered intermittently since, now the TV reception is poor ……… drizzling hard so my idea that it was going to be hot went out the window!
-
…… black with 2 sugars!!! the sky is every shade of grey you can imagine! Thunder seems to have moved over: WRONG, :P that was a cracker ………
-
Oh, we've had the blue skies, very intense heat followed by thunder ……… it made me very ill, I was almost on my knees by Wed. :sigh: it also gets humid here - is it the same in Brazil?
-
Raining in Scarborough
-
We just had overhead thunder so loud DH nearly fell off his ladder, rain so torrential the cars were causing tidal waves and our garden was flooded. Settled down to a steady downpour now and the thunder sounds like my tummy rumbling.
-
Finally a cessation - the sky remains dark grey and the drizzle is lighter ……. not a lot cooler though ::)
-
we can see our patio again. the dog won't go out, too waterlogged for him.
-
The storms seem to have gone to the right and to the left of us. Lots of really gloomy and murky weather but no rain.
Taz x
-
Very wet and miserable. Autumn is coming Taz. :(
-
Yes - I know - but I didn't like to mention it...
Taz x ;D
-
:-X - it'll be C.mas soon >:(
Can't see what the weather is doing, it's dark :sigh:
-
Xmas can't wait!! Not!!
Been dry and cloudy no rain yet!!!
Do you Like Autumn then Taz2?
-
Taz is not a Summer person ::)
-
I get it!!! ::)
-
Rain!!!(don't like this weather) :(
-
Been a bit of a mix today. Cloud, some sun, some rain. Only good thing, it's not been cold.
-
Same here. After dreadful weather across the Midlands yesterday, the blue sky was a relief, until the sun got too warm for me. The next person that suggests 'enjoy it, we don't see the sunshine that often' will get a :kick: >:(. The intense heat makes me ill :bang: …….. I love to see it but 4 me it's a waste of time as I can't do anything except watch TV ……
Hopefully it will be Autumnal - bright skies, warm sunshine, shade and a breeze.
-
……… they mostly survive though? Do they not congregate in the day and then wander home at dusk? That's what happened in an Italian town my friend lived in …….. she was really worried until she took to following a few 'home' ::). I think that cats are more likely to jump up out of puddles than a dog would think to do …….
32 is HOT, way too much for me and I expect humidity there too?
-
It's brightened up in Cheshire, woo hoo! Time to go out :D
-
Cloudy, where's the sun gone? They promised us :sunny:
-
Clear blue sky in North West :)
-
Hot and sunny and a very pleasant 24C in my garden. Lunching outside. :)

We sat on our patio earlier, after dark, until clouds covered the stars ……… quite mild. Everything is still.

Muggy. Warm. Drizzling ……..

Been very grey all day but so hot !!!!! hoping it cools down a little before bedtime as the last last couple of nights have been very warm.

Dull, cloudy and muggy.

Even the washing stayed damp! >:(

Very damp!!

Trouble is stuff that can't be tumble dried is taking an age to dry on the clothes horse!

I know it's a pain I've got washing everywhere at the moment as I can't put it in my tumble and my tumble was on all afternoon!!
Janx

I think we should be ok tomorrow Jan, its supposed to be hot and sunny I believe. Are you in the south east?

Thats good to hear Sparkle!! Yep in good old southeast!!
-
IT has been boiling here today. It was on 30c at lunchtime and it's now almost 10 pm and the garden thermometer is on 21c INcredible!
-
It was so muggy here that everything dried :o
I bought myself a small airer from ???? can't remember :-\ for smalls which frees up the larger airer for towels to finish off. The boiler is in the utility room which helps. Never needed a tumble dryer-thingy ::)
-
Still cloudy,dull and muggy here!!
Maybe later with the sunshine Sparkle!! Hope so anyway need to finish of the washing haha
-
Brightening up now lovely sunshine still very warm!! :sunny:

Earlier was blue skies, bright sunshine and blustery. Now dull with drizzle .

Good one Sparkle!! Even fits in really well with meno too;! Up half the night,early morning starts yep let carol do late afternoons get tired by then ;D

Neighbours' cat is curled up asleep on a thick cushion in our utility room. Their other cat remains outside, soaked :-\.

Dull start then the sun came out in a blue sky. Then it got dull/sunny/dull/sunny …… laundry dried OK though.

Indian Summer ??? we need as much sun as we can get, VitD and all that ;-)

Only 8.15 am and it's 20c already. Just off for an early appointment with the chiropractor.
-
:sunny: :sweatdrop: :-\
Driven indoors by the heat!
-
Here in the West country it is cool (17 deg) and we have had torrential downpours and violent thunderstorms rumbling around all morning, as well as forked lightning - setting the electricity on and off sporadically as it goes overhead. Sun has come out briefly but awaiting this elusive promised heat. Forecast was totally wrong for this area!

Apparently people in Cardiff are wading :o as the heavens have opened!

28 in Scarborough ...hot hot hot ☀️☀️☀️☀️

Very hot this morning but at lunchtime it went very dark and we have had torrential rain together with thunder and lightning. Rain has now stopped and it's starting to brighten up and I'm still drying out after my walk from the station home !

Oh my! 32 degrees and absolutely boiling!!!! :hotflash:
Just had a leisurely lunch on the river cowering under the biggest canopy available. No breeze and even fanning myself madly did nothing but move hot air around.
Role on Autumn!

Do you feel better over-all Ellie?

Beautiful. Just had lunch in the garden. Blue sky, lovely sunshine and the slightest of breezes and temp is 28c.
-
We had fog this morning but when it lifted it was hot!!!! Just starting to cool down now thank goodness as it was far too hot last night for sleeping.
-
Sun broke through thick fog mid-morning then the sky greyed up again, phew! but it was very warm all afternoon.
-
Rain most of the day! On a dry spell now with a few bright intervals.
-
Ditto
-
Poured from early morning until 12.30-ish then brightened a bit - typical weekend weather >:(
Warm

Another sunny day here :sunny: :sunny:
See it doesn't always rain in Wales much ;D
-
Went to London yesterday for the day and nearly died in the heat. We West Country folk aren't used to that! Was sitting on South Bank terrace drinking Pimms and Prosecco overlooking the river in the blazing sunshine, and could see the huge storm. Half the sky over London was black and away to the North and East - the rest was sunshine and clear like a dividing line or with very high wispy clouds. I presume the urban heat island effect prevented the storm breaking over London itself? I hear it's been bad - much like we had in the W Country on Tuesday. Here in the SW today it's been intermittently sunny/cloudy, but no rain and very very windy. Much cooler than of late too - although we haven't had temps in the 30's tho'

Cooler, cloudy but at least it's dry.

Fine day ! Went up Snowdon ;)
-
Oh : was the view from the train lovely :D
-
It was stunning ! ;)
-
We went up by train in 1974, I got out on my hands and knees as I HATE heights - once acclimatised the views were FabULus!
-
A couple of days ago it was so dull that the solar lights didn't come on at dusk, fortunately it's been sunny today so they are glowing again. Lovely enough to do more gardening!
-
Sunshine here!!
-
Dazned - my husband built one of the locomotives on the Snowden Mountain Railway!
-
Lovely now. 5.30 a.m. it was really bright as dawn arrived, followed by drizzle which forced me inside from the garden mid-morning. The sun has broken through ………..
-
Scampi my husband builds scale model trains too ;)
He now has a huge stone built workshop so they dont clutter up the house ! ;D
Weather glorious !
-
Dazned - although hubby does build models, he built one of the ACTUAL locos for the Snowdon Mountain Railway! I'm not quite sure whether it is No 11 or No 12, but I do know it's a Hunslet Engine Company diesel loco.
-
Lovely warm sunshine with Autumnal feel :)

Lovely sunshine again!!

Blue sky. HOT sunshine. Insects buzzing …...

Just had a lovely walk along the river: bright, sunny but quite breezy. Glad I put a blazer on!

Along 'beside' the river I hope :D. I've been in the garden though a walk was on my list ……..
-
Haha, it takes a pedant to know one! ;) x
-
I wouldn't like to think of you getting wet ;D

Brilliant blue sky but quite a gusty breeze. Feels Autumnal here today.

Brilliant sunshine. Blue sky. Turned cold at 5.30 …….
-
4 days where the temp reached 30c here in Majorca and this morning we had some rain. It was still very warm thought and just T shirts and shorts required. Lovely warm, dry afternoon but now it's drizzling again but that's OK as we are getting changed to go for dinner in the hotel so don't care what it does outside. :)
-
Enjoying your break Pennyfarthing?
Today it's been dull. Chilly wind but warm in the sunshine whilst walking.
-
Cold damp start to the day but come lunchtime the sun made an appearance and we had a warm sunny afternoon, it's now feeling cool and damp again.

Himself lags the pipes in the garage and side yard which doesn't get any sunshine - but not yet, hopefully!

Yesterday in my vest top and shorts in the lovely sunshine - still pretty warm today :sunny: :sunny:. Does not feel in the slightest bit autumnal yet - but I know we will be "in for it" when it comes - ie the gales and rain!

Drizzle first thing, then been a lovely sunny day here.

After heavy showers this morning sun out and quite warm.

Alternating rain and bright blue ,sunny sky

Heavy rain overnight, cleared by 11.30 and now bright sunshine. :)

Ooohh, exhilarating! 65 mile an hour gusts with wild seas..... :o

Foggy start but now beautifully clear with lots of sunshine and fluffy cloudy bits. There's a nip in the air so I have scarf and jacket on reading in the garden.

Dull, dull, dull - Himself is mooching ……… drizzling. Muggy. No dry for several days so laundry around the house or it remains outside on the line, dripping >:(
Fierce winds expected in the week :-\

Cold and very very wet! Can't even get out to empty the compost bin!. This has got to be a first cubagirl ??? x

My cousin did: moved lock, stock and barrel [what ever that means] and loves it. No cold or damp.

If it wasn't for children and grandchildren in the UK we prob would.

Must admit some days it does seem like a very good idea.

Brrrrrr. Went to meet hubby off train tonight. Due in at 7.01pm arrived 90 mins late. So off I went for nice coffee at local patisserie to warm up. Thankfully had on my big boots, scarf & gloves!
-
It snowed!! Here in the SW!!! Proper snow - at the top of the hill in the fields and gateways, white fields and roofs, all on the tops of cars - we had proper blizzards :) Lovely!!! Didn't last long though! Almost all melted by late afternoon...
Hurdity x
-
Lol. Was it how you remembered it Hurdity? ;D
-
Snow on top of Snowdon but not down here yet ;)
Very cold but bright,blue sky day.
-
Thick ice on the cars this morning. By 11.30 it had clouded up …….. no snow yet. Gales forecast.
-
Chilly! Don't mind the cold frosty days. Much better than rain & wind!
-
Bone chilling damp cold brrrrrr
-
We had two inches of rain and thunder and lightning in the night...I love dramatic weather - as long as everyone is safe :)
Hurdity x
-
Bright sunny day ,lovely line of washing dried. ;)
-
Dull yesterday. Lovely blue sky all day, got chillier as the day has gone by but at least dry enough for neighbours to move out and new ones to arrive.
Towels had a good blow and are now in. Sheet due to go out over-night.
-
Another bright sunny day,hope we don't pay for this later !! ;)
-
Get those Wellies ready and a shovel by the back door? then enjoy That View!
Clear sky tonight. Hopefully I can hang a woollen hand-pegged rug onto the line in the morning to get a blow …. then I will have to clear out the fluff from the washer ::)
-
Cold, crisp frosty day, beautiful sunshine all day......love days like this 😄👍🏼❄️
-
Thought yesterday was bad having to de ice the car in the cold.
But today I had to de ice the car in freezing fog fortunately as it as Saturday there was not too much traffic on the roads as I hate driving in fog. The fog was back on my drive home !!!!!!! and it's been really cold all day.
Dread to think what the weather will be doing tomorrow cann't believe this time last week the weather was high 20's and I was wearing shorts and a t.shirt.☹️
Lanzalover x
-
Cold,bright and sunny ! Lots of road gritters out tonight though !

Fresh and sharp this morning. Birds busy. Fresh water put out. Blue sky.
-
Frosty, cold but sunny and bright which I don't mind :)
Don't like dull, miserable days :(
-
Dreich!
-
3/4 days of sharp frosts with lovely sunsets, today dull and (how do you spell it) - dreich!
-
SNOW in Hiwaii ………. (sp) :o - no surfing today then.
-
Just saw pictures CLKD. Apparently not unusual on higher ground, but this was at much lower levels.
As for weather here, chilly & dull.
-
This heavy drizzle is making me feel down …….. :sigh:
-
Dry but dull, again!
-
POURING!
-
Glorious. We had plans yesterday which we changed over-night, ended up on Dunstable Downs for a walk in brilliant sunshine, really warm. Met lots of lovely dogs including a rottie who didn't want to go home ;D - always refuses to get into the owners' vehicle, well she got in for me :P ……… such a happy dog and so friendly. Also made a fuss of a flat coat retriever that I convinced myself had been abandoned, to Himself's relief, he hadn't been :sigh: …….. ::) - again a lot of fuss on both sides except Himself, who wandered off to look at the view ;D
Home now, expect there will be a lovely sunset later.
-
I like flat coated retrievers too, my ex boss use to have them & they were allowed into our office - so well behaved too.
Beautiful day here with sun much of the day.
-
Lovely bright sunshine for 3 hours, now it's dull again :sigh:
Fine drizzle again :-\
-
Fortunately fine enough for travelling safely. Woke to sharp frost this morning from a blue sky :)
-
Wish it would make up it's mind :bang: :bang: :bang: very cold for a few days prior to C.mas then warmer; followed by heavy rain and sleet today ………..
-
Hard frost first thing. Had some snow showers since.
-
Ha, cubagirl, as ever, polar opposites!
Woke to a very light frost but brilliant blue skies now and just returned from a wonderful walk where I had to loosen my very light layers. (Of course I have my own inbuilt central heating system 'doing it's thang' ;)
Hope you have your thermals on! x
-
Beautiful blue skies and sun ,top of Snowdon looks dazzling with her snow white "hat" on 8)
-
Hard frost in the shade all day.
Blue sky.
Dusk now .....
-
battening down the hatches :o 'cos Winter weather is on it's way - apparently : fortunately the boiler man has kind of sorted the problem which caused the system to shut down on Sat. night .... >PHEW< lots of coal to hand and logs chopped!
Today it's been drizzling, hard :sigh:
-
Was quite pleasant here today, but we're in NE Scotland & appear to be missing the worst of it for now. Freezing wind though, but dry.
-
Dry but miserable. Not particularly cold but still got the heating on.
-
Love the avatar littleminnie - do we get a change every month?
Calm. Blue sky. Chilly wind. DRY :o
-
Yes I think I will change it every month. You only live once :)
-
Love it ;D
-
Preparing for the supposed snow, best thing I ever bought was my North Face Arctic Parka for my commute. And my ice grippers. Never be caught out like the horror of 2010 again!
-
R those things that you put onto the soles of the shoes/boots?
-
has the snow arrived with anyone yet?
Heavy drizzle here in the Midlands .....
-
Yep we have it here, but too wet to settle so far
-
:o
Apparently Jayswick, Colchester and other towns on that part of the E Coast are being evacuated!
-
Yes, was quite heavy at work early on this morning but had disappeared by the time I finished up. Very icy though, slid a few times coming home and tomorrow will be an interesting commute
-
Now have a dusting & that's it. More forecast though.
-
R U all North or South of the Watford Gap or North or South of Durham ???
-
NE coast of Scotland. Just heard from someone 16 miles further inland & they have lots.
-
Enough to build a snow person in the morning ;)
-
I'm in Glasgow but work north of the city. Saw a few snowmen this morning but they didn't last long. Just a dusting of snow now.
-
Mountains covered but none in the village ,Snowdonia .
-
just a dusting here outside Kendal - haven't had chance to see the fells yet.
-
Snowing here in London but only light and nothing settled . Ground too wet from rain yesterday. Heading down to Kent today which may have more.
-
Snow in the early hours. Then a heavy storm followed by sunshine from a blue sky ::). Thawing fast now. Hopefully that's Winter done and dusted ;D
-
Bitter wind - seasonal then ::)

Ne'er a flake.....

Clear blue skies, icy but not so much wind, so quite nice.

Various amounts of drizzle, sleet and sunshine - not as cold this morning

R U all North or South of the Watford Gap or North or South of Durham ???
South of the Watford Gap - North Downs.

We had zilch, South of the South Downs Sparkle - I think we are to close to the coast.
-
Chilly with almost a constant drizzle. Skies cleared just before dusk.
-
:sunny: :sunny: :sunny: :sunny: :sunny:
Such a beautiful sunny day with clear skies! Temp by the garage in the shade was 3.5 but I was able to sit out in the warmish sunshine without a coat outside the cottage and in sheltered parts of the garden - and went for a lovely walk along the lanes. Made me feel glad to be alive - and that spring may not be too far round the corner - snowdrops coming up too....
Hurdity x
-
Dull. Dry. Grey apart from 20 mins. :sunny: mid-afternoon. Chilly now.
-
Clear blue skies all day. Went for a walk today without a coat.

Dry, mild but dull.

Icy. Misty. Sunshine in the villages all around ours, over the hills, shone for 20 mins. here :sigh:
-
Sunny but absolutely freezing!
-
Cold again :-\
-
Bright blue sunny skies and mild but gone cold now
-
Miserable.
-
Rainy and dull, 21C. Perfect for watching films and having extra calories, only if I could.
-
You or the weather 'littleminnie'?
Bright sunshine from a blue sky, light fluffy white clouds. Very cold, still freezing in the shade.
-
Just got in from walking the dog round the block, it was bloomin freezing.
But a nice clear sky & Venus was as bright as a button. I was glad to get back indoors though, but as soon as I did my glasses steamed up! I just hate it when that happens.
-
So you didn't leave Cazikins :-\
I lifted the bin lids earlier when doing the recycling and at 7.30 they were already sticking!
-
So you didn't leave Cazikins :-\
No I'm still here CLKD - why the undecided face, are you not happy with me still being here ;) ;D ;) ;D
-
Oh that's me being confused ::)
Cold
Clear
Blue skies
Slightly warmer in that the bin lids are un-stuck
-
Cold++. The air looks like a fall of snow would be useful. Grey all day with a small area of blue sky high above. Fire is lit. Heating is on. Can't wait to get under our electric blanket later :D
-
Chilly.
-
WARM! :( - after bitter cold on Thursday, bright sunshine part of yesterday when I considered doing some gardening, again this morning it's warm.
-
Grey, cold, wet and a bit sleety. Yeuch :P
-
Been beautiful here, blue skies, very mild, gave me a chance to clean bird feeders and bird baths.
-
Still light at 5.00 p.m. :bounce: [sorry Taz]
-
Lots of showers today but milder
-
Snow at teatime, back to rain again now.
-
Bright but chilly. Cannot wait for the spring.
-
Beautiful sunshine, but chilly.
-
Really weird, when I looked out at 6.30 a.m. it was sharp frost even on the road surface; 40 min.s later that had all gone! now it's dull and warmer :-\

Grey and drizzly all day, now raining more heavily.

Absolutely pouring down!!!! Gales and rain - been miserable all week - weather - not me :).

Cold, dull but at least it's dry, for now.
-
After 3-4 days of very grey skies then it trying to snow over the weekend: bright :sunny: from a blue sky!
-
Very bad gales ! Blue sky and Sun though.
-
Rubbish weather. ;D
-
Just been talking to my son. He lives in Maine USA, where they have over 2 feet of snow at the moment and much, much higher where it drifts. The icicles from the roof are hanging down 3 feet down. My son is a paramedic, so doesn't get 'snow' days off. He says the problem is when they have to get to ill and/or old people, who cannot clear the way to their doors. It creates a lot of work. They have to clear snow in the town and carry it away in dumper trucks and dump elsewhere. I think I would rather have the dull cloudy grey days here, rain or not!
-
Snow is nice to look at on a lovely sunny day, but it does bring major problems in many places around the world. We've had bad snow in the past, though nowhere as bad as just a few miles inland. Quite thankful to be honest that we don't get it so bad very often. Last really bad spell of snow here was about 8 years ago.
Today we have had lovely sunshine. Even managed to go out & about with just a lightweight jacket on. Certainly lifts your mood when the weather is better.
-
FabULus start to the day across the Fen then the grey skies rolled in :-\ - not as cold though
-
Woken to a beautiful day! :) :) :)
-
...... which has stayed lovely so far. Much warmer. No wind. Gardening weather :bounce:
-
Several decorations on the tree outside the lounge, left over from Ch.mas have blown away this morning :o and we have lifted/moved Council bins several times already! Blustery. Not cold. Bees flying backwards :D
-
Snow, quite bad on the way in but turned to slush now. Friend has been stuck on the motorway for 4 and a half hours now though - absolute nightmare :(
-
A bit windy ;)
-
Being stuck as long as one remembers to take the She-we with you! Gusty. Bins being rescued ........
-
Gale force winds now dying down 82 mph reported here !
Friend visiting has been stuck on a train 4 hrs now it's terminated at Chester 100 miles away ! :o
-
We had the wind yesterday. Today we had heavy rain/sleet. Brightening up now.
Hope none of you have suffered too much damage.
-
It's been strange: sharp frost overnight followed by sunshine, then dull skies, then blustery wind so I hung out 4 pairs of thick clothing - 10 mins. later it hailed, hard :o; followed by sunshine and now heavy rain against the windows.
-
Rained all day.

Less blustery now.

Beautiful sunny day, raining and windy now though :o

Where in Oz are you Suzie? Remember working in a burger booth in Pitt Street Sydney on the hottest day of 1991, it was horrendous.

My niece & family been struggling for a number of weeks with temps in Oz. They got up to mid 40's recently.
Weather here is pants!

The rain is throwing itself at the house, trying to get in :o - neighbours' cat has run for shelter under our yew tree, don't think she will stay dry there for long ::)

Sunny but then with really heavy showers. Going to snow overnight seemingly and feel like minus 5 tomorrow morning - thought it was spring!

Snow again! that surely is Spring ;D
-
Sunny but with a chill in the wind.

Sun is still pouring through the windows :) from a clear blue sky ........

Sun then some rain, then some sun, then some rain, need I say more? Sun is now streaming through the kitchen windows and all looks very wet and shiny!
-
Practicing for April then ;D
-
'Tis the vernal equinox today - spring has sprung!!! ::)
Daffodils abound in the lanes and primroses galore in the hedgebanks as I drove about today. We even had some sunshine too as well as torrential rain, and an icy blast of wind this morning!

glorious here :sunny:, too hot for me to sit out in our sun trap of a garden for more than 30 mins but plenty of vit D in that time but hubby is happy digging and mulching :)
-
Lovely on the south coast, but a bit of a breeze.
-
Beautiful in Ireland !
-
Lovely in Glasgow too 🌞
-
Too warm for me earlier ::) ........ and I had to tell the neighbour to put on a shirt because I could see his back and shoulders getting redder and redder and .......... it was that or accept that I would be over with the sun lotion ;D
Weather thingy shows rain ......... it's been good for laundry though :)
-
ooooooh, you are awful ;D

Lovely weather, very warm indeed!! not good for my hot flushes I'm afraid but onwards and upwards and all that.
-
Dare I say that it's too warm :D. Lovely though with things bursting into bud.
-
Grey and cold!

It's was a lovely sunny day up until about an hour ago when the sun disappeared.
The sky is now grey and it's turned cool.

Wet & windy! :(
-
Pouring now. At least our one day of the sun was at the weekend 🙂
-
Not wanting to make you all jealous, but 10.15 here in North London and I have only just shut the back door! Hubby and I went for a lovely stroll in the woods today. Lots of spring greenery and people having picnics on the common. It lifts my spirit.
-
Daughter was same in the Midlands. Everyone out in shorts & sunscreen.
-
Cold >:(
-
we're in the Midlands and there is a cold wind. Needed a coat on our dog walk
-
I can only go by photos posted of grandkids on FB. She said it was glorious. Maybe she found a sheltered park for kids to play in.
-
well cubagirl, sometimes I go to the other side of our town and when I come home my husband asks if I got wet as it has rained on one side of town and not the other :)
-
Can do that up here too, rain one side of river, dry other. Today it was wet & breezy here. Obviously on wrong side today, ;)
-
It was too hot yesterday in the Midlands but chillier today - what a change in 9 hours :o. Sun is pouring through our lounge windows straight onto the wood burner which is roaring away ;D
-
Cold ☹️

Cold and windy. Had to laugh at the predictions that Scotland would have 3 months of hot weather - I'll believe it when I see it. ;D
-
Move over, on my way ;D ....... do I need a Passport yet? ;)
Dry. Dull. Sunny. Cold ......... nearly Easter then :P

Cold this morning.
Sun appeared at lunch time but that cold wind is still here.

Blooming freezing. Couldn't believe it when I saw snow, we don't live high enough.

Cold and wet this morning cold and dry this afternoon.
At least we haven't had snow !
Lanzalover x

Typical Bank Holiday Monday >sigh<. I have been quite depressed as we haven't been able to sit by our ponds nor go out and about, simply too dull and cold :-\
-
Whoa, brilliant clear sky, full on shine shine but really chilly with windy blasts. House seems freezing this morning! :o
-
Typically bright sunshine this morning, I pity anyone who was trying to hold an event over the weekend or has to work today :'(
Very cold wind though :o
-
Pretty cold really. Selfishly I quite like it as it helps with my hot flushes, fantastic to go out in the cold air after burning up in work all day!

Cool this morning but warm and sunny this afternoon.

Chilly in the wind today.

Typically sunny today. Calm. No wind.

Cold and grey,snow flurries for last next Wed ! :o

Not so much in the morning here, it was a cloudy chilly start but now sunny and much milder. Think we've a chilly spell on the way!

We had hailstones earlier. Chilly, chilly.

Sun today for a change.

Bright and sunny with a cold wind.

Back from hols and pleased to see the weather is still hot and sunny here in the SW :). Has been a fantastic day!
However, the garden desperately needs some rain - we've had almost none during the whole of April....
Hurdity x :sunny:

Sunny again today.

Another sunny day ahead of promised snow Wed !

Cold this morning the sun has made an appearance this afternoon but we still have that cold wind.

Another sunny day ahead of promised snow Wed !
We had heavy snow on the final day of the Easter term when I was newly 17 and in 5th year at school. It was mid-April..... :-\
-
Glorious day here today: blue sky with fluffy bits and really quite warm.
-
Not too bad today. ❄❄❄ Forecast! :(
-
Dull. Drizzle. Blustery. Cold :-\
-
just having one of the 'wintery showers' the forecasters talked about. Had to run out and pull in 2 lines of washing.
-
Sky inky black. Heavy snow forecast. Hopefully this is winter giving us one final blast before leaving us until later in the year. ;D ;D ;D
-
Heavy snow, but pretty wet stuff so not lying.
-
Cold and blustery and to get colder tomorrow.
Lanzalover x
-
Snow flurries this morning but when the sun shines and you are in a sheltered spot it's really quite warm.
Very strange weather.
Mrs Brown
-
? April showers ?
-
Started off glorious, left the restaurant after lunch and was greeted by rain. Throughout afternoon it was drizzly but very mild. Tonight a wind is building and the temps are due to drop. Typical spring day really!
Cubagirl we live in polar opposites: I think it'd suit me up there but I'd have to do it alone as hubby likes the weather down here. x
-
Strangely it wasn't too cold in between showers. Wind was quite light, so not the usual wind chill.
-
Very thin layer of ice on the windscreen this morning !
Bright day but boy the wind is bitingly cold.
Lanzalover x
-
Absolutely beautiful day today, blue skies, bright sunshine but a nip in the air from a north wind.
-
Crikey! We went to visit friends this evening in a village 5 miles away. Black skies all round. Thunder. Lighting. HAIL and snow :o storm lasted at least 25 mins. everywhere was white; roofs, cars, windscreens ......... April showers then :D. We had to remain in the vehicle until the storm stopped and were glad for a cuppa !!
-
walked the dog in a hailstorm earlier, now we are both (me and dog) looking out on sunshine and blue skies! Still nippy though.
-
Nippy here, too cold to get into the garden >:( - so much to do outdoors, so little time :sigh:
-
Sunny and windy - and randomly - we just had 3 flakes of snow or thereabouts - but now it's spotting with rain - feels freezing after Spain!
Hurdity x
-
....... Spain - how was it over there; bright, warm, sunny, skinny dipping ? ;)
-
Now south of the border watching grandkids. Freezing here too!
-
Grey all day with intermittent showers and we still have that really cold wind !
Lanzalover x

Another bright 🌞 day here but windy :yipi:

Very bright here also quite mild, doors and windows open. Rain suggested later but who knows!

Bring some back ?!? I am SO cold. The wind is blustery and too chilly to consider any weeding today.
Sky is heavy like it's going to snow :-\
-
Really warm and lovely. Typical exam weather really - seems to be every year without fail it is nice during exam leave which started yesterday.
-
Its been a beautiful week , sunny and beautiful blue sky. Chilly out of the sun but can cope with that !
-
Bright sunshine & pleasantly warm.
-
Had Sun 🌞 for a few days now ,feeling spoilt ! :)
-
I saw sunshine for 3 hours today :o B4 it greyed over again.

Very bright and warm in the sunshine, but cold if you aren't in the sun.
-
More 🌞 :bounci:
-
Dull and chilly :(
-
Bright and ☀️ cool in the shade 8)
-
Bit overcast today,can't have it all I guess !😉
-
Bright & sunny, but cool breeze still. Can't have it all I suppose. Garden very thirsty though.
-
Bright but not as sunny as yesterday. The wind is in a different direction today so not as chilly.
Mrs Brown
-
cold drizzly and dismal but don't care as not going out today :)

26 degrees ☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️

Bright and sunny, we have had a lovely week !

10 degrees, feels like 6!!! Got the heating on again.

Glorious sunshine, spent the day in the garden.
-
Cold! With a biting northerly wind making it feel even colder.
-
Wind is from the North here too >:( but at least the washing is blowing hard !
-
More 🌞 again today ☺
-
real sun - instead of what exactly ;D [our local forecaster said on Wed that we would have wet rain showers ....... :-\ ]
-
Beautiful day in NI - spent afternoon in garden☀️☀️
-
Beautiful here today. Really warm. I could get used to this which is a very foolish statement when you live in Scotland.
More of the same tomorrow.
Mrs Brown
-
Make the most of it Mbrown001! Holiday season approaches ;D
-
Come on ladies share the sun with the rest of Scotland. I had heating on again, it was so chilly! ;D
-
Yep, heating on here too - must have a warm bathroom ;D
-
Beautiful day, sun is shining and its still warm in the garden.
-
Dull most of the day AGAIN! :(
-
The sun has got his hat on, hip hip hip hooray! It's never both of us is it cubagirl? x
-
Just isn't fair is it? Some outdoor warmth wouldn't go amiss.
-
Sunny and 🌞 all day long ,it's still pouring in through the windows. Rain forecast for Friday though.
-
I think "that" was our Summer >:( - 3 and a half days of lovely :sunny: , at times nice enough to sit out with a cuppa - now it's like November >:( and I am SO fed up with the cold wind :-\
-
Gorgeous yesterday, back to dull, damp & freezing today!
-
"that" was it then ? :(
-
Certainly was for us CLKD. Warmer weather promised for tomorrow. Believe it when I feel it. ;D
-
Pouring :cat88: and :scottie: here but we have had glorious weather for 10 days so the ground is parched and needs it. :P
-
Hopefully the heavy rain as well as additional drizzle will seep into the newly planted veg and sweet pea plants. Also might encourage slugs out for the hedgehogs :-)
-
Ohh I have two separate pots of sweetpeas out ,I love em,and they were my darling mum's favourites too. :)
-
Mine are 2" tall - yours? ;D
-
About 4 inches ! ::) ;D
-
HUH! :D
-
One lot are slightly shorter but bushier,the other lot lankier! ;D
-
I love sweet peas but have never grown them.
It's dry, cloudy but bright here and really quite blowy. Had rain early this morning but the ground is still parched. House is chilly, just popped heating on.
-
Don't think that the rain has gone deeply either - burner lit!
-
Drizzling. Hard. No gardening today! Hopefully it will replensish the holding barrels and perk up the camellia which is a bit yellow round the edges. Windows open around the house as it's muggy :-\
-
Bit brighter and drier today ! :P
-
steadily wet but humid
-
;D. 'steadily' suits it!

Supposed to be about 14 degrees here but this house feels cold. I've whacked the heating on! You just enjoy it dazned!

Quite nice. Just been down at the beach, but there's a chilly breeze.
-
Lovely this morning, warm and sunny; drizzling again .......
-
Really heavy hailstorm a few minutes ago :o - now cool and grey
Hurdity x
-
Due to heavy rain since 11.30 p.m. we changed our plans today :sigh: .... we had 20 mins. of sunshine a short while ago, now it's drizzling hard again :-\
-
It's absolutely lovely here ,I'm sure we'll pay for it later!
-
Lovely sunny day but pouring down now .
-
April Showers >:( - the sun-set last night was glorious :)
-
Beautiful yesterday and today. Rain due tomorrow though.
Mrs Brown
-
Weet! ;D
-
It's warming up next week! Need to put the thermals away.
-
At the moment, it's blanket-grey, breezy and chucking splots (no, Mr. Spell-Checker - I know this isn't a real word!) of rain on to the windows.
-
It's been glorious all day with the most brilliant sunset :)
More promised until the weekend - well it *is* a Bank Holiday ::)
-
We had lots of splots too dulciana. ;D Big heavy, wet ones plus a flash of lightning, but now its dry again.
-
Today it's 20 degrees out there & no sun!!! Clouds everywhere.
-
Warm and dull.
Want the sunshine back please.
Mrs Brown

Whew :sunny: :sunny: :sweatdrop: :sweatdrop:
Mrs Brown

At least there's a breeze tonight, though. Last night at dusk, the trees were so still that we could see the birds settling down to bed in them. :)
-
Hit 24° at one point. Unheard if this early up here. Currently lying on top of the bed trying to cool off. Fat chance! 😧😧😧
-
26° here yesterday, I think a fair few Glaswegians will be lobster coloured today as it was definitely a 'taps aff' day ;)
Normally love the heat and can cope with 40° abroad, but these hot flushes make it a whole new ball game!
-
Says 19° at the moment, but feels much hotter. Sun has got his hat on. So has hubby, he's creosoting fence. I've bought the ice lollies, hard work ice lolly purchasing! ;D

Thanks for reminding me, I fancy buying those Iceland Watermelon ice lollies (if there's any left!)
-
Someone's just turned a shower on. No, wait.....it's the weather. Bucketing. Turned into one of those rain on/rain off days...
-
🎵 Feeling hot hot hot 🎵 for the past few days but thank Heavens today has a breeze. I can't even pretend I enjoy the summer, should have been an Inuit!
-
28 in our car on Friday :o - cooler breeze today, rain forecast .....
-
Much cooler today. Very windy. Great day for drying washing though.
-
Sun peeping through but rain forecast later ☔️☔️☔️
-
I saw that on the BBC news groundhog - brolley at the ready then?
-
We've had a lot of rain over the last few days & the water butt is full again.
Thunderstorm last night which I had hoped would clear the air a bit but it's still muggy.
-
No rain here for about a week. Guess I'm going to be watering plants again.
-
April Showers today ;D
-
heavy downpours most of the day, at last. No watering this evening :)
-
Wet. Water butt is full.
-
April Showers since 2.30 p.m.
-
Drizzling so doing indoor chores ::)
-
Heating is back on, says it all really. ::)
-
I've put another jumper on >:( ::) and it's drizzling ...... still. Blustery too.
-
In France apparently: when I flick to the tennis ::)
-
Blowing a gale, tipping it down and the top half of "my" mountain has disappeared in thick mist >:(
-
Heavy cloud and very windy, think rain is on it's way. Still prefer this temperature to last week's horrible heat, sorry gals!! Woken at 4.35 this morning by the light (that's with a black out blind and thick padded floor length curtains - yep I know I'm a weirdo!) and worked out that the days will be growing shorter very soon now. Tee-hee got a major telling off from hubby when I pointed it out ;)
Bring on the Autumn!! :whist:
-
:P - it will be the longest day soon :'( ........ maybe then we'll get a Summer ???. Still drizzling.
-
Wild night .... it blew my lilies over >:( >:(
Still windy today but the sun is trying to come out.
-
☔️☔️☔️ again. >:(
-
Soggy as a "small piece of damp rag" (Winnie the Pooh).................
-
Wild start, lashing rain and scary gusts! Now bright and breezy with a bit if a chill in the air.
-
Heavy persistent rain today.....oh joy
Mrs Brown
-
Blustery wind, saw a sparrow blown over :o then it hunkered down onto the patio. N o point putting washing on the line as it will be away to the next town, the persistent rain has eased: for now :-\
-
🌂🌂🌂🐈🐈🐈🐩🐩🐩
-
;D. - yep, throw in gale force winds :o - more like November >:(
-
Blustery but dry. I haven't dared walk round our garden after yesterday's gales :-\
-
Very windy. Thankfully it's dry today.
-
Blustery. April Showers. Cold. Like I've slept 3 months .........
-
Pouring again. Heating on again. Where is summer?
-
France?

Was howling gales and rain but has now cleared up/. Still windy though and yes oh so cool :(

Tennis players are stealing all the sunshine in Paris I see. :(

Dauphanie [sp] cyclists have some of that!

I have found an excellent thunder storm website if anyone is interested. Storms off N Norfolk at the moment.
-
Oh I love watching these maps, glad none beside us, for now.
-
Better today, a few showers in front of blustery wind but much improved.
-
A lovely evening. Calm. Warm. Nice enough to sit by our ponds and wait for the frogs and hogs .......
-
Had torrential showers all afternoon. Now it's calm & clammy.
-
It's been hot hot hot all day today - maybe a bit too hot but mustn't complain as it will probably be wet & windy in a few days time.
-
Dry today. First dry day since the weekend, rain again tomorrow.
Nit ideal holiday weather. Hey ho ::)
Mrs Brown
-
I'll send you our weather up north MrsB - It was up to 25 degrees in my garden today.
-
Dull but warm up here. Where's the 🌞?
-
Lovely. A temperature at last that suits me absolutely.
-
We have had several glorious days - proper flaming June, with high evening temperatures and brilliant sunshine. Definitely vest top and short shorts weather - not to mention olive oil ::) (cooking and slathering!). Towns are empty. coast is seething!
Hurdity :sunny: :sunny: x

Bleurgh!!

Warming up, but still not much sun.

Oh dear Mrs B. We now have ⛅☔ Tomorrow 🌞🌞🌞 Believe it when I see it.

I think it's to pick up a bit CG......dry and warm but not much sun.
Hey ho.....summer in Bonnie Scotland ;D
Mrs Brown
-
.... with midges MrsB? I was told that they only go after rotten meat :o :-X. It's the carbon dioxide actually ::) - that'll be rain then :-\ ???
Sun is pouring through the lounge window :)
-
That doesn't say much about residents of Scotland! ;D
-
Rarely get midges where I am CLKD. I'm too near the coast.
Rotten meat.... ;D......you cheeky woman ;D
Mrs Brown
-
Repeating what I was told when I got bitter as a child :whist: when we stayed in Dornie there was a huge whirlly thing in the garden apparently it breathed CD and drew the critters towards it :o .......
I ought to be sitting in the sun ....... too tired to leave the sofa though after a broken night :(
-
Too hot. :(
-
Hot & sticky. 24 degrees with lots of clouds.
-
Very very warm but humid and dull.
All the windows are open but not even a suggestion of a breeze.
Mrs Brown
-
Hot all day which I have spent in the shade, resting
Now on the patio as dusk falls. Blackbird is singing. Watering done. Same again until Tuesday when it goes 'down' to 20C: apparently ::)
-
I'm struggling to cope here with all of this sunshine and such high temperatures but putting on a brave face while singing Frosty the Snowman to anyone who'll listen!
Taz x ;D
-
Sun has gone, for the day I think. More comfortable mind you.
-
32 degrees yesterday, same again today. Kill me!!!!!!!
-
Melting here in the welsh valleys :o
-
Hot, dry, sunny.
I have run out of water in the water butts - it never lasts long.
I am having trouble keeping upstairs cool now - it gets worse each hot day. Last night I slept with the window open and did not notice the bird or road noise until after 4am, then I got up and closed it.
-
Our hall is the coolest spot today ........ can't hear you Taz, you need to sing LOUDER :na:
PHEW! can sit and doze until 7.30 when it will be quite nice!
-
Not and 🌞 in the Welsh mountains !
-
Our hall is the coolest spot today
Our downstairs loo is the cool spot, conveniently ;D

Move over ........ :D

36.4 on our balcony just now at 6.15 pm in Alcudia. Too hot to sunbathe but had a lovely swim, sat on a Vine covered balcony and did a lot of reading, drinking and eating. After 24 hours here I am beginning to unwind. :)
-
Just nice in NI ;) like the 3 bears porridge ;D took dad and Mum a drive :)
-
It was a tad chilly at beach this afternoon. Chilly breeze. Never happy. ;) Couldn't cope with that heat Pennyfarthing. I'd have been in the pool, with a pina colada or a strawberry daiquiri. ;D

Apart from the swim, I stayed in the shade Cubagirl and it was blissful. At 10pm tonight it was still 29c. Just got back to our hotel room and air con in the room is perfect. Had plenty of pina coladas today but never tried a strawberry daiquiri. Will try tomorrow. ;)
-
Scorchio in West Wales. Hubby swam in the sea ( in his pants) and said it was blissful. 36Degrees in car at one point and air con struggling. Way too hot for me, got fan going flat out and still boiling 😩
I dint like it this hot, Mid 20s is perfect for me 🌞
-
It's set to rise as the week goes on ::).
PF - ...... and breath. Let us know what a daiquiri is like?
GHog - I haven't swum in the sea for years .......... too many crawlies and stingy things in the water :D. had you taken a towel?
Cool air blower on the windowsill taking air from the outside in .........
-
Strawberry daiquiries are heaven. Hopefully PF will agree, ;)
-
Strawberry daiquiries are heaven. Hopefully PF will agree, ;)
I was given the job of making these for a recent party, so easy! Blending a punnet of strawberries, two bottles of Strawberry and Lime wine, juice of a lime and a 'dash' or two of vodka- froze the mixture.
Served it like a slush puppy for grown ups- really tasty and perfect for hot weather :)
-
Salad, oh that's my kind of daiquiri, in a pool, sun beating down. Shame I'm in the northeast, no pool. Sun yes, but not warm enough here for sunbathing.
-
Sooo hot. Won't complain about the cold weather ever again. ::)
-
Bet you do, ::) ;D
-
70 would be lovely. Up to 88 in our utility room which faces East ........ sun doesn't go off there until 2.30-ish ::)
Not that *I'm* complaining ....... much :sigh: feeling queasy with it now .
-
Coolest place in our house is currently at 23 degrees. Not much sun, just very warm.
-
Feel better again, have eaten in little bits ......... in the cool with the blower going
up to 30 in the car at 11.30 :o - now down to 28 ::)
-
Roasting here but with a light breeze so manageable. So glad that I'm not down South East anymore and that terrible humidity,it used to kill me !
-
It's killing me too dazned, it's truly horrific!
We are very sheltered here and temps in our back garden were 35 yesterday, 33 today. Aside from the sitting room and dining room, the house is like a furnace. I'm keeping all south facing windows and doors firmly closed with the blinds down which helps a little but trying to sleep is hellish!
How much longer is this going to last? I might drive up and join you girls in Scotland, still hankering after that little Scottish fishing village!! x
-
Spare room available Elizabethrose ;)
It was 25 in the garden this afternoon but there is a sea breeze so although it's hot for here the house is cool. Windows have been open all day.
This morning at about 7am I was in the garden with the dog and all I could smell was the sea. It's just lovely. I went for a paddle this morning. Only up to my knees though as the water was freezing ;D
I really don't envy you girls in the south right now.
Tomorrow is rain.... :(.
That's the trouble with Scotland...you get about two weeks of summer a year. The rest of the time is cold and wet.
Mrs Brown
-
On my way Mrs B, don't need to ask twice!!
Oh but really, how lucky are you?! I would love to live by the sea and smell the sea from my house. Oh what joy!!
Well all is not so bad, the trachelospermum climbing up the back of my house is in full flower and overpowering fragrant. It looks utterly fab but I'd still swop it for that sea view!! xx
-
More blustery breeze earlier which cooled the air from 6.30 ........ however, upstairs I could fry an egg on the bath ........
-
It's hard work watering the hangers and tubs. Water butt is empty, want it to rain.
-
Rain is forecast for Thursday night ........
Water storing tubs are emptying fast here, back to the hose pipe.
WARM ::) - has Summer arrived and Is This It! Longest day :'( :'(
-
Dull and warm here with a little shower.
Mrs Brown

Share!!! Chilly & damp here. :(

36 in my sun trap garden, much hotter in the house. Please someone come and put me out of my misery!! x
-
Move house? ;D Much cooler up here in northeast.
-
House swap ER? ::) ;D I'm wrapped in a blanket as house is so cool - lovely balmy evening but little chilly inside. Was considering lighting my fire ::) I'm always cold :bbq:
-
I would at the drop of a hat ladies! Loathe heat with a vengeance but whilst he hates this sort of heat, hubby likes the long daylight hours summer brings. By contrast he hates the winter!
Daisy, such extraordinary contrasts just don't seem possible do they? I'm deeply envious! Dreading the attempt at sleep tonight. x
-
I know ER! I'm in NI and although warm today quite cool now :) I love winter ::) can't wait for the dark nights :) I've an aunt though that dreads it - I can see how limiting it can be for older folk to get out and about.
-
When does it get dark with you Elizabethrose.
Last night for us it was about 11:20 and then light again just after 4am.
We do get much shorter winter days though.
We had a great thunder storm earlier so the air is quite fresh now,
Mrs Brown
-
It was light at 3.50 one morning last week ........ we sat out until 11.30 last night as it cooled it was dark by 9.45.
In another hour it will be 'right' ::)
Cold DB? You and Taz both :(
-
34C+ hit at Heathrow today!
-
It gets dark here about 2300, amazing what zero light pollution let's you see !
-
☔⚡☁
-
Ten degree drop so far, please no repeat of yesterday!! :worm:

It seems to be light well before 4 though don't think sunrise is until about 4.30. Sunset about 9.30 last night but still light till about 10.30, but this was last night and differs when there is rain. You seem to have a later sunset Mrs B.
Hubby dislikes the darkness of winter and wet dull weather but I really love it. How weird that we're all so different. I guess for me, when I wake and see the dazzling blue sky I know that I've got to find a way to stay out of the sun or slap factor 60 everywhere. I also find heat desperately oppressive, suffocating. It feels as if my blood pressure is going through the roof, it's a physical thing rather than mental. Red hair, skin like a jellyfish, suppose it's no surprise really! ;D
-
Thunder storm now raging, but not as much rain as I would like.
-
Clammy outside, tad chilly inside.
-
Much cooler thank goodness ::)
-
34c on our balcony just now. Been out all morning and now laying in the air con bedroom before going for a swim.
-
Cooler >phew< - able to potter at last!
-
Chilly >:( Was That It :-\ ?
-
Yeah we got some 🌞 & heat for a change!
-
Cool, cloudy and drizzle ::)
-
Wonderful!! Mild, cloudy and breezy and totally ER perfect! ;)
-
Not bad 18 degrees. Sun hiding behind clouds at times.
-
I was so cold in the night I put my leccy blanket on ........ ::)
Today has been 'right' ..........
-
I had to dig out fleece blanket to put on bed. Hubby is in shorts!!!!!!!
-
Drizzling lightly.
Cooler.
Brought laundry inside ......
-
;D Sparkle, he changed. Now in trousers & lightweight fleece.
Folk are out washing their cars. ::)
-
They wash their cars in our district too :-\. - too much time on their hands when there's lots of sport to watch ;)
-
£4 local car wash.....sit and watch while they do it ;D That's my idea of car washing, fortunately hubby agrees.
Cool and dull, then a bit of sun here. It's really not warm though.
Mrs Brown
-
We need to take ours to car wash too. Can't remember last time we did it ourselves. ;D
-
Beautiful day along the north coast - dinner overlooking the water as sun was setting - dogs walked on beach - visit and tea to FIL in holiday cottage - and home over the glens of Antrim - bliss ::) car is dirtier than sparkles though ;D feel guilty now - I'll wash it tomorrow - well I'll pay £10 for all over valet ::) that should do it another for another few months :)
-
Lovely temperature until 10 mins. ago when it turned really warm ::)
-
Brrr got heating on. Ridiculous in June!
-
Warm and sunny this morning, dull this afternoon. Heating will no doubt go on after dinner for a short while.
Sparkle.... Yep to the green algae ;D....I blame it on where the car is parked ::) ::)
Mrs Brown
-
Very overcast but humid. Cooler at night for sleeping though :)
-
Really hot today, I thought we'd got rid of that silliness! Rain expected over the next few days, though I'll believe it when I see it. Thought I'd use the opportunity to power wash our garden stonework. I don't have to bend to do that!!
-
Hubby loves his power washer.
We call it his hydro therapy. ;D. He doesn't know that of course
Mrs Brown
-
I need to don full wet weathers B4 I use our power washer ::)
Cooler this evening - no sitting on the patio >:(
-
Cooler
April Showers, enough to drive me indoors
-
Cold, grey & damp.
-
Rain and more rain....oh and more rain.
Can I have just a little bit of summer please.
Mrs Brown
-
Only if you share Mrs B. ;D
-
I will indeed CG.
Just want to see some blue sky and for my garden to look less soggy. ::)
-
Dull and showery - but clammy :(
-
Whoa well the rain certainly arrived. It has bucketed down since about midday!
As planned I went out with the water pressure this morning covered in SPF 50, boiling hot then after a couple of hours the heavens opened. Given I was soaked to the skin I just kept going. The hot shower was a delight when I finished!
-
Rain was bit of a damp squib here, never really got going. I am grateful for that. But boy, it was like winter!
-
April showers until 6.00 ish, now it's pouring gently - frogs all over the patio ::), plants hopefully being throughly soaked .......
-
Last night there was a ring round the moon - fine all of today. Ring round the moon right now ;)
-
Frost forecast up here in the glens. Ridiculous for July!
-
Rain ☔ last couple of days !😠
-
Another lovely day - so far - however, too hot for me TB outdoors ::)
-
Nice so far, pleasantly warm.
-
Blue skies,not a cloud in sight here in Plymouth. 3 cats out, Tabitha kitten, PollyMarie and I are watching tennis today.
-
Rain, cloudy, horrible. >:(
-
warm :o
-
Dull after hazy sunshine.
-
Utterly revolting!! 33 in my garden and 34 upstairs in my house. No sleep again tonight i suspect! Oh moan moan moan!!
-
Hot 🔥 here too !
Ceiling fan on in bedroom tonight me thinks,I'd be lost without it girls ! ;)
-
I don't own a fan, never had one but I am going to buy one because I truly can't cope with this. Our house is usually cool and the sitting room is a darn sight cooler than upstairs but it is suffocating today. :(
-
I own fan, huge thing it is but hubby won't let me use it in hot weather, says it only circulates hot air, bit like himself. ;D
-
:rofl:
So when are you supposed to use it cubagirl, when it's cold? Men! x
-
we have a table fan on in the bedroom, one in the sitting room and a large floor fan on in the dining room which I leave on at night too for the dog who sleeps in there. It is unbearable without them on and all windows plus back door open too. 26 degrees in our sitting room this evening but rather airless.
-
18 degrees in mine, one advantage of living in a tenement! Not so good in winter though
-
Have you room for a little person nearly50, I'll bring cake!! ;)
Upstairs is now up to 37. Home alone tonight, if I can't sleep again I may just try to set up camp downstairs. Don't think the back will cope with sleeping on the sofa though!
Excuse me, get in the queue, you are just a faster typer than me!! x
-
Cool and grey up here with a little shower off and on.
Spare room here ladies so form an orderly queue.
-
You're all more than welcome 8)
37 sounds awful - reminds me of the summer I lived in Toronto and my friend would lie in a cold bath with her pyjamas on before going to bed. Not sure I recommend that though.
would it be worth buying one of these?
http://www.maplin.co.uk/p/portable-air-cooler-and-heater-a75tb
-
We could come off really well here nearly50.
They are offering cake......we could split them between us and eat lots of yummy things.
Even a tent in the garden might do.
-
Haha, and then they could offer us lodgings when we have our next hurricane in exchange
-
Oh now that's a good idea.
When they come up here we could feed them either Killie or Macaroni pies with a deep fried Mars Bar thrown in for pud. ;D
Mind you we might get eels from them :o
-
Haha, I'm still trying to get my brain around chips and cheese!! ;D
Oooh no I'd like to be up there with a hurricane, certainly beats the hells fires here tonight. Thunder storms were predicted but nought's appeared. Bored with this now.
Signed Miss grumpy pants from London >:(
-
It's caused great amusement up here that they have started to name our windy weather.
We are so used to it we call it blustery ;D
I used to run a catering operation in a golf club ER and that's when I was first asked for chips and cheese from some of the younger golfers.
The older ones wanted square sausage.....no more appealing I have to say ::)
-
Step away from my jellied eels!!!
-
Actually, just made some Horlicks ladies, am I desperate to get to sleep tonight? Sparkle I've got floaty nuts on the top! I'll let you know how I get on. we could have the Delia affect on their sales!
-
Gladly ER ;D.....stepping really really far away
:scottie: :scottie:
Sparkle you have never lived until you have tried the old deep fried Mars Bar in crispy fishy tasting batter. :o
They even deep fry pizzas up here if your really lucky
-
Oh dear, and there goes the Horlicks :barf: That food is just wrong!
-
I was even offered slices of boiled eggs on the pizza before they fried it....mind you that was years ago and I declined it then ;D
Hang on to the Horlicks ER ....err yum ;D
-
Nope ;D
It is the stuff of nightmares though.
And seriously fish and chip shops fry pizzas up here.....ooo yummy.....all that oil ::)
In fairness though we do have some really great food in Scotland now.....far more than in the past.
And I've never eaten a deep fried pizza in my life or a deep fried Mars bar either, although hubby did once have a Mars Bar with custard and said it was lovely.
How on earth did we get here by the way.... ;D ;D
-
They'll deep fry anything up here. Mars bars, cream eggs, you name it. Another is chips, cheese & gravy, sorry if any of you are feeling :sick02: ;D ;D ;D
-
Hahaha, and on that haute cuisine note, I'm signing off!! Haha yuk!
-
Oh I forgot about the gravy....more yummy foods.
Night night ER.....hope the Horlicks helps.
-
When DIL told me about the chips, cheese & gravy I had to ask if there was something she was needing to tell us. ;D
Sleep tight ER.
-
You could always move to Scotland. Colder climate & wonderful haute cuisine. What more could you ask for? ;D
-
Too hot to sleep. I've got the fan on trying to cool it down a bit before I go in there.
Our dog is in her bed with all 4 legs up in the air.
-
Hope you all survived the heat - still cloudy and raining a bit here. Sick of not seeing the sun!
BTW, pizza suppers are lovely, I didn't realise that was a Scottish thing. Never had chips and cheese but I think I'd probably like it too to be honest.
-
I'll never know about any of these delicacies, not being to eat any form of dairy. Chips are my limit.
Woke up to damp weather, :(
-
beautiful, stunning lightning storm last night in the distance but we didn't get it where we live
(https://scontent-lhr3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/19756684_770913109754935_644121907123756178_n.jpg?oh=6df46001e477a5ef8f2f52f60407d34a&oe=5A06AF57)
-
Those skies are just amazing. Hubby would be in his element photographing them.
-
wow babyjane, that's lovely though I'm sure someone somewhere was getting a soaking.
Don't worry about complaining about the heat sparkle, it must be awful. Looks like it will be sunny here tomorrow and 17 degrees (wow!).
-
'won't let me use it' ......... :-\
Too hot to sit outdoors, thank goodness for sport! 40C in France yesterday, not comfy for the cyclists as the heat was reflected from the tarmac. Lovely here by 8.30 in the shade :)
We had a lightning storm similar too - no noise so it must have been miles away! and no rain .......... and not mentioned on the storm records which is based on the Isle of Wight.
-
:-\ .......... I was OK until I read back :-X I thought that Horlics had gone out with the Arc :D
-
BJ - that's an amazing picture!
Can't take the credit, DS took the picture :)
-
Cooler now. Watching the clouds .....
-
Clammy earlier, but rain has cooled it down.
-
I'm sitting out and it's drizzling :-\ but not a cloud in the sky :o - if you look hard enough you'll see it on my screen :D
-
:sunny: Making the best of it today - breakfast al fresco with sister -walked our dogs on beach after - and stretched out on sun lounger all afternoon. :) Started new diet (recommended by Claire Snowdon Darling) never ate as many calories in my life!! A sin to call it a diet ;D ::)
-
I diet every day: what ever I fancy ........... and I soon 'go' off food stuffs so it's an Always Changing Diet ;-)
It's been sunny, not as hot: 21 instead of 28 : but muggy now .........
-
Muggy - it's making me ill
-
Raining :-\
-
Black cloud and muggy ........
-
Mizzle.
-
Warm and cloudy ::)
-
Muggy and dull :-\ but I still have my fire lit ::) hard to resist the crackle of logs even when I'm sweating like a pig ;D
-
Boiling hot here again today - off to a barbie soon. :sunny: :sunny: :sunny:
-
:na:
Not that I'm jealous in any way ;D
-
Frigging boiling again!! >:(
-
Oh you would just love it up here.....grey skies and rain rain and yet more rain ::)
-
I didn't hang laundry out due to a Very Black Cloud. That cleared pulling behind it a blue sky :-). Breezy now ....... drizzling over-night would be good.
-
Our weather is due to sun sweating Mrs B. ;D
-
Even though hot flushes are way in the past now, I find I am affected badly by hot weather now and get so very hot with sweat running down my temples and my back. I never used to sweat much so this is so strange to me. We have just come back from Spain where it was so very hot and I spent every day with my hair scraped back in a hairband as I couldn't bear it around my face. If you knew how much I hate how I look without a fringe you'd know how hard that was!
Although I loved the holiday and waking up to sunshine every day, I was actually looking forward to getting back to cooler weather here but when we stepped off the plane it felt just as hot as Spain!
How those Spanish ladies manage to look so cool and glamorous with their long dark hair framing their unsweaty faces is a mystery to me.
Ariadne xx
-
Sky has gone a very strange colour & there is a some sort of light up there too. ;D ;D ;D
-
Same here CG ;D

Oh, you have my sympathies, ariadne! My ears don't quite lie flat against my head >:( and I have always avoided having my hair back for that reason. INF! (It's Not Fair!)

Cooler - heavy rain forecast :o
-
Dull, misly rain - clammy and I've tossed all night :-\ :'(
-
Slept well. Woke to drizzle wish it would rain properly ::). Muggy.

Freezing! Had torrential rain & hailstones.
Hah, Scotland is definitely my kinda place!!
We are actually slightly cooler here today, thank heavens! We've also had some rain, not a lot, but some! Think it's heating up again tomorrow though. ::)
-
We had the heater on yesterday pm!
-
Wee weeing down☔
-
Now it's clammy, never know what clothes to wear. Layers on, layers off. It's hard work. ;D
-
Rain, but we need it here :)
-
Yes hooray - poured with rain most of the day! First for ages! Garden was so dry - such a dry summer (but not complaining about all the lovely sunshine we've had ::) ). Now the veggies will plump up and the flower garden will not look so parched, and I won't have to save all the waste water for my new roses :). Still pretty warm though....
Hurdity x
-
Drizzle came on slowly from 3.30 p.m. then turned torrential for a couple of hours B4 easing off - still drizzling ::)
-
Can't believe temperature today, 25 degrees. Phew. :sweatdrop: Colder tomorrow, then back to normal on Wednesday. Nice while it lasted.
-
Beautiful in Connemara 8) 26oC! Shame I had to leave it :-\
-
Beautiful today, went to The Cathedral of The Isles. Just wonderful.
More of the same tomorrow but going nowhere except for a paddle.
-
:ola: :ola: :ola: :ola:
Cooler! Yes!
-
Heavy rain here now but still hot and sticky.
Hopefully cooler later so I might just be able to sleep.
-
It's been a cloudy but hot & humid day here, still no rain or thunderstorms, could do with one to clear the oppressiveness out there!!
-
Thunder storms last night and heavy rain. Didn't go anywhere though, lots of pots dried out by mid-morning >:(
Sad about the floods on the Lizard Peninsula though :-\
-
Rain just started. Hope it isn't a noisy night.
-
Drizzling hard
-
Blue sky ☀️ :) - yesterday was miserable :-\ my garden is loving this weather :)
-
Thunder & lightning at back of 8am, now just rain.
-
Brightening up :)
-
Heavy rain again but no thunder. My lilies keep falling over >:(
-
Beautiful blue skies and 🌞 ,we didn't get much rain here yesterday,just a few claps of thunder one sharp downpour. Just up the coast had flash floods though ! :o
-
Blue sky for a while - need to hang some laundry.
-
Yes, sun here now :sunny:
-
Hot sunshine after very heavy showers. Lots of mist rising off the fields and woodland after the rain
-
Cooler for the start then warming up this afternoon again. Thank goodness for the breeze as it's providing respite. x
-
Still raining. Well son & DIL heading for Skye after work. ;D ;D ;D
-
Sunny after raining all day x
-
Autumnal :'(
-
Rain first thing, dry from 9-12 then rain for an hour, from 3pm sunny spells now the clouds have melted away it's a beautiful evening.
-
Wild wild wind rain and generally stormy weather - this is not late July :o - more like autumn. Put paid to my plans for gardening today. My hollyhocks are waving about and my prize spikes which reach up to the top of the bedroom window are now leaning over despite having been tied up! Weather gearing up for the school hols....
Hurdity x
-
Blustery! Not cold. Cloudy ......... yep, school holiday weather :D
-
Warm, cloudy & windy
-
Definitely School Holiday weather :o
-
Totally driech.
-
Blustery. Lovely temp.. Heavy rain over-night but dry and sunny now.
-
Just driven back from doing the shopping, through dark skies, heavy rain and cars with their headlights on. Yeuch. I just kept thinking about the cuppa that awaited me when I got in. Am enjoying that now. Aaah..............! :)
-
....... and :cupcake: ? ;)
Lovely :sunny: until 2.30 then the heavens opened :o
-
Freezing! Heating about to go on again. :(
-
Freezing - about to light fire :-\
-
Heavy rain last night and on & off this morning, from 11 onwards sunny spells, warm, now skies are grey again
-
Yet more wind and rain for most of the day - hollyhocks are ruined :(.
However the sun has now come out so time for some gardening tomorrow!
Hurdity x
-
April showers ::)

Seems like all season's in one day...well apart from snow ❄ !

-
Thanks girls !!😁
-
You're very welcome :lol: maybe we'll get an Indian Summer? ::)
-
better now but the garden loved the rain over the last few days. It is looking much better in time for hubby's birthday events in a few weeks, much less dried up :)
-
Oh I do hope so CLKD!
-
Torrential rain this morning lots of localised flooding on the way to work this morning.
When the rain finally stopped the sun came out and it was a lovely warm afternoon but it's raining again now and feels quite cool.
Lanzalover x
-
Lovely to see you Lanzalover >wave< - the sun is pouring onto my aching bones right now and it's so soothing :)
-
Thanks CLKD
I have been looking in just haven't posted for a while.
Hope you'll soon feel better I understand the weather is supposed to be improving over the next couple of days ( fingers crossed)
Lanzalover x
-
Blowing a hooley here. Wind whistling in the window. Tempted to close it, but like fresh air at night.
-
It is so dull we have the lights on around the house :sigh: ........ grey clouds scudding. Light drizzle. Birds flying backwards!
-
Well I don't often get to say :P our weather is better than yours so let me have my moment please ;D
Good old NI is looking might beautiful today! Think I'll take nephew and niece ( who've had a sleepover with me) down the coast - doggies as well.
garden needs attention - but I'm ignoring it today ;)
-
Oh do enjoy the coast, can you get onto a beach? I saw a film across NI recently and thought 'we would like it there', same as with the IofMan - but it means flying :-\
-
I'm a mile away from the coast - :) think I'll do ards peninsula - it's lovely on a nice day like this.
Can't you do the boat?
-
DaisyB any chance of sending some to NE Scotland. ;D Dull here again. Beginning to forget what 🌞 looks like. As for heat, well ........... ::)
-
:sunny: Just for you ;)
-
Yeah! Made my day. :)
-
Dull and gently rainy. Unusual for here as it is usually too dry or *&*%"?~ing it down.
-
Now it's ☔. :(
-
Been dull and chilly this morning. But, 🌞 is trying to make an appearance.
-
Boats and I don't mix DaisyB - going across the Solent was far enough ;D
Brightening up :)
-
What a shame CKLD- such a short journey too :-\ having said that I'm not great on boats either. Been years since I did the larne Stranraer - anti sickness wrist bands just made me look silly and had no effect ;D
-
Cloudy, windy & cold 15°c but I've just looked out the window it's now clear skies and wind has dropped - why couldn't it have been like this during the day!
-
Dull and damp.
-
Snap, and off to Whitby tomorrow and forecast for rain :(
-
Whitby is lovely in the rain ;D apparently, we loved Robin Hoods Bay ;-)
Dull
Chilly
-

Dull

I think we have been in every weather possible but always have a fab time, maybe get my pennies ready for the arcades 😬Xxx
-
Miserable! Drizzly since first thing. They promised a decent day! :'(
-
After a cold cloudy morning, the sun has made an appearance, it's lovely and warm with a very slight breeze. Nice to feel warm again well for one day if forecast is right for tomorrow!
-
Beautiful afternoon - line full of washing out and now I'm worried it will rain overnight :-\
-
Yesterday was glorious, almost too hot at times - drizzling hard now ::)
-
Torrential rain! :(
-
It rained :'( washing all brought back for rinsing :-\
Rained all night and morning - brighter and warmer now :sunny:
-
Cool, dull and a bit blowy
-
Cloudy start to day, rained in middle part of day, suddenly at around 1pm the sun came out along with high humidity, too hot walking in a jumper!!!
-
Sunshine middle of the afternoon, then it began blowing, hard .........
-
🌞🌞🌞 After this morning's ☔
-
Sunshine then showers this morning - no idea what to wear as hot one minute and cold the next ::)
-
Same here Salad ::) wore raincoat and scarf to walk dogs along shore - sun came up and everything came off 😜
-
Can't make it's mind up here either.
-
Think we just had a weeks worth of rain in ten mins xx
-
It's rained on and off all day some of the showers have been really heavy and it's cold 🙁
Lanzalover x
-
Weather here can't make it's mind up! One minute ☔ then 🌞

Same here Yorkshiregirl :-\ mustered up the energy to cut grass whilst dry - stepped outside and heavens opened- lucky break ::) DH can do it at weekend ;D
-
🌞 has arrived. ;D
-
Can you send it my way pleaseeeeeeeee
Lanzalover x
-
DaisyB managed to walk the 5 mile round trip to butchers this morning, got back just as the heavens opened & rushed to get the washing in.
-
Yorkshire girl I did half a mile after McDonald's breakfast ::) my junk for the month ;D I downloaded an app called fit 8 - sets daily programme for returning to physical activity and also diet on the paid version. After 8 minutes two days ago I haven't been able to navigate stairs without swearing since yesterday ;) 5 miles!!! What an achievement :) we'll done to you- hopefully I'll be saying that in couple of months ;)
-
Warmish, sun off and on.
The neighbourhood killing machine has struck again - the garden is full of pigeon feathers. I am starting to feel sorry for them >:(
-
Some 🌞, some ☁. Looks like we might get ☔.
-
Started off sunny but by mid morning it turned dull grey cold and wet ! What's going on?
Lanzalover x
-
Same here 13 degrees!
-
Rain's started splotting down again here and it's 17 degrees.
-
Chucking it down all day ☔
-
Lovely morning sun, cloud & warm then rained most of the afternoon, a rather soggy walk!
-
Up and down all day - but a beautiful evening. :sunny:
-
A dry day at last with ⛅ but still a chilly windy
-
Well, it was really muggy and a bit too warm without being hot if you see what I mean.
Then is started to rain so I had to shut the doors and couldn't breathe, and wasn't sure if it was me or the weather. ::)
Then it rained properly and now I'm too cold. :-\
-
Never happy are we dahliagirl.
Showers earlier, but sunny spells now. Not roasting though.
-
POURED overnight. Bright sunshine and breezy but one Music Festival had to be cancelled due to mud :o
-
🌞 & ☁ but pleasantly warm.
-
Drizzling heavily again ::)
-
Warm ... cold and rainy ....warm...cold and rainy ::) fire lit - patio doors flung open when sun comes out.
-
So a bit mixed then. ;D
-
🌞 and ☁ warm though despite the wind. Now it's started ☔
-
Same here sparkle & I'm fed up with it.
-
Well I think we will both be in the same boat again tomorrow sparkle.
Forecast is pretty much the same for our neck of the woods. I shall have to give you some more cryptic clues to ponder over. ;D ;D
Cazi x

Windy. Expecting rain at 3pm.

Drizzling hard >:( and I had SO much planned :-\

Still drizzling - hard
Still have laundry on the line - dripping
Still have cold feet ..... despite socks :P
-
A dry cloudy day, fed up with the wind! Sun came out late afternoon but humid, still nice now!
-
Been a bit rain-y and drizzley all day, but it's dried up now and we've got some late evening sun.
-
A miserable wet day but warmish - didn't stop my husband and I being trainspotters and popping along to our village station to watch the Dorset Coast Express steam train zoom past :)
-
Was beautiful here yesterday then the rain came in night ☹
-
Looks like its still making up its mind this morning ::)
-
Drizzling hard :'(

Still confused :-\

U or the weather? If it's you, there's a thread here somewhere 8)

It is SO windy here this afternoon. Dull start then got very warm indeed and then the wind picked up. Everything is swirling round in my garden and I have washed a big quilt and that's like a billowing sail.
-
Is it well weighted Pennyfarthing? Hopefully my laundry will dry enough in the blustery wind to bring inside later!
-
Wrapped in a blanket under a brolley ? :D
let me have my moment😂 It's a rare occasion to have better weather than anywhere else😇
-
Whay hey a dry day still blowing a hooley out there but at least we've had some decent sunny spells in amongst the cloud!
-
Decidedly cooler this afternoon, I even put a sweater on. It's dry and very little wind. With luck it stays that way, I might actually get some gardening done.
-
Another mixed up day - :-\ but the sunny spells were lovely and I got to walk the beach again 😍
-
Some very dark sky coming over from the north west. I rather think it's going to chuck it down very soon....... :-\

Yorkshire Girl, that reminds me of a day at work about twenty years ago, when I was a visiting music teacher at a grammar school. It was a very warm day in early July and all the windows in the staff room were open. After a bit, the wind got up - and I mean, really got up, so much so that everything started to blow around the room. Being a school, of course this meant papers and work books - lots and lots of them! Everyone's best laid piles of anything made of paper was swirling around this big staff room and landing anywhere but where it started out! I often wonder how long it took to get it all back into order.....
-
It's been really windy; blustery; sunny; a mix of all 3 then flat calm .......... Summer then?
-
Looking forward to the heatwave ;D my sis tells me it's on the cards but I'm not holding my breath ::)
-
It's on mainland Europe apparently, 40C+ :o
Raining here - again, must be School Hols. ;)
-
Oh god Dulciana having good old giggle over that little story!
Blue skies early on then yes wind got up clouds forming, chilly at times but pleasant in the sun out of wind, in evening clouds disappeared lovely clear skies. Some decent summer weather wouldn't go amiss!
-
Blustery so laundry is drying
One or two spots of drizzle passed over
Not as chilly as on Friday although I had my electric blanket on all night :-\
-
CKLD I'm cold in the house, have to wear my cosy hoodie that usually only comes out in winter!!
It started off a lovely day light breeze, sunny & it felt warm by lunchtime cloudy, really windy! Getting fed up of this now it's supposed to be summer not autumnal! Why can't southern Europe send some of their heat our way!
-
None of the hot temperatures Europe is experiencing is coming our way.
August is going to be a washout. :(

Cold and wet :(

Sunny this morning, a few clouds bubbled up this afternoon, and guess what barely a breeze hooray :)

Nearly 3 days of continual rain until this morning, woke to brilliant blue sky and sunshine ......... bliss.

We had rain over-night. Yesterday Himself and I 'righted' a leaning tower of a Barrel and it was almost full this morning, well used on a dry border under some trees today.
It's been lovely. Sunny. Breesy. Comfortable.

Sunny to start, clouded over in afternoon, very breezy

No snow though YG?
It's dark, can't see ;-)

It was nice. Then down it came. Got somewhat soggy going from garden center to car. Meal was good though and I picked up a few things. Got home to find 4 very soggy cats, all most unimpressed :cat88: They wanted feeding :cat48:

Well it was a glorious proper summer's day this morning - lovely warm sunshine - (Yesss - vest top and short shorts weather again :) ) but very windy and now it's clouded over and looking dark and threatening so I've come inside ....

Sunshine all day, 23°c a proper summers day apart from the breeze :)

Has summer arrived now just a little late?!! Beautiful day yesterday and for once the wind had done a disappearing act, but the wind arrived back again today with sun/cloud warm. Would like it to continue but do away with the wind!

Warm on Wed.. Dull Thursday. Warmer yesterday and after over-night drizzle, dull followed by :sunny: It is so muggy and no air. Can't have windows open as someone has a party with throbbing drums >:(

From Wild Birds thread - question came up of the date of the autumn equinox.... ENJOY or IGNORE depending on your inclination ;D
Equinoxes and dates of seasons - for any interested - link followed by extracts!!
https://www.metoffice.gov.uk/learning/learn-about-the-weather/when-does-autumn-start
"When is the first day of autumn?
It depends on whether you are referring to the astronomical or meteorological autumn.
We often talk about it beginning to feel like autumn when the nights start to drawn in and temperatures start feeling cooler.
There are two separate dates which could be said to mark the start of autumn in calendars. One is defined by the Earth's axis and orbit around the sun and the second is a fixed date which is used by meteorologists for consistent spacing and lengths of the seasons.
Meteorological season
The meteorological autumn begins on 01 September 2017 and ends on 30 November 2017.
The meteorological seasons consists of splitting the seasons into four periods made up of three months each. These seasons are split to coincide with our Gregorian calendar making it easier for meteorological observing and forecasting to compare seasonal and monthly statistics. By the meteorological calendar, the first day of autumn is the 1 September.
The seasons are defined as Spring (March, April, May), Summer (June, July, August), Autumn (September, October, November) and Winter (December, January, February).
Astronomical season
This astronomical autumn begins on 22 September 2017 and ends on 21 December 2017.
The astronomical calendar determines the seasons due to the 23.5 degree tilt of the Earth's rotational axis in relation to its orbit around the sun. Both equinoxes and solstices are related to the Earth's orbit around the sun.
Solstices and equinoxes are considered to be the astronomical transition points between the seasons and mark key stages in the astronomical cycle of the earth. In a year there are two equinoxes (spring and autumn) and two solstices (summer and winter). The dates of the Equinox and Solstice aren't fixed due to the Earth's elliptical orbit of the sun. The Earth's orbit around the sun means that in early January, the sun is closest (known as perihelion) and in early July it is most distant (aphelion).
On the autumn equinox, day and night are of roughly equal length and the nights will become increasingly longer than the days until the spring equinox when the pattern is reversed.
It also marks the time of year when the northern hemisphere begins to tilt away from the sun resulting in less direct sunlight and consequently the cooling temperatures.":
Here's another link describing why the equinoxes etc fall on different days each year (to do with earth's tilt):

Lovely weather all day with slight drizzle in the air. Washing blowing in the breeze.
-
Sunshine but a cool wind - bit of drizzle earlier on, and as always my husband calls - it's raining - at the first sight of drizzle, so I rush out to get the washing in - only to find it stops. Washing still damp - but can't be bothered to hang it all out again!!!! ::)

Some sun here.
Now I am going to have to count the days until December 21st when it gets lighter again >:( I hate it when it gets darker and darker.
-
I LOATHE Winter. I would hibernate from 1st December until mid-Feb..
-
I'm I hate winter too, I really feel the cold so walk found tense all the time which makes me ache. It doesn't help we have had a handful of hot days here in the north. Xxx
-
I wear layers. Wool is better than man-made fibres. Lots of gloves, wooly hats, thick socks ...... good quality slippers. Electric blanket ...... why would I want to get out of bed in the Winter ;D
-
I no, wish I was rich and had a lovely villa somewhere warm I could go to in the winter months. I nor,ally walk round the house when it's cold with a hot water bottle down my pants 😂Xxx
-
Maybe a menopause Villa in the Italian Lakes then? Then into somewhere warm from November?
-
Now that sounds like my dream 😍
-
I'm just getting into my element so to speak - Autumn and the promise of Winter on the way just makes me feel complete somehow. As some people get that little shiver of excitement when the earth begins to stir in Spring I get the same feeling as the plants and trees give a sigh of a job well done and settle down for a rest in Autumn. :D

Today it's been lovely :sunny:

Flooding in Borrowdale :o
Drizzling and dull here but not cold
-
Lots of flooding around Borrowdale. Went up in to Martindale when it stopped raining this afternoon. Ullswater lapping very close to the road and so much water coming off the hills heading that way
-
Next week, I believe that it's ? 40 ? years since the big storm of Oct 87 ...... when 7 oaks became 1 :-\
-
Absolutely awful in the Lakes. Lots of fields under water and the lakes and rivers are dangerously high
-
Saw about Borrowdale mid-week!
However: for 2 days it's been lovely .........
Thanks Hope - maths not my bestest subject :-\ ::) - we were with friends that night and drove through 16 miles of high winds at mid-night, went to bed: woke around 6.30 to hear the loudest winds we had ever heard, back to sleep - saw the news later that day we were both working then. Sadly a colleague's son was crushed under a tree that night :'(
-
Glorious sunshine today - what a wonderful autumn day. We haven't had enough rain down here though this season....I'm sure it will come soon!
Hurdity x

Sorry to hear about your colleagues son CLKD. Good day here. Very mild. Cut back some of the flowers to tidy up the garden after walk in to town for weekend paper. Actually got washing dry on the line too
-
It was an awful time .........
Today it's been lovely and 2morrow high temperatures are forecast - 20C or above :o
-
Rain threatened all day but didn't come so went for my walk and did some more cutting back
-
Today the weather is ... red! According to the BBC, it's due to a combination of Saharan dust and debris from the wild fires in Portugal being dragged in by the remnants of Hurricane Ophelia (which is currently giving Ireland an absolute battering). I'm sure the orange/red will clear when the wind arrives later, but for now it's decidedly odd!
-
Scarey it's so dark a can hardly see a thing with fog.
-
Very pink/sepia here. The red sun earlier was spectacular. The wind has arrived but the street lights have come on. Very gloomy but so atmospheric. Hope our Irish members are staying safe.

It's been amazing. here in SW England we woke to a dark and threatening sky and everywhere glowing yellow but no sun. The darkness and glow continued until mid-morning when the clouds were clearing to show the incredible sun changing from red to pink to orange with many layers of clouds going past at different speeds. By late morning clouds had cleared completely and most of the afternoon we've had normal weather - with brilliant warm sunshine but a bit windy - nothing unusually strong though - so far just the first autumn gale. I guess the sun/dust effect has gradually moved across UK as the dust passes through :)

Sun is pouring into the lounge from a bright blue sky. Have been further North by 70+ miles where the sky was yellow - another 2 months and it would be snowing from a sky like that ::) - and the sun was red. A bit like it was on the day of the eclipse.

So many flooded areas here once again but today has been absolutely beautiful. Doesn't help the poor people that are once again out of their homes
-
-1 now.

Snow in parts of the North. 'once again out of their homes'? One has to ask why. Why do LA's allow building on Flood Plains: a HUGE problem down here even when the Environment Authority advises, at great expense to the Tax Payer, NOT to build in those areas: or don't take precautions B4 allowing Plans to be passed - checking river banks and flow-off and how much new builds will slow down water torrents. Also the constant alteration of building over front gardens has a massive effect on flooding Because there is no soak away so rain runs off, into drains that can't cope with extra input.
It happened in our street, built in the 1960s. No problems, rain drained/soaked away. Then 4 new houses, costing £K950 each were built which meant a quarter of an acre garden was paved over. No run off except into a very small drain on their side of the road, which filled into a culvert under the main road allowing water into the drain behind our house. Which filtered into the drains in front of our properties which couldn't cope. I complained LOUDLY and steps were taken!!! At first the building company said that they weren't responsible so I asked them to prove how! because in those 40 odd years the drains had coped.
Cold. Sharp frost. Dark clouds. Could be snow.
-
Very cold and frosty here this morning and even colder tonight, but better than the floods all those poor people are having again, i feel so sorry for them ,especially at this time of year ,so cold
There seems to be a lot of flooding everywhere in the world these days
-
It's the time of year sadly. Add to that, humans don't seem to have learned where not to and what to build with to enable people to remain safe!
This morning is bright, cold, lovely for a walk ;-)

4 inches of snow today. So pretty. Hubby, son and I walked through our local country park which looked so beautiful. It was nice to have son with us as he doesn't grace us with his company very often. Even though he and his Dad had great fun taking the Mickey out of me when I said I couldn't understand how there could be puddles on hills😂😂😂. Had a hot drink in the little cafe before walking back to lovely warm house and lazy cat.
If I could easily post a photo or two I would but I find it a bit of a faff.

I think she would, given the circumstances and that I am reliable. I'd planned to go to my daughters today who lives the same way as my job and she pleaded with me not to do it because of the treacherous conditions. I will give it a go in the morning but won't carry on if I'm too scared or too snowed in . It doesn't help that it'll be dark and there's ditches galore and trees x

Oh Annie0710 please stay home. As the temperatures drop tonight it will make the roads even more dangerous so early in the morning

It can be -??? without being stuck, we walked everywhere that Winter. I think that snow is best on C.mas cards or on the top of the Pyrenees :D. Himself has gone out 'in it' again as he needs a plumbing 'bit' ........ Hopefully that cloud won't be more snow !

that's worse than snow on snow :o - pretty but lethal!
Sleeting here. Fresh air. Grey.
-
Quite a few roads impassable due to black ice and now thick thick fog to add to travellers woes
-
We just didn't get any snow at all - nowhere near here :(. We just had gales and rain. Well we had one morning of icy roads and icy cars and that was it! Last few days it's been sunny but cold though - now getting milder. So boring!!! I was envious of the fun and dramatic landscapes seeing it all on the news!

Cold and rainy ::) Carol services in cold rainy places with wet muddy fields to park in :( Not Christmassy.

I agree Hasty. There is still snow laying around, even where the :sunny: has been shining. The road outside my house remained crackly until yesterday, despite :sunny:. I am SO pleased that my Mum is 'safe' in a care home ! Had she been in and out feeing the birds in her garden :-\ :-X
There is a large lump of snow in our back garden. Waiting for more? We had to de-ice the windows on our car this morning, took 20 mins., one window no longer opens :o :(. - because of ice last week, the mechanism has failed, fortunately with the window closed :-\. More expense, more time to spend getting it to the Dealership which of course, closes over the Fesitive Season. Hopefully the mechanism will remain 'locked', or what ever the problem might be.
Today it's been foggy. Intermittently as we drove across Northmapontshire, Leicestershire and beyond ........ grey, dull, cold ......... Snow is OK on C.mas cards or on top of the Pyrenees!
-
Everything is white with a heavy frost this morning - proper wintry feel - and the mornings are so dark - but we are almost at the Solstice ..... :)

I got up and made a cuppa at 4.00, checked the cat that lives outside in a box ........ she is fine. Gale began to die down at 5.44 a.m. . Breezy now. Blue sky. Sunny.

Hi Daisydot
Thanks for asking unfortunately not the antibiotics don't seem to have had much effect on my cough although I do feel better in my self although I am very tired went to my Mums for dinner last night and she was going on about going back to the doctors and how I shouldn't be at work with a cough like mine DH had also been nagging me to go back since I finished the antibiotics as I am keep him awake with the coughing I have been up sine just after 4am due to coughing !!!! so as I have a day off today think I'll go to the walk in centre. Bet your wishing you hadn't asked now lol.
As to the weather haven't looked outside yet still dark at the moment but cann't hear any rain.
May go back too bed for a couple of hours as starting to feel tired now.

You did make me chuckle CLKD. My husband has taken cars up for tourists that have come to a standstill and do not know what to do. Worse on Hardnott though

Horrible grey cold day here.wish I'd stayed in bed 😂

R U part of the 4x4 recovery group? that go to disasters across the UK to haul people out?
Dull now but the day in general has been sunny and bright.

Frosty overnight.
Sun came out for a couple of hours mid morning but it's been cold all day.
Lanzalover
-
No but we could be one for the passes here CLKD. Must admit I let other half do the driving if passes are on the agenda as I would probably be as bad as the tourists having been brought up a towny. He is good about it though and doesn't smirk or comment until he is back in our car
-
Some snow, now gone. Sunnyish and 4.2 degrees.
Could be worse :)
-
Snow forecast >:(. After a bright day the sky is black, wind has dropped so washing limp on the line.
-
We had some snow when I woke up this morning, then it went. It is probably the best way. :bounci: <---snowman
-
Keep it :-\ - I have too much to do this week to be snowed in anywhere!
-
Bright day today and it didn't feel particularly cold.
Snow forecast overnight ( fingers crossed it doesn't arrive )
Lanzalover
-
It is a bit cold here. We have had some light snow showers with nothing lying. Nice sun in between. I was driving home from the dentist thinking how bright and cheerful it looked. :)
-
Beautiful day here today had a few drops of snow earlier but didn't come to much.the sky's a lovely blue so maybe it'll continue nice to be nice hope so.xx
-
Got up find it was snowing snowed on and off until 3pm but luckily it hasn't stuck as the the ground was so wet.
It has however turned very cold since it stopped snowing.
Hoping for a mild dry day tomorrow fingers crossed ;D

Same here was lovely but got very windy then snow flurries I'm tucked up again for an hour with my hot water bottle lol.

Hail. Hate hail >:(

Hail here as well plus it's bitterly cold ❄️❄️❄️
Lanzalover

Another pink cloud evening here :) Much better than hail :)
-
Had to de-ice the car this morning and the roads were very icy and there must have been an accident on the motorway as the A road I use was busier than usual.
The ice was around until mid morning when the sun came out and by the time I was coming home the roads were very wet, but the sky here was also very pink.
Hope we don't get ice (or snow) tomorrow.

It's looking a bit nasty out there just now makes me not want to get up when it's like this lol very windy here and bleak looking.

I've only had a quick look out the window this morning it's not looking good out there car will definitely need de-iced this morning brrr ❄️❄️❄️❄️ I've had enough of this weather now but seems we're not going to get any let up for the next few days.
I have decided I'm living in wrong country ;D
Lanzalover

I am definitely in the wrong country. Getting fed up with snow, sleet, rain, high winds, below zero temperatures. Snowing again at the moment with a strong
wind
-
Herdwick: snow is lovely on the top of the Pyrenees ;-)
Grey sky here. haven't stopped outside but it looks cold.
-
Bitterly cold, windy and wet snow/rain ... wish I was at home in the warm instead of stuck in an office with metal window frames - the cold 'falls off' the window frames and when combined with the warm air from the heating outlets in the ceiling those of us 'lucky' enough to sit by the window spend all day with a cold draught around our feet!
I too am totally fed up with cold and dark - it's really getting to me now :-\
-
Scampi - maybe get a large block of polystyrene and put under your feet. Even if it means lifting up your work station. We use it, or bubble wrap, when at antique fairs .......... the bubble wrap of course, can be drawn up round the waist and shoulders ;-)

Wet and windy >:(
-
Wet windy and miserable grey,just another day 😉

Sunny. The pigeons are sitting in the trees, against a blue sky with a few puffs of cloud. They are bouncing around in the wind a bit. ;D

Snowed until 10.30 then the sun came out the temp rose and it was dare I say it quite warm by and the snow started to thaw. 1pm sun disappeared sky turned black and it started snowing again stopped at about 3pm but it has remained bitterly cold. Hope that's the last of it but somehow I doubt it.

Got our white out this morning,home day for me I think suppose I'll use it to catch up on a few housey jobs,lucky me 😂😂
-
At 7.30am this morning our outside thermometer read -10.4. Yes, that is a minus number. I'm sure some of the ladies up in Scotland will not find that a surprising temperature but this is West Kent!!. My sister, who lives just under the North Downs has more snow than us. Around 2 feet on their drive.
Crazy weather :cuss:
-
Left London Monday lunchtime in the snow. All trains offering your ticket for any train on your route to get people home. Euston station much busier than usual for a Monday lunchtime. Got back to The Lakes in beautiful sunshine but since then in has snowed off and on and now we have a lot of the white stuff and it is bitterly cold. The hills from our lounge window do look beautiful though
-
The Lakes is lovely what ever the weather - photos.?
Smattering in the early hours
Bright sunshine, grey cloud, bright sunshine ::)
Not as chilly

Grey again. Fluttery bits of soft snow falling.
-
About 10 flakes of snow yesterday, it looked like white feathers floating around otherwise sunny but bitter. The weather forecast says we might get snow tomorrow and Friday ::)

Bitterly cold today and it's just started snowing again.
Forecast to get worse tomorrow and Friday.

-10 is balmy ;D. When 'Wales was cut off' it went down to -24! No electric for a week. We had a strip light and car battery so had light, can't remember why we had a car battery in the house ::) ........ but it worked.
-
Definately worse today still snowing here.I can see traffic from windows though so roads can't be too bad and our schools are still open.another home day for me I get stir crazy if I have 2 or 3 home days in a row 🤪
-
I can hear the traffic on the main road. Flurries of soft snow everywhere ::).
-
7 inches for me, snow day as my work place is closed!
I don't like the snow should I think it should be kept to ski slopes and Christmas cards 😂
-
Still flurries here it was melting a couple of hours ago then restarted >:(
Shellb agree 100% 😁
-
Snow is lovely: viewed from a sun terrace whilst looking up at the Pyrenees!
Soft sticky stuff, swirling.
-
Coldest day so far I've never experienced a wind as cold as it is today temp has not got above freezing all day. Snow flurries on and off all day but it is now snowing very hard and per the forecast will continue until mid morning tomorrow fingers crossed it doesn't get as bad as they are predicting.

...still waiting for the big cover everything snowflakes :bounci:

Many years ago: 199-something or other: we took our :scottie: for a walk. We had two layers of everything on, even hats and gloves! It was FREEZING but blue sky and dry. Slippery under foot. We had a photo somewhere of me and the dog sitting in front of a fountain ...... she was young and didn't seem to feel the cold, never said 'no' to a walk unless she could smell rain 8)
This cold is nowt like it was that Sunday/Monday. Can't remember which month. Probably into the New Year. Now it's that soft snow which is sticking dusk arrives.
-
It's terrible here now still snowing.im staying put 😁
-
Can't see: dark so curtains are shut ;)
-
Yay - we had snow at last! Lovely! Swirling and cold as storm Emma arrives. Went for a fantastic snowy walk in our wild woods along deserted lanes with out neighbours. Absolutely fabulous. Now we expect another 18 hours of it here I think! Roads are deserted now as we become snowed in :). All is quiet.....

CLKD. How do I attach a photograph please?

Sorry Herdwick, :D - that's technical ::) - look forward to seeing some though!

Oh well never mind CLKD thanks anyway

About 1" all told. Chilly wind. Swirling snow off the rooftops this morning. Birds busy etc., etc., etc. ::)

Still snowing where's it all coming from lol

cold, windy, more snow, ice :rant:

Any advance on the 7" that Shellb has? Is there a prize ;D :medal:
After a break in which it rained for 10 mins. that fine snow is falling steadily. Again. No travelling for us tomorrow then.
Not getting mail on a regular basis. Due to it being stuck where it shouldn't be, trucks stuck etc. ::)
-
Yesterday we had the most beautiful icicles which appeared everywhere due to the frozen rain on top of the snow and freezing surfaces. Every fence and gate, and every plank had a frill of icicles along its whole length and every twig and leaf coated in a layer of ice - I've never seen anything like it in my life and doubt I will again! They appeared overnight, lasted the whole of yesterday and this morning ahd all gone as temepratures rose above freezing for the first time for days.
Magical!
Hurdity x :)
-
I remember when I was about 4 years old, walking with Granny along the lane underneath the snow drift. The tractor - no plows in those days - had been through taking fodder to the beasts and had left an arch way. The sun shone through, it was magical. In Norfolk they have high hedges so the roads are quite low with banks of primroses .......... it took our breath away.
We often had icicles off the roofs when I was growing up. We used to take bits off to suck :-X ...... until Dad showed us the moss int he drain pipes but I'm still here ;D. Has anyone looked at the BBC News pages for localities to see the 'photos that people have sent in, it can waste a few hours each day ;D
It's crunchy snow today. 5" outside our house. Misty. Dull. Glad that I'm not getting married today, there are men clearing the paths near our Church for a Service at 1.00 a.m. ::)
-
Could that have been the 'Big Freeze' of 1963. I can't really remember it although I would have been coming up to 7 at the time. My husband can though.
-
I can remember that, we went skating on the rivers for weeks and there was a swan stuck in the ice: we fed it bread but I can't remember what happened to it, other than men tried to keep the water de-iced around it as much as possible. Somewhere I have 'photos. The school field was flooded and my Dad and another School Master made skates for the kids to tie onto their boots ....... and the milk, anyone remember it in 8th of a pint bottles, stood inside by the fire so that the ice stuck up then melted, YUK! That was the year that blue tits learned to take the foil off the bottles to drink the cream.
Then there was the Winter when "Wales was cut off" - around 1981. We walked the 5 miles to and from work, which meant dressing in full hiking gear, taking a shovel each, biscuits; up and down two large hills, at times walking over vehicles but we didn't know at the time ::). Fortunately after the initial storm the sun shone but as soon as the sky darkened in the afternoon, we headed home again. I can't remember how long the walk took, I do know that I wouldn't even consider it these days!
We had 4" in early December here ..........
-
I remember 1981 well. The big freeze.I was heavily pregnant and we lived in a beautiful little cottage and went to visit family in Glasgow for the weekend and the weather was atrocious.when we got back home the central heating heating system had collapsed pipes all burst,all the ceilings were down and because of the concrete floors the water had no where to go so when we opened the front door the water came racing out along with all our belongings,it was like a tap had been turned on in the loft.it had to be the worst Christmas with a three year old we'd ever had I'm surprised I didn't go into early labour too.Luckily we had insurance but I don't think I'll ever forget that one.we were young enough to take it in our stride but god if that happened now!! I don't know how all these poor souls that get flooded year after year cope it must be sound destroying.
-
OH! did you remain in the cottage :-\ ???
Grey. Birds busy. Etc., etc., etc.. Watching pro triathlon from Abu Dhabi ......... rain there even which is causing some tumbles ::)

A foot of snow here. I was in the red alert area. Had a mini avalanche off the roof last night which took down all 3 of my external lights! Hopefully I will get an electrician by the end of the month. Can't get the car out of the garage. Had a go today with the neighbour but the snow is too deep and I have a 50yd lane to get up before I get to the road. No chance of me being able to clear the lane of a foot of snow! The neighbours have been out clearing the road this morning so cars can get down to the village and out. Guess I am going to be housebound for quite a few days yet. NO tv as the snow has damaged the dish as well! At least I have power! Snow ploughs and gritters have been concentrating on the main roads which I think are now clear. Will have to make an expedition tomorrow on foot down to the village shop to see if they have any fresh supplies.
On the plus side, I have got lots done in the house! But seem to be eating all the time!

Damp, but the wind chill has gone :) . Compared to the rest of the country we had at most half an inch of snow and that was very patchy.
Went to the local out of town shopping centre this morning morrisons had no milk no fish and just a few loaves of bread, not that I wanted any I also noticed McDonalds was closed ???
-
Yes CLKD we had to it was bloody freezing everything had to be cut out and dumped you couldn't dry out the rotten carpets, we lived in one room and it was just before Christmas so we still put a tree up for the toddler 😂 we survived as best we could.
-
Oh have a :hug: Daisydot.
Thawing although the teens next door are making a snow-person. Has anyone looked at the various ideas across the UK on the BBC web-site?
Dull. Well Kentucky Fried closed recently because they couldn't get chicken :-\. Does it say on the Macdonald's site? Maybe lack of staff.

Beautiful morning here we have had breakfast on the balcony and DH now sunbathing!
Hope the weather improves for you all back home soon.

Thawing. Fast!

It's melting here but that's the part I hate, all manky slush everywhere,so glad you managed to get away ok xx

Lovely day today we had a nice blue sky and sun streaming in lounge cats loved it,so pleased to be able to get out for an hour this morning.xx

The :sunny: came out from a blue sky earlier :)

I can rember the winter of 1963 it snowed on Boxing Day and lasted until nearly Easter.
I started school in the January of 1963 and my poor Mum had to walk me to school along with my brother who was nearly three and my sister who would have been 17 months every morning then back home only to have to come back at lunchtime as you went home for lunch in those days when you first started school then back to school/home for her/then back to collect me at home time she still talks about it now she says she felt she spent the first three months of 1963 trailing three children back and forth in snow and ice.
I still rember the hot Ribenna we used have after school each day while the three of us huddledup on the settee in front of the real fire.
Strangely I cann't really rember the winter of 1981 neither can DH but that was the year we got married so we probably had other things to keep us occupied ;D .
It's been a another lovely day here in Lanzarote have got the beginning of a lovely tan.

We went into school and stayed all day - I HATED it. Better in my Secondary School as we did music and drama ;)

Lovely sunny day here.
Lanzalover x

Another great day I like it when it's not raining at least I can walk if I want to.x
-
It's been a lovely day here (been stuck in the office, of course!), but now it's turning cooler and windy .... so my run tonight will be horrible (I hate wind). Not looking forward to the return of 'The Beast' this weekend - utterly and completely fed up of cold, damp weather now. Where is Spring (and I know it regularly snows at Easter - doesn't mean I'm not fed up of it!!).
-
Nice enough to sit on the patio with a cuppa. Wind keen. Need a couple of thick layers on.
-
Much cooler here today with a very cold wind
Forecast for the weekend not looking good.
When's it going to end :( I've had enough now.

Dull wet and cold.

Fairly bright and warm at the moment but rain coming later and Amber warning for snow tomorrow :(

Beautiful sunshine this morning and very mild,cats are sunbathing on lounge carpet lol enjoy it will you can Moggies lol.xx
-
Dull and cold all day, and getting colder. Amber warning for snow for the weekend, and my daughter, niece and I are supposed to be going to a wedding fair on Sunday ... the plan is for daughter and I to pick niece up from her home (45 minute drive in good weather, high up a Pennine hill!), then drive to the fair (over an hour in good weather). If the forecast is correct, we won't be going - and we were all really looking forward to it :(
-
Fingers crossed it scoots right past and not as bad as they say,we had a cracking day here today can't believe snows on its way hope not.x
-
Snowing now.
-
Had really high winds got snow now that's me in for the day x

Snow flurries

Blustery winds most of the day
Light sticky snow, most of the day
Dark now - won't look out until 11.00 when I head for my bath
A lot colder all day
-
Lovely soft fluffy flakes of snow swirling around and falling :). Daffodils in the garden just managing to peep through the blanket but disappearing soon!
Hurdity x
-
All manky slushy packed ice here now thank goodness it's thawing I tried to venture out earlier it was like a skating rink even with grit down it was still bad.roll on the spring weather.x
-
No more snow was forecast for my area but we have been in the middle of a blizzard for the past 3 hours. ::)
-
its Clearing nicely here hope it continues I want out :madeyes:lol
-
Did you get to the Wedding Fayre?
It snowed yesterday. 1" by morning. Thawed all day, slushy and mucky. Now snowing gently again ::)
-
Looks like it's melting here but very windy.x
-
Not much snow left but very cold wind.
-
Same here. Blue sky. Brisk wind. :sunny:
Clocks change at the weekend ;)
-
There was no way we were getting to that Wedding Fayre! The snow arrived with a vengeance Saturday tea-time - we decided about 9pm that the trip was a right-off. Got up yesterday to an average depth of about 5 inches (in some places it had drifted well over a foot deep, in others almost drifted clear) - most of it was still there when I left for work this morning, but now frozen solid. On the roads and footpaths where it had started to melt a little yesterday afternoon, it is sheet ice. No way I could get my car out this morning, so I had to walk to the railway station, picking my way over the ice via patches of undisturbed snow (safer to walk on/in than the ice). I really, really hope it's melted when I get home, but I'm not hopeful (btw - here at work, only 25 miles from home, there is none - not a flake!).
-
It's strange when there has been a lot but a few miles down the road there ain't any!
Sunny. Melting fast. That's the snow, by the way ;)
-
Better safe than sorry scampi you did the right thing not going there will be plenty more.shame about walking to work in it I feel so sorry for people travelling in that it's very scary,I'd be pulling sickies right left and centre lol.
Hope it's eased off by tonight for you it's clearing away lovely here and the forecast says sun for Tuesday so fingers crossed. Xx
-
Fairly bright day here all snow has disappeared but its bitterly cold 💨
Lanzalover

beautiful sunshine all day but icy cold wind. I looked outside and it looked glorious so I went out to hang out the washing without my coat. I lasted about 30 seconds. Got the whole BIG line of washing dry though. :)

Very sunny and roads all clear so I'm off out today lol.bet it's freezing.xx
-
A very beautiful springlike day today, he blizzards last week were horrendous, didnt go anywhere

Hi all.
It's too hot for me.
Makes me feel like I'm about to pass out if I get too hot.
Don't sweat much, just over heat, apparently, we've all got different amount
Of sweat glands on our bodies, some have more than others. I sadly, don't seem
to have many.. :(
I love the sun, but as I've got older I have to be careful.
No more lying out in it unless there's a nice breeze, and long cold drink.
Jd x
-
Lovely, just lovely!
Except I've been indoors all day at work!
-
Got up to 29 here.🌞
-
Far toooo hot for me.
:beaurk:
-
:(
Very grumpy...we are under sea mist and mizzle and appears the rest of the country in a heat wave.
I'm in jumper/scarf/jeans as it's soo chilly, but on the news everyone's eating ice cream and wittering on about the sun.
Let me out of here....
Pleeeeeeeease Sun Goddess make an appearance
-
I've got the fans on in house kernow it's cooking in here my cats are lying around like big hairy rag dolls lol.
-
And I so liked you before Daisydot ;) The mist has cleared not long ago, but too late for the sun.
I'm cuddling my dogs to keep warm....
And to think you're off to Lake Como too....I must have been very wicked in another life
Ciao Bella ;D
-
Sorry kernow was very naughty but I couldn't resist lol.arrivederci x( had to google that ) :rofl:
-
Hi everyone.
Have a pizza for me daisydot.
Hope you have great time.
If you bump into Gino decampo
(think that right)
Say hi from me. ;D
Yeah kernow,
Too hot for me, we should swap places. 8)
Jd x
-
Isn't it bizarre how different the weather can be in the UK.?
Grey skies and continual drizzle do get me down...silly really but I find it makes me sad.
Bit pathetic really ..
-
No kernow, we had a load rain and drizzle and the mist was terrible,
When I walked my dog at night you couldn't see the trees in the park.
It was cold and damp.
I was really fed up I hate the damp weather, it really gets into my bones, and I can't get warm
It was starting to get me down.
Then hey presto, we've got this now and it's gone too hot for me.
I like it no hotter than about 21/22.
So I'm looking forward to next week. Except for the rain. ;D
I'm sure your weather will change soon.
Jd x
-
Thanks Jd...will let you know if the yellow orb arrives :sunny:

-
PHEW! lovely 2-day in the shade ::). It is so sudden.
Years ago, I've been hot as toast inland, drove to the beach and 2 miles away, thick sea mist: couldn't see the water once we arrived >:(. Needed jumpers etc..
-
Warm and sunny here today, but not too much so. Fortunately. I like to be able to breathe! ;)
-
Smog from mainland Europe is forecast ............ spreading across the UK if this heat continues :hotflash:
-
Another fab day we are very lucky.
-
Weather much more tolerable for me today.
It's been about 21.
Thunderstorms tomorrow apparently.
Why doesn't that surprise me? ;D
Jd x
-
Warm .......... nice enough to sit outside with a cuppa .......... won't last though will it ::). Bank Holidays on the horizon :-\
-
Much better today,although I was a little too hot this morning
Running around doing stuff,
then we had a couple showers this afternoon and it's cooled right down now.
Just right for me.
;D
-
Do you mean you went and had a couple of showers Jd or the weather provided them? :lol: x
We've caught up with the rest of the UK.. a nice 20 degrees, warm see breeze ;)
-
Hi kernow
Well both really. Lol
I had a shower this morning after a hot and terrible nights sleep
I was just too hot, and was waking every hour or so just to get a breeze
Off my bedroom fan! :D
Then this afternoon the weather provided a couple showers, and at present too.
They say we got thunderstorms tonight and tomorrow, but I do love a good thunderstorm,
Weird I am...lol ::)
So glad for you that the weather picked up for you, it really lifts your mood doesn't it?
Hope you got out n about in it and enjoyed it.
Jd x

Horrible cold day here. 8c and grey skies. yesterday it rained ALL day. We always get the complete opposite of Scotland. I spoke to my Aunt last night and she had a lovely day in Stirlingshire. When we had the gorgeous weather the week before, she said it was horrible there.

But crikey, the cold wind took me off my feet earlier.

Miserable, grey, raining heavily, doesn't help one's dreary menopause mood - feel sorry for the wild creatures, feeding the birds and squirrels.

The end is nigh.⛈️

Snows on it's way I can smell it lol it's such a cold wind today.x☃️💨

On top of mountains I would expect snow ;-)

Yes I'm a bit ticked off about having to do that as apparently I've not to sunbathe while on the heavy dosage of ViT d3 for the next 6 weeks.you couldn't make this one up,all this rotten winter I've waited for sun and now I'm banned from enjoying it and I'm goin* to Benidorm on Thursday cruel cruel world :rofl:
-
Sit in the shade watching the waves would do it for me anyway. I wasn't to sit in the sun whilst having radiation treatment so bought a Very Large Hat ;-). - still warm :whist:
-
Feet paddling in water yep that'll do it for me ty xx
-
You could practice: boil some water, let it cool, find a bowl and a thick towel ??? 8)

Beautiful morning but it turned very grey at lunchtime and we had a couple of showers.
It's now cleared up the sun has reappared and it's a lovely evening although cooler than previous days so should be able to sleep better tonight.

Yet again a beautiful summer's day with barely a cloud - still 23 in the shade here, but the garden is parched as we haven't had any rain for days - saving all my waste water to throw about tubs, pots greenhouse, flowers, veg!

Heavy thunder storms predicted tomorrow :(
Lanzalover x
-
Well, we were predicted thunder this morning, then all last night, then just today at lunchtime, and now none, and the rain predictions are fizzling out.
However, it did rain overnight but it is cool and dull today.
The bumble bees are out though. :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :)
-
Poured overnight. Chilly. Drizzling.

This is fun if you like following thunder storms. None in the uk at the moment.
-
Himself watches that if storms are forecast ::)
-
Does he watch the aeroplanes too? :-X https://www.flightradar24.com/
-
Not yet but I would love an app to chart all those that fly over where we live ::) but that would mean updating our technology; apparently ;D
Still dull and drizzly. At least the plants will benefit as long as they don't have too many branches or leaves!
-
Yucky day today making my old bones ache lol
-
Love the flight tracker dahliagirl, I could get addicted to that ;D

-
It's rained nearly all day here.
Not long stopped, very murky looking.
Gone cool too.
Time to get the cardi out again....
-
Horrible day here rain from about 11.30am until 6.30pm and very heavy at times, it also went cold and very grey at lunch time more like November than May although we didn't get any thunder storms,
Weather forecast for the weekend is much better fingers crossed.
Lanzalover x
-
What's happened to my promised weather forecast here it's the exact opposite lol it's chucking it down grey and miserable,not the most encouraging start to the day xx
-
Sky is grey but it's mild and sun is trying to get through and best of all no rain.
Couldn't bear another day like yesterday ☔️ 💦 🌫 ☔️
Lanzalover x
-
Its a lovely 24c here. Hubby is cutting hedge and I'm advising!
-
Fuzzy and grey until mid-morning. We had lovely sunshine all afternoon.

Grey this morning had been warm this afternoon but not really sunny and there has been a breeze all day. Still much better than yesterday.
Lanzalover x
-
Rainy this morning but too warm for vest, t-shirt cardigan and raincoat :o
Sunny afternoon 8)
-
Amazing thunder ⚡ storm last night. More due tomorrow apparently.
-
I vaguely heard thunder and heavy rain in the early hours. Very hot this morning. Clouds supposedly bringing more rain.
-
Not my kind of day today very clammy and rains def on the way.
-
Hope we get a storm tonight, we didn't get a drop last night! One thing that calms me is a good summer storm xXx
-
Thunder has been rattling around for hours. Black sky at times. Warm enough to sit outside feeding the birds. Might need to find the candles :-\
-
We've had the lot tonight,the hailstones are huge battering our windows and rooftops my poor cats,two hiding under sofa terrified and two fascinated watching at the windows.i hate the stormy weather.
-
Crikey. Was that our Summer :-\ - but it always ends with a thunder storm. I remember watching the sky turn green at Hunstanton when I was about 11, Grandad took me to watch from the Cliffs. We could see the rain headed inland.
-
Really warm but thunder storms in afternoon.
Last nights thunder storm was brilliant.
So, so loud, lashed it down.
Only down side was it kept waking me up, feel rubbish today.
Jd x
-
It's still going strong here bet there's bad flooding tomorrow it's dredful.
That's a shame Jd keep yourself busy tonight catch up on all those crap jobs we all put off maybe?
Better still picture me sitting here bricking it in this storm,my false teeth chatteringg away on my sore tongue :rofl: :bighug:
-
Do they chatter in a glass of cold water on their won? ;)
Dark now, can't see.
-
No thunder here. They keep forecasting it but it misses :)
You get some really good thunder storms in Hunstanton, over The Wash. Impressive.
-
The Wash faces West ;-)
We had terrific storms there when we were kids.
-
Lovely day yesterday apart from one short heavy shower about 3.30pm.
But overnight we have had heavy rain and a terrific thunder storm,
This morning it's very calm and warm hopefully another lovely day.
Lanzalover x
-
After a shocking night of storms it's a horrible grey morning it makes me not want to get up when it's like this,I go into lazy mode lol.
-
fabulous morning here. Bright sunshine and really warm and its only quarter to ten. Its going to be a scorcher.

Cazi x

Oh I love your furry friend Cazikins lol .girl?
It's been yuk all day here still and I'm sure I can hear thunder in the distance again.
-
I spoke too soon - it's arrived.
It's now gone dark & thunder's getting closer, the dog is panicking. Just the rain to catch up now.
My furry friend was a very big fat furry, fluffy one Daisydot called Fanny..... ;D ;D
-
Started grey and over-cast now it's hot, hot, hot - lots of visitors over there PF? Or is there a mist now?
Sitting in the shade is 'just right'.
-
Lol love it I've never had a cat called fanny mines have all delicate floral names but are all little thugs.
Last night two of them sat at the window fascinated with the hailstones and lightening ,two were buried under the sofa,I think we have more storms on the way by the looks of it it's very grey still.
-
Hot :sunny: :angryfire:
-
Can you believe the suns shining at nearly 8pm at night, weird here.
-
Been very very hot today - 28 in the shade this afternoon, and almost no rain for weeks - garden is so dry.... had to use a hose, but I expect they might be banned before too long if it goes on like this. Lovely sunshine though :)
Hurdity x
-
Horrible this morning very windy and grey again,where's my share of the sun :( x
-
You can't have a share Daisydot because Hurdity and myself have it all. Sorry. ::)
-
It def sounds like it lol,isn't it weird how we have such extremes.and your not sorry I can hear you giggling in the distance :rofl:
-
Misty start. Not nice.
-
Very very mean and miserable day I'm fed up today lol. :(
-
Dull, Dull, Dull - and the weather ain't much better! Muggy too.

Cazi x
-
Grey today and a tiny sprinkly of misty rain for about 30 secs and that's it!!!! Please rain lots at night!!!! We're not forecast to have much over the next 10 days :( . I have lots of Cosmos and Rudbeckia I have grown waiting to be planted but garden is rock hard (yes I know this is the weather thread!!!) ::)
Hurdity x
-
Drizzling.
-
Fiddling down yet again.hurdity I'm blowing the rain clouds over to you now I've had more than my fair share lol.
-
Flooding in my county. My son had to wade through 2 foot of water to get to his car this evening. His work boots are now drying out in the airing cupboard.
More expected later. ⛈️
-
Yes same here Shadyglade, bad flooding apparently no surprise with the amount of rain we've had.
-
It's DRY here today.
But more storms due tomorrow. What the hell is going on :-\ ::) :o
-
It's been pouring down all night again stopped now but flood warnings here,it's certainly keeping my mood dark I'm already cranky lol.
-
Rain on and off all day!
Quite cool too, so jeans and jumper today.
Really miserable.....
-
Very humid from lunchtime onwards but we have seen the sun for just 5 minutes today.
-
Same here very humid but miserable had a walk earlier and felt like more rain on the way.
-
Getting hotter here in Spain. Gone from sitting in the sun a week ago to now sitting in the shade most of the time. Xx
-
You cruel cruel woman paisley lol x
-
I don't think in July & August Daisydot you will you be envying me. I will be envying you in UK 😅😅😅
-
Yesterday was dull. Today has improved with blue sky, sunshine, muggy at times, a slight drizzle ........
-
I'm only teasing you paisley I've had more than my fill of spanish sunshine in July and aug 40+ where I lived that's one of the reasons Im back here,I only ever enjoyed the April to September months away,winter was freezing there no insulation in the houses, and July and August is when Madrid completely shuts down and they all headed to the coast where I was,it was hot and manic so I used to go home to U.K. for a break from the heat then.its just so humid but grey here here just now so you can't do much when it's like this.the storms last week reminded me so much of Spain actually.x
-
Drab this morning, then picked up
lovely this afternoon, muggy, then went sunny n hot.
Now cloudy but still warm.
Bad weather on its way, thunderstorms and loads rain,
apparently.
-
It's here Jd lol xx
-
Hope to get dog out before it comes here,
She's one hell of a fur ball, takes ages to dry her off..lol
-
Good grief you should hear the rain here again can't believe it's so bad we,ve surely got to get the best summer ever after this lot.
-
Dull :(
-
We have rain pouring through our windows! the small ones in the back door. Note to self - advise DH to put fresh putty in!! Utility room floor is awash ....... put towels down to soak up. Now listening to thunder ::): this'll be Summer then :-\
-
It's nearly here now,
Can see lightning just in the distance.
Poor you CLKD, get that putty in ASAP.
Hope this gets better , we all need a bit summer time.
Jd x
-
Sea mist yet again. Every day this week we've had it. Some days we have seen the sun for about 5 minutes around 5pm. Its not cold but its miserable.
-
Just horrible again but I'm going out anyway getting shoppers droop ;D
-
Turned out a lovely day very warm,you just can't predict it in the mornings at all at the moment can you.
-
Too bloody hot here,
Got back to the car and it said 34degrees!!!
On way back went down to 26 though.
Still, too hot for me....
But it might have had something to do with the skinny jeans I had on.lol
But this morning it look like rubbish again, you just don't know what to wear
do ?
-
O.m.g.
We've just had a massive down pour.
Got soaked getting my washing in, which I forgot all about,
It's still raining now but not so bad,
What is going on.......
-
Water seeped through the glazing on our back door during a thunder-storm in the early hours, so Himself has been re-puttying the panes today. I used a lot of towels soaking up which are now on the line. It's been lovely since, now getting chilly in the shade.
-
Weathers good today.
Cloudy, sunny, warm.
Although there is a very big dark cloud just hanging
over us at the mo.
-
We have the black cloud too >:( but it's warm. We are sitting in the shade feeding wild birds :). Wind is freshening.
-
It has been quite warm and sunny here and the next door children have been bouncing on their trampoline (and shrieking, unfortunately :( )
-
Couldn't you be watering your plants in their pots ......... WHOOPS ;D
-
I listened to some loud music whilst I was cooking - drowned them out.
They will be back at school tomorrow :)
-
Grey start to the today but the sun came out mid morning and it's been sunny and hot all day.
Lanzalover
-
Raining on and off today it really blackens your mood doesent it.hopefully tomorrow maybe better xx
-
Dull. Drizzly. Dull. Bugga ...........
-
Same here today,drizzly and miserable a wrap up day, not very encouraging for my walks
-
It was really chilly earlier - that'll be 10.00 a.m. then ;-) - now the sun has broken though, nice enough to sit on the patio without sleeves. But OH the smell from the muck spreading :-X
-
Cloudy first thing until about noon, now lovely sunshine although a little hazy. The cooler cloudy morning was excellent for gardening as it was not too hot.
-
Glorious sunshine this afternoon
-
Same here Robin always seem to get rotten days and lovely nights when I'm stuck in lol
-
Cool this morning but it was a lovely warm sunny afternoon.
Lanzalover
-
Another nice day but it's now turned quite cool and I think it may rain.
Lanzalover
-
Lanza: where are you ?
It's started cool in the mornings but has been lovely during the day. Lots of pottering done.
-
Cold all day. Have put the heating on
-
CLKD I'm still at home.
Going to Lanzarote tomorrow :)
Lanzalover
-
Enjoy! Packed, won't need to take much?
Dull now as dusk falls.
-
Warm enough to sit outside today which is lovely after such a cold day yesterday
-
I've just been window watching today seems ok and feels quite warm
-
Chilly at times. Managed to sleep in the shade for 2 hours even though the neighbour's singing practice ::) as well as the birds' noises.
Dull at times. Too warm at times. Summer then?
-
Hopefully you'll feel able to get out in the sunshine while you're away Daisydot x
-
Thank you Robin fingers crossed.x
-
Generally damp, cloudy and no wind about as cold as yesterday until about 2 pm. The sun has come out but it is still very cool and a little windy. Anyone currently in a sunnier climate please send some sunshine to the Midlands. It has not felt like summer for over a week now. Thank you. lol
-
Here in the South Midlands the chill has driven me inside
-
Beautiful day here in Lanzarote in fact although I had factor 50 sun tan lotion on I have defiantly caught the sun.
Eldest son DIL and the boys are over on on Fuertaventura and she has just sent a text saying saying it's been cold there today !
Lanzalover
-
That's brilliant LL grab those rays but be careful too.Id rather be doing that than cutting my tongue with vitamin d meds lol.
-
Dull initially but not cold and the sun has been in and out all day
-
Last full day of our holiday in Gran Canaria. We've had excellent weather - 25 to 30C every day. Yesterday and today was overcast but still very hot and when the sun came out properly after lunch it was sweltering.
As usual we brought far too many clothes. I always pack a cardigan and never need it. I havent even worn anything with a sleeve in, day or night.
-
:sunny: :sweatdrop:
-
A glorious day. Blue sky occasional fluffy clouds and a very gentle breeze. The garden is suddenly in full bloom
-
Spoke too soon. An enormous black cloud is heading straight for my washing line 😣
-
You wee jinx Robin :rofl:
-
Gorgeous day here very warm xx
-
Did the Nasty Black Cloud move away ?
-
Yes it did. I think Daisydot saw it off for me with a double jinx
:rofl:
It's glorious once again.
X
-
:sunny: but far too dry! Was 28 in the shade around midday and still 26 at 8 pm. I love the sun - buit we had ne'er a cloud to be seen - just wall to wall sunshine! My flower garden is parched, the roses are wilting and petals dropping off, as are the lupins and hollyhocks. My annuals need constant water as do the outside tomatoes in pots. In fact I have been watering most of the day! Veg garden also parched. Washing up water, handrinsing water, shower water (before it runs hot) - any water! We really haven't had any rain to speak of for weeks! I know when it comes ( jet stream going south) we will have wind clouds and rain for days so this is lovely - just wish it would pour with rain overnight and magically clear up by morning. When I watered the front garden the wall was so hot that it vapourised/steamed as soon as I watered onto it! It's like being in Spain.....
Hurdity x :sunny:
-
Cold first thing. Dull. Dull. Dull. Until 5.08 p.m. when the sun came out and the wind dropped.
-
Lovely day here in Lanzarote.
-
Could you bottle some sunshine to bring back ........
-
I'll try :)
Although this morning I got up to grey sky and a sort of mist but that was 7.30 hopfully things will improve.
Lanzalover x
-
It's just a heat haze LL the suns getting ready for you lol enjoy your day xx
-
I remember using my twin tub rinse water for our garden/s. In that hot summer of 1976. Again in 198? and the 1990s. Then I had to buy an automatic, I grudge all that water going down the drain :bang:. I bought lots of watering cans to decant the rinse water into, occasionally it missed the buckets but that meant that the floor got washed ;D. The trick is to pour the water onto the root system - lots of. I go round with the house every 3/4 days here, or if something begins to wilt. Rain is forecast!
Otherwise :sweatdrop:
-
Warmer than I expected. The calm before the storm I think. The garden is too big to water but most things seem to survive. I like pots but avoid them on the whole because I don't want to water them
-
I planned to get rid of pots. But because plants that I like disappeared I have put more into pots ....... so the area around our ponds is stunning 8)
-
We did similar around the pond in our previous garden and I loved it but this gardens a bit big for bothering with the extra work it entails. There's lots of other lovely things to look at though
-
Turned into another lovely day 🌞
Lanzalover x
-
Whereas here a storm is forecast - of course it is, OVO Energy pro-women cyclists are through here tomorrow :-\
I can't remember the name this one has been given, begins with an 'h' I think: Horace?
-
Not another one !
Have you noticed since they started to name them we seem to have more storms than usual :( .
Don't think I need to worry to worry about it here in Lanzarote ;D
Lanzalover x

Dull. Dull. Dull. Blustery++
The weather is the same >:(

Not literally I hope :o
It began dull. Chilly wind. Then the sun broke through and it's been breezy with warmth ........
-
Warm with a gentle wind good for drying all the washing I had today.

That storm didn't arrive then? It's been blustery for 36 hours and chilly at times. Nice enough to sit out this afternoon.

Lanzalover x

I went to Cromer this morning and it was freezing. Holidaymakers were walking around in fleece jackets and anoraks! The wind was cold and it was whistling down the narrow streets there.
It was 13C.
As the afternoon wore on I was at home and it got warmer and warmer and by teatime I was boiling and wearing a sleeveless vest.
Crazy weather.
-
:sunny: :sunny: :sunny: :sunny:
The Solstice is here - it's summer :). Anyone go to Stonehenge?
Temps in the upper 20's again here in SW England (but only 11 overnight) so was in vest and short shorts all afternoon again - topping up the Vit D :)
Only abother 6 months before the year starts to wax again :)

No hurdity,
But I'd love to .
But when everyone else has gone.....lol

Beautiful morning here hope it warms up today.x
-
22C here riht now and beautiful sunshine but quite breezy. my garden is very sheltered so its lovely out there.
-
Winter is on it's way :'(
I've frozen in Cromer and along that Coast many times in August ::) - I've also sat under a brolley to get shade. As long as it's dry when on holiday?
:sweatdrop: :sunny:
-
Very cloudy, but warm.
Think it's gonna get far too warm for me in this coming week... :-\
-
Muggy now after a start of 17 in the car rising to 20. Clouding over but not supposed to change much until Friday.
-
It's been a lovely 🌞 day here DGD has been in the paddling pool this afternoon,

Lovely day today, too hot for me to sit in,
So stayed by the fan indoors, but sat in the shade in garden
but only for a little while....
Hope it's not too hot tonight to sleep......
-
25 and higher in our car :o
Not muggy though
Blue sky
Sun screen required!
-
Beautiful day here hoping it cools down tonight as the bedroom is like an oven at the moment despite all the windows being open upstairs.
Lanzalover x
-
Sat outside until 9.30 p.m. Leisurely bath until 11.00. All windows open so good blow through.
Hot again today :o so seeking the shade.
-
Beautiful days got all the fans on for the hairy ones the heat is exhausting them.🐰
-
The advice is not to walk dogs until after dark, they really don't need it in this heat.
Blue sky. Inside .....
-
When it is hot it always amazes me how many people leave their dogs in the car, car window open poor dog(s) panting whilst they "just nip into the shops." I believe this is now illegal, but just like using the mobile phone whilst driving the law does not apply to them because......... Moan over. Its a lovely day here with the promise of more to come until the end of the week. We spent so long waiting for the warmer weather and brighter days I am going to enjoy it for what it is. Have a happy day/evening everyone. :)
-
Really bloody hot here. Too hot for me.
So I take things easy. Last year I had heat stroke,
So I don't want to go there again. :'(
I see people walking their dogs out in the blazing sun, running after balls, ect..
It's just too hot for them, don't they realise they too can suffer from heat stroke,
which can lead to death!, They're barmy!!!! >:(
-
A bit warm.
-
PHEW! all day. No air even with the windows open across the house.
There is a Law relating to abdonment of dogs ........ I would be quite prepared to smash a car window!
-
Sounds like the place for me to move to! I hate the heat, I actually prefer winter, most people think I am odd ;D
-
We love the North East! Craster upwards ........
:sweatdrop: :sunny: seeking shade. Fruit is ripening faster than we can eat it but the raspberries are tart :o :-X
-
30c here today. Could only manage 15 mins in the full sun then moved into shade. Glorious day with wall to wall sunshine.

Sounds like the place for me.
It's far tooo hot for me, I can't stand it,
If it's aound 22 I'm fine, but this is just horrendous for me.
So I'm with tinker bell on this one I'm afraid.....
-
Started off at 20 which was lovely. By mid-morning it had jumped to 25 :o so I sought shade. It was 70 on our patio all last night at ground level. There's no breeze either ::)
-
Looks like it's been raining here this morning very dull overcast day.
-
they're forecasting another scorcher here today, around 30c.
-
Brightened up very nicely and not so hot today.
-
Beautiful day again today,
Just too hot for me.
I had the bed all to myself last night, as OH slept
downstairs on settee with our dog, it was far too hot in the
bedroom, so he stayed downstairs.
-
:burn: hot hot hot
-
:sweatdrop: :sunny:
-
It's a long time since it's been as hot as this continuously
-
Five weeks here without rain. Drizzle occasionally. Stayed inside all day. Now on the patio with a cardi on ::)

I am a moaning mini aren't I? Lol

Where are you jillydoll? Maybe somewhere East waiting for the front to come over?
After temps between 29 and 31 for most of the last week and full sun, since Monday and no rain (apart from one little bit of misty drizzle for about 15 mins a few weeks ago) for 6 weeks or more, and culminating in another absolute scorcher yesterday - woke today to cloud - and we had some rain!!! Including a downpour for about 5 mins!!! And thunder and lightning. Hence I've had time to come on here as most of the week I've been watering non-stop (several times a day!) as well as having visitors (including son) and BBQs all week... this morning it was a cool 22! This afternoon briefly down to 18! Normal! However sun is back out again now but the heat has gone. Plants veg and flowers all perked up :)

Hi Hurdity
I'm in Birmingham.
OH has just looked at the weather, and I'm afraid we've got
28/29 degrees all week!!!
Oh well, I'll just have to melt some more.....lol
-
It's known as Summer :-\ - by 8.30 p.m. it's lovely, there was a sudden cooling breeze last night 8)
-
Sill very hot :sunny: but I'm enjoying every minute of it.

It's chilly this evening with a hefty breeze. Sitting out on the patio awaiting hedgehog arrival ;-). Will need a cardy!
-
Very hot,
But absolutely lovely when I walked the dog this evening,
Sun had gone down, and the breeze was excellent,
could have stayed there all night....lol
And I'm sure the dog would too..lol
-
Still warm - Summer then ;D
-
Been lovely today, hot
But a gorgeous breeze,
In fact, I've quite liked todays weather...
No moaning today....lol
-
Beautiful day again :sunny: and more of the same for the next few days and the forecast for the weekend is 30 degrees.
Lanzalover x

Another lovely day but it has now cooled down with a light breeze.
Lanzalover x
-
Still Summer - kids break up soon plus there's lots of sport across the UK ......... chilly this evening which is a welcome break
-
It's 30 degrees today here according to the radio.
So no ones gonna sleep tonight.
-
Water is running off me - can hardly move ::)
28 in our car this morning
Can't bear the thought of moving into the patio/shade finding it too hot then having to move back inside, I'll wait awhile ;-)
-
Another lovely day here 28 degrees :sunny:
Lanzalover x
-
:sunny: muggy
When the storm breaks it will be a big 'un!
-
I'm defo with you on that Stellajane.
Last year I had a touch of heat stroke, and it scared me to death,
I've always been ok in the heat, but since I've turned 50, I just can't
handle it.....
Can't wait for it to break.....
-
Another lovely 🌞 day here.
Lanzalover x
-
Looked like we were going to have some rain here earlier,
But alas, no , we didn't..... bugger......
Will just have to wait.....
Think I'll have to slow down a bit.....
-
Yep that Black Cloud went over us to ::)
Air was cool on the patio from 8.30 until we came inside at 11.00
Warm again, blue skies
-
Hot today :sunny: I don't know why but feeling :sweatdrop: today.
Lanzalover x
-
Could it be the weather ?
HOT!
-
Cool with a lot of grey cloud at 5.30am but by 8 am the sky had cleared and the 🌞 came out not as hot as yesterday.
It's cooling down now and getting breezy.
Lanzalover x
-
Cold :-\ after another warm day
-
Completely grey sky this morning but it brightened up mid morning.
Had a couple of drops of rain on the windscreen while driving home but it didn't come to anything.
Sun has gone now and it's rather cool and grey again I've brought the patio cushions in tonight just in case it rains although it's not forecast.
Lanzalover x
-
Cooler here. Very comfortable.
-
Maybe someone could go up in a plane and squeeze the clouds........... ;D
-
A really better day today, not sticky hot,
Until late this afternoon then all of a sudden it went boiling again.
Full sun out back.
But maybe having the oven on for a couple hours had something to do with that..lol
Walked the dog over the park and it was lovely.
But it's going too hot again later in the week, so I'm relishing this cooler bit...
-
I've never liked the heat. This is nightmare at the moment. I'm a bag of anxiety because of it all. :(
-
Sorry to hear that dulciana I absolutely love this weather it makes me feel so much better.Just goes to show how different we all are.
I have also been on the progesterone part of HRT recently and I always sleep well when taking it.
My ideal would be hot sunny days and cooler nights together with rain overnight so I didn't have to water the garden (if only ;D ).
Hope you manage to get the wasps nest sorted today and manage to get some sleep soon sleep deprivation is just horrible.
Love Lanzalover x
-
I get anxious when it's hot, I think that my body uses up energy faster. I need to eat B4 my body needs it.
Cooler with a hint of drizzle.
-
Lovely day today but cooling down now.
Lanzalover x
-
Warmed up by 11.30 :o :sweatdrop:
-
Cooler but now the sun is breaking through it's going to be warm. Will strip the bed and get the sheets laundered I think.

Thank you, Lanzalover. We're in Rentokil's system now, so hopefully it won't be too long. Unfortunately, as the wasps' nest is on the fourth floor of the building, we're having to pay a stratospheric amount :o for the hire of one of those machines that take people up the side of a building.
-
Cooler today, just 17C But have been out in just a cotton dress and no cardi.
-
That'll be a cherry picker? Get the windows cleaned at the same time.
Warm.
-
Lovely and cool. Sitting outside listening to the birds
-
Cloudy but warm all day then on the drive home the heavens opened and boy did it rain it was torrential absolutely horrible driving conditions but when I got home it hadn't rained here all day !!!!!!!
Lanzalover x
-
I hate driving in heavy rain.
Warm again. No rain as forecast but storms supposedly to arrive over the weekend >:(. Laundry off the bed, washed and back on the bed yesterday, sheets were drying in about 20 mins. :)
-
Bouncing it down. No plant watering tonight :spin:
-
Been very warm all day, on and off sun
Then went really threatening looking, but no, no rain!
Gone cooler though, which is great......
-
Drizzling hard. Had to dash in ........
-
It's rained on and off all day and cool but when the rain stops the sun comes out and it's really quite warm.
Forecast for the weekend is dry and warm.
Lanzalover x

Hot hot hot here today :sunny:

Drizzle didn't go far >:(. 10 mins. at most ::)
Today it's warm again.
-
:o. "Huge iceberg threatens Greenland village "
Now I likes a view I does, however :o
-
Too flipping hot!!!
Thank god it's changing very soon.
Although there is a lovely breeze coming through.
Come winter, I'll be moaning about the cold!! Lol
I'm not normally a moaning mini...lol
-
In the Winter - during that 2nd or 3rd 4-6" of snow :o I mentioned to DH that we would be complaining when we got a proper Summer ;D. Not complaining ......... much. A sigh occasionally when I begin to :sweatdrop: otherwise we can find shade.
-
Hot :sunny:
Lanzalover x
-
Hot. Getting fed up of it now.
-
🔥 Hot 🔥
-
☔️
-
Cool and wet today
Lanzalover x
-
Clouds came. And went. And came ....... without tipping anything ::)
-
Cloudy. Dull. Heavy ........
-
Fresher this morning but the sun appeared mid morning and it turned into quite a warm day.
Lanzalover x
-
Had a shower this morning, (not me, outside)
But to be honest, it shouldnt have bothered because it did nothing for my plants, ::)
Still had to water myself.
Then went really warm , a little cloudy , but still no rain. :(
It's getting hotter again the weekend, up into the 29s/30s again, :sunny:
So that's me buggered.!!!! :sunny:
-
Cooler. Slightly. Sun breaking through though ...........
-
Still hot in France. Over-cast here but no rain ........
-
Very muggy :-\
Cloudy
No rain yet - is there any anywhere ?
-
Nice morning but it clouded over mid morning and we've had showers on and off since then.
We hadn't had any rain until the water co decided to introduce a hose pipe ban !
Lanzalover x
-
Usually works Lanzalover - but we live on an Island :-\ so cannot be short of water.
Dark cloud and blustery out there. Whether the cloud will break over us we yet to see!
-
Drizzle. For 3 hours now after 6 weeks without any rain except a few spots.
Muggy. Air smells fresh.
-
We might have had a little rain overnight - enough to show up in the dust on the car. Otherwise :sunny:
-
Our garden plants are suffering, farms are in difficulty and food prices will rise. This isn't confined to the UK apparently. Mainland Europe talks of small farms going out of business and there are fires across Sweden which will affect food. I think I will be stocking up on bread, muesli and porridge and may freeze some small bottles of milk.
-
Had rain yesterday, about an hours worth,
Today has been cloudy, with the sun showing its face occasionally.about 22*
Very warm, now it's gone cooler, much better for sleeping.
-
Very grey when looking out the window but I've just gone out to the bin and it's actually very warm out there.
Lanzalover x
-
Grey at 6.30 a.m. then the sun broke through ...........
-
Sun sun sun! No rain for weeks. I feel so sad for the drought-stricken wildlife but happy that all of you sunshine lovers have finally got a decent summer!! 🌞🌞🌞

:na: I feel sorry for plants etc.. Difficult but maybe a sign of things to come?

Sky cleared mid morning lovely blue sky and warm with a very gentle breeze.

Likewise. No rain at all here even when they tease on the forecast, it seems to miss. When it does cloud over, seems to get muggy and stop nighttime temps falling.
I do NOT like the heat!
-
Same hear JaneL.
Too flipping hot here today,
Stayed indoors all day by the fans.
Outside now, just starting to get dark, and still too hot!
Gwad knows how I'm gonna sleep tonight, maybe in the noddy,
Now that's a sight........lol
-
27.5 in my garden and its only 10 past 10.
-
The Met Office has just issued an Amber Heatwave Alert for our area.
What fun. :o I am actually missing wet grey days.
-
Humid :sweatdrop:
-
baking 😉 looks a bit overcast so maybe get rain later
-
Hot, hot , boiling hot . :sunny: :sunny:
I've had enough now, but there's more to come they've said on the news! :steamed:
great... :(
I just feel like a wet soggy weekend in Blackpool.!!!
And that's just my knickers! I can't stand it.............I'm sure I'm gonna self combust.... :hotflash:
-
It's raining here (Edinburgh) !! :) :) :)
-
Take the knickers off :-\ :-X
Warm again. Slept a lot in the shade. We had a proper Winter, stands to reason that we will get a proper Summer ;)
-
I'm sitting in the garden and it's still 25 degrees. 29 in the bedroom. A hot sticky night for all of the wrong reasons!!
Taz ;D
-
On our night camera it was 70F at 2.30 a.m. :-\
-
What's that in centigrade?
Taz x :-\
-
:thankyou: Jeaniwigs ......... warm then ;D
28 yesterday. Going to be 27 later ::)

Dreadful news in Greece :'(
-
Very sad in Greece.
I'm on summer break from work, my garden is dead and it's too hot to be out there working!
Just don't know what to do with myself!
Spangles
xXx

Terrifying scenes. We are so lucky in the UK. There's also reports of hundreds missing in Laos in a dam collapse.
I was in a serious earthquake on a Greek Island some while back - it scared me witless - the ground seemed to have lost its substance, a horrible feeling, and the inhabitants were rightly frightened - Zakynthos town had been demolished in living memory. Fortunately no lives lost or structural damage.
There's nothing at all controlable about these things whether volcanos, tsunamis, earthquakes, fire or flood. Sadly, the latter two are often exascerbated by human folly and inaction.
-
I wonder if we should even here, make up an emergency case with precious items, a head torch, spare batteries, loo rolls, bottled water ...... fire spreads so rapidly! I would never live where there are thatched properties and if we were near a Moor ........ it doesn't only happen to others :'(
-
30 degrees at 9am
:hotflash:
HELP
-
Is that in the shade? :o :o It's only 27 here. All doors and windows closed and curtains closed too to keep inside cooler than outside. It's a bit gloomy 8)
Taz x
-
Yep, that's in the shade.
Now up to 33 degrees. :'( :o
-
Cool and drizzly here. Rained all day yesterday. Tropical Venezuela ;D
I feel for you all in blighty 8)
-
36.9 :sunny:
-
Warm ...... :sweatdrop: rain forecast later :-\
-
I'm really suffering today!
Too hot!
Don't help cooking dinner either..
I must be mad!,
-
Suddenly clouded over since about 8pm. Looks potentially wet. Hope!! :)
-
Yes Jeanie
The wind was hot weren't it....
Thought it was me over heating.....lol
Sunday's cooler here, so they say, hope so, it's killing me....
-
Oh Jeanie, I'm sorry.
NO, it's the weather.!!.humidity....
That'll be it. Keep telling yourself that...!!
-
:sunny: :sweatdrop:
-
There's been weather in Darlington I think, someone caught a 'spout' in the street on camera. Flooding in some houses due to a burst water main :-\. People will soon be complaining after a gentle rain, about their lawns needing cutting ;D
-
Kaboom!!!! First rain here since forever, but doesn't feel any cooler.
-
Slowly getting cooler. Clouded over and can hear thunder ⚡ in the distance.
Phew, at last.
-
Sticky. Hot. Clouds come over, go black, float away ............
-
DH stepped out of the house on his way to a sports event, outdoors of course - a few drops of rain followed him ;D
Sticky. Grey. Blustery. No rain.
-
Apparently a stone caught under a combine harvester yesterday, sparked and caused a blaze :o :-\. Time 2 pack that emergency bag ?!?
Trains have been cancelled or are running late due to the heat.
-
Kaboom from here too, with first rain since forever ☔. We had about 15 mins of light rain around 5 pm, not enough to make a difference, so I decided to try and do something about it. There are three things that I know of that should normally make it rain:
1 clean the windows
2 clean your shoes
3 go for walk without umbrella.
I decided on the walk, but took a brolly anyway. It worked, though. Absolutely chucked it down. Got soaked in spite of umbrella. Rain stopped as soon as I got home but at least I tried. Still very hot but think I can get away with not doing any watering tonight :)
JP x
-
Oh Joaniepat you made a laugh....... ;D ;D ;D
We haven't had Anything! ::)
Just really hot n sticky.
It's just horrible.
Roll on Sunday. I say..
Then it's back to 30 odd degrees again apparently.. :'(
-
Apparently raining in London .....
-
It's really dark here now.
Hopefully we'll have ...[whispers]...shhh.. you know what. Lol
So better take dog out now for her walk......
She'll not appreciate getting wet.......lol
-
Did she get her walk in the dry jd? Dogs are lovely, but a wet one doesn't smell too good!
JP x
-
Yes thank you Joaniepat.
Only a quick one tonight though as it did start to spit a little bit, and we thought
we'd be quick because it looked like the heavens were going to open,
But, no, it went over......lol
She won't mind though, she don't like long walks anyway, no matter what the weathers like,
Although, she did love all that snow we had before, she was so funny in it....
She's still blowing her coat, only the top coat is coming off now, she looks thin and almost Ill.
She looks much better when she's in full coat, but it must be cooler for her with no under coat..
Jd x
-
We had a terrific thunder and lightening storm about 9pm last night with just a few minutes of rain. That is the first rain we have had since 4 June when we had a few spots. We were hopeful there was going to be a good downpour last night but it didnt happen.
-
It drizzled over night.
Shrubs to the compost heap are WET ;D
Pavement dried in the blustery wind :-\
Blue sky again but much cooler
Can't have the windows open due to the wind >:(
-
I found a patch of sunlight which was warming the carpet earlier and put my bare feet onto the spot ;D. Surely that 'wasn't it' :-\ ? I'd like a little more sunshine without the intense heat. I have worn twice this year a small top that I bought 2 years ago: never been warm enough B4 8)
Any damage anywhere, apparently Sunny Hunny has been badly hit ......... :-\
-
They get on my nerves too and I have several but make sure that they can't ring much. In fact one is blown round the branch right now ;D
-
Go and cut them down in the dead of night Jeaniewigs. I think they're antisocial. ;D Perhaps the person who put them up is a bit Mutt and Jeff.
JP x
-
36'C with a breeze. Think I need to call the foundry next door & tell them they have left the Furness open. Can't even sit out in the shade so hiding in the house with the Aircon on.
-
Well, that's it, we've had down pour, after down pour today,
Flooded back patio, but no thunder n lightning..
It was really cool out shopping today as well, only a t shirt on, and I did have
goose bumps a couple of times. But I didn't care, after all that heat, it was nice
to feel cold....
So now got to find a slot to walk the dog, without her getting soaked.
It's not so dark now, so maybe this is the time to go.
-
Getting dark earlier than usual ..........
Heavy rain for 10 mins. then drizzled
Stopped now
-
Drizzling. Blustery.
-
Grey sky, raining, gusts of wind and cold, looks like summer is done :(
-
Rain at last!! 😍 So welcome and everywhere smells divine.
Taz x
-
Haven't stood outside long enough Taz to give a Very Good Sniff ;D
Still drizzling ::)
-
Rain, but not enough. Apparently getting hotter for the rest of the week where I am.
-
Not having a water butt we've collected two buckets of rain so far and used it to top up the pond.
Taz x
-
It's been chucking it down all day here on & off.
Bad wind too. ( the weather......not me.....)
It's like winter again.
Had a wear a cardigan today, it's been chilly.
I'm not complaining though,
At least the gardens had a right good soaking.
-
I had to put a cardy on yesterday >:( ::)
Blustery
Drizzling intermittently
Dull
as for the weather ;)
-
Plenty of rain yesterday, over night and this morning. Now clearing up and temperature rising.
More heat expect towards the end of the week. :(
-
Very warm here it's building up my face is burning today.
-
Sad new in California ......... and fires raging across parts of Wales :-\ :'(
-
Cooler today, thank god.....lol
Only a little rain, not much sunshine. :-\
I like the sunshine, just don't like it too hot. :(
-
Was lovely at 6am but it's clouded over now and the sky is turning grey I have half an eye on garden as I may have to rescue the washing.
Lanzalover x
-
Woke to a thunder storm this morning. Now sunny, comfortably warm and breezy.
-
Bit too windy today for me.
-
Heavy drizzle in the night but the blustery wind is very drying :-\
Too warm 4 me to sit in the sun, lovely in the shade
Clouds scudding over
We had the whole of Scotland breeze by at 10.00 a.m. in cloud formation. It was white, lit from underneath and really high up.
-
Been ok today.
Not too hot, just nice for me.
Now the suns shining through and it's lovely..
Bit windy though...
-
No rain so far but it's been a bit breezy at least all the washing is dry.
Lanzalover x

No rain but cooler today.

Still very hot here in Norfolk. Wall to wall sunshine again today.
-
Too hot 🔥 again. Due a few days of this apparently. :'(

Grey sky and very humid wish it would rain and clear the air.
Lanzalover x
-
Too warm for me to go far. Felt really tired after shopping earlier. Looks set to continue :o
38 in Southern France, 34 in Belgium ::) - Summer then?
-
I think it's a plane and not thunder ::) but very muggy with black clouds !
-
Hallelujah it's rained don't think I've ever been so happy to see rain.(Although everything appears to covered in a layer of sand)
The air is now fresh and the temp has lowered.
Hopefully that's the last of humid days.
Lanzalover x
-
Blown from the Sahara then?
In about an hour it will be lovely ;)
-
Still very hot today (30 in our yard) but intermittently cloudy. I gather there was SOME RAIN where I live, while we were on hols - but not enough!
Hurdity x
-
Coming to the end of my week in London and have spent the whole week dripping with sweat as I've rushed around from place to place in hot sun. At this moment I'm lying on my bedroom floor stripped to my undies trying to cool off and really looking forward to being back in the (relatively!) frozen north tomorrow!
-
Yes indeed, Dulciana. Yesterday was one of the worst days! How was the course? I hope this dreadful heatwave didn't ruin the whole experience.
JP x
-
Feel a little cooler today as there is more cloud plus a breeze.
-
:sunny: :sweatdrop: sitting in the cool but little breeze getting through
......... and because the windows are open, every noise outside makes me jump! Someone is loading a trailer with stuff, in THIS weather :bang:
It was lovely on our patio at 9.30 p.m. ;)
-
Yes indeed, Dulciana. Yesterday was one of the worst days! How was the course? I hope this dreadful heatwave didn't ruin the whole experience.
JP x
It was brilliant, thanks Joaniepat. The weather didn't ruin the experience, which was inspiring - it just meant that I was/we were all melting most of the time! ::)
-
About 8 degrees cooler, I should think, Jeaniewigs. To digress - my journey back up north was not what I expected, to say the least! The train got as far as Berwick, then we were informed that there was a broken-down train up the line and that there was a queue of four trains waiting for it to clear. It took ages to start moving again and when we did, the driver fairly hurtled along. But then, somewhere between Berwick and Dunbar, we encountered a signal failure which they couldn't get to the bottom of, so we sat there and we sat there, and eventually were allowed to continue, with the driver being talked through the journey between Dunbar and Edinburgh because apparently the signals were still down. We should have got into Edinburgh just after 7pm. Instead we limped in some time after 10pm! But, clouds and silver linings - it was a lot cooler than down south. :)
-
Too hot up until now, it's gone more cloudy.
And a breeze. Thank you........ ;D
I've just got my ‘sweats' under control again, and this heat just weren't
helping.... >:(
-
We've got a bit of cloud now but still getting hotter and no breeze at all, going to be a hot night again.
-
Crikey dulciana :medal: I would have been off that train and walking!
HOT :sweatdrop:
-
My daughter had same thing on Friday coming from London but they were stopped at a station so they opened the doors and let them get off.40 minutes before they moved again.

I'm wondering if the hot weather has anything to do with it?

It has affected the air con in the Chunnel apparently :o
:sunny: Summer then?
-
Boiling here. 32C. Sticky, sticky, sticky!
-

Has been hot here still but apparently becoming "fresher" later this week....
Hurdity x
-
Trains were held up for hours a couple of weeks ago. Apparently the air con kicks off above a certain temperature :-\ which happened to be 28! So holiday queues grew and grew and ........... because trains were cancelled. It is said that the backlog of lorries will never be cleared ....... it will be one large parking area moving slowly towards Franc :-\
As for the weather ;D. Cooler on the patio this evening. Clear. In a few week's time, an evening like this one will forecast frost ::)
Wonder how Taz is coping?
-
Sleep downstairs: hot air rises!
There was no air through the house last night. A little breeze this morning. :sunny:
-
Cooler today.
Lanzalover x

Raining steadily here now, and cooling down a bit after 30 degrees this afternoon. Just shoo-ed a young frog out of the living room and back into the garden. 🐸
JP x
-
It's been really overpowering today,
It's given me a right bloody headache!
Then about 7pm, it went really cooler.
A lovely breeze, cool so took dog out.
Still too hot for our dog, so OH will sleep downstairs
with her with the patio door open, and the fan on....
Glad it's cooling down now.
-
I have a tent you can borrow Daisydot - I forgot, sorry ;D
76F in our bedroom, fan on, windows open.
-
;D ......... I've been bitten on several places this week :-\. Bought bicarb to try next!
Overcast, then blue skies, blustery wind, warm. 20 in the car which I can cope with.
Sun really bright 8)
-
A much more bearable 24c today.
-
I have 3 of my grandchildren over for a sleepover and they're out in the paddling pool, Sun is in and out. Missing the weather we've been having x
-
Have watched black clouds scudding by to the west of us, headed north ::)
Too cool in the shade, nice in the sunshine.
-
Hydrocortisone 1% cream CLKD.
-
Cooler but still no signficant rain.
Sadly, still no signficant sleep either....
-
Thunder storm Tuesday night. Now steady rain all day here. Actually felt chill this morning.
Wonderful. :cancan:
-
Chucking it down earlier and a bit dull and overcast looking just now.
-
Cooler but still no rain 🤔
Taz xx
-
The weather is just boring at the moment! We've had a bit of rain here and there - but not enough to give the garden a REALLY GOOD SOAKING, and it's a bit windy, a bit cool with some sunshine - just really nondescript. I'd love a deluge or a thunderstorm or gale even, if it's not going to be warm and sunny!!
Hurdity x
-
I'm sure my Robin is singing his Autumn Song .. ;D
Taz x

I am COLD ;D
Had to sit under a blanket whilst bird watching today :-\
With a cardy on :o
That rain didn't go anywhere either >:(. If it's going to go cold, then rain!!!
-
Rain ☔ again after a sunny start. Socks and a fleece on.
What ever next ;)
-
Winter? ???
Heavy drizzle - we had a load of wood delivered at 8.45 and by 9.15 it was tipping it down. DH moved the wood into the store and 20 mins. later, the drizzle stopped . Blue sky. Fresh.
-
Been raining on and off since lunchtime but we badly need it.
-
Bright blue sky
Sunshine
Black clouds came and went with a slight shower, I think it went Northwards and we got the edge ::)
PF - have sent you a PM ;)
-
Thunder, lightning, heavy rain, wind,
This afternoon, it was ‘cold' too.
Now gone sunny, and settled.
-
Real weather :)

Strange day today.
Warm and sunny at times then cold and wet very odd day.
Lanzalover x
-
I've a cardy on. The sky is beautiful!
-
There must have been a power shortage in the early hours as our phone lines bleeped at 6.45 >:(
Blue sky. Blustery. Threats of rain which have scudded over.
-
Lovely day here. Warm and sunny. 20c at 5.25 pm

Beautifully drizzly here. What a change having to use the tumble drier! Not so good for Boomtown Festival though. :-\

Feet are cold. We simply aren't used to it ;D
Drizzling. Hard.

I still have the patio doors wide open. what a summer we have had here! its been just about wall to wall sunshine here since the beginning of June. Last Wednesday we had a shower but it was still hot.
just been talking to my Aunt in Scotland and she says its everso cold and she put her heat on at 6pm!! Its also windy and theyve had loads of rain in recent weeks.
-
Yep that is us...rainy, windy , misty..repeat ....our house has been on the market for 3 years as of next month....... I feel like if we move all my problems would melt away. I miss the sunny , warm weather I grew up with soooooo much.

Lovely warm morning but it's gone cooler this afternoon and we have had a couple of showers.
-
Warm today, but windy and cloudy.
Looks like rain now though.

Dull start yesterday. Then warm.
Autumnal start at 6.00 a.m., by 9.00 it had clouded up. Once the sun came out it was lovely. No dry in the air though :-\

Nice and cool, with heavy rains. Doing my marrows some good!
Helped a bit with my flushes, but still having insomnia.

Blustery wind - good for the laundry
Grey, blue skies, rain, sunshine ....... Autumn has arrived and of course, it's a Bank Holiday >:(

Pouring right now. Glad that I am not camping anywhere >:(. British Motor Cycling GP at Silverstone plus many events across the UK :'(

We have had torrential downpours since mid afternoon yesterday.
Got up this morning to discover the conservatory roof was leaking :-\

Himself said how decadent it was to have the electric blankets on in August ;D but he didn't switch his off last night.
It has drizzled heavily all day. MotoGP - at Silverstone - no racing after the initial sighting lap at 9.30 a.m. Fans have sat. Waiting. Camera men have filmed. Continually. Commentators have done a Good Job keeping the continuity going as no one knew what was going to happen, even up to 4.00 p.m.
Even the neighbours' cat has stayed in with us. He pops through the window, has a few biscuits then goes out. Usually. I put a blanket on the sofa and he's slept since 2.30 .........
Drizzling. Still :-\
-
Cold and gray but it's not raining yet.

You not sleep? ::)
Miserable damp morning 😘
-
I woke for a bathroom visit
Then worried about the man knocked over at the end stage of le Veulta ...... plus the pro cyclists involved
Then decided to make a cuppa so had a wander round the garden whilst the kettle was boiling ::). It was lovely, then. Today it's been drizzle >:( so sorry for the Pro-cyclists racing across Nottinghamshire!
Still drizzling. Heating needs to go on!
-
Wet and miserable 😩

A lot better today - blustery so washing is drying fast outdoors.

Was a balmy 26 yesterday even though cloudy all day - felt like a Spanish plume. Rain in the night and today normal cool September weather, cloudy and windy...

Glorious. Chilly occasional breeze but nice enough to sit out and watch wild-life

I had my blanket on almost all night as I was unable to sleep [mind racing++]

Over-night gentle rain would be appreciated!

Getting increasingly 🍃 windy.

I've loved the feel of the wind, both the very warm and now the cooler.

Blustery. Still. Washing stayed on the line, fortunately the pegs didn't pop ;D
-
...autumn has arrived - today 21st September - with another very wild and windy, but lovely and sunny day, although the autumn equinox itself this year is not until the early hours of Sunday morning 23rd September. Met Office records and stats for the season, as always, started on 1st September!

Grey - but I live in Northern Ireland so that's normal.
Warmish and not raining, which is not normal.

Harvest Moon was big last night :o
Too warm to sit in the :sunny:
-
Sunshine - sitting in the sunshine! - I'd sell my soul for sunshine. I used to live in Poole in Dorset where you wore a roll neck and a fleece in winter and the sun shone loads - now I am consigned to loads grey although this summer for here has been great but nothing like the 30's seen in England. My most favourite thing in the world is sunshine - the hotter the better
You lucky devil you!
-
Where are you, remind me :-\
Sun is flooding into the lounge, windows open.
-
Spent the day in Hunstanton and it got up to 26c.It was fantastic. People in T shirts, eating icecreams and just watching the world go by. We have had an amazing summer here. It started the first week in June after a wet May and its been lovely just about ever since. I can only recall about 3 days when we had rain.
-
Where am I - that's a good question today?? :-\ I am in delightfully grey Northern Ireland, where everyone comments on how lovely and green everything is - well that's because it rains a lot and we get lots of this :drunklaf: Where we get the westerlys blowing in and making their way to Scotland - you know that bit on the weather forecast where they cut Ireland and the UK in half on the diagonal and I am always on the non-sunny side. :( I love living here except for the weather and the fact that no one delivers good stuff from Groupon, Woucher and even Amazon if it weighs more than 5kg or you have to take out a second mortgage to pay for the postage despite us having a UK postcode and the Royal Mail!
Sorry if my response is ****ly - I said in "how are you today" that I was a misery. I should be celebrating your good fortune and cheering but my delightful daughters who still live in Poole in Dorset always taunt me everyday the sun shines asking me what the weather is like by text knowing full well what it is like here - Their gleefulness does not add to my humour on a bad day :madeyes:- now it seems you lot are joining in with your "lovely sunshine" ;) ;) Serves me right for visiting "hows the weather with you" huh :lol: :lol:
-
You did earlier: Northern Ireland ::) ......... are you due a holiday, maybe Brighton ;)
PF - Sunny Hunny then .......... is the fun-fair still open? The only coast on the East that faces West ;-)- Could you see The Stump?
Lovely sun set again 8)

Still sitting in the garden, been sunny all day with those lovely high wispy clouds.

Another beautiful warm autumn day - or should I say Indian summer - hot enough to be sleeveless and crops - I was out so not in my shorts but will be back in them tomorrow :)
Hurdity x

Not an India Summer .......... Autumnal.
What does the phrase Indian Summer mean?
What's the meaning of the phrase 'Indian summer'? An unseasonably warm, dry and calm weather, usually following a period of colder weather or frost in the late Autumn (or in the Southern hemisphere, where the term is less common, the late Spring).
In order for a ‘true' Indian summer, temperatures need to first drop below zero and then climb back up. Many media reports are calling this an ‘Indian summer', however according to the Met Office's Meteorological Glossary, it's a little too early in the year. An Indian summer is defined as a warm, calm spell of weather occurring after the first frost in autumn, especially in October and November.
.
The Met Office however, don't mention when or for how long the temps. need 2B below zero ::).
Lovely sunshine all day. Occasionally very black clouds :o. Cool breeze. Fab clear sky so looking for the Space Station ........
-
Sunshine again after a dull start. Warm :sweatdrop: bright blue sky. The sky last night was FabULus!
Nowt on the UK Met Office web-site to indicate an Indian Summer despite what other agencies suggest.

CLKD - I know you read my posts about weather in Northern Ireland (best description - usually rubbish!) and my daughters and their incessant smug weather forecasting ::) Unfortunately I have to tell you that you too are now on my smug weather forecasting list ;) ;D :lol: You taking such unbridled delight in your sunny fortunes is a total torment to me :great: :P :) :D
Heaven knows what possessed me to look at this post on the forum, but now it is kind of addictive! It sets me off daydreaming as to what sunny haven I can move to so as to avoid the grey drizzle. :'( :sigh:
-
Oh we have our share of grey drizzle too .......... I bet if you moved to where I live the weather would change :rofl:
Dark now so I can't see what it's doing .........
-
My girls say that - don't move near us! ;D ;D We went to visit end of last week in August first week in September and ended a heatwave in Sussex!
-
Many years ago we had visitors. At the time we lived on the coast. It had been very hot until the day after they arrived. It stopped raining the morning they left, 3 and a bit weeks later. :-X
Today it's dull but when the sun breaks through, it's lovely.
-
Brilliant sunshine and 19C until mid afternoon when it clouded over but was still,lovely and warm.
Havent worn a shoe since end of May only flip flops and sandals and have forgotten what rain looks like.

It's a miracle!!!! :ange: - the sun is shining and the sky is blue :sunny: :spin:- bit chilly though in NI!!

Dull and dreary - a bit how I feel :)

Rain, rain and more rain here in the midlands uk. It was 23 degrees in my lounge as we had the heating on yesterday. :) At least we have not had the terrible fall out from the excessive rain like those who live in South Wales or across the Channel in France. Tomorrow will be a better day and a bit warmer. Cheers everyone.

Mild here again but drizzled all day. Supposed to be 23c here tomorrow.

Yep Krystal,

Weather warnings here on the Costa Blanca.... Gota Fria on its way.. my area is "at risk"... but I think we are not in a particularly vulnerable area as rains will run away from the property with likely only a little running through the land... I hope!
Likely will have a power cut or two so the candles re at the ready and I have got some logs in for the cosy factor... :bbq: This said it was a gloriously hot day today... still had a sundowner on the pool terrace! :drunk:

Only in the morning, then turned to showers.
Very cold, biting wind.

FabULus sunset ;) against a dark sky. Not cold at all.
I understand 'dank' :(
-
Blue skies & windy.....
-
Chucking it down. Rain sideways. :o Not cold though. It will fill the barrels ;D
-
Our barrels have been drained and plugged for the winter.
-
Chucking it down this morning - some flooding - now blue sky and clouds - not cold.
-
We never do that - I remove 4" to allow for ice formation if necessary. We use rain water on the acid loving plants: camellia, blue-berries, heathers so need constant access. It sniffs sometimes though ::)
Blue sky now :o drizzle gone.
-
Just stopped chucking it down.
Very grey, not cold, quite mild.
Bit windy though.....
-
A little cloudy but a warm 22 degrees lovely :)

;D. blue sky. Breezy. Haven't stepped outdoors yet ......... it rained heavily in the early hours.
-
Sunny, mild and blue sky, generally nice day.
-
Lovely 😎🌞😎 said it was 28 degrees on the chemists temp gauge but I think that may have been incorrect but it's been very hot.
Lanzalover x
-
oh Lanzalover - I've just turned green with envy! - quite a fair impression of the incredible hulk (cos I'm a bit made also that it is so sunny and warm where you are) :'( :sick02:

Cloudy today but warm and when the sun came out from behind the clouds it was hot.
Lanzalover x
-
Better than us then!
Rain, rain, rain, and very windy....
A bit nippy round the gills, but not too bad......

Beautiful day today 26 degrees 😎
Lanzalover x

Lovely for walk this morning but chilly round the Balearics. This afternoon just managed with trekking poles before it started to rain quite hard so pleased I got done in time. Weather report this morning said we were in for a really awful day but did better than London. Watched the rugby match at Twickers and it was absolutely pouring down in that part of the U.K
-
Raining....
-
Yep. Rain. Heavy :o day started bright and sunny ::)

Lanzalover x

It was beautiful at 8.30 am blue sky, sunny and warm
By 12.30 the sky had turned grey and it got very breezy then the rain appeared quite heavy for a short time. But it's been a wet and misty afternoon you couldn't even see Fuertaventura but it's cleared up now and the suns out again yipeeee

Tenerife have had bad weather Lanza.
Just watched it on the news, the big waves off the sea, swept some of the
balconies off the apartments! Really bad.....
Glad to hear lanzarote escaped it....
It's on it's way to mainland Spain now......
Take care.......xx
-
Raining - I nipped out to feed the hogs and my slippers got wet :-\
-
Blustery. Chilly wind. If it was a few weeks into Jan that sky would be snowing :o
Laundry blowing - pegged well down!
-
Unseasonably warm and windy - cloudy with patches of blue.
-
Good morning
Lovely sunny day here
Lanzarote had a Amber weather warning for Sunday during the week they were expecting high tides windy weather and lots of rain but the warning disappeared on Saturday afternoon and we had a nice normal weather day. Just thankful we weren't in Tenerife as it didn't look good on the news.

SNOW ☃ it better not be heading my way Jillydoll!!!
Lanzalover x
-
Flip if snow's coming I'm with Jillydoll - lets club together for a tent on a beach somewhere - anything but rain, cold, gloom and snow!
There was bloke in the news who was crowdfunding (begging basically urgh) for his childrens Christmas - I reckon we would be much more worthy candidates to crowdfund... anyone for stumping up a beach (not in the UK or the arctic before you get funny!)and a tent or even a mud hut! Do you think we could persuade the NHS it is a treatment of some kind!! - I don't mind slumming it as long as it is warm! ;) :sunny: :sweatdrop:
-
Bloody freezing!!!
It will be a shock Lanzalover - but at least you've topped up your vit D.
I heard there was a big storm on the Canaries yesterday?
Yes good idea Ladybt - prescribed for all older/menopausal women - a week in the sunshine to boost out vit D levels ;D
Hurdity x
-
I'd be pushing for more than week, sunlight absorption and all that! :P ;D
-
Just booked to go for new year to visit family in Lanzarote, definitely need some sunshine to see me through this winter, looks like it's going to be a cold one. Don't mind though if we have another summer like this year.
-
Misty
Sharp frost
Sun may break through :)
-
Yep, my kind of morning too. Lots of thick clothes and a brisk walk!
Sun breathing through, I can see blue sky.
Not into roughing it though so no tent on the beach for me ;D - large Motorhome would be fine .......... :whist:
-
Frosty but sunny could be worse.
Need to get my winter clothes out before I go out.
Lanzalover x

Sky looks like it might snow :o
Keep nipping in and out to top up bird feeders ....

Well that storm lasted all of 5 mins.! Really blustery. Made the wood burner roar. Then settled :-\

We are on a yellow flood warning here - Hubby went to the shed this afternoon and I shouted to him did he have enough wood for the ark!

It seems much calmer this morning but we'll see what what the day brings.
Lanzalover x
-
Frost earlier. Apparently. ;D
Bright sunshine. Off for a walk, well wrapped up.

Sunshine and a cold and frosty morning - perfect for December just before Christmas and so far better than the grey rainy day we had yesterday when it barely got light at all.

Keep old of that wee dog then :o.
-
;D. never a Truer word spoken in jest :o
How was your holiday? Do tell ;) [not much on TV today ;D]
-
Wise to keep an eye on those pesky kites: someone who knows someone had a kitten snatched ........ it was asleep on their patio.
-
I can't remember what happened to the kitten, I think it woke up and was dropped into a field.
-
Blue sky, white puffy clouds moving quick, and squally showers.
-
It's been a lovely day here.
Not so cold, blue skies and windy,
great for getting my washing dry....
Getting washing dry in January, who'd believe that one?
-
Mild and mostly dry. Went for a walk.
-
I need to go for a walk but am cleaning the kitchen - does that count?
Dull, dull, dull - began lovely and bright .......
-
Grey but mild
Lanzalover x
-
Bright again now that the BLACK cloud has drifted over, followed by Grey, white, more grey ........ not cold. The black cloud was straight across at the bottom there's probably a meteorological name for it ::) but it appeared as though someone had taken a knife to it.
-
Un seasonally mild today but according to the forecast that's about to change :(
Lanzalover x

As long as we don't get what mainland Europe is getting :o

Woke at 5.30 to heavy rain which turned to ice and snow by dawn. Roofs and lawn covered. It looked lovely against the blue sky by mid morning B4 it melted. Supposedly warmer by the weekend :-\.
-
Bitterly cold tonight but still no snow even though had been forecast. Clear blue sunny sky all day.
-
Dull. Dull. Dull. The weather's similar ::)
-
Sunny and cold ❄
-
Wet and chilly here in Lanzarote too wet to go exploring so looks like it'll be a day of using the hotel facilities.never mind it's a change of scenery at the worst isn't it im just lucky to be here.might dry up later if not there's always snorkelling 😂😂DD😘
-
Sorry to hear that DD after all the weeks of lovely weather it's such a pity.
Never mind you could be here bitterly cold and snowing 🌨 at the moment I know where I'd rather be.
Enjoy your day
Lanzalover x
-
For those who are in Lanzarote a change is as good as a rest so they say. Enjoy and have fun in whatever you decide to do. There are always the grey clouds to think about over GB. Oh and the bitter wind too. Have a lovely time on you holiday.
-
Keep it up there? The frost has gone now. Dull. Over-cast. Chilly wind.
-
Grey and coldish.
-
Also gray and cold here
Lanzalover x

Snowed here last night when I took our dog out, she loved it...😀
However, thankfully it didn't continue and this morning it had all gone! Result!
Today has been very cold, damp, and drizzly.
A right load of 🤬

Woke to hard frost, blue skies and utter stillness. Sun was warm on my back. Now it's Dull, Dull, Dull .......

-
Very cold 💨 had to de-ice the car this morning !
Lanzalover x
-
Home now?
-
No snow yet, but boy is that east wind bitterly cold. Had some sunshine today which cheered the day, it is good that the daylight is here until around 4.30 so the evenings do not seem quite so long. However the mornings seem to be a little darker than it was before Christmas or is that my imagination?
-
Quite a nice day today, until about an hour ago,
when it rained.
Very cold, going a bit misty........
-
Nights are pulling out in the Midlands. I don't see Dawn arriving though .......
Lovely sharp frost, but the sky has turned a sleety grey colour. A little sleet in the air :-\ :o. Blustery which means washing is drying enough to bring in :). Smells lovely and fresh.
Snow is forecast .......
-
Horrible day here been snowing on off all day but fortunately ground to wet for it to stick.
Went in the supermarket and when I came out it was about 2.30pm but you would have thought it was night time as it was so dark. Sky looking very ominous hope it doesn't freeze tonight as if it snows it will stick and really can't be doing with that !!!!!! Noooooooooo
Lanzalover x
-
Snow. Huge flakes :o but gone after 20 mins and didn't stick. PHEW!
-
Still no snow. :)
-
We've got snow ☃ ❄️ but the suns just made an apperance so hopefully it won't last long.
Lanzalover x
-
Sleet in the evening. Bright this morning with heavy frost over which a few flakes have fallen. Chilly but Seasonal. I like ............

Very cold, and well, rubbish!

Still got some snow just hoping it doesn't freeze overnght.
Lanzalover x

A few flakes of snow this morning. :(

Dreeecccch .......... dull. Chilly. Sleeting. Drizzle. Thank goodness I have a Very Good Book but Himself wants to go fishing tomorrow :-\
-
It really cant make up its mind today!
One minute raining, next blue sky and sun and then black as night?
Very very windy and cold.
-
Similar here in the Midlands. Seasonal?
-
Biting cold, sunny, showers blow through, changeable. Bit like my hormones today!
Had super walk and saw white tailed sea eagle hunting; maybe 50m away.
Feel much better for getting out.
-
Rubbish here. Cold, wet and windy.
-
I think seeing wild-life can lift the Spirits!
Dark now. Blustery.
-
Very very windy 💨
Lanzalover x
-
Very windy here. We have large solid wood gates and one has just blown open. I can hear wheelie bins and flower pots and garden chairs blowing around at the back of the house.

Beautiful clear blue sky. Little windy and a bit chilly but looking good!

Beautiful clear blue sky. Little windy and a bit chilly but looking good!

Blue sky. Blustery. Chilly.

Very cold here and snow forecast later tonight/tomorrow !!!!!!
Lanzalover x
-
Snow is forecast across the UK according to the weather man earlier >:(
-
Apparently sleet has arrived :-\
-
Still waiting. DH has gone out :o - Watching the 1 Show loading rock salt ....... I feel sorry for those Council workers who go out in the early hours so that others stay safe :-\
-
I agree CLKD three cheers for the council workers who grit and salt our roads in difficult conditions so that our roads are passable with care. We had sleet and heavy rain this afternoon in the midlands and tonight -3 C has been forecast so goodness only knows what the roads and paths will be like in the morning. Last Thursday morning it was very icy first thing and as the icy conditions were not that obvious great care was needed when walking outside. It was like a thin film of ice covering everything.
The wintery conditions are making their way across the country which seems madness when I look out of the window and see two roses happily flowering away as if it was summer! Last summers geraniums have only stopped producing flowers in the last two weeks since we had that first spell of heavy frost.
If the snow etc comes lets hope it goes as quickly as it arrives. :)
-
Either arrives and stays or melts quickly!
-
We have snow this morning not looking forward to the drive to work.
I'm surprised as yesterday we had sleet and rain all day so the ground was very wet.
Lanzalover x
-
Cold and sunny here.
-
Roads wet
Roofs in the shade white
Plants dripping gently a 'photo opportunity for someone
Blue sky, chilly - Midlands
Manchester and Liverpool airports however, closed :o
-
The sky has gone a funny colour and I can see snow/sleet falling >:(. Sun is out too ::)
-
yey hey - NO SNOW where I live in NI - sprinklings on the hills but we are not at a standstill as per normal!
Blue sky but cold - ha ha I think global warming has come to NI at last! :-X ;D
-
Those flakes fell and the cloud moved away .......... no hills to enjoy here :'( [thought I found a bungalow in Scotland yesterday ;D ]
-
Bungalow in Scotland hope you enjoy snow CLKD :)
We have frozen snow and ice this morning not looking forward to the drive to work today.
Lanzalover x
-
Very cold and frosty here
Snow forecast for this evening.
-
We now have freezing fog.
-
It was freezing fog over-night now cleared to beautiful blue sky and hoar frost.
The bungalow I saw is for sale ;-). Bit far in this weather though. Thanks jaypo!
-
Thanks jaypo commute to work not to bad today all the roads were well gritted and traffic constantly moving but it took forever to de-ice the car.
It was -4 on temp gauge in the car all the way to work and only 0.5 on the way home it's been bitterly cold today.
Day off tomorrow and it's not supposed to be as cold (fingers crossed)
Lanzalover x
-
Snow :o only a few centemeters but it's the first snow in a few years, the beast from the east didn't visit us last year :D
-
We have a layer too. Nothing significant.
-
Yikes!! What a shocker this morning white stuff everywhere ☃️home day for me the cats manicure will have to be done another time.DD😘
-
You'll have to have a duvet day !
I've just seen the local weather and they are saying there's a chance we could get more snow today !!!!!!!
I'm going back to bed as the heating hasn't come on hope it's not broken :'(
Lanzalover x
-
11.30 p.m. nowt. 6.00 a.m. it had arrived. Why is it always white ;D - thawing now. Sky grey still. Birds busy on the feeders. Hard to tell whether the snow falling is being blown off shrubs etc. or from the sky :-\. Not as cold.
-
Don't worry. You may get a PM from Emma so that you can explain.
-
Don't you hate it when 'they' are out on the road! Trouble is, 'they' know that they are OK but it doesn't help us, sitting at home!
-
Yes day off from paid work jaypo.
But DH has just gone to collect youngest DGD from pre school then back here for lunch then DH is collecting the two boys from school this afternoon ( I have a pr arranged nail appointment) and they are staying the night as son and DIL have gone on a spa break. Sorry gone a little of of topic here.
Fortunatley no more snow yet and heating working.The sun has made an apperence today so not as cold as yesterday.
Lanzalover x
-
Glad I didn't have the commute this morning but think I might of got more peace at work than at home today :)
Will your DH keep you updated on his journey ?
Lanzalover x
-
I can hear the noise from here ;D and will there be excuses as 'can I stay up a bit later' at bed time ? ;)
Thawing. Fast. Warm.
There are some stunning photos from around the UK on the various BBC local sites ;-)
Can't see why reporters [BBC etc.] need to stand out in 'it' to let us know that it's snowing, not as though it was a surprise over night ::). Good old Jamaca Inn - found spare mattresses and sheets for those stranded, some one will be busy in the laundry there this morning, hopefully they don't lose leccy!
Australia recorded its hottest month ever in January, with average temperatures exceeding 30C (86F) for the first time.
OK - don't rub it in :D
-
Still no snow in Lisburn!! woo hoo - completely blue sky but step out the door and you will freeze solid!
-
Lisburn, NI? Not Lisbon, Portugal? ???
Snow has almost gone now :( don't know whether I'm pleased/not :D
-
Sleeting here now.
No. 1 son driving his girlfriend to Heathrow. Don't know if they will get there or if the flight is cancelled or not.
-
Oh give poor Puss a litter tray :o
-
Snowdays! Snowdays - not the same since I retired but still love them. Thick last night and even thicker this morning - 4 ins! The roads started to melt and thick layers of snow were slithering down the roofs but frozen again now...
Hurdity x
-
No snow, lying or falling.
-
Same here. Where's it is icy it's dangerous. Blue sky. Calm. We seem to be on the 'edge' of this particular Front.
-
Its actually a lovely day here....again!!
-
two good snow showers but it didnt settle. Sunshine in between. Very cold now sun has gone in.
-
The sun is lovely here, it will be a good sunset 8)
-
Yesterday's snow deluge and subsequent ice is beginning to thaw now. Had to miss Frank Turner in Bournemouth as the two hills out of the village were impassable and, anyway, the M3 was broken :o
Taz x
-
No snow for us.
Biting cold, and icy.
Walked our dog, and she turned and ran back home pulling me with her....😂🤣😂
And all that fur she's got too....🤪
-
Still have some snow and ice accompanied by a bitterly cold wind today.
Lanzalover x
-
Beautiful blue sky with fluffy clouds in the sunshine, but very cold and icy on the ground had to be careful underfoot when out walking this morning. I do not have a four legged friend to walk but just as a heads up someone told me that dogs with short hair need a coat to hep maintain body heat in this weather. Also more importantly if dogs are walked in areas when the gritter lorries have been out and the snow/ice has melted on road or pavement areas the dogs paws should be washed on return home as the grit/salt combination can make them ill. This was the first time I had heard of this and it does make sense.
Very cold this evening promise of one degree warmer temperature tomorrow! Brrrrr
-
Oh my goodness where are you. ?
Feels cold here in fact I usually get up at 6.30 just as the heatings coming on but I stayed in bed till nearly 7am as it felt cold. It's very frosty outside just hope it's not that cold when I go out but the car definitely needs de-icing and hate doing it :'(
Lanzalover x
-
I'm on the Wirral so further north.
I did ask DH if he wanted to go to work for me this morning but he said no how very rude of him ;D
Lanzalover x
-
Yeah can't blame him really.
As for the walkers they must be mad !!! Or very dedicated.
Well suppose I'd better go and de-ice the car at least it's Sunday so there's never much traffic on the roads.
Have a good day
Lanzalover x
-
Bright 🔆 sunny day.
-
The snow left on the Chilterns is FabULus. Roads mainly clear apart from the back lanes which have drifts and ice patches :o
Otherwise: blue sky, breezy and sunny. -5 in the car which is now 6 ::)
-13 is very low. We went down to -24 in Wales in 198??? ..... when Terry Wogan said that "Wales is cut off" ;D
-
:D. that'll be what time exactly ;D ...... I did see the sun at 8.00 a.m. ....... ;)
-
Good morning Countrygirl
Rain overnight here so it's warmer this morning and the car doesn't need de-icing yipeeeeeeee
Forecast is for more rain today but I'll take that over snow and ice any day.

We've been very lucky with the weather this week. I just hope the grass doesn't notice as I really don't want to have to get the mower (code for husband) out any time soon
-
Thick fog earlier. Then the sky cleared.

After a cold damp start the sun appeared and it's been a beautiful day ☀️ pity I've been stuck indoors at work all day but I'm off at the weekend and the forecast is for great weather.

After all the sunny days we have had this week, feel we've been the only place in the country under a blanket of fog today! Sun tried to come out towards end of day then the fog descended again!!

Did the fog lift? Started with sharp frost, now calm and clear from a blue sky. Long may it last!

My sister in law, swore by Wild Yam for her hot flushes.
There's a few to pick from....
-
Yeah it is...
I tried black cohosh, didn't work for me either.
Just a thought, hate those flushes with a passion.
Do you have ‘funny turns' like about to pass out too?
I did, awful.
You ok?

Miserable foggy and damp this morning.

It's rarely been bad when we've visited right over on the West ....... we go to avoid mozzies. We went to Skye many years ago and every day it was FabULUS! the next week the road between the Bridge and Portree washed away :o

Nope. We did the whisky tour at Talisker. We were in Plockton too, on the mainland - 1 of my fav. villages.

very sunny here but cold wind.

Very windy.
We have lost our lovely Japanese tree, which came down yesterday. :(
-
Will the tree sprout from the root ? Tidy it up and wait? Have a look-see at Buckingham Garden Centre web-site to see or the RHS web-site and ask? Many trees will regenerate as will fuchsia plants.
Bittery cold. Blustery. Dry. Blue sky.
-
Yes CLKD, luckily it's a type which has sucker off shoots. When my husband moved it there was one just to the right on the old tree. Unfortunately this tree takes 7 years before it blooms so will have to wait awhile for that.
-
What's the name of the tree?
-
What's the name of the tree?
Oh, now you have asked me. I will have to look it up in the RHS book. ::)
-
;D - now I really, really, need to know :lol:
-
Clerodendrum trichotomum
https://www.rhs.org.uk/Plants/90440/Clerodendrum-trichotomum/Details
There are variations. Ours is a tree with white flowers that smell like floral gums.

:thankyou: U can go on holiday now ;D

Cold. Raining hard. Dull, dull, dull .....

One can have 2ndary glazing ........ we had cling film type which we dried on with a hairdrier. It was easy to remove in the warmer weather. We also had 2ndary glazing which was secured with plastic frames with a click-in system.
Now the sun is pouring through our windows :)

Chose the wrong place to for a walk as a few miles down the road I got rather wet!
-
I've had that experience - many years ago Dad and I were travelling on a country road in bright sunshine. The field beyond the hedge beside us was being rained upon :o ::) - never seen that phenomenon again though I have known it to rain at the front of our house and we be sitting in the garden at the back :whist:
I walked jaypo ;)

Hi! it's 10 in our car and at least that wind has dropped to a bluster rather than a whoosh ........ too chilly to sit on the patio until about an hour ago and the sun was burning through my thick jumper ::) - must be Spring then.
-
Sunny 12c, chilly wind at times. Have been able to sit outside last couple of days!
-
Beautiful and sunny but very smelly, the farmer at the end of the street is muck spreading :-\

Hasn't been too bad here a mixture of sun and cloud, chilly when sun went in though.
Herdwick love the sound of your view & yours's to Jaypo
I had front view of field, barn but a house is going up now :( out back I have a field which is slowly filling up with ewe's & their lambs :)
-
Jaypo ;D I'll have the last laugh as when the farmer comes to harvest the field their house will be very dusty, won't be able to open windows etc!! Will still have the view diagonally towards the hills of South Yorks though. It's just going to take time to adjust not having it all open.
-
Dull today
-
I'm good a moving bricks ;). We had a very old orchard opposite for over 20 years then it went up for sale. Two houses there now and no one would join me in order to buy the plot :'(

It is beautifully warm and sunny here. Have been out with an ex neighbour who kindly drove me to the garden centre so I could buy colourful pots, new shrubs and bags of soil for my garden. About to put them outside and water them now. Will do the planting on Monday. :)
-
Lovely warm sunny day. For me this morning felt like being in Majorca or somewhere in the Mediterranean not as hot as the Canaries. The garden has been watered as the ground is very dry. Whilst out and about have seen lots of people wearing shorts and tee shirts which look good on some but not on others. Washing dried well. Enjoy the lovely weather everyone, we spend a lot of time moaning about the grey clouds and cold.
-
Beautiful here again today.
Even wore one of my summer dresses! And sandals 👡.
21/22 degrees today.....lovely...☺️

Beautiful day with wall to wall sunshine and 22c, went for a walk before 9am, ended up having to take jacket off & walking in a t-shirt and temp not even in double figures.

Another wonderful sunny warm day. This bank holiday weather is just the tonic that most people have needed.

Another beautiful sunny day but slightly cooler.

A lovely calm evening. :-*

Cloudy morning, rain shower at lunchtime, cloudy with odd sunny spell early afternoon, then we had rain & hail so a bit of everything.

Had thunderstorms most of the afternoon with heavy rain and hail.
-
Grumpy. The weather ain't much better :D but washing dried.
-
Wind is realy getting up. My neighbour in the flat below has loads of wind chimes. They sound nice with a gentle breeze but right now it's a cacophony!!!
-
Beautiful sunny day but clouded over late afternoon with some drizzle thrown in.

Yorkshire girl. I would take a drizzly day in the Dales over a drizzly day in my London suburb.
I have friends just outside Todders and the only time I dontv envy them is when it snows. I realy need visit there again. Less than an hour to Manchester which I love and the village they live in is like emmerdale. Their house has gorgeous views and the "woolpack" is right next door!!
I usually go for MCR pride but missed it last year due to operation and my health ain't gonna let me get there this year. Shame cos I love it.
-
I think we are on the edge of what is threatened :o. A chair went over in the early hours and birds are flying backwards. Chilly too.
-
Horrible, I hate the wind. I was sitting downstairs at 2.30 when the gusts were over 70mph hoping that we would still have a roof in the morning.
Still have a roof but some plants are looking very sorry this morning and some trees down around the area :-\
-
Cold, wet, windy and grey. Think I'll stay in bed ;D
-
My allergic rhinitis is troublesome all year round. A deep clean helps!!
Blustery.
-
Well DH re-aquaints himself with the Hoovery-thingy. Plugs it in and pushes it around the bedroom which is where I have the worst of my sniffles and sneezes. Even moves the furniture sometimes. Dust causes most of my problems, 2ndly heat: we ditched the duvet over 25 years ago as a change of temperature sets off the sneezing.
So a Deep Clean in the bedroom really eases symptoms.
-
:-X ...... not many people get near to my face - my Dentist being one ;-)
Blustery. Noisy!
-
It's sunny but still really windy, I've hung washing on the line. I hope I've used enough pegs I don't want to ask my neighbours if I can have my pants back ;D
-
Especially the big ones TH 😆😂🤣
If the wind took those they'd go a lot further than my neighbours, I'd be phoning NASA ::)
-
On extending leads then 8)
Sun is pouring into the lounge
Wind's a gusting :o

Heavy drizzle on my washing ::)
-
I'd love to share but not going away, unfortunately!!!! :'(
-
The thought of not having to worry about sleeping/not sleeping before work is bliss & just relaxing :)
-
I wish I could, without fail I am falling asleep in the chair if I've not gone to bed for ten!!! It's tragic, I feel like an old woman.
-
That's something I never do, I can't sleep when there's a film on.
I can turn it off and go to bed, but can't leave it running.
Unlike my OH, he's asleep just as it starts! 😂😂😂
-
I can sleep on a linen line, if my brain says sleep, that's it.
Too early to tell what it's like outside though the sky is blue and it's blustery.
-
Started dull but now much brighter with a light breeze.
-
Drizzle is in the air and it's blustery. Washing out, it will have to take a chance ::)

-
Lovely sunshine yesterday. Complete turn around in the early hours, now it's drizzling hard and 12 in the car.
-
If you look out front window dark, heavy clouds, back window small patches of blue sky & sunshine, very muggy/humid day. One of those days you wish there would be a downpour to clear the air.
-
It started off really nice with sunny spells & a slight breeze but it started raining around 2.30pm but it's intermittent.
-
April Showers >:( - I went to the compost and every shrub and bush soaked me as I walked down the path and back to the house :D
-
Flipping heavy rain nearly all day!
Not too cold.
Blue sky's now, suns made an appearance...
Too little too late I'm afraid my sun! 🤣😂

Bright sunshine this morning, rain started 11.00 am and finished around 3.00 pm, sunny now. Its been a lovely day as the new garden area has been looked after by mother nature. Temperature a balmy 15 degrees. After all it is the music festival season what else can we expect. 8)
-
:lol: and I've sat at Festivals in all types of weather ::)
-
CHUCKING it down since 11.30 p.m. There are 3 open air music festivals locally this weekend :-\ thank goodness that we have outgrown those types of events!!
Blustery. Those shrubs will get me again later this morning :D
-
Rain forecast all day :(
-
4 them certainly :-\ such a shame, anyone getting married too :'(
I'm OK though, watching from inside ;) - gutters over-flowing, trees laying sideways - must be Summer Festival Season then :(
-
Better today. Still overcast but should be brighter later.
-
Trooping the Colour today :'( :o Happy Birthday Maa'm
-
When we were out for lunch yesterday a groom & other family members from down south talking about today's wedding, felt sorry for them (all weekend a washout). Would have had more chance of better weather if the hadn't come up north, they were also booked for a few rounds of golf!! >:(
-
Golf spoils a good walk in any weather :D
-
That's what my OH said!! ;)
-
;D
It's sunny in London, the Queen is alone in her carriage which is rocking a bit - Kwells required? Expect the Duke is watching TV with feet up, slippers on - wonder if he's been instructed to watch the Trooping ;D
-
Rubbish!
-
Weather? Yourself? Trooping the colour :-\
Blustery here with drizzle >:(
-
So much for the atrocious forecast here, it's been dry all day. Could have had my washing out if it wasn't for someone having a fire going...if it's not that it's the smell from the farm (rarely able to hang washing out!). >:(
-
BarBQ problems here >:( .......
Laundry blowing. Hard. Drizzle. Falling. Harder ........
-
Its horrible here. Got drenched twice this morning, Wet, wild and very windy.
-
Hope it changes tomorrow onwards PF :-\ - I'm in Holt for a few days ....... !
-
Dry, not much wind. Just as I'm about to post this it's now raining, but looking bright don't think it will last!
-
Had to close the curtains to stop the sun shining on the TV screen :D
-
Lovely day today with plenty of sunny spells. Just hope the weather forecast is wrong - it is looking like relentless rain over next three days :'(
-
Beautiful sunny day (typical when back to work tomorrow after weeks AL), been out for a nice walk with OH.
-
Nice day after a bit rain earlier.
Not as warm as I'd like, but hey ho....🙂
-
So far today, so good. Over looking the Wash and the sand is sparkling.

Anxiety raising a bit. We've had a good day though ;-) :thankyou:

How's the bath? Nice and big I hope.
No going skinny dippin in that sea! 😂
Unless you want to, of course. Send hubby in first! 🏊🏼♂️ 🙂

Deep bath. HOT++ water. Peaceful extractor system. Dark now ....... think it drizzled a bit and foul weather is forecast >:(

You could always go, ‘singing in the rain' Gene Kelly style! 😂
Doesn't matter about the weather, you just relax and have a nice time. 🙂

I can see the sea from our window: through the drizzle ::)

Gorgeous day here, not that I got to enjoy it!! CLKD I hope all went well with funeral today.
-
Tnx. Despite the heavy rain.
Now it's blowing HARD and supposedly to get windier.
Yep, the single glazed Hotel windows are rattling hard, it's like elephants on the roof :D. Rabbits are hunkered down on the lawn and pigeons are flying backwards even the seals have gone back to the sandbanks ::)
-
Heavy rain too last night. M25 closed in both directions at Sevenoaks, due to a sinkhole opening up in the central reservation.
Sunny today so going out.

Rained all night. Still raining. Forecast for all day.
Got some bedding plants to put it, don't know when that's going to happen.

It's been so bad that my rose bush in the front garden went over yesterday, a combination of high winds Mon/Tuesday and continual rain. Was going to haul the rest out of the ground today ........
Flooding in Welshpool and further North. Pity anyone on holiday :-\

Haven't heard from Two hoots lately. I hope she has not been washed away in Wales. :-\

What did you blast her with :-\ - fur for the birdies ?
-
OHHHH .........
-
She's blasted with a blower.
It's like an industrial hair dryer.
You can turn em up fast or turn em down slower.
Warm or hot.
They are brilliant, best money spent.
-
Beautiful day plenty of sunshine but pretty breezy 19c
-
HUHHH - OK until mid-afternoon, then it's been April Showers again :-\
-
Did anyone see the storms last night, I think that they followed the coast line - a bungalow in Suffolk was struck down the TV arial, the fire bridade was there 5 hours :'(
-
Sunny day, not much wind to start but got up in the latter part of afternoon, 19c seems to be constant temperature here! According to teenager the weather back home has been more cloud with rain showers!
-
Sunny, got my summer dress on!! 8)
-
Oh that's too much prep for me to wear a dress unless it's been pushing 85F for more than 3 weeks ;D
Dull. Drizzle at times. When the sun did come out, it's been warm.
-
Any opportunity in Scotland, doesn't happy very often!!! I'm not a taps aff kind of girl (tops off!!) so it's bare legs for me!! ;D
-
I'd go naked if the weather was fine enough
-
Summer dress Foxy? Omg....my dresses havnt left the wardrobe yet! ☹️
-
I got up to a beautiful blue sky & sunshine!! Bought dress 25% Oasis last week in the hope the sun might eventually appear 8). Clouded over later in day but still warm, been heavy rain since 7pm though. Will be back in the wardrobe after washing!!!
-
It has been dull and dismal all day. have not seen the sun at all. Quite muggy but tonight I feel cold and have a merino wool sweater on!!
-
I felt cold on and off all day. Had a sleep and woke up cold. Not cold outside though ::) and quite a nice evening, though not warm enough to sit out to watch the moths.
-
Lovely warm sunny day here.
Lanzalover x
-
Supposedly getting warmer though according to the weather girl at 6.30 p.m., 'there may be drizzle somewhere'. Well that covers where exactly? >:(
-
Hopefully a less noise and fireworks tonight. 🌩️⚡
-
April showers again ::) - so that was her idea of 'somewhere' then?
Laundry out
Sun is warm enough to enjoy a cuppa and lunch by the pond feeding wild birds
Pond fish need feeding
-
Another lovely sunny day, but breezy. Cloud increased during this afternoon.
-
Good views though?
-
After a wet start the sun came out but was unfortunately accompanied by a cool breeze not a bad day though.
Lanzalover x

showery although humid.
-
Lovely this morning, sunny.
Then rain, heavy, then ok again.
I did wonder about a dress, but it went cold when it rained, so no.... :-\
I love oasis gear....Foxy....
-
me too jillydoll, I've always found it difficult to get dresses to fit (big hips/butt, smaller chest, what fits in one area generally doesn't fit in the other), also i like below the knee dresses.
-
Yes, I know what you mean...love their prints...
I bought a pair of culottes from there, sooo comfy....fit lovely...🙂
-
April Showers went. Breezy. Not cold. Warmer weather due?

-
Yes Pants...I saw that too....
Too hot for me.
-
Lovely blue sky for most of the day, what I saw of it ;)
FabuLUS evening - calm
At one point in the afternoon I could hear nothing but tinnitus. I even wondered if I had died but then realised that I wouldn't be able to hear my ears buzzing. Nor answer myself ........ then the birds began again.
-
Glorious sunshine..maybe another dress day!!! 8) Have a lovely weekend all.
-
HOT. Too hot ::)

Sunshine and clouds today. Sun is out now. Wine is open.

Dull. Dull. Dull. I was deeply asleep and became aware of the sun for a brief while, not out long enough for me to wake up. 30 promised for Saturday :o
-
Ok, ok, we get the picture..... :steamed: :meltdown: :sunny: :sunny:
We don't want to know anymore......Jaypo & Foxy......

Oh, that's bad littleminnie ;D
29 in shade at 11am. An hour ago 34 in shade. Not a cloud in the sky. Too much for me. Glad it's only 1 day. 8)
-
Glad I'm not in Mainland Europe [now that could be a thread all on it's own ;D ] - fires, intense heat, limitations of vehicles in Cities :-\. We have a fish pond but to be completely honest ......... :whist:
-
have you seen any lightening jaypo?, we didnt see any put lots of thunder earlier on, must have moved your direction since leaving us! Hope it passes over you soon and it's a quiet, cool night.
-
ooh it's the lightening that scares me!!
-
It's been too hot today for me. 39 in the car on the driveway, then it dropped to 33 when we were moving. Feels sooo repressive.
Now, it's cloudy and about 26....so wish it would rain to clear the heat a bit....
-
It got to 28c here today

Oppressive even ;)
Grey sky
Blustery chilly wind

:o cold breeze, had to come into the sunny side of the house ::)
-
Cooler and fresher today with a chilly wind the sky's now grey think it may rain typical as I watered the garden tubs pots and hanging baskets earlier.
Lanzalover x
-
That's typical Lanzalover, it happens to us as well!
-
1 needs to water pots/baskets even if it rains. Due to the fact that the leaves divert rain from the compost they may not get watered at all.
-
Sunny spells in amongst the cloud, very breezy, but warm
-
Cool and breezy all day suns just made an apperence in the last 30 mins.
Lanzalover x

Sunny on & off, warm.
Big breeze tho....quite nice really...
(Oppressive = I should've said) ::) got there in the end! ;D

cloudy, dull until few hours ago now nice and sunny, not warm though.

It's lovely & sunny now, breeze may have dropped as well.

Looks like it's going to be nice today.
Suns out anyway...... :sunny:

Cool on the patio ;)
-
Raining all day! The only day I decided not to take a jacket as it was dry when I looked out the window first thing. Taken a jacket the rest of the week but left in car as it's beed dry although a high of 16oc and dull. No sunnies here!! ;D
-
Too flipping hot when your standing over the cooker! 😡
-
The mind boggles ;D - bum on the BarBQ springs to mind :burn:
-
Red hot yesterday, raining all day today, typical now its weekend!
-
I decided in the 1970s that we have weekends at the wrong part of the week :D 'cos it's dull here :-\ and chillier.
-
Beautiful rain this morning and sort of overcast this afternoon. Very hot in the Midlands.
-
Beautiful in sunny Scarborough,just come in for a break,and an ice lolly :)
Daughter in France on holiday, too hot she says, son in Spain, lives there,but hot most of the time so sat in shade now,
-
Hope you're enjoying lovely Scarborough jaycee
Cloudy first thing but it soon lifted with some lovely long sunny spells, warm and light breeze.
-
Drizzling :-\
-
Yes thank you Yorkshire girl, not always sunny here, the weather forecast though always says cooler on the coast, but a mile or so in it's not, probably only by the sea, very misleading sometimes ::)
-
Yes it can be, the cloud/mist/drizzle extra the weathermen say could hang around the east coast can be very isolated to one or two spots. There have been times when it's horrible in Scarborough and it's sunny in Whitby or south in Bridlington!
-
A very short distance can make a difference, my daughter once rang me and said it was pouring down, and had to bring her washing in, ,not where i was, about a mile away, very strange
-
Dry, cool with the odd break in the clouds letting sunshine in!!
-
100% agree, we dont get a chance to acclimatise to it, such brief episodes of sun in our life times!!!! Not that I'm complaining whilst menopausal, it's a relief.

jaypo - switch it on :-\ ;)

Thinking of booking into a hotel that has a/c in the rooms. Expensive solution. But if they have room service ... ;)
-
Just go to your local supermarket, I was in Tesco just after 9am and it was so cold, glad I had a cardie on, even Costa was cold!!
-
Room service in the sense of room service, or ROOM SERVICE, Pants? 😉
Or you could just walk around the fridges in the local supermarket, be cheaper, AND, you might find a bit if service In there too.....😛
-
Jillydoll, you have a one track mind. Lucky your OH !!
I was thinking burger and chips, no hot oven and no washing up. Joy ;D
I'm not sure my local tesco would appreciate me sitting in the freezer section with my laptop, trying to work ::)
-
Another gorgeous day here, going to be hot hot hot again, 32 c yesterday :)
-
I'm driven inside and am smelly already :-\ and don't know what the temp might be, DH has gone off with the car.
-
Hot, outside temp is saying 32c but isn't 100% accurate due to sun catching it slightly, nice breeze though.
-
What else is there in life Pants? You can't give up, you have to keep fighting this age thing!
Good job I have a OH. I'd have gone crackers by now! 🤣

Rain forecast for the early hours. Apparently.

Saw the long range forecast yesterday and next week we will either have buckets of rain or another heatwave. They couldn't tell yet. ::)

We can walk on the Moon but :whist:

We had a thunderstorm with heavy rain at around 3am for about 30mins. Our bedroom was like an oven, didn't want air con on all night too noisy. Today has been a mixture of cloud and sunny spells, slightly cooler and a nice breeze. Now the whole house is like an oven, it's cooler sitting outside in the shade!!

Omg! 39 degrees tomorrow for the London area!
33 for me.........oh Christ, we're gonna melt, :meltdown: :steamed: or blow up! :hotflash:

Despite the rain in the early hours it went nowhere >:(. Pots all dry because the water ran off the leaves so I've watered the pots ..... and topped up the pond.
It will be lovely around 7.30 p.m. ;-)

15 mins of rain at lunchtime and thunder and torrential rain about 20 mins ago but it's stopped now doesn't seem to have made much difference to the temperature 🤒

What's with the boxes :-\ ........
-
Browsing through the local new feeds, Met Office charts show the temperature in Milton Keynes is 34 degrees, a whole two degrees lower than nearby Newport Pagnell. Wolverton and Willen Lake all reached record highs of 36 degrees at 4pm. Can't find anything for Norfolk or Northumberland :-\
Haven't looked in our car yet today ......... the breeze is WARM when we open the windows :o
-
Horrendous day at work today, 36° outside and 30 inside, had fans on but made little difference. Got home and straight in cold shower. I love it hot but not the humidity.

Yep they appear as 3 boxes ...........

Train problems 'could last until weekend'
Severe disruption on the railways caused by "extremely high" temperatures could affect services on Friday, the Rail Delivery Group (RDG) has warned.
The RDG, which represents train operators and Network Rail, said there was "severe disruption" across the country but particularly around London and the South East of England.
Director Robert Nisbet said the heat was affecting metal track and overhead cables, with 20 out of 26 operators impacted.
Some passengers were stuck in a tunnel :o when a train broke down :-\
-
Melting, not fun when working.
-
You only get the emojis if you are on an iPad or iPhone CLKD
-
Far too hot, no breeze at all.
I'm gonna explode soon if this don't break.... :hotflash:
I've just thought, why am I sitting in my dress when I could be sitting in just my underskirt? Dope!
So it's all come off, and the bra, omg, bliss! 😉🙂

I don't do technical ........
I get these: :whist:
Lovely sunset but muggy

Thunderstorm never came our way! >:(, yet! Dull, muggy, think it's going to be another unbearable day/night - 28.5oc in the bedroom lastnight despite trying everything to cool it down & fan on all night.
-
Same old, same old ..... a few drops of rain earlier that didn't touch the ground ::)
Broken sleep - blower not reaching me and it was noisy plus people leaving for work between 4.30-5.00 :o with radios blaring in their cars - 4 of them :bang:

Dust from the Saraha apparently ........

Hot last night 28c in bedroom - couldn't keep air con just too noisy but I actually slept quite well, outside last night went down to 22c.
Today mainly cloudy, showers on & off 23c.

Power went off this afternoon all electrics and even mobiles ,like living in a silent world, with no communication ??? ???

Hello ladies
I've struggled in the this week and I'm not sure if my hot flushes and night sweats are coming back or it's just the heat. I've been waking every two hours dripping with perspiration! My friend thinks that no one in the country slept properly last and she may be right about that!
Wishing everyone well.

We have been watching the storm web-site - apparently there's a lot of storms 10 miles off the East Coast ......... muggy and the sky has been BLACK - then it passes over.

Me too, a difficult week with the heat/humidity & working.

Send those firemen down here Jilly. My need is greater than yours!
-
Rain on & off all day, warm & humid - did have a long dry spell between 1-3pm

Yes it does, have experienced that in Austria
-
Awww, I don't know about that wrensong! :-* ;D :rofl:
Been dry all day, but not very JULY....and the last day anall!
Hope next months better.... :-\
-
The last long range weather forecast i saw said we would have this weather,then another heatwave in August,then another bad spell, and another heatwave in September, we shall see,
When i tell my son who lives in Spain that we are going to have a heatwave,he laughs and says they are lying to you ;D
-
I remember when in Lugano aged 18 - there was a terrific storm and it went round and round the mountains like it was trapped. The next morning the sky was the bestest blue I have ever seen :-*
Blustery from a sunny sky. Washing dried. Not cold.
-
About to watch the weather on ITV - Yorkshire has copped it :'(
-
T he Yorkshire Dales are having a terrible time of it, cars washed away, farms land ruined
I always just hope no animals have suffered in the deluge of the river breaking it's banks
-
Thunder and lightening, heavy rain & flooding, still humid though!!
-
I've been watching that too. Animals will have been washed away as the farmers couldn't reach lots of the sheep - however, had they employed a shepherd?
Sun pouring through our windows :-*
-
Warmer today....thank you....🙏🏻 :D
Just had some spits and spots of rain, but nothing much....
-
Dry, cloud & sunny spells, breezy, warm
-
Rain and more rain. Just been to move cows to higher ground, they're down river from the reservoir that might collapse and don't want them drowned. The town below the res has been evacuated and roads closed where bridges cross the river downstream.
-
same again, started lovely like a summers day, pouring rain, thunder, no lightening yet.
-
About two hours ago, the heavens opened up! 🌧💦🌧🌧💦
Had to get up off my bum, and close the patio door!
It's very inconsiderate! 🤨
-
Been watching the news about the dam that could collapse, its awful all those people having to leave their homes and hard to believe this is happening in England in August!
-
That's where my bestie lives. Luckily her house is up the hill above the reservoir. All the roads are closed, so she can't go anywhere. Just sit and watch :'(
Glad you moved the cows Shiela. I hope they are up really high. If the dam breaks it will be catastrophic.
Thoughts and prayers.
-
They've been pumping it out all afternoon but daren't do it too fast in case they cause more flooding. Hard to believe it's just an earth bank underneath the concrete. The place is crawling with police, mountain rescue etc. Cows are high enough up the hill now they'll be safe.
-
Whalley Bridge ............ huge slabs of concrete broken away from the dam walls :o ......... glad that your cows are safe sheila99.
-
That's a lot of water to pump out. And more rain forecast. Let's hope they make it through the night.
Will you sleep tonight Shiela99 ?
-
The farm and the rest of the land is some distance away and uphill so not in danger. Just had 10 cows in a field next to the river but the valley sides are steep enough the next field up is safe (no shortage of hills here!). Four of this bunch are my bucket raised friendly mates, I'd hate anything to happen to them.
It seems they didn't force evacuation and some residents have stayed. Hope they'll be safe.
-
I wouldn't stay - but do have precious 'photos to hand anyway. Ready in a large shopping bag to grab.
We had warm sunshine until mid afternoon when the heavens opened - I was asleep and could feel it raining onto my head ::).
-
Beautiful morning here
Lanzalover x
-
Beautiful morning here too and the dam's still there so it's all good. Roads still shut though.
-
As well as it being fine which will be helpful to the chinooks dropping sand bags to shore up the dam walls. I am holding my breath!
Intermittent sunshine across the Midlands.

Trying to find out how old Whalley Bridge actually is:
In 1794 the building of the Peak Forest Canal received Parliamentary approval and Whaley Bridge became one of the two termini. The canal was built principally for the lime trade, and for the carriage of coal from Whaley Bridge to Bugsworth for the burning of lime. For geological reasons it was difficult to build a canal linking the Peak Forest Canal with the Cromford Canal, so railway, originally horsedrawn in 1831 but later using steam locomotives did this. The building of this railway again altered the shape of Whaley Bridge as a new bridge was built to carry the railway into the canal basin.
In 1857 the main line steam railway from Stockport came to Whaley Bridge. For six years this was the terminus and passengers to Chapel or Buxton had to transfer to coaches, but in 1863 the railway to these towns was completed. Up to 1894 the junction of the rail and road at the bottom of Whaley Lane was a level crossing. This was removed in 1894 when a new road was made by taking down some old cottages at the bottom end of Reservoir Road and excavating the ground behind. This connected Whaley Lane with Reservoir Road without the need for any bridge alterations.
The Toddbrook Reservoir was built in 1831 as a feeder to the waterways. Stockport Corporation built Fernilee Reservoir in 1933 covering the old gunpowder mills and several farms.
So the White Hart seems to be older than the Res. in question. It has been evacuated as initially it was a Ford outside the property, now it's a road and river which will take the brunt should the dam let go. Who would build a dam there :-\
-
Thanks for the info :thankyou:
Not sure where else could they could put it. The canal starts in the old centre of WB and the res obviously has to be higher up, and they need a suitable valley to flood with a river already feeding it. Normally a good setup as it overflows from the canal into the Goyt where it would have gone if not diverted to the canal. It's done nearly 200 years without problems. Not totally sure about construction but they used to use clay. This has a concrete skim on it so not original and it doesn't look like clay underneath.
Many reservoirs have the same problem, can't think of any that wouldn't cause major problems if the wall went. Remember the dam busters? (actually I'm not quite that old but I've seen the film...)
-
Mainly cloudy with some nasty grey clouds but it stayed dry, odd sunny spell thrown in, cool in the breeze.
-
You're welcome - interesting info.
Sun is pouring through the windows :-*.
Sky is blue. I was watering the ponds earlier and it was raining ;D

Glorious day, sunniest now! 8)

As a meander: does anyone think that the Police were heavy handed in not allowing people to collect their pets at Whaley Bridge but apparently a 'special' group could go in to catch/feed etc.? Who will be paying for this I wonder, hopefully the Police. Because NO ONE would have stopped me from reaching my 3 cats and dog !!! and it becomes a Welfare Issue after 12 hours. Not a peep from the RSPCA on this either :-\
-
That is a hard one as the fifteen minutes residents were given the other day, wouldn't have suited everyone with work etc and pets mean a lot to owners and are treated as equals, you can't leave them to suffer.
-
They can go back home now can't they? Think I heard that anyway...horrible situation...
It's been real nice today.
Not too hot, sunny, but with a strong breeze...nice...🙂
-
They can go home today but were not allowed back even though pets had been left behind >:(. Try stopping me that's all I say >:( :cuss: :argue:
I wonder if they will be evacuated when the Dam is refilled? Lovely sunny evening with cooling breeze through the windows.
-
Wouldn't have stopped me either! I'm with you on that...no way....🤬
-
Dark now, can't tell .........

Lovely day here again. :sunny:

Alternate heavy showers & blue sky, trees in a frenzy.

Suns out, ( guns out).....😛. 😆
Breezy, not that warm, hope it gets warmer later.
-
The Scottish version is 'taps aff' 'tops off'. Won't be happening here anytime soon though!! >:(
-
As York is only 24 miles from my home, I don't get bored of going whether it's just going for a walk along the river - you can walk miles! - taking in the city walls or for shopping it's wonderful, so much to do. Just find too busy during the holiday seasons though.
Plenty of sunny spells, warm but feeling cool in the strong breeze. Apparently the low pressure is set to stay for week, so more windy cool days - shame I want to sit & enjoy the garden, just not warm enough :(

-
Far too hot to do anything. Hope it cools down before bedtime.
-
Scorching - 27oc. Been for a bike ride with OH, he's now asleep (can't cope with the heat) I'm just out of lovely cold shower!!
-
Our shower hasn't worked for 2 years :-\
Cooler now that the fan is on and dusk is falling
-
Lovely cool morning, sunny & hot 30c nice breeze
-
Cool air with rolling mist windows open lovely, that was at 5.30 this morning. Gradually the heat has built up again. It is going to be another muggy night with 'Moana' the air conditioning unit grumbling all night in the bedroom. It sill be cooler tomorrow so they say.
-
Lovely sunshine, 19.5oc.
-
Beautiful day, just too hot...must have been 29/30 today....🙀
Our dog flaked out on the floor in front of the fan...been putting ice in her water all day...🐕
-
Doggie ice lollies? Just water with a treat in it?
I've given our dog ice cubes, but she's not interested, our other dogs loved em. Not this one tho. Looks at it as if to say, what the bloody hell you giving me that for? 😂 it's not good enough for her! 😂🤣....will try with a treat inside.....x

No breeze still tho...
-
Not as warm here thankfully, still nice being dry & some sunshine, back to rain rest of the week seemingly >:(
-
Been horribly hot. Now cooling off. It concerns me that this will be an average summer with climate change. A heatwave will be more like 47c or 50c and not 31c.
-
I'm cold ;D
Overnight drizzle hardly touched the ground. More rain promised!
-
I'm with foxylady. I was reading our the UK heatwave but I am really still waiting for it in NI and today it is cloudy and drizzily!"

Morning with a mixture of cloud & sun also humid, rain this afternoon.
-
17.0c today, dry, mix of cloudy & sunny.
-
Dull, damp, humid, but better than yesterday when lightning strike tripped our electrics & busted the router-modem box :o. So no internet access for me or remote working for OH, until he drove into town to buy a new router a few hours later, after ISP helpline couldn't come up with any explanation for why we'd lost access. Luckily OH is IT savvy & worked out what the likely problem was. £70 for a new box I hadn't budgeted for when doing the next month's spreadsheet on my laptop at the time the lightning struck. What is it they say - life is what happens while you're busy making other plans?!
-
Where did the lightning strike exactly :o
Drizzle gently now. Dark really early.
-
Damp, cold and dark! ...🙀
-
Same as jillydoll but the sun did try to make a brief apperence between 6 and 6.30pm ,

2 days of solid rain. Welney Wash is flooded. Fields in the fens standing in water, due to heavy machinery over the last 20 years and no fallow periods so that earth can recover. Due to Europe .......... >:(
Dull now. Burner lit. Lights on :-\ and colder :(

Very cold today..
-6 tonight, according to the news. 🥶🥶
-
Awful to think of people up North without gas, probably for days! Relief centres have been set up - 1 needs to fill Thermos flasks with hot water, buy hottie bottles, get lots of woollen clothing on, in layers ......... share the same bed with as much blankets on top as possible. We managed years ago, waking to ice pictures on the inside of the windows but we had woollen clothing. Dad would set the fire B4 anyone else got up. However, these days many properties are reliant on 1 form of heating .......... and this will continue now that new properties are to be built with gas, it will be all electric: but that has to be powered from somewhere ::).
-
Lovely sunny day here. Cold but nice.
I'm watching a load wasps flying around a laurel Bush! :o the laurel has been cut down this morning.
No, correction, not wasps, don't know what they are tbh, but the babies are with them....maybe moths? 🤷♀️ They look like wasps from inside the house! ???
-
Won't be moths and unlikely to be wasps who don't fly with babies. Take a piccie: what colour are they? How big in relation to a pound coin? Do they buzz ........... probably flies which can be quite pretty
Lovely day
-
Ah Jillydoll I walk past a hedge that as insects swarming round it, today it was definitely flies (99% sure), but back in September I thought they were wasps!
Another beautiful sunny day, no frost, bit warmer

Very heavy frost plus fog. Not nice :(

Stunning sunrise this morning :) Cloudy, cold & wind got up in the afternoon
-
Could have been ivy bees? Males Flying together towards banks of sand where the females emerge, they then mate and go back into the holes. Could that be what you saw?
Wasps will use ivy but it's probably a little late for those
Last night it CHUCKED it down :o needed double wiper speeds for miles and miles :-\

Police said the M74 was shut between junctions 14 and 15 northbound for a time overnight, but was passable with care on Tuesday morning.
One driver, Cheryl Burnett, told BBC Radio's Good Morning Scotland programme that it had taken her six and a half hours to travel from Dumfries to Glasgow. "I left Dumfries just back of 21:00 and I didn't get to Glasgow until 03.30 this morning," she said.

Thought it was house alarms them my dog crying to get in [pts 23.02.02] :'(.

Calm now. Blue sky. Bird feeders need picking off the ground and refilling :-\

I live on top of a steep hill and get huge gusts, it keeps me awake wondering if the roof is going to survive ::) if I can't sleep I get up and watch the trees swaying in the wind, but they are far enough away from me :)

11 in the car.
-
CLKD; no not a tile, had some new mixer taps fitted on friday, and later heard a noise like my washing machine spinning,realised it might be an air lock so ran the taps,it stopped, but then kept starting up, and especially when the toilet was flushed, i was advised by my son to bleed the radiators,which i did, but no air in them i must not have tightened the bathroom one enough, although no water was coming out when i left it, but later found the floor flooded, water was spurting out, then the heating went off and no hot water
I didn't dare touch the boiler so switched it off,
Had it seen to today,the pressure was non existent, so got heating back now
All my own fault really i suppose, but definitely no water spurting when i left it
Today we had sleet ,but now sunshine, but the wind is getting up again
Hoping the other tree doesn't come down
This one was waterlogged at the root, the other doesn't look too healthy,i will miss them as in summer and Autumn they were beautiful with lots of red berries

It's the meteorological 1st day of spring. However, the Astronomical 1st day is the 19th of March this year. That's when the spring equinox occurs and the days become longer than the nights. To me that makes more sense so I'm still in winter. ;)

Yayyy, shorts, and summer dresses on the way.....🌞👗👡👒

Wouldn't it be easier to cope with all this self isolation if we were having some nice weather, it lifts my spirit if I open the bedroom curtains to see blue sky :) and just pottering of sitting outside, I don't want to go any further, self isolation wouldn't feel half as bad if it happens.

Sitting outside will do me fine on a sunny day. Dull. Dull. Dull. But not cold.

Dry, cloudy, skies now clearing

She's fed up with the illness all around her. 😆😂

Hopefully DH can get into the garden for a short while tomorrow jillydoll? Well wrapped up out of the wind, get some VtiD.
We have relaxed after a busy day digging, setting, moving plants. Birds singing and busy on the feeders :-)

In the middle of a hail storm, at the moment. ::)

Apparently there was snow across the County earlier. Missed it ;D
Biting wind again >:( and birds flying backwards :o

Sunny intervals earlier but it's still chilly.

Sunny first thing so we went for a walk and shed layers - during the afternoon the wind turned ICY so I lit the fire :o.

Lovely sunrise this morning, sunny skies to start but soon clouded over with the odd bright spell, chilly wind.

Sunshine but also cloud hanging around, rather breezy

Blue sky. Some white cloud. Then BLACK but laundry dried today.

Absolutely Yorkshire Girl! Same here as it has been for days, almost wall to wall sunshine and I was out in it (as usual) for most of the day. Definitely getting max vit D as I hope the rest of you are too!!
Oh dear Foxylady - where do you live? Sounds like the climate is not so good. North west of Scotland maybe? Hope it brightened up for you!

-
Beautiful day again. Currently 22C in my garden. We have had about 5 lovely days in a row now.
-
All to yourself? :-\ ......... we had to find the shade. Lovely.
-
It must be dreadful to be living in a town/city and not allowed to enter green spaces :-\
-
Just started to thunder here.
-
Oh no ......... get that washing in ?
-
I got it in about an hour ago. Both cats have just come flying in the catflap, so they must have been playing together somewhere because i haven't seen them since lunchtime.
-
There's a change in the air as more frogs are sitting round the pond edges.
-
Cooler, plenty of sunny spells but now the breeze has got up and it's clouded over
-
Fantastic until today when it became cooler and breezy and threatened to rain but only a few drops so far. The sunny weather has saved my Easter weekend. I could sit in the garden, drinking tea and listening to music. :)
-
Sunny but chilly
-
Surprised to see that the rain has been and gone: could see droplets on the achemilla mollie leaves. Now the sun is out from a blue sky but the air is colder.

Showery and dull, never mind outlook is better next week :)

We had some lovely heavy rain, the first proper rain for three weeks and it's pouring again now. Fantastic for the garden which was rather baked hard. My broad bean plants and our onion sets will rocket out of the ground but we didn't get any other seeds in ( sown in pots inside!). Gives my skin a rest from the sun's rays. Couldn't keep out of it!
Hurdity x

Glorious sunshine all week, cold nights and breezy!

Ah thanks Clkd - No I bloody didn't. :D & yes he survived. He loves being outside, He's furloughed at the moment & he doesn't like being stuck indoors (with me probably) ;D
Cazikins your OH is seriously mad ;D
I know he is YG, he's bonkers that's why he married me. ;) ;)

Felling lucky as it has still been very hot and pretty sunny today. Temp was 27 deg by our garage. It's now hazy sunsuine and blustery, some grey clouds appearing but temp still 25. I thought Sunday was going to be a write-off but have done lots of gardening already and dried the washing :) . I know it's supposed to cool down and rain later at some point though...

Glorious! Beautiful afternoon and evening sunshine, indeed for most of the day.

Five tea time or earlier? Can't see now, it's dark ;-)

We went for a walk and stepped back inside as the heavens opened :o Heavy drizzle for 25 mins., now the sky is blue. Should I strip the bed? put through the wash, however, I think sheets might finish up in the woods close by ;D Ah well, there's always tomorrow ;-)

Very windy again, otherwise mostly sunny :)

We've had a thunder storm.

Blustery but I'm going to be brave and hang washing on the line :o :D

Still windy but not as bad as yesterday, cloudy. Still barely any rain in 8 weeks, our grass is dying!

Our grass doesn't look great either :(

Cooler tomorrow with possible showers? Our garden is parched but we don't need rain all at once!!
Shade was lovely this afternoon :-)
-
Raining. At least I won't have to water all the plants tonight.
-
I wish we could have some rain. It is forecast but we have had almost no rain during the whole of April and May - maybe a couple of nights but none in recent weeks. In fact can't remember any in May. Getting a bit fed up with watering!!! We've had temps of over 30 on several days, in parts of our yard and gardens.
Weve also had wall to wall sunsuine for days with barely a wisp of cloud! I do love the good weather but now I feel ready for a change. At least it is cloudy today!
And it's not even summer yet!

A house not far from us was struck by lightning yesterday, the fire was quite bad :( . Rain/drizzle most of the day so far, the garden needs it.

I'm still sitting in the garden listening to the grumpy hedgehogs and the bats (bat detector box) flying around the trees. Can't see them but they're definitely there! The house is so hot and I don't feel in the least bit tired so no point in going up to bed yet. No sign of thunder or rain yet but I'll take the cushions in just in case.
Taz x :)

Hot here too Taz.
I heard some Magpies at about 10pm creating like crazy, hubby thought that maybe an owl was in the area & that's what started them off. Couldn't see or hear one myself though.
It's 28c in here at the moment & no sign of thunder either - can't wait for it to get cooler.

It was 40 in our garden mid-afternoon.
I have never known laundry to dry within 45 mins and not even in direct sunshine :o 8). That includes those pillow protectors that go below the slips ........ dry within 30 mins.! Dull and very muggy now, a few drops of rain earlier.
If you don't like the look of potential new neighbours jillydoll, go for it ;D

Haha, they'll be thinking, Oh Nooooo, mad woman lives next door! 🤣😂
Cloudy but ohh so cooler. Just the way I like it. 😉
I agree tho, yesterday I did loads of washing, it dried in no time.

Morning all. Cooler with a black cloud above :o. 2 days of intense heat dried out all the pot plants some which are wilting even though I watered last night. Another load of laundry out ........... hopefully the cloud will race over without raining!

Too hot to go outside, so I’m sitting indoors, half naked in front of a fan with an ice pack under my feet, listening to a neighbour splashing about in their pool ::)
-
Hello ladies.
I am in part of the country that is too damn hot!
After a sleepless night on Friday I did everything I could think of to cool down my bedroom last night. Consequently I slept so deeply that I woke up in exactly the same position that I fell asleep in. For the first time in years I didn't even need to get up to use the bathroom. Bizarre. Mind you I'm still worn out today so perhaps it takes more than one full night of sleeping to feel energised...
Take care ladies and wishing you all a cool and comfortable night tonight.
K.
-
Stayed in the cool side of the house until mid afternoon then sat by the ponds in the shade. Now outside as there's a fresh breeze brewing. Rain forecast from 8.00 p.m. on Monday .........

Now it's dull. Thunder. Gently raining with big drops :o frogs hopping all over the patio ;D. Windows open, lights on.

Had a storm last night, I’ve never seen so much lightening :o the thunder was a constant rumbling torrential rain and sudden huge gusts of wind, but its brought my outside thermometer reading down from 40 to 20 today, relief :)

I quite like it. I'm not really a summer person at all. I like the nip in the air, first thing. The misty dawn and the softer light.
Lovely. :)
-
I'm not a summer person either. Especially since starting this meno journey. I agree, I love the softer light and softer colours and cooler air. Autumn is definitely my favourite time of year. 😊
-
Another taste of summer humidity but I was working inside most of the day so I was out of it. This morning however, my walking buddies and I got an early start on our Sunday walk before it got too hot. We stayed in the shaded trails most of the time.

-
Two Hoots weather here in Yorkshire has not been great for August either a lot of cloud and it's either been 18c or lower or 26c+ none of that lovely inbetween weather. My sister commented on this last week when I saw her.

Thunder and rain :)

It's Labour Day weekend here so I've been sleeping in, but not this morning! About 4 am we were hit with a wicked thunderstorm with very high winds, lots of thunder and lightning and torrential rain. I ususally have the bedroom window at night open for fresh air (helps me sleep) but with all the noise and the light show I had to get up and close it.
It's almost 9 am now and the storm system has long moved off but it's still cloudy and pretty windy. We are due to get more rain in a couple of hours and later this afternoon.
Good day to clean the house as I doubt I'll be doing anything outdoors. :)

Did the wind pass ? ;)
Started off bright enough but turned windy with drizzle by 3.30 so home with lights on in the lounge: not cold but it is dark inside >:(
-
Drizzle in morning, dry middle of day and rain again
-
When we left home this morning it was rain, rained all the way to Swindon. In Sussex its cloudy, I’m here for the week I hope it stays dry :)
-
Oh: Brighton; Lewes; Arundel Castle; ENJOY!
-
Antiques fairs in Ardingly and Detling ;D
-
Wet. Mild though.
-
Dull. Dull. Dull.
Haven't been to Ardingly as we don't like the fact that many of the stallholders leave on the 1st evening or are packing up on the 2nd day by 11.30 but the charge remains the same :-\.
-
Cloudy day but very warm, humid with a breeze 22c
-
Kind of miserable, a taste of fall today. Cloudy and below normal for this time of year, struggled to get up to 20C and threatened rain all day.
-
Lovely autumnal day. Warm with good breeze for getting sheets out!
-
Drizzle this morning, another coolish day in store.
-
Dull. Sunny. Over cast. After 2.30 it's been FabuLUS :sunny:
-
Sunny day at last, windy in the afternoon
-
Chilly and dull.
-
After a dull start it's got brighter. 8)
-
Cloudy, not as warm as yesterday
-
Another coolish, cloudy and breezy day. The sun peeked out a bit this afternoon, sadly only for a few minutes just to tease me. ::)
-
Cloudy & breezy certainly didn't feel like 17c
-
This morning it's partly cloudy to overcast and coolish. We're expecting rain to start overnight and into the morning. It's not humid, mostly in the mid 20's.
-
Beautiful - cool in the shade. Warm in the sunshine. A slight breeze. Blue sky :-*
-
Horrendous week weather wise, no opportunity for cycle ride (been out x3 times a week the last month or so!). Today dry (for now) really wild wind. x
-
Another :sunny: day.
-
I think the sun is coming our way next week!!! 8)
-
Mainland Europe is hot this week - up to 28C and climbing across UK until Friday. Apparently. Except Scotland :-\
-
Yes I can vouch for that! (Scotland that is!! ;D)x
-
Nooooo I can't take any more hot weather - I thought we were done with all that nonsense! Not peri friendly... I can't find an emoji dissolving in a pool of sweat . There REALLY should be one on a meno site! ;D
-
:sweatdrop: that's a start for you ;)
:meltdown: :steamed: :hotflash:
-
Yes all those sum it up nicely :)
-
;D
1 hot day and then cooling by Tuesday ::)
-
:clapping:
-
Dark now - can't see. But it's muggy indoors :-\
-
Lovely yesterday. Forecast is hotter for today. :) :) :)
-
Lots of hot sunshine :)
-
Nicer afternoon, although warm. In my cycling gear, waiting on OH getting ready to go out for a ride! x
-
The air feels really warm this evening :)
-
FabULUS day ;-)
-
Too hot, 27 here today. 🥵
-
It's driven me indoors ::)
-
Raining until 11am since then warm & sunny. x
-
Coolish and sort of sunny. I say sort of because we are getting some haze from the massive wildfires in California. Last night the sunset looked like a big orange dot in a weirdish smoky sky. It's an odd thing since I live thousands of miles northeast of California. So far the air quality is ok.
-
Another day of beautiful sunshine & hot
-
It's raining! Yay! Might sleep outside tonight! ;D
-
Morning sunny, pm showers, evening misty - Autumn is here
-
Lovely misty sunrise
-
:sunny: :sweatdrop: driven indoors again :-\
-
Glorious, although the Robin is singing his Autumn song :)
-
Our birds are noisy again :-*
Bright sunshine until 4.45 now it's grumpy - no breeze so muggy.
-
What a difference a day makes! Dull but dry, cold wind
-
I believe that the US is expecting bad weather :-\ on top of the rampant fires .....
-
Rampant fires...think I suffer from them!! ;D ;D ;D
-
4 lovely hot sunny days. Now it's looking like drizzle: dark, blustery ..........
-
Its been a lovely sunny week but its drizzly today :(
-
Misty first thing followed by beautiful sunshine, unfortunately cloudy afternoon
-
Wet. No gardening for the next few days.
-
Colder, wet and grey.
-
Wet. Grumpy.
-
Much colder, was sunny rain now :(
-
Leave your door on the latch Teresa, we’re on our way.
-
Thunder, lightening and hail stones, its very dramatic and very noisy ::)
-
After a grumpy start [the weather wasn't much better :D] the sun came out really warm. At 12.45 the sky blackened: heavy rain, hail, blustery for about 20 mins., fortunately we were in the camper eating lunch. Then the air calmed and although cold it remained fine.
-
We've had nearly all four seasons today, rain, sun & hail oh & some thunder thrown into the mix
-
The past 2 days have been gorgeous for this time of year. All sun and at least 25 degrees. :) :sunny:

Yes and thunder and lightening, I had to take shelter in M & S along with several others to avoid a downpour later in the afternoon :)
-
Sunshine but chilly
-
Sun, cloud, cold, odd rain shower and very windy
-
Sunny but big difference in temperature, single figures again, frosty early morning's. Had to wear morino wool long sleeve top and shower jacket out for yesterday evening's cycle. I was fine with that OH felt cold though (obviously not working hard enough!! ;D). x
-
Glorious but chilly breeze :)
-
So far a bit of a misty morning and about 13C but will warm up later and will get muggy, like a summery day today.
-
Bright and blustery thus far. Apparently Norfolk had dreadful weather over night :o
No frost here. Yet.
-
Dry, sunny but cold. x

Lovely today. Much warmer than yesterday

Not too bad today. Bright and 16 degrees here.
The rest of the week is 😖🌧💨☔️

Beautiful start to the new month :)

Still drizzling. Hard ......... I've had to hang one very thick jumper outside on a rail to drip >:(
-
Rain overnight, small glimpses of blue sky but mostly dark clouds. Might go a walk if we can dodge a shower. x
-
A lousy fall day today. Started raining early this morning and hasn't stopped. It's damp and cold. Good day to stay inside.
-
Dry day with plenty of sunny spells
-
Raining overnight, dry, sunny but cold now. Supposedly best day of the week here!
-
Stopped raining overnight, now drizzling again :-\ - this began in the late hours of Thursday.

Very nice and sunny and mild today. The Thanksgiving weekend is a toss up for now.
-
Is it in November or sooner with you C.C.?
Looks chilly.
-
Wet, windy overnight. Damp just now but according to met office <5% chance of rain so wash on, hopefully get it out & dried. x
-
Lovely and mild this morning, a bit breezy but will take it for a long weekend here. There is a cold front on the way this afternoon, may get a thunderstorm.
-
Is it in November or sooner with you C.C.?
Looks chilly.
Our Thanksgiving is on Monday :)
-
Do U do the turkey with trimmings ........ people are wanting smaller birds this year due to the Rule of 6. Apparently. However, if necessary buy a large one and get the butcher to cut it in half and then take the wings/legs off. Cook what is necessary, freeze the rest. Will do then until Easter ;D
April showers all day!

Yup, there is a turkey (7-9kg size) defrosting in my fridge right now. The plan is to have Thanksgiving dinner on Monday with hubby and 2 of our 3 kids. My other son will be with us on Zoom, or something like that and later will drop off a plate of food for my dad.
-
Bright blue sky. Looks chilly. Absolutely calm.
-
Dry, sunny but cold. x
-
Definitely feels like fall today, barely 8C and a strong breeze from the northwest. No sunshine.
-
Sounds good C.C. - what don't you like in the way of veggies?
It's been bright most of today. Calm. Chilly. Need to fish out a thicker jumper for gardening in !
-

At Thanksgiving I do brussel sprouts with bacon, and a baked rutabaga mash casserole my mom always made and my dad requests every year. I like pretty much all veggies :)
-
rutabaga ? swede or turnip ? In England/Wales we have swede which in Scotland they call turnip ::) whereas turnip is a small white round root veg..
-
Glorious sunny day.
Save me some turkey, I love a turkey sandwich ;D
-
rutabaga ? swede or turnip ? In England/Wales we have swede which in Scotland they call turnip ::) whereas turnip is a small white round root veg..
It's round and has a waxy coating on the outside (for a purpose) and it's labelled rutabaga in the store. My mom always called them turnip, but I don't think she knew the difference.lol
Too hoots- White or dark meat? ;D
-
White please ;D with pickled onions and ready salted crisps :love:
-
GOOGLE shows a turnip!
-
I guess it can also be called a swede, I've never heard that term from here lol. Turnips are white when they're cooked but rutabagas cook up pale yellow, that's what I cook.
Two hoots- what, no mashed potatoes and gravy? ;D
-
When I cook a turkey dinner on Christmas day, I’m already looking forward to my boxing day sandwiches, im not a fan of a cooked dinner ::)
-
I don't eat turkey :-X knowingly :-\
Roast dinner, yummy. Especially if there's enough left for tomorrow ;-).
Weather - dark now, can't see 8)
-
Sunny with some cloud thrown in during afternoon
-
Mid-morning now and it's overcast and cool. Might get a sprinkle or two later on in the afternoon. At least the wind has died down.
-
Dull. Dull. Drizzle. Not cold surprisingly!
-
Drizzly showers off and on :(
-
Chucking it down >:( neighbours' cat has taken refuge in our utility room on his cushion 8)
-
Clear with a slight breeze and a bit of a chill in the air.
-
Very heavy showers this morning, I could hear them still snuggled in bed ;D now it sunny with hardly a breeze, lovely :)
-
Certainly brightened up in the Midlands since breakfast .......... :-*
-
Was lovely all day, until now, gone dark and horrible looking.
-
Sunny & cold first thing, cloud started to creep in later
-
Cool-ish and sunny, not a breath of a breeze.
-
Dry. Don't know 4 how long though. Long enough to get some cutting back done, it's not cold but there's another black cloud >:(
-
Glorious :)
-
Plenty of sunshine & warm with only a slight breeze
-
Drizzle
-
Began bright but dull now. I've put the boiler on for background warmth.
-
Lovely in the sun but chilly in the shade :)
-
Cold here. No rain yet.
-
dull, dry & cold.
-
Overcast, rainy and cold-ish, miserable really.
-
Bright most of the day, enough to potter in the garden :-). By 4.45 it had turned blustery and colder. Heating on in the background.
-
Cloudy, not too cold this afternoon
-
Rained overnight and this morning but it got really mild, it's forecasted to be 17 degrees today. It may hit 21C on Friday, and sunny!
-
It's rained heavily overnight until 3.30 p.m.
Not cold.
-
Mild and drizzly :(
-
Unbelievable weather today. Woke up to dense fog in the air, (not in my head this time lol) so it looked spooky walking to work at 6:40 am. It has now cleared up, nothing but sunshine and warm temps. We may get a bit of a humidex today. This will be short-lived however, a cold front is due tonight with t-storms and brisk temps. in the morning.
-
Autumnal then C.C.?
intermittent sunshine
-
Terrible! Wind and rain all day.
-
Chucking it against our windows right now and very blustery :-\. I can hear a pot rolling around but it's in next door's alley and they have a Large Puppy ;D who probably left it there anyway 8)
I was surprised at how cold it has been today :o
-
Wet all day :(
-
Biggest, blackest cloud outside. Trying to work out which way it's heading...
-
Heavy rain from 7.30 p.m. so shrubs are dripping as are the two towels which have been on the line since Friday ::)
Blue sky now and very pleasant. Bird feeders refilled, they soon flocked to them 8)
-
Woke to rain, quite torrential at times, we were sat in conservatory and it was quite relaxing listening to radio. Day 2 of lockdown 🤦🏻♀️
Ay brightened up a lot and nice sunshine this evening.
Clkd we have bought new bird feeders and they are very busy, I spend ages just watching both at the birds and to make sure the cat keeps away . It’s out of reach but you never know 🦅🦅
-
I spend hours watching our birds ..... both from the kitchen sink and the lounge on the other side of the house
Crikey, we've followed a hail storm, the road was 1" deep in slush :o and the sky Black ! More rain on it's way. Time to light the wood burner ........
Chucking it down against the window followed by blustery wind :o ........
-
It has been cloudy and cool the last few days, typical for this time of year. Now the weather people are warning of very cold temps. and maybe even snow for this weekend...TOO EARLY!! :'(
-
Slush yesterday :D
Bl****y awful again. Heavy drizzle. Wet underfoot. Blustery.
-
Horrendous!
Absolutely chucking it down, and blowing a storm. 😏
-
Edge of the hurricane across the US expected to cause gales++. We got caught in a rain storm on our walk >:( jeans still to dry. Not cold though ......... this will bring the apples and leaves down ;D
Have U seen Rest and Be Thankful :o and the lower road is flooded too
Sun pouring through our lounge windows now
-
Lovely and bright sunny Halloween day. Temps are cool, about 6 degrees C.
-
Wet and windy
-
It was dull, heavy drizzle until 10 mins. ago - now the sun is out 8)
-
We're having a weather system go through today, called an Alberta Clipper, from the prairies. In the winter these systems tend to bring tons of snow but today we are getting 60-80km/h wind gusts and this morning, heavy rain. Thankfully the rain has moved on but it is still very gusty and we are getting peeks of sunshine finally. Temps are dropping throughout the day to about just above freezing tonight.
I spent most of the afternoon yesterday raking the leaves covering my front lawn, but after today I'm sure I'll be raking again tomorrow!
-
Got up and went for a run this morning at 6.00 am. Very surprised to see a slight frost on the cars and on the ground. The weather forecast said it would get down to 3 degrees C last night but it was definitely much colder. This has given my locality a wonderful blue sky with sunny spells. So good to see after all the recent heavy rainfall.
-
Been nice today.
Sunny but cold.
-
1st frost in the early hours, I looked out at 2.30 and it was white, as forecast
Blue sky all day :-*
11 in the car
-
Sunny and breezy today, high of 19 degrees...a wee bit of early summer in November ;D
-
8) :-* C.C.
-
Thick mist and frost, now cleared to give :sunny: :-*
-
It's quite sunny here. No breeze tho.
The house was full of firework smoke last night from the neighbours fireworks. Again, no wind last night to blow it all away! 😡
-
Nuthin' but sunshine and 19 degrees! :)
-
Mild :-\ but no sign of the Indian Summer forecast!
Grey. Dull. Looks like drizzle .........
-
When my son was little he used to call this kind of weather 'grazy'. A cross between grey and drizzly. We still use it now!
-
We have a thread about that somewhere ;D
-
Mild but dull
-
Drizzling hard.
Supposed to be dry and sunny 2-day
PS - by 2.15 it was blue sky and sunshine ::)
-
First snowfall is happening now, thankfully it's melting as it falls. Areas north and west of me are supposed to get 10-15 cms of accumulation. I live near one of the Great Lakes so we are getting a mix of snow and rain....which I call "snrain" lol.
-
:o ....... not snow already :D
It's been blue sky since heavy overnight rain, now 3.30 p.m. and the sky is lovely. Chilly but seasonal.
-
It was thick fog and frost until 10.30 then the sky cleared to blue and it's been :sunny: ideal for gardening
-
Put some fairy lights up Franny , they'll brighten the grey 😊
-
Chucking it down >:( but not cold ::). Dull. Dull. Dull.
-
Bit murky here too. Not raining though so that's good.
-
Dull. Damp. Chilly. Sun tried, took 1 look and went back to bed ;D
-
Chilly but dry.
-
Overcast and about 7 degrees, and threatening to spit rain.
-
C.C. as long as it doesn't spit bricks ;) [said over here when someone is annoyed]
Misty with a chill in the air.
-

Misty with a chill in the air.
Lol, yes I've used that expression many times ;D
The weather today is bright sunshine, cool temps, and a bit of a breeze. Pretty nice for a late November day. All the snow we got last Sunday has completely melted! :clapping:
-
We are getting a second blast of winter today, so far we have about 4 inches of snow on the ground and more to come. Happy December...not! ;D
-
:o. fur gloves, boots and hats then? Muff with a scarf? Snow is forecast for Scotland and England on Friday. Apparently.
Today has been FabULUS
-
Miserable. Looks like sleet has frozen to the roof tops. Drizzling. Dull. :-\
-
;D .. I have a fur muff from the 1920 which needs a cord so that I can hang it correctly. It's not very warm inside, being layered with silk which I can't bear the feel of ;D. I have a poncho too but it's a phaff to wear as there's no ribbon to tie it with, ideal for chilly nights until the burner heats through.
-
As my late Dad would say 'raw' :o. Did anyone suffer thunderstorms with snow in t he early hours, apparently around Edinburgh?
Heavy drizzle here. Again.
-
I heard about the thunder claps too. Or rather snow claps.
Here it's wet, and very cold. Pretty miserable really. 😏
-
Supposed to improve next week ..... but if it's like C-19 info from Boris, next week will be a moveable experience ::)
Feel warmer now that the curtains are closed and the burner glowing ;D
-
Been snowing pretty much all day. Not really settled though.
-
Cold but sunny.
Ops correction, now sleeting. ::)
-
Complete change around: blue sky, sharp frost .........
-
Another grey cold day here. ::)
-
Night fog lifted, leaving everything touched with white :-*. Sky looks grumpy.
-
Wet and dull.
-
It couldn't make up its mind today >:(. Dull. A little sunshine from a vague blue sky. Dull. Do you get the picture ::)
-
Dreadful. Looks icy cold. It's raining sideways >:(
-
Heavy rain with lots of flooding 🙁
-
Heavy rain with lots of flooding 🙁
Oh no.
We have had steady rain all day but thankfully not heavy.
-
Some areas of England have had over 1" of rain :o
R U affected groundhog?
-
Woke to bright sunshine so got on with cleaning the birds' feeders, then the sky got grey and suddenly the rain fell. Hard!
-
Cool first thing, now the :sunny: is out from a blue sky and it's quite balmy. Must be the time of year ......... :whist:
-
Not cold but drizzling. Again >:(. It makes the day so much darker however: we get the longest day on Monday 8) so it's upwards after that 8)
-
Really cold yesterday, a big shock :o after days of mild drizzle. Warmer today :-\ still drizzling.
Shortest day :bouncing:
-
It's like night time here :o :'( and POURING with rain. I definitely won't be going for a walk 2day, the neighbours' cat crept in when I opened the door and quietly ran up to his blanket on the landing :-*
-
It rained all day today but at 4pm it cooled off and now it's snowing...snowing on Christmas Eve. So nice. We may have a white Christmas this year. I'm not feeling much Christmas spirit this year but the snow may help.
-
It's declared a White Ch.mas in Scotland anyway - snow on the Cairngorms
Here it's deep and crisp and even - without the deep ;D
-
It's white here though it's frost not snow. We had a little snow yesterday but it didn't stick.
-
? lambing yet ?
Seasonally chilly .
-
Hah! So last year THAT woman hid a tup lamb so 25 got in lamb when they shouldn't have and lambing started in Dec. So this year I made certain I'd done them all so they'll come in as planned after new year. So OH went and bought some ewes that have been running with a tup all year... grrr... 3 have bagged up, one looks as though it'll lamb any day. At least it avoided today :)
-
Get some warm clothing on over the jimjams ready? :lol: prepare that long blue plastic glove ;-).
Chmas babies - what's not to like :whist:
Drizzling fine mist up from the valley.
-
Absolutely, I never get tired of new lambs :bounci:. At least one hand will be nice and warm ;D
-
:rofl: ? but bruised ?
Dull. Chilly. Drizzle moved away ;)
-
Crikey that was a night :o- Blustery with more heavy rain :-\. I was awake until 3.00 and it was blowing. Hard. DH needless to say, slept through ::)
Calm now. Blue sky now the grumpy cloud has gone over. About to hang some laundry 8)
-
Did anyone wake to snow ? Burford in the Cotswolds had several inches as did parts of Staffordshire. Llandrindod Wells too ........ sky is grumpy here.
-
Brass monkey weather here, the thermals are on. Brrrr
-
Chilly today. ❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️
-
Sky is low, grumpy and grey. A few flakes of snow earlier.
Anyone woken to the white stuff?
-
Yes, proper snow here. Melted a bit but still a good covering. Must be warmer (or the new thermals are better), too warm for a coat this afternoon.
-
We had snow yesterday.
Snowed again this morning, but turned to rain and all the settled snow has gone.
We've got more on the way apparently. Hope OH gets home from work. 🤞🏼
-
Thick frost now bright sunshine. :sunny:
-
Sky is grumpy
Ivy is frosted along the top of the fence
Dry so far
-
Fog. More snow, just a skittering.
-
Mist setting in.
-
The first day of the year is cloudy now but we will be getting rain and freezing rain later this afternoon and tonight.
:sigh:
-
That sounds a lot of fun. Not >:(
Shovels to the ready? Woolly hats, gloves, soup ....... how's your Dad?
Here it was sharp frost, then everything is dripping ....... the sky is grey but it's not particularly cold.
-
The snow we got on Christmas Eve is pretty much gone now, we've had a couple of days of rain to see to that. I hope we don't get enough freezing rain to have to shovel, more like scraping it off the cars instead.
My Dad is doing well. He came over for Christmas day and last night for dinner. Thanks for asking! :foryou:
-
Freezing. 🥶
-
🥶 but 🌞
-
Began bright and sunny. Crisp everywhere. By 12.30 the sky had turned grumpy. Apparently sleet is expected followed by snow at 6.00 p.m. ..... I'm watching the clock now ;D
-
4 degrees, grey but dry.
-
Snowing but not much yet. Keeping an eye on the weather forecast. The early lambers need to come in soon. They have to be trailered back, they're up a very steep hill that gets blocked for days when it snows.
-
I'd get the huskies out, ready behind the sledge?
-
Can I borrow yours? I don't have a sledge big enough for 40 sheep 🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑
-
;D ......... my huskies eat sheep :-X
-
You should train them properly ;D
Might not work very well with my 'husky'. She wants to go behind and drive them, we might just go round in circles.
-
I did - they bring back pheasants etc. ;-). I don't like lamb as a meal so they are wasting their time ::). My sister's collie herded ducks into a corner and stood there for hours :-\
-
Cold and still this morning. We got a fresh dusting of snow last night so everything is white again.
-
Not feet of snow overnight yet then C.C.?
-
Cold, grey and still.
-
The sleet and snow forecast yesterday didn't arrive, nor did the heavy falls threatened overnight happen. It's very muddy everywhere. Blue sky. Chilly - seasonal then?
-
Another dry fresh day
Blue sky
Nights are pulling out :-*
-
Sunny but cold.
-
Calm. Blue sky earlier with sharp frost. Now the sky is grumpy ........
-
Sunny, and lovely.
Says -1 on my phone, that frost isn't going anywhere fast! 🥶
-
Frost this morning. Sunshine all day. But bl**dy cold.
-
Hard frost freezing fog and blooming cold.
-
Morning. Grey. Dull. Light snow .......... on a day when I have to go shopping >:(
-
-6 driving to work this morning, don't ever remember it being this cold before!! >:(
-
In 1981 when we lived in Wales it went down to -24C! The snow was so deep we had to walk 8 miles to work/college and back in the evenings for 5-6 days.
In 1963 we skated on The Wash and frozen rivers from end of Feb. through March into April and woke regularly 2 ice formed on the inside of the windows ;D
Today it's been dull.
-
Not as cold today light snow this morning
-
Misty
Blue sky and sunshine - probably. Will be nice if they break through :)
-
So warm today, thought I was burning a temperature!! ;D
-
I can see blue sky ;D but haven't yet stepped outside.
-
A cloudy and cool frosty morning. The sun is supposed to peek out at some point during the day. So far our winter has been pretty bearable so far. No snowfall since Christmas Eve and the temps have been around 0 degrees for the most part.
-
Morning C.C. - blue sky earlier, blustery wind now which is driving clouds across the sky :o. Not really cold though. How's your Dad?
-
Seasonal. After very heavy rain for hours earlier in the week, followed by blustery wind for hours ......... sharp frost from a blue sky in bright :sunny: greets me today :-*
-
We’re having a load of snow at the moment.
Can’t believe how much has come down in such a short time. :o
-
OHHHH - snowman in a bowl in the morning then? using 'marigolds' to keep the hands dry?
It's been Beautiful here today :-*
-
What about your doggie jd? Does she love or hate the snow? And what about you, having to take her out in it?
JP x
-
It's raining. Again.
-
Sleet.
-
Sunny from a blue sky. :-*
-
Good Saturday morning, it's nothing but blue sky but it's cold..brr..-8 degrees C. It's the coldest morning of the winter so far. I'm not complaining because the darn sun is out finally! :sunny:
CLKD-- Dad is doing ok,(thank you for asking) I saw him yesterday. He's chomping at the bit to get his shot but since there won't be any shipments to Canada this coming week and, not until all long-term care homes and front line workers have been vaccinated in Ontario, he still needs to wait. His 88th is next month and he said the shot would be the best birthday present. :)
-
The sky is darkening. Towels are as wet as when I put them out, they may be under a snow storm shortly ;D especially as the birds are eating me out of house and home :o :-*
Not too cold. Can nip round the garden without a coat ........
Glad your Dad is doing OK C.C. - chomping at the bit about covers some issues ;D. 88 is good! :cake:
There's something in the air ............. >:(
-
Snows disappearing slowly.
It’s been sunny, snowy, then sleet, now sunny again.
Freezing though. 🥶
-
That drizzle of snow didn't last long.
-
Sharp frost overnight and now snowing ::). Sky is heavy and dark.
-
Towels remain on the line. Birds very busy. Light drizzle/snow now but sky is thick and grey. Not to cold but needed wellies in the garden.
-
About 2 inches of snow, enough to crunch underfoot and for the kids to be out building snowmen. The dog loved her walk and run in it , topped up the bird feeders.
-
Splendid blue sky, calm, bright sunshine, chilly air. Seasonal :-*
No snow overnight. Crunchy underfoot.
-
Loads of snow and ice on our street.
Main roads aren’t too bad....apparently. 🤷🏼♀️
OH & son are just clearing their cars of it. I’ll see them in two hours. ;D
-
Did U need to take out mugs of hot chocolate?
Our side roads are ice/snow/crunchy - made roads have been salted. It's lovely.
-
We had more snow overnight so I had to top up the bird feeders.Sun came out and started a thaw in the afternoon, but the temperature has dropped and it's started to freeze again. Don't fancy the roads in the morning.
-
Sky is dull >:(
-
We are due to get at least 15cm (6 inches) of snow starting about an hour from now. The sky is darkening and the wind has picked up out of the East, which always means we are in for a big storm.
Boots and shovels are at the ready. ::)
-
Hats, gloves, waders - then sit inside and watch?
Dull. Drizzling occasionally. Getting splattered by melting snow from the shrubs ::)
-
Heavy boots, hat, mitts and a scarf for shoveling later tonight when it's supposed to calm down. Or stay inside and let DH do it when he gets home from work. ;)
I ordered two books from Amazon so I will make a big mug of tea and sit by the front window and dive into one of the books and let it snow.
-
Oh what you reading, we have a 'bookworm' thread somewhere.
-
I bought these through a recommendation from a friend, "Bear Lake" by Fredrik Backman and "The Hunting Party" by Lucy Foley. I have to start reading other stuff besides Stephen King!
-
New titles to me ;-)
-
Me too! Should be interesting, both of them. :)
The snow is tapering off a bit now so I suppose I should get shoveling!
-
:o. the snow has gone :o and it's warm >:(
-
Send that warmth across the pond CLKD, this morning it's sunny but it's -13 C, with a windchill of -18...brrrr!!!
:bbq:
-
Windchill can be biting. It's sunny again from a blue sky. 4cast is to get colder by Sat., ::) ....... hedgehog won't know whether to stay asleep or get out of bed :D
-
We’ve loads of snow coming apparently from tonight. 🥶
Hopefully they’ve got it wrong and it’ll be just a few flurries. 🤞🏼
OH has already cleared it at work, to leave early if it comes down a lot. Don’t want him stuck at work all over the weekend. 😱
-
Sky looks like there's snow in it. It does depend however, on which 4cast one sees/reads ;D. The best way is to look out of the window ;)
Not cold this morning. A little blue sky.
-
It’s dried up here, so I kicked the dog out. ;D
Now she wants to come back in. 🤨 🤷🏼♀️
-
;D
Is she sitting. Glum looking :D
Too dark to see.
-
After heavy rain all night, the sky is grey and the snow can't decide whether to settle or not >:(. Not cold though. Birds busy :-*
-
It's snowing hard in the back garden but not the front :-\
-
No snow but very 🥶
-
Sleet rain and very cold. 😞
-
Frosty overnight, defrosted now and dry. x
-
Ground is hard. Bird baths frozen solid. We missed the best of the day .......... ;D. sky is grey now.
-
Frost and ice grey skies
-
Crikey - they've got in Manchester and Sheffield :o
Breezy here with bits of blue sky 8)
-
It was sunny earlier this morning but it's starting to cloud over, still cold though. The snow is sticking around.
-
Pavements clear C.C.?
Blue sky again :-)
-
Bit warmer with some sun, more birds about today too.
-
Dull. Not as cold. Rained overnight - heavily.
-
Pavements clear C.C.?
Blue sky again :-)
Yep, the roads are clear thanks to the sunshine and the sidewalks aren't a problem. If I wanted to walk in the trails, they are still snow-covered and slippery. We don't have much snow now, just enough to cover the ground.
A sunny and chilly day in store for today.
-
Foggy this morning, raining tonight .
-
Too early to look out the window to find out ;D
-
Woke up to a bit more snow that fell overnight but it's very windy and the temps are falling quickly. The windchill will be close to -20 by tonight.
-
Proper weather then C.C. Many years ago I had an e-mail from a Canadian friend - 10 feet of snow had fallen overnight :o.
Lovely dry chilly day here. Snow 4cast ?
-
Dry with some sun this afternoon
-
? calm B4 the storms ? as it's blue sky, bright :sunny: but chilly in the shade
Air is still
-
Wet and dull
-
Sleet followed by snow from 9.30 p.m., by 7.00 a.m. all gone. Lawns, car roofs, shrubs were covered but not lawns. Sky is now grumpy ....
I can add that despite the sunshine the wind is blustery and icy cold :o. Towels are well pegged on the line, blowing. Hard. ;D
-
I’ve given up pegging out the washing, it never dries. Service will resume in the Spring.
-
The 2 large towels remain as wet as when I hung them out ::) - the others are fine.
Dull now. A few specks of snow during the afternoon.
-
A smattering of snow in the early hours. Dull, looks like there's more to drop. :(
Not like Kent, Suffolk, Sheffield and Manchester though :o
It's that fine, stingy drizzly snow now - birds fed :-*
-
Sunny and bitterly cold, -13 with -20 windchill as I walked to work this morning, before sun up.
It will warm up to a balmy -6 this afternoon. This is due to a polar vortex and will last through the week. ???
-
Yep we're getting similar weird conditions. Nights are pulling out :-*
-
I was browsing photographs sent in by the public to the Scotland BBC site - there are some of star shaped snowflakes, quite a rare phenomenon apparently.
Worth a lookC 8)
-
Lovely blue sky and sunny late morning /early afternoon, then snow flurries. Very cold
-
FabULUS! I think there was fog which froze :-*. Bright blue sky. Crisp under foot. 8)

Very cold again today with a bitter wind

Last day of the cold weather today

Minus 3 today . Brrrr
-
Dull - looks like more snow up there :o
Crisp cold
Dry
Any1 remember grandad's long johns frozen on the line or shirts with arms outstretched due to the very cold wind?
The cars aren't frozen, have broken the ice on the ponds, topped up the birds' water baths .........
Browsing the BBC Country websites there are some super photos of icy/snowy conditions as well as a weekly thread - it's 'shelter' themed today.
-
Crisp
Cold
Grey
But nice and warm indoors!

Yep - our wood burner is blazing.
Drizzling outside and ice is melting.

1 large block of ice remains on the patio
Dull

Lovely day here.
Went for a walk, even caught sight of the sun. 🙂
-
Sun is pouring into our lounge :-* :)
Dark cloud above though :o
Not cold
Most of the ice has gone on the top pond
Not nice enough to hang laundry on the line
-
The sky went a strange grey/pink colour now it's pouring :o
-
Grey, but warmer at least.
Winds getting up.
And it’s not me. ;D
-
Lovely sunny morning and not cold
Went for a walk and were caught in a heavy shower - I had my wet weather coat on : Himself :D
More sun followed by rain.
-
Nice walk with the dog as it's been warmer. Muddy fields meant bathing her on our return, but rain late afternoon .
-
The wind is so much colder today :o. Heavy rain over night, drizzle earlier, blue sky and calm now.
-
Heavy rain, Sun, more rain, Sun, more rain ,finally dry.🌂🌞🌞🌂🌞🌈
-
25 mins ago I stood chatting with our neighbour of the fence, we were basking in warm sunshine. I tied in a clematis and the sky got darker and darker - now it looks like it's going to throw something this way :o :o
-
Raining >:(
-
Sunny
-
:sunny: 8) and dry
-
Lovely day here.
Sun shining most of the day. 😅
-
After 2 huge dumpings of snow in the last week and a half ( probably 2ft) the sun is shining and it's melting! :banana: The temp is going up to 8 degrees! Feels like spring today. 8)
-
Warm :o
Blustery
2ft of snow I can well do without ;)
-
After a dull cool morning the rain has arrived. It looked earlier as though it might snow :o ....... so my washing is getting a heavenly rinse >:( ::)
-
Cold ,with intermittent rain.
-
Sunny but blustery and cold. The snow is gradually melting with the sunshine.
-
Hi C.C.! this morning was dull and icy cold, we've seen a little sunshine in the last hour. Not nice enough for me to be working in our garden.
-
Cold today, but grateful for the dry weather and sun as I love having the windows open at home for as long as possible (one of life's little pleasures, lol)
-
Started sunny but now grey, though dry. Quiet a breeze.
-
Variable ::) but icy cold.
Sun trying to break through occasionally.
Birds very busy which always precedes a cold spell :o
At least it's dry!
-
Birds very busy which always precedes a cold spell :o
I didn't know that, lol, they must know ;D
Apparently the weekend is going to be cold and wet, etc, I'm making the most of today
-
Not wet :-\ my towels have been on the line since Tuesday ;D
Dull. Dull. Dull.
-
Do you chip the icicles off them before you use them?
-
;D. do U remember Grandad's long Johns on the line, frozen solid? And shirts with arms hanging out sideways, stiff! ;D
-
I really perked up with the sunshine, but I think there will be little of it for the weekend. Never mind, at least spring is on it's way and the days are a bit longer now. :)
-
As 4cast - wet, blustery, dull.
-
Wet and miserable
-
Sunny and 14 degrees today. :sunny:
-
:na:
Nowt but rain here >:(
-
Fierce wind :o. It was howling round the house since 7.30 p.m., black cloud in 1 direction so waiting to see what that will drop B4 heading out for a long walk. Blustery. Plants blown out of the pots so had to 'hunt the pot' after breakfast ;D. Birds flying backwards ::)
-
A balmy 16 degrees this morning but with strong winds, we are in for rain later and the temps are going to drop.
-
? with snow again ?
Sun is pouring through our lounge window from a blue sky, wind from the South is blustery.
-
No snow just yet but I'm sure we'll get more at some point. After all it's only March!
-
It's changeable. Still very windy. We had a brisk walk and it wasn't cold. It rained from a blue sky earlier :o, the sun was out. A few large spots which drove us inside :D. Fain 4cast >:(
-
Very changeable all week, wild nights heavy rain & wind. Days between wind, cold, rain and hail short spells of blue sky! Too risky to chance a walk so far this week (had restarted my evening walks last week). x
-
Morning Foxylady - wind has howled round the house since mid-yesterday morning - I am wondering how many plants I will have to rescue, we are open-plan here so they could have blown miles ;D
Dry yet.
-
It blew hard in the night, calm now. Blue sky. Not cold.
-
Raining.
-
Which it would make up it's mind :bang: the last 3 days it's started nice and warm, to the point of shedding jumpers but getting colder in the afternoons. At least it's dry and I've been able to do lots in our garden.
-
Wide open sunshine and going to be 18 degrees later on today. Already went out for a brisk walk and back for lunch.
-
Do U know how far you walk, DH did a google on Sat. of our regular routes: we were surprised at how far we traverse.
How was your week? Weather here has been sunny/chilly/damp/cold ........ seasonal then ;D
-
I walked a hair over 6 km, part trails, part sidewalks.
My week was ok...same sh*t, different day ;D
-
Better not to step outside the s**t mayBe ........ at least you know what's happening.
Lovely sunset ..........
-
Blue sky
Sunshine - intermittently
Chilly breeze
Sudden bluster went through about an hour ago, almost blew me off my feet :o
-
Doesn't any1 else have weather ? It began bright and chilly, now warmer with a grey sky >:(
-
We've had grey mornings followed by sunny afternoons, actually sat out for a bit this afternoon .
-
Drizzling. Hard. Not 4cast at all >:( ....... fire lit. Chilly, 7 in the car.
-
Sun lounger will be out Tuesday 8)
-
Don't let on where you are, we'll all be down in the charabanc ;D
Rained heavily in the night
Blue sky
Blustery surges which scream round the house
Not cold
-
Grey. Blustery. Dull. And that's the weather ::)
-
Gusts of wind and dull.
-
Nice here today.
A bit breezy, but warmer.
-
Began dull. By mid-morning the :sunny: was out. I slept in the camper with the sun pouring through the windows :-*
If this continues I will need to water the pot plants 2morrow evening.
-
Chilly to start ,then sunny.
-
Same today ........... I will stand my fuchsias etc. out for a while to harden off the stems.
-
Sunny and breezy, going up to a high of 17 degrees! Brought my tropical hibiscus out to the back porch for some sun and hopefully the wind will blow off those annoying little whiteflies!
I better enjoy today because tomorrow is back to reality with cold rain and maybe flurries. >:(
-
C.C. - flurries are 4cast for The North - that'll be Scotland then ;D
It's been glorious today. I've brought the pot plants into the porch overnight in case the cold dips. I can see a pelegonium that requires cutting back, I can probably get 3 new plants off it. The fuchsias will need standing in water with some feed added.
Clear sky. Absolute calm.
-
Lovely and warn, sat outside for lunch
-
Too early to open my eyes enough to tell ;D ask me mid-afternoon ;D
-
Temps are dropping this morning. It was a nice walk to work but now the wind is coming from the NW and its darn right chilly. The sun may come out later but it will still feel like 0 degrees.
-
C.C. - we'll be keeping up by Sunday. Apparently. This warm spell isn't going to last.
:sunny: so warm again
-
Frosty start. Blue sky. Bright :sunny:. Snow is forecast 'and as it moves down towards the south, will fall from the sky' :o [The Times, yesterday].
-
Beautiful here.
Full sun shining through patio windows. 😊
-
;D. snowing ;D. from the sky :o
Sun is out too :-\
-
BBC Scotland has photos sent in by people - in the snow ;D
It's dammty cold out there :o
-
Woke to a small hail storm and grey skies. Sunny afternoon, but a cold breeze.
-
The change in temp from Sunday to yesterday was 4cast but still shocking! I can see frosted shed roofs and a blue sky, haven't ventured out yet.
Blue sky. Icy wind. Blustery. Dry.
-
Snowing from a blue sky ;D
Neighbours' cat very disgruntled ::)
-
We've had icy winds, Sun and blue skies, grey skies and snow flurries 😕
-
Blue sky at 6.00 now it's looking like snow >:( :o and a sharp frost has been had!
-
The weather has been so nice this week, have spent more time outside rather on my laptop :o. It's been clear sunshine and double digit temps and more to come this weekend.
-
? snow all gone C.C. ? we've had a range of temperatures from freezing, really warm back to snow ::)
Grumpy sky all day but it's not as cold
-
? snow all gone C.C. ? we've had a range of temperatures from freezing, really warm back to snow ::)
Grumpy sky all day but it's not as cold
We haven't had snow on the ground for almost 3 weeks now. I'm hoping we're done with the snow for this spring.
-
That's what I thought: until I woke 2 mornings ago ;D
-
Chilly wind in the shade from a blue sky. Sun is warm . Absolutely calm.
-
Beautiful sun, quite warm for a change, but the garden needs rain.
-
Beautiful here today, not too cold, sunny.
Been for a lovely walk with the dog, it really picked me up. 🙂
-
Frost first thing then sunny and warm, grey and cold. Neither one thing nor another, garden needs rain.
-
Our garden needs rain too, I will put the hose over later after the frost has cleared
Blue sky. Sharp frost. Calm.
-
Hose put over yesterday and this afternoon once the sun was off the pots.
DH had to set a trap as we have a rat living under the pond lining :o. If it gnaws through the liner :o :o >:(
However, it's been warmer and nice enough to sit out. Dry weather 4cast.
-
Sunny this morning and this afternoon will get nicely mild. Dare I say we may be getting wet snow :P on Wednesday.
-
Is that the 'wrong' type of snow? Sunny and warm, up to 13 in our car.
-
Wet snow can be pretty heavy to shovel. Man, I hope we don't get enough to shovel! Hopefully it will be mild enough and most will melt on contact. The morning commute will be a challenge for dh going into work.
-
Does he walk or cycle C.C.?
Too warm ;D
-
No, he has a 45-minute commute both ways on a major highway, but as of next Monday, he'll be changing departments and will be working from home.
-
Beautiful day here again.
Full sun shine all afternoon. 😊
-
A cabin at the bottom of the garden then C.C.?
It's been warmer 2day :)
-
A cabin at the bottom of the garden then C.C.?
We have a 4ft x 4ft cedar shed stuck in the corner of the backyard, that will have to do ;D
-
Woke up to... SNOW...omg it's looking like December! The roads are wet but the trees and grass are covered. It looks festive ??? ???. Thankfully it doesn't look like I'll be shovelling, just brushing off the car so I can drive. Temps will rise during the next 2 days so it will melt and that better be that for snow!
-
:o ........ not enough to build a snow person though?
The air is cooler today :-\, I will need a coat on when gardening later. Blue sky. Blustery so hopefully my sheets will dry without being pooopped on!
4 x 4 is about large enough ;D
-
Maybe a small snowman? ;D
-
Melted by now ?
Warmed up by now, 3.00 p.m.; inside 4 a break
-
It has started to melt already. The sun keeps peeping in and out and the wind is blowing the snow off the trees.
-
;D. OK as long as you don't stand under those trees ;D
Became warmer as the day moved on.
-
Snow is 99.9% gone now. What's left is just bits along the fence, and not melting because it's below zero this morning. ::)
-
It was sharp here at Dawn. Lovely :sunny: all day. Looks like it will be frosty again.
-
Lovely here. 16 here.
Not 16 people, 😂 16 degrees.
-
Dark cloud above >:(. The wind has changed >:( >:( Not cold. Yet.
-
On and off showers this morning, cooler than yesterday. Lazy Sunday.
-
Was that rain or snow C.C.? Out of the wind the :sunny: is lovely :-*
-
Not snow thankfully! Just partly cloudy now, rain seems to be done for the day.
-
Absolutely freezing, despite a bit of Sun. Helping OH build a raised bed on legs for strawberries and even with a coat on I was shivering.
-
Steady rain from 6.45 p.m.. Overcast now. Not cold. Don't think the rain will have penetrated far as the Earth is so dry.
-
Dull. Dull. With occasional :sunny:
Not as cold as yesterday ;)
-
It's been unseasonably cool the past couple of days, and no sun. Today there are wind warnings posted, gusts could get up to 70kph, or 45 mph :o
-
:o. batten down the hatches!
The wind is fresh here.
-
Can’t believe it’s May and it’s cold.
-
4cast for this week is foul >:(
-
The water butts are overflowing
-
Oh havne't checked ours.
Blustery.
Wet.
Noisy at times.
Heating on.
-
Dull start, then rain and wind.
-
Wind has dropped
-
Miserable since Sat, forecast is to stay the same till next week anyway! >:( Mind you saying that we had a really good run of great weather, got alot done in the garden. x
-
More miserable weather here too. The past few days have been cool, windy and rainy. Its kept me inside, forced to putter around the house when I would rather be outside cleaning up the garden! Hopefully tomorrow the rain will end and the sun will come out.
-
C.C. - I think our weather began in your direction but I won't hold that against you ;D
Heavy shower earlier. Now it's :sunny: not particularly cold but blustery.
-
Windy start to the day, lots of showers including hail. 😞

C.C. - I think our weather began in your direction but I won't hold that against you ;D
Heavy shower earlier. Now it's :sunny: not particularly cold but blustery.

Too late ;D ........ intermittent hail :D

Sun, rain,thunder and hail

Better than in Scotland ;D - snow, slush, 3-4" in places ..........
You're going where jaypo, you'll need your chains on the wheels ;)
It's done everything today except snow.

-
Atrocious! 😤
-
Atrocious here too until about an hour ago & the sun is now shining.
-
Rain rain and more rain .🌂🌂🌂
-
Too early to decide .........
-
I think the rain has stopped!
-
pitiful! >:(
-
Dull. Dull. Dull. Have put laundry out 'cos there's no where inside to hang it, if it gets a Heavenly Rinse it won't do any harm. The thick sheet has had two rinse/spin cycles after a 25 mins wash and there's still soap in it!
Not as cold :-* but the ground is wet. MayB put off planting until later in the week ;)
-
Still no rain and the odd sunny spell
-
Gorgeous day so far, sunny and coolish.
-
Hi! C.C. - snow all gone? Signs of Spring?
-
Hi! C.C. - snow all gone? Signs of Spring?
Oh gosh yes, gone weeks ago! My lilacs have started flowering, the forsythias have done blooming and the trees are pretty much leafed out completely. So far this month the weather has been more April like than early May! :-\
-
It's drizzling again.
-
Another sunny morning but still cool. Will wait til after lunch to warm up to put out the hibiscus for some sun.
-
April showers ;D . Supposedly becoming warmer.
-
Definitely April showers, followed by Sun all day .
-
Began dull. Bright sunshine and warm. Now raining - hard. So can't get on with my planting!
-
Started sunny, cloud crept in had a shower around 4pm now sunny again. Seem to be having April showers in May!
-
Showers again today ,followed by sunshine. The window cleaner came today, waste of time as it threw it down as he was finishing. More heavy rain and gusts of wind early ever, but quiet now.
-
April showers - of course, I've got towels on the line blowing in the wind >:(
Not cold though. Had to work in the shade earlier 8)
-
Sunny and summer-like temperatures all this week! Finally, the threat of frost is gone and I can start planting...something....somewhere.... ;D
-
Do U have a list: of something; somewhere 8)
Drizzling now. Sky is black.
-
Mostly sunshine today. No rain.

Sunshine and showers

Wind, rain, more wind, more rain :cuss: :cuss:

Rain and it’s forecast all day. Heating is on.
-
Wind rain more wind more rain
-
Raining from a blue sky :o. The :sunny: is warm.
Yesterday people were leaving the East Coast in droves, due to the awful 4 cast - we were headed in the opposite direction ;D. Sat and watched surf boarders at Hunstanton - it was RUFF out there :D
-
We had great Fish and chips in Hunstanton
-
There was a good chippy close to the landing strip into the sea - began with a 'V' I think, something like 'vegas'?
-
Muggy
Dull
Occasional signs of the sun
Feels like there is drizzle in the air :-\
-
It's been quite warm and sunny today :)
-
Dull, sunny, chilly, warm ......... OK though :-*

Dull with warm patches of sunshine today.

Bright. Drizzle for 4 hours. Bright.
-
Cloudy with drizzle :(
-
Muggy. Over cast after a lovely day of :sunny:
The garden holding barrels need rain ;-)
-
So much for the eclipse, thick cloud and drizzle :-\
-
I forgot about it! We were in Aberystwyth one time, the birds stopped singing and it got very dull on an already dull day ::)
It's been dark; cloudy; sunny; warm; a few spots of rain; muggy now. Hopefully if the warmer weather does arrive, I will be able to take a cuppa to our patio after dark to watch our hogs and frogs. So far this year it's been too chilly!
Bet it will be hot for the 3 weeks of le Tour even if they get rain in France ;D
-
:sunny: :sweatdrop:
Keeping in the shade as much as possible.
-
Better than the scorched of yesterday, still hot but more bearable.We were able to have dinner outside.
-
Ohhhh. messy. .......... :whist:
Cool enough to wear a jumper this evening. FabULUS sunset 8)

Hail. Rain. Storms - 4cast from mid-2morrow afternoon :o >:(. It will be all or nothing? Our holding barrels are in need of a top up.
-
Too bloody hot. 🥵 ;D
Especially when you’ve the oven on. >:(
-
🥵 A new fan has been purchased
-
jillydoll - try shutting the oven door ?
Blue sky thus far.
-
I woke in the early hours to a drip, drip, clunk - rain hitting the metal can under the bedroom window >:(
Steady rain ☔️ which should reach the roots. At last. Our holding barrels should fill, we need more but don't have enough space to stand them.
In Sachenring however, it's 28C at 9.00 a.m. and temps continue to rise :o. Fortunately in a way that there aren't spectators ???
-
Shrubs are dripping ;D
Holding barrels are full 8)
Sky is dark >:(
-
We had rain during the night but not much.
-
Cold, had the heating on tonight
-
Dull all day
Began raining at 5.30 ; continues
heating on ;-)
-
🌞🌞🌞
-
C.C. R U in the regions affected by high temperatures, I keep wondering having seen the U-tube of the mummy bear with her cubs helping themselves to some cooling pool swimming ;D
Here. It's dull. Chilly for June :-\
-
Hot and sunny, today I’ve been looking for the shade yesterday I was wearing a cardigan ::)
31 years ago today it was thundery showers, I was a blushing bride ;D
-
Happy anniversary. :congrats: TH.
Overcast, warm-ish.
-
Will there be :cupcake: ?
:congrats: best wishes 2 U both
Blue sky and muggy ..........
-
Scones and clotted cream rather than cake ;)
Cloudy but quite warm.
-
>hands over plate<
Lovely warm ☀️ earlier, now it's cloudy ⛅️
-
Cloudy start, hot afternoon
-
☔️
-
With bells on :o - rain 🌧 pouring straight from the sky. Dull. Dull. Dull. Ah well, housework beckons :-(
-
Showers and then thunder 😨
-
Bright sunshine, blustery after overnight heavy rain.
-

Nope, I'm on the other side of the country, 3 provinces away. Although we have had some sticky weather lately, but nothing quite like that. Today we are getting some relief, had a thunderstorm go through at 4 this morning. I had to get out of bed and close the window as the rain and wind was blowing straight at it. More rain for today and tomorrow.
-
U could have stood in the window with your shower gel and a towel ;D
It's lovely here with 🌧.............
Unlike in France: Mon Ventue is dry until the top where it's covered in thick fog ::)
-
Thankfully the rain didn't come in, but the wind was making the blinds bang on the window frame.
It's now breezy, cloudy, and 15 degrees cooler than yesterday.
-
It's been torrential, sudden showers 🚿 all afternoon :o
Calm now. Nice 🌅
-
It's cloudy, cool, and raining right now. We are due for some heavy rain and t-storms later this morning into the afternoon.
-
Storms would be useful 4 parts of Canada!
Warmer as the morning wears on.
-
Nicer today, warmer and no rain.
-
We've sat out side watching the birds, pottered around cutting back and tying in ..........
There was a sudden storm mid afternoon, then fine: followed by a black ☁️ but it didn't rain :-)
-
Overcast and cool, kind of depressing for July weather. In for more rain later this afternoon. Hopefully, the sun will be out for the weekend. With all this rain, the weeds are proliferating! >:(
-
Partly cloudy and mildish but getting muggy. We are in for scattered T-storms again all day tomorrow..great, more rain. ::) ::)
-
HOT! and expected to reach 30 by Sunday :o. It's F1 in Northamptonshire this weekend - there will be a lot of burnt shoulders, faces etc., I expect that medical personnel will be busy++ up there. Add alcohol to the mix ?
I did some weeding earlier but was driven inside by the heat. Now in the cool, getting round my lunch 8)
However, mainland Europe has been devastated by flooding .......... :'(
-
There was a cold front that went through the part of the province yesterday afternoon, and it spawned an EF-2 grade tornado in a city called Barrie, about a 1.5-hour drive north of me. Dh and I used to live there 25 years ago and ds #1 was born there. The tornado hit a neighbourhood not far from where we used to live. Lots of devastation, some injuries, but no lives lost, thankfully. It didn't rain at all here, though the forecasters had been calling for severe storms for the afternoon...no rain came till bedtime.
This morning it's cooler and calmer, the last few days have been very hot and muggy.
-
How much of these anomalies are 'climate change' ? :-\
Lovely ☀️ in France :-)
-
I don't know, but it's not unusual to have tornados pop up every so often this time of year. Once in a while, a really bad one will happen but thankfully not too often.
-
🌞🌞🌞
-
Rainy day today, good for the lawn and garden.
-
We don't have lawn ;D
HOT++ 🥵
-
Watering the tubs and hangers is hard work in this weather. So hot.
Gave up with the water buts and used the hose.
-
I gave up on hanging baskets years ago as it was tiring.
Blue sky, white clouds, absolutely still - Summer has arrived but ALL at once ::). It will end in storms and flooding. Of course >:(
-
Hanging baskets are a phaff but always brighten up the front of the house.
-
I love 'em. I drove by a property during the week, full of colourful begonias in many colours: it must have taken hours++ to water that lot unless they have an automatic drip system. Petunias I like but they get sticky when dead heading ::)
Still hot.
-
Too hot for me. 🥵
-
We have shade if you scurry over 8) ;)
Still hot :D
-
Too hot 8)
-
R U watching them roll into Paris ? :-* Hot there too .
-
30 here! 🥵
HEELLLPPPPPP, IM MELTING! ;D
Sat by the fan all flipping day. 🤷🏼♀️
-
Me too. Not sure if I’ll sleep tonight 🥵
-
:sunny: :sweatdrop:
-
It's hot and muggy with the added problem of residual smoke from wildfires in the north part of the province. We have air quality alerts yesterday and today. There's a slight haze in the air and they're asking people not to do any vigorous outdoor activities. We should get some relief later due to some rain coming into the area later today.
-
Will U need to pack up and be ready to run :-\
-
Thankfully no, the fires are in the extreme northwest of the province, many miles away and well as out in the western Prairies. All the smog and smoke is being driven down to the southern part of the province and into Quebec. You can still go out but they caution those will cardiovascular and breathing issues not to go out for any length of time for today.
-
I would still be packed :-\
:sunny: :sweatdrop: :sweatdrop:
-
I was in Spain a few years ago and there huge fires in the area, we didnt get any daylight it was dark and gloomy all day, very strange. The air quality was terrible, it gave me a sore throat, luckily we were only there for a day.
Its still hot here, its forecast cool with rain on Saturday, roll on Saturday ;D ;D ;D
-
Yep. Weather to change by the weekend. That was it then?
Thunder rolling round for a few hours and we drove home following the storm, drains simply can't cope! Who ever had the idea of putting the drain level with the road ...... instead of slightly below to catch any water :-\
-

Can’t wait for the rain on Saturday, I’m going lie on the grass and get wet
-
? 'photos ? ;D
There's no breeze ............ :sweatdrop: :sunny:
-
Finally, more comfortable 20 degrees and 68% humidity this morning, thanks to t-storms last night.
-
Today has been the most humid and I think its going to be difficult to sleep tonight :-\
-
Cooler here in the south today with a breeze at last. My bedroom temperature is "only" 78f ;D
Taz x
-
Which would be great in the Winter ;D
-
Gorgeous morning so far, bright and sunny with no humidity...yet.
-
Cooler
and Drizzling >:( ;D
-
Cooler…….. THANK THE LORD. ;D
No rain here yet. :-\
-
Cool and breezy. Bliss. Slept for 7.5 hours and woke up once.
Prior to this I must have woken up about 300 times.
-
So much cooler and nicer :)
-
You are nice all the while ;)
I didn't sleep on Friday night - can 1 be 'slept out'? Last night was great. I had re-sheeted the bed, everything was fresh and cool. Woke a couple of times 4 a bathroom visit ...... weird dreams though: we were painting trees and leaves :-\
-
Sunny and muggy today, same for tomorrow.
-
Was waiting for rain but didn't get any , just more uncomfortable heat
-
You could have had some of ours. We've had flooding. ::)
-
You could have had some of ours. We've had flooding. ::)
I hope you mean your area and not you personally :o
-
No, not me personally. :)
Drove through it though.
-
Another hot and humid day, with another air quality warning from the wildfires again.
-
Poured yesterday evening then the sun came out until in the night.
Lovely morning with a few drizzle moments, now it's pouring. Again. At least I won't have to water the pots etc. ;-). Thundering with ⚡️ too!
-
Sunny for about 45 mins now the sky is black! Warm enough though.
-
Batten down the hatches, another named storm is on it's way with projected 75MPH winds :o. Another reason not to go camping ;D ;D
-
Unsettled today, muggy, and off and on showers with a bit of sunshine thrown in here and there for good measure.
-
Ok today. Fresher. Sunny intervals.
Tomorrow’s looking 🌧💨☔️
-
It's been blustery at times in the Midlands and there are now yellow warnings across South Wales :o
-
After lovely ☀️ yesterday, it's drizzling. Hard. Again :(
Lots of sport on this weekend, horse racing, Classic Cars racing/showing in Northamptonshire ......... plus I need to get into my garden >:(
-
Sunny and very breezy, quite coolish but thankfully no humidity.
-
About a month's worth of rain in 20 minutes in sunny Notts.
-
........... then the ☀️ ⛅️ comes out?
Like April showers in the Midlands :o
-
When the ☀️ shines it's warm. Otherwise, constant drizzle >:(
-
Off and on showers today. The sun just peaked out for about 5 minutes, I had some hope, then clouded over again. Maybe t-storms for later this afternoon. ::)
-
Heavy drizzle until mid-afternoon. The 🌞 is warm. 🌧 threaten ::) Not cold.
-
It's a provincial holiday today so many are out enjoying a gorgeously sunny, unhumid day today. :)
-
What did U do today thus far C.C.?
After all the sports events across the UK - in heavy rain - it's been fine today! Quite cool.
-
Besides the walk this morning, did some gardening, weeded and watered and inspected the mystery melon. Still no sign of fruit. Also baked some chocolate chip cookies. Ds is a little off with panic attacks so I need to stay close.
-
Panic attacks are awful. Any particular triggers? It doesn't take much to set mine off >:(
Dull here. Threatening drizzle and not a good 4cast for the weekend. >hands over plate for cookies<
-
Muggy. Intermittent light drizzle. Blustery.
-
Stinking hot today and for the next few days, 30's feeling like over 40. ::) With all that humidity, there's a chance of t-storms every day, so it's hard to plan anything outdoors. ::)
-
R the panic attacks triggered by hot weather, I was more vulnerable during a heat wave - due to burning up energy quicker than usual.
Strange coloured sky last night, followed by a short, very sharp storm. Earlier this morning the sky was black - temp in the car shot up to 25 from a blue sky with ⛅️. Warm enough 4 me!

Hot weather usually doesn't, but he does get a bit anxious during a storm. Having said that, he's so much better with them now than when he was younger.
Heavy dark clouds are starting to roll in now, should start raining within the next hour.
-
Dull after a sunny morning. Chillier too. Autumnal :'(
At least we don't have the earthquake like Haiti :-\
-
After a dull start, the ☀️ is blazing :-*. Where I'm working in the garden, far 2 hot so inside now. :sweatdrop:
-
Muggy
Air is still - no laundry blowing on the line >:(
Rain 🌧 4cast - of course, it's weekend!
-
Sunny, hot and muggy and no breeze. Yuck.
-
Very wet. >:(
-
Same across the UK I think even at Lords for the cricket 100s - fortunately the weather has brightened up there.
-
Warm and ☀️ :sweatdrop:
-
Wish it was warm here,actually very cold and windy, need to cut the grass, so hoping it warms up a bit, had some rain in the night
-
Overcast then the ☀️ came out. Lovely and warm. Slight breeze.
-
Loverly here too.
Warm and sunny all day. 🙂
-
Finally got some much-needed rain last evening, got rid of some of the humidity. Today is overcast and cooler but the heat will be back for the weekend.
-
I hate humidity, Pau was the 'wettest' place I've ever been: hot++ with sweat pouring off - stood on a very small balcony trying to catch a breeze, it was like penguins on a floe: moving round briefly to allow others to cool!
Here: overcast. Not cold. A doing day .........
-
:sunny: :sweatdrop: :yes:
-
After the thunderstorms last night, it's bright and sunny and seasonably warm.
-
Did the storms last 4 very long? I expect it will end thus in the UK. Already Plymouth in Devon have been flooded in places :-\. Seems 2 B following the pro-cyclists up the country :o
Warm. Clear skies. 2 hot 4 me to work outdoors!
-
After a few hot days the weather broke in the night with gentle rain, followed by heavy showers until now. Hopefully it won't be too humid 2day and hopefully, the rain will have penetrated the newly dug-over borders!
-
Poured all of yesterday
Dull start, then the :sunny: came out. Hot! inside now, all windows open 8)
-
Warm and sunny today, patio door open.Tonight the heating's on.
-
After days of calm, blue sky and sunshine: mid afternoon it began to drizzle which turned to heavy rain by 5.45 and now it's chucking it down. No sitting out to watch for 🦔 s tonight! I've thrown out food from the kitchen window instead. Trouble is, we have 🐀 s again >:(.
4cast 4 rain in the week. With sunny intervals.
-
BBC weather forecast said sun all day here. 1% precipitation. I thought I’d take advantage and do loads of washing. Put it all on the line outside. Then the heavens opened! We got all of the 1% rain! >:( Rushed out and brought it all in, getting soaked for my efforts. Now the sun is shining! The postman blamed me for the rain! ;DNow how do I get all this stuff dried? Not trusting the weather while I go out.
-
If it rains briefly I leave my laundry out. There won't be anything that I need in a hurry.
Last night it tipped down, mayB almost an inch overnight. Now it's blue sky and sunshine.
-
Bright sunshine with some clouds, temps are about 17 C right now.
-
Sunshine then heavy downpour ( caught in it whilst out running ;D) now sunshine again
-
Chucking it down >:( and we are due for a day out :-\
-
Wellies I’m thinking CLKD. 😏 have a good day anyway.
Wet, windy and chilly here.
-
Dry but dull and windy. Also need an extra layer today.
-
Chucked it down. Dull. Home earlier than planned ::).
-
Rain forecast for the next week :(
-
Back from a holiday down south in hot sunny weather, straight into autumn, wind and rain. Had to put the heating on !!
-
April showers ;D
-
Gorgeous sunshine, and 20 degrees. Beautiful Friday morning. Saturday will be warmer but in for more rain for Sunday.
-
Heavy rain arrived mid-afternoon yesterday, blustery and blue sky now :)
-
Overcast and grey with drizzle, not cold but still miserable.
-
Sorry that you are miserable ........ is it your weather that is causing it?
April showers. Not cold. Blue sky .
-
Sunny ☀️ all day. Lovely enough to sit out with a cuppa. Apparently the next 2 days are going 2 B warmer.
-
The last two days have reminded me of the Monty Python sketch where Mr. Anchovy no longer wants to be an accountant but rather a lion tamer. He describes his job as dull, dull, dull, my god it's dull... ;D
Gray skies abound, threatening to rain but it won't.
-
I never 'got' Monty Python 1st time around, my boyfriend at the time who I eventually married however. Did :-\
-
Dull, dull, dull, dull, dull >:( and warm :o
-
Beutiful .......... too warm to work outside ::)
-
Sunny, warm, around 15 degrees here. :sunny:
-
FabULUS!
-
Very dull this morning
-
FabULUS!
-
Wet.
-
Wet from 9.00 p.m. and a little drizzle earlier. Sun is trying ....... and it isn't cold. Air is still.
-
Overcast again today but mild for October, about 21C.
-
Lovely yesterday. Drizzling today :-\
-
The past two days have been quite chilly and breezy (welcome to Fall) and rainy, rather miserable. Had to bring out the fall sweaters and socks.
-
I have been feeling cold in the early hours so will strip our bed later and layer it with blankets. Sheepskin coats fetched out of the Winter wardrobe on Sat., though we didn't need them all day. Once the sun broke through it was warm.
This morning, dull thus far.
-
Downright chilly first thing this morning but it's going to be a nice sunny day, up to 20 C.
-
Apparently last night the temps were 'above normal' 4 this time of year ::) which was why I was warm and cosy: not due to the extra blankets then ;D
Warm 2day. Dull. Dull. Dull.
-
After heavy early rain yesterday the sunshine was warm all day.
This morning began OK, now it's dull, dull, dull >:(
-
Chilly
-
I hung laundry out - brought it in, there was a very black cloud which didn't fall on us, suprisgnly :o. Been out to feed the hogs and it's not cold.
-
Cloudy and nippy.
-
It would seem that heavy rain has caused Bassenthwaite Lake to cover the flood plain and enter the Derwent Lake near Keswick. A place we know well, we stayed in Keswick several times. Cockermouth - which was flooded badly 5 years ago, is hit again. Awful.
Here, it's April showers >:(
-
FIERCE. It's rained most of the night here in the Midlands. Now it's throwing itself, trying to get into the windows :o - slashing rain, blustery high winds ....... not a bird on the place :-\. No archery practice today then! Laundry may well be in the next town by 11.00 a.m., heading North!
-
Morning. 1st frost of the Winter 8)
-
Soft blue sky with skuddy white clouds and a very sharp frost 8)
-
Blue sky. Dry. A little warmer. Calm.
-
Blue sky here too, a bit breezy and 17 degrees!
-
It's going to be warmer until the end of the week across England. Hopefully my laundry will dry on the line .......
-
Blue sky. Autumnal. Not cold. Idea for walking or gardening 8)
-
Sunny but cold out of the sun
-
It was sunny and cold most of the day. The clouds came mid-afternoon and it rained around supper time.
-
Frost overnight 🥶🥶🥶
-
As 4cast - the World is white with frost. Blue sky. Slight breeze.
-
Dull. Dull. Dull. Drizzling. Not cold.
-
It was partly cloudy for most of the day but breezy, around 8 degrees. Rain on the way tomorrow.
-
Hail storms :o
-
It's cold and windy and yes, there is a dusting of snow from early this morning. Just a wee bit on the fallen leaves and the deck railing but that's it. We are supposed to get appreciable amounts on Sunday.
-
Out with the shovel in the Wellies then ?
Bright sunshine now ::)
-
They're forecasting up to 4cm, or 1.5 inches. That's not enough for a shovel or boots, thank goodness!
-
1.5 inches is slippery and enough to bring the UK to a halt ;D
Night is pulling in now. Dark by 4.30 p.m.
-
Sleet and wind overnight
-
Cold, wet and windy.
-
Blustery and very wet last evening.
Woke to a smattering of frozen snow on the cars and lawns.
Sky is now black and threatening.
We are supposed to drive out this morning :-\
-
Really cold and windy, almost got frostbite waiting in the queue outside the bakers ::)
-
Lovely in side though ? My feet. haven't warmed up yet even with fire glowing and rads on in the background. Think it will be an extra boost on the leccy blanket as well as perhaps a sheepskin rug over the top .......
-
Partly cloudy and chilly all day. Managed to get the last of the fallen leaves raked up and bagged before the snow comes tomorrow morning.
-
I can smell the bakery Two hoots ;-)
Blue sky. Laundry is frozen to the line :o. Ice on the top pond despite the bubblers. No wind.

Its a local bakers who make a cake at this time of the year with marzipan, its a sponge cake rectangle with marzipan around the outside, chocolate covering the bottom and jam and buttercream on the top :) I love them but they only make them in the few weeks before Christmas, which might be fortunate because I think the calories might be on the high side ;D
I’ve updated my avatar with a photo of it, its come out sideways tho :o
They also make fabulous custard slices (you might call them vanilla slices) once you pick it up your fingers sink into the icing and you cannot put it down, well thats my excuse ;D
-
:lol: you need an excuse :lol:
Blue sky. Very cold, water still frozen. Switched off the pond pumps.
-
Snow
-
:o. ? much ?
Sky is grey now. Looks like snow might fall which is 4cast :o
-
It's looking like Christmas today, it's been snowing since the overnight. We have just enough to cover the ground and had to brush the car this morning before going out for my walk. It looks really pretty!
-
From 3.30 until 6.00 it snowed gently :-X
-
Hard frost on top of snow ain't a good combination >:(
-
Cold and sunny 🌞
-
Cold this morning. The sidewalks were a little slick on my way to work. The snow is still on the ground but the roads are bare. Hopefully the sun will be out later and melt the icy patches.
-
More snow, many roads still closed since Saturday :(. I wonder if this is the year we get a 'proper' winter?
-
Where R the ewes sheila ?
Gentle thaw during the day. -4C last night. Haven't stepped out this evening as I think that hogs have gone into their winter boxes :-\
-
Grey and drizzle showers but warmer..
Rather have the cold.
-
Snowing lightly right now, still looks like a Christmas card outside. Not cold, just around 0 degrees.
-
Warmer. 11 in the car. Dull and drizzly.
-
Where R the ewes sheila ?
On top of the snow fortunately. A bit higher up from us they were digging them out.
Snow gone now, drizzle instead.
-
Will the ewes be moved down? I remember in 1963 sheep managed to find air pockets against hedgerows so survived. It's when the fleece gets wet that they struggle more.
-
I hope not. The ones in the worst place come in on Jan for lambing anyway.
-
Can U C the flock from the farm house? I've been watching Matt Baker on his parents' farm, rebuilding etc; it's been interesting. How over the years walls, buildings etc. get left because farming life is so busy ........ I love watching the lambs growing up when DH is fishing :-*.
Dark now.
-
Very windy but brighter. I feel a walk coming on.
-
You know how to live ;)
Blue sky followed by heavy rain. Laundry blowing. Hard. Not cold at all until the wind blows :o
-
Storms again 4cast for tomorrow!!! so batten down the hatches, get the candles handy and lots of blankets - in case.
-
Wind and rain just picking up now.
-
Here in the Midlands it's drizzling. Hard. I fetched the towels off the line and put through the spinner, they weren't any drier ::). Wind is rising. Birds flying backwards.
-
I’ve given up pegging washing out now. Will resume in the Spring
-
That'll be a huge pile to tackle when March arrives ;D
Criky it's turned dark :o :o :o :-\
-
Now the gusts of wind are not quite as bad I’ve finally hung the wreath on the front door, if I’d have done it at the start of the week it might have ended up hundreds of miles away, its been a very stormy week ;D
-
Calmer
Blue sky
White fluffy clouds
Not as cold
-
Got some more snow last night so everything is white again. Will be milder later which will melt some of the snow. Tomorrow will be 16 degrees but very very windy. Hope our snowman doesn't blow away lol
-
Bet the snow person looks lovely against the snow though ? It's beginning to get a bit OTT around here with all the decs., what I hate is when they flop in the day :D
Looked like snow for a while but I've left the laundry. Blowing on the line.
-
For is 4cast in many places, certainly it's getting more and more misty this afternoon :-\
Not cold though.
-
Oh great, frosty beginning (that was 9.30 for us ;D) now it's clouded over so no walk :(
However: fed the birds and DH is doing DIY around the house :-\
-
Thick fog. A brief moment of sunshine. Now raining - hard. >:(
-
It's overcast and on it's way to 5 C and rain for tonight and most of the day tomorrow. :o
-
Dull. Dull. Dull outside .
-
Still dark but it's quite foggy now and rain is on the way later.
-
Dull. Drizzling. >:(
-
Nasty weather in store for today, very windy with snow this morning and then the temps are to rise and bring freezing rain or freezing drizzle this afternoon. ::)
-
Are you in the warm with plenty of grub ? Our wood burner is glowing. Dull outside.
-
Same old. Same old. But Oh! So! Warm - 15 in the car :o no wonder the hedgehogs are out at night :-\
-
Another dull grey day today, it's not cold, just above 0 degrees. Not sure when we will see the sun, probably not until after New Years.
-
Did U get sunshine yet? Today began bright from a blue sky: 11 in the car. That's degrees, not people ;D. About 3.45 the rain tried to get into the lounge :o and gales are 4cast.
-
Cold morning, got another blast of snow overnight. Didn't get a lot but just enough to shovel and make everything look white again.
The sun came out a bit yesterday for a split second.
-
There's a saying in our house about the sunshine: "don't blink or you'll miss it!"
Wind is rising :-\
-
After a bright morning with a blue sky, it's chucking hail, sleet, rain onto the windows, TRYING TO GET IN ;D
Glad that I did some gardening earlier :D
-
Bright sunshine, a welcome sight for sure but it comes with frigid cold, -12C, with windchill feeling like -20 ::)
-
Hi! do U use sun-screen to protect the face from wind-chill etc.? I often forget but it would be advisable to put something on the skin against the elements.
-
I have a fleece neck warmer that can go over the face for the windchill. I used to run in this type of weather...crazy I know lol. When I worked in the running store we told customers that sunscreen does not protect the skin from windchill, you need to use a barrier like a scarf, neck warmer or even vaseline if you're out for a longer time.
-
'vaseline' would be my suggestion. A thick layer across the skin to stop the wind getting to it.
-
Cloudy again, but milder. We have been warned of strong winds coming later this afternoon into the evening. I won't have to worry about our lighted snowman being blown over again, it's safe in the garage drying out before we put it back in the box. ;D
-
Sharp frost
Blue sky
Sunshine
-
Very sharp frost until 10.30 when the sky clouded over, temperature is dropping fast. Dry. Cold.
-
Gusty winds died down overnight, now it's cold again and the sun is thinking about coming out.
-
Rain and coldish yuk :-\
-
Bright sun today but very cold, -12 this afternoon.
-
No rain. No snow. Cold. Dry.
-
Snow flurries, we never get snow :o even the beast from the east missed us ;D
-
OH! for some sunshine that lasts more than half a day ::).
At least we aren't stuck in Afghanistan with no shelter, warm clothing or regular food :'(
-
How about this for a cold morning... -17C, feels like -28! And no sunshine :P
-
:o ...... that's balmy ;D. Not.

:o ...... that's balmy ;D. Not.
Right? ;D Thank goodness it's short-lived, tomorrow's temp is forecasted for plus 2 degrees.
-
Weird. No longer do we get long winters and hot summers >:(
-
Clear sky. Sunshine 🌞 :o and sharp frost. Seasonal then.
-
Clear sky. Sunshine 🌞 :o and sharp frost. Seasonal then.
Same here it’s glorious ;D
-
Not going to hang out the large sheet though as there is probably 'no dry' ...... frost melting now that the 🌞 has moved round :-*
-
Sky is stunning - my friend sent a photo on her phone and we have similar, 40 miles apart. Going to be cold overnight 8)
-
Freezing fog as we drove across the county this morning, temp. dropped by 3.30 p.m. If the sunshine had come out the scenery would have been lovely.
-
When I got up this morning, it was -19C with a windchill of -32..yep the arctic has invaded. The weather people just canceled the extreme cold alert for around here, guess that means it's going to warm up eventually. I had to do the grocery shopping and it wasn't so bad. I dressed for it and the sun was out. Winter storm is forecasted for Monday, unsure of how much snow we'll get here.
-
I thought it was cold here this morning at -2. But -19 🥶🥶🥶
-
If it's a dry cold it isn't bad if 1 is able to wrap up appropriately. Wet, nasty cold with a wind chill is far worse.
-
Another frigid -15C morning but clear as a bell and sunny. It's a dry cold and no breeze so it's not too horrible.
-
We are getting a blizzard of a snowstorm right now through a vast part of the southern part of the province. It's expected that at least a foot and a half of snow is to fall by the time this storm is supposed to end later this evening. All schools have closed and police are urging people to stay off the roads.
-
I read that 'weather was due' across Canada :o
After a lovely warm day, this morning dawned freezing cold again, with a FabULUS moon up there :-*
Sun out now. Calm and chilly.

The storm is hitting the Eastern party of the country, not sure what's happening out west.
Saw the moon last night before the clouds rolled in....beautiful!
-
it is 5 degrees outside but the sun is amazing and the temperature in my lounge is 24c with no heat on whatsoever. The lounge is bathed in sunshine. My friend was just here for coffee and she took off her coat, then a big cardigan, then a light cardigan and sat here like a cat enjoying it. her house gets no sun whatsoever because of it’s position.
-
We have had a Wolf Moon across the UK. Apparently. Because of early morning noise, yesterday I was out of bed in time to see it lighting up the World at 7.00 a.m. :-*
Too cold for me to work outside so have tidied the kitchen. Blue sky. Very frosty. Birds busy and DH has jet washed the paths around the house - he'll need to do the walls next ;D
Frost is laying even where the sun is shining.
-
My town received 43 cms of snow yesterday, about 18 inches. :o We haven't had a snowfall like that in many years. The schools are closed again today because of the unplowed side side streets and continued clean up. The sun is out finally and it's a chilly -7.
-
18" would bring England to a halt! Well, 2"' would ::)
After a bright frosty start by 1.30 the sky had clouded up and it looks like it's trying to snow.
-

After a bright frosty start by 1.30 the sky had clouded up and it looks like it's trying to snow.
That pretty much happened. The highways were impassable from vehicles like transport trucks, busses and cars getting stuck. Dh got stuck trying to get out of the driveway to finish clearing the snow. We had 3ft drifts on both cars :o The clean-up continues today.
-
I remember in 1981 that we were walking over cars that were stuck between hedgerows ............ we weren't aware!
-
Glum. Quite bright and chilly until 20 mins. ago .
-
Feels like a spring day in the sun, a bit nippy in the shade :)
-
;D then the sun came out so I put washing on the line. Then ......... ::) right now it's blue sky and cool sunshine. Seasonal.
-
Snow in the Saraha :o - stunning :-*
-
Glorious sunshine :)
-
Very cold. Blue sky. Breezy. Mainly sunny.
-
Sunny and -18, with a -28 windchill. Not fun.

I like the Buffalo Bills NFL team, it looked freezing there last weekend, my other team are the Green Bay Packers another really cold city ;D
Cloudy here and felt colder today.
-
DH watches American Football ;D
Started frosty then clouded up. Dry. Cloud
-
Cold. Dull. Occasional sunshine.

I don't think you can get a much colder stadium than Lambeau field! ;D Buffalo is not far from me, but they are on the other side of the lake so they get a lot more snow than we do when the wind blows just right.
-
Dull. Dull. Chilly. Dull. Looks like it might snow :o but probably not cold enough ::)
-
Dull here too :-\
Poor Packers fans watching in the stadium last night, freezing cold and snowing …… and the team lost :'(
-
We got another dusting of snow last night and it continues to be very cold, but not bone-chilling like the last few days.
-
DH was going to watch but he was too tired. He loves his American Football ::)
A few drops of snow earlier :o
-

We love it but the season is over so quickly, if Buffalo Bills get to the superbowl I’d like to stay up and watch it but I struggle to keep my eyes open by 11 pm ;D
Good luck to the Bills for tonight :ola:
-
Dull today and cold and did not see the sun at all. Yesterday wall to wall sunshine.
-
I hope the snow storm in the US avoids you CC, nothing as dramatic here just cloud and a bit if drizzle.
-
We've had a bright windy day here. SE England.
Any one had the terrible storm??
Another on it's way, apparently.
-
Very windy.
-
Glorious. Wall to wall sunshine, blue skies and the wind has disappeared. 🌞🌞
-
Sunny, but very windy.
-
It was sunny and cold all weekend, which was a nice change from the frigid temps last week. The weather people are now warning of another storm coming Wednesday. Maybe another foot or so of new snow on top of what we already have. ::)
-
Sunny and above freezing for the first time in weeks- another calm before another storm. :o
-
Someone wrote to me many years ago letting me know that they had had 10 feet of snow overnight :o I still think that he meant 10 " but hey, he was a bloke ;D
The last few days have been bright blue sky with sunshine. 11 in our car today. Supposedly getting colder by the weekend. IT's been the driest January on record. Apparently.
-
After a few days of bright sunshine it's sleeting >:(
-
Glorious sunshine but a blustery cold wind.
-
By mid-morning the sun had broken through - blue sky, blustery chilly wind, sun warm on my back 8)
-
Another round of snow all done. Now it's back to the frigid cold. Minus 23 windchill on my way to work this morning. >:(
-
OHHHhhhh that's chilly ...... double layer of woollens: hat, gloves, ski pants ....
-
I have a 4 minute walk to work so it wasn't so bad. I layered up, definitely. ;D
-
How many clothing pegs do you require once you get to work ;D
-
I just put my scarf, hat and mitts in my coat sleeve and throw it all on the steps...not allowed to use coat hooks as to not touch someone else's coat.
-
If you had nits or fleas I could understand it ::)
-
I've had to come inside due to blustery wind, almost blown off my feet :o :o the wind has certainly got colder !
Dry. Clouds moving fast, birds flying backwards ;D
-
Poured with rain in the night. Wind++ trying to get into the house :o. Stuff blowing round the yard. Then the sun appeared ::)
-
Cold and windy but sunny. The windchill is still being a bugger this weekend. ::)
-
How's the snow level C.C.?
Yesterday was nasty: rain, cold, blustery winds. I didn't even go out to feed the birds :o
This morning dawned blue sky, bright sunshine. Now it's drizzling. Of course it is, we've hung a large sheet on the line ;D
Not as cold.
-
April showers all morning, now the rain has set in. Dashed out to fetch the almost-dry large sheet from the line!

We still have a decent amount and it slowly melts if the sun is out. It's still bitterly cold today so the snow isn't going anywhere fast. Windchill of -24 C on my way to work this morning but it's wall-to-wall sun.
-
Windchill can be awful, do U put sunscreen and lip protection on B4 venturing outside?
Bad weather is headed our way: Storm ? followed by Storm Eunice ..........
-

I'm not outside for very long but I use a daily moisturizer and lip balm regardless.
-
Heavy rain followed by a sudden blast of gale-force wind which threw open a window which had been left ajar. Fortunately nothing broken. Appears that the rain has set in, even the birds are having to 'make do' which means I've not chased the squirrel either ;D. Yet ;)
-
Really windy here during the night and pouring rain, its stopped raining now but the forecast for the rest if the week is horrible :-\
-
Wet here as well, but not windy. Not particularly cold.
-
Two large storms headed from the West into the UK by Wed night :-\. I think it has stopped raining a bit .
-
It's mostly sunny, with a bit of cloud right now. It's not as cold as it has been thankfully. It's a balmy -5, feels like -11. A warm front is headed here so tomorrow's forecast is a high of 8 degrees?? :o then heavy cold rain all day Thursday, then back to minus double digits on Friday. All that rain is going to freeze...great ::) ::) ::)
-
I think we are behind you C.C. ::). temps up and down like a yoyo!
-
Rain 1st thing, now drying up. Going to be very mild, about 14 degrees.
-
Our hedgehogs won't know if they are flying a bike or riding a kite ;D
Bright sunshine thus far, very blustery. And it's bin day :o ::)
-
Wet and quite windy, forecast for Friday is for 66 mph gusts here but its always worse than they forecast :-\
-
I think we are behind you C.C. ::). temps up and down like a yoyo!
;D Also like a roller coaster! The temperature is on its way up today with strong winds.
-
Very mild 14C, but wind is getting up now. Been dry all day though.
-
Wind and rain trying to get into the house :o it's howling. Due to become worse :-\. Torches to the ready!
-
Our weather warning has gone up to RED for Friday :-[
-
Get your torches ready with hot water in a Thermo ;-). I was awake a lot, listening to the wind howling around but surprisingly, there doesn't seem to be any damage done. Warm this morning. Calmer. Blue sky.
-
The warning is for the morning so if the power goes off we will have time to get the candles out. High winds always make me nervous, I live on top of a hill and get lots of sleepless nights when I can hear the gusts hitting the house, I always expect the roof to be torn off, we wouldn’t be the first around hear to lose it :'(
The train company has already cancelled all trains from Bristol, and lots of local businesses closed tomorrow including the covid vacation centre.
Ill be so happy on Saturday if we still have a roof and no injuries from flying debris :)
-
That area is scheduled a storm and a half !
Air becoming colder
Sun still shining from a blue sky, the wind is rising :-\
-
Take care and stay safe Two hoots!
We have a storm heading this way today as well. We've had heavy rain all night and into this morning. The wind is going to pick up and the temp is going to dip steadily and along with that... freezing rain and more snow. >:( There's another snowfall warning for tonight and overnight, expecting 10-25cm, depending. People are being asked not to go out if they don't have to, just to allow the salt trucks to brine the main roads to keep the freezing rain from accumulating. I'm worried about dd driving home from work later tonight, she's not a very confident driver in this kind of weather.
Just as the remnants of the last storm melt, we are getting walloped again. Hoping for a snow day tomorrow.
-
You in the USA, CC? My son is in Maine. Just been sent a video of the snow, though it has thawed a bit, but they are expecting more snow. My DIL built an amazing igloo in the garden that the kids played in . Not something we can do here!
Not looking forward to the storm. It sounds 10 times worse as we have trees close. Very tall trees that the owner refuses to manage. I’m glad the bedrooms are the other end of the bungalow. Plus the winds are from the west, so any fallen trees should fall away from us. We are up a hill, but as we live in a bungalow, we feel a bit more sheltered.
-
Could your Council not do an assessment, they do have a duty of care surely with regards trees maintenance?
Quiet thus far. Curtains closed. I may bring our council bins out of direct winds.

No, I'm in Canada, southern Ontario. We tend to get hit with the same weather that comes up the east coast.
-
You too CC.
Wind in the area according to BBC weather gusting at 91 mph tomorrow at 9 am then 60 mph for the rest if the day, but the good news is no snow forecast ;D
-
We now have a red warning between 10 and 3.
-
We had a warning across the East Midlands from 8.00 but so far, apart from blustery ........ blue sky. Drizzle. At the same time :o
-
Some big gusts, the Mumbles weather station has recorded a gust of 88mph so far this morning, its also raining with the storm now :o
Some parts of the area are without power but so far so good here :) Almost everything around has closed for the day, schools, shops so no need to go out, stay safe if Eunice is heading your way :)
-
It arrived about 10.30, wind began rising. It's blue sky but hammering hail against the windows. I'm going to buy Swiss-style shutters ready for next time! Items blowing around, I was in the yard earlier and some pots were chasing me back into the house :o I didn't wait to see which ones ::)
Not particularly cold. Snow in some places though, Paisley and Stirling in particular.
-
Beautiful sunshine and very windy but not the scary gusts of this morning :)
The millennium dome looks a bit battered :o
-
A spire has left a Church in Bath or Wells :o - can't remember but there's a video on line
We had 2 short power outages, both whilst I was watching the skating from China: fortunately in between each competitor.
-
Very windy, havnt had much rain.
-
Snow day!! :banana: The snow ended early this morning so we've been out shoveling. Not as much as the last storm so that's good. The schools are closed, partly because of the storm and also Monday is a holiday so they figured to give the kids an extra day off. ;)
Bright sunshine now, it's cold but gorgeous. Might go for a walk later when the roads have been cleared.
-
Very Windy but have seen worse. I think we may have just caught the tail end of it.
-
Three trees down on my drive, one hit the car. Can’t get out of the drive, will need to chainsaw the trunk first.
Two drain pipes came off brackets and were swaying in the gusts, had to remove them as don’t fancy getting up ladders to reattach them today.
Fingers crossed that the huge beech trees don’t fall as last time one damaged the roof.
We’ve cut creepers off boundaries in big patches hoping to let the wind through opposed to ripping chain fencing out.
Ponds full of leaves, branches etc so a big clear out now due.
The forests are creaking, seen a few trees go over. Not seen anything like this since 2007/8.
No rain though!
-
I've heard worse apart from the sudden gusts that drove across the road ...... at least the sun keeps shining, it would be pretty grim other wise.
-
Any one have damage or snow?
It's icy cold this morning. Dull. Wind has passed ;)
-
Some trees down locally but the wind has picked up again, 60mph gusts today :( when it finally calms down we will have a good look at the roof, we cleared almost every pot in the garden into the sheltered area on Thursday so they should be ok.
-
We have lost one ridge tile and two are hanging.
Done an online claim form but will probably take ages.
-
We have no electricity and for most of yesterday no water. As this is a rural area we are usually at the bottom of the pile for supplies to be restored. I’m so grateful the water was restored particularly this morning when the need to flush the loo several times was necessary! It would have been rather unpleasant otherwise! Just a mile away they have electricity. We were prepared for loss of power and have a calor gas heater bought following the hurricane in 1987. It’s been a life saver several times when we’re been without power. We weren’t prepared for no water though. Very wet outside and windy again. It helped yesterday by being sunny despite high winds.
-
I'm so sorry to hear about what you ladies are dealing with. It sounds like a horrible situation. Hope all turns out well for everyone. :'(
We received even more snow overnight, another 5cms or so, which meant more shoveling this morning. The winds are big deal here too. They're gusting to 80km/h and blowing around all that new snow. Visibility is an issue when the wind kicks up. The good thing is the sun is out but with the winds and frigid wind chill, the snow isn't melting.
-
Whereabouts are you C C? My son lives in Maine, so we get about weather there. He offered the use of his generator, as they have frequent power cuts. Slight logistical obstacles there!
Loads of branches over the garden, but trees still standing. House intact, just cold. Going to transfer some frozen food to my daughters spare freezer tonight, who lives 10 miles away and escaped power cuts, so we don’t have to discard food.
Latest update for restoring power is 11.00pm Monday 21st. As long as we have water…….!
-
Another windy one today. Only yellow though.
-
Haven't looked out to see about the weather, was watching a male blackbird having a Very Good Bath earlier :-*
-
Windy Windy Windy😊 Fence down , slate of roof off, neighbours tree down and garage roof off. Still luckier than some. Looking forward to spring and calmer days.
-
Third named storm this week :-\ its like groundhog day here except today its raining as well as windy.
-
Hang on Two Hoots.
-
Hang on Two Hoots.
Literally if I went outside ;D
-
:ola: The power came on at 7 am, whilst I was on the loo contemplating how to get through another cold day!
-
That's such a relief!
The wind is gusting again, supposedly another storm on it's way >:(. I've had problems getting warm even with the power on :'(
-
Another blustery day today with cold temps. Wind gusts 80-90km/h expected. No risk of blowing snow like yesterday, all of it has frozen again.
-
Slippery under foot then C.C.?
-
The main streets are fine, they've been plowed and salted. The sides streets like ours are still snow covered but sanded for traction. I haven't navigated the sidewalks yet but I imagine they will have been plowed and sanded. They don't plow right down to the cement, they leave a thin layer of compacted snow which can be slippy.
-
The rain is trying to get inside the house :o as well as the wind making the fire draw really fast . Fortunately we bought lots of logs inside during yesterday's lull.
-
Only winds up to 50 miles an hour! Well compared to Friday…..! ::)
-
Still blustery but this wind doesn't have a name ::)
-
Still blustering >:(
-
We had mild temps and all-day rain yesterday but today it's below freezing with a stiff wind and on and off snow squalls coming off the lake. Tomorrow night another snowstorm is rolling in and we'll get dumped on...again.
This is getting ridiculous. We haven't had multiple storms like this for ages.
-
You got snow storms and we got three gales in a week ??? still a bit blustery but nothing compared to last week. Lots of flooding now after the storms it must be awful, I feel sorry for the homeowners :-\
-
There was flooding in some low-lying areas due to the rain and the melt-off, but all of that water has turned to ice.
-
C.C. how large is the lake!
Blue sky and sunshine from mid-afternoon - light drizzle occasionally.
I think that in England people's properties are getting flooded due to new builds and factories 'up river' >:(. So it forces water until it finds it's level, including rushing through houses. I was reading that 1 couple have redesigned theirs in an upside down fashion so that all white goods and living is upstairs.

The lake (one of the Great Lakes) is 8.25 times larger than England...according to the Google lol
-
So we could drop the UK into the Lake and not notice the splash ;D
-
Oh that would be something...hiding England in a lake, and it's not the biggest lake either! ;D
-
In the night the rain tried to get into the house and the wind is howling at times :-\
Blue sky and bright.
-
Bright and sunny but very cold this morning, now midday it's clouded over and a few flakes are floating about. The more serious snow is coming later tonight.
-
Battern down, fire lit? Hot chocolate with marshmallows to hand? Right, I'm on my way ;-).
-

It's not supposed to be as bad as the storm a month ago but the hot chocolate and marshmallows sound about right, with a splash of Baileys ok with you? ;)
-
Lovely sunny day.
-
Enjoy the Baileys, I don't drink ;D
Blue sky
Blustery
Sunny - thus far
-
What a difference to last Friday, feels like spring is on its way, blue sky and lovely in the sun :)
-
We've sat in the sun with a cuppa :-*
It is warm enough for me, a pottering heat. Much hotter and I am driven inside .
-
It was a wintery mess this morning but now the clouds have moved off and the sun is out, melting the snow off the cars. The winds have died down thankfully.
-
Rain, rain and more rain. I’m from Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. We had on Friday in 20 hours over 200mm of rain. It’s still going at least another 100 mills on Saturday and it’s only 5.30pm.
They recon the rain will ease of on Monday then come back again. It’s been a very wet summer and it will apparently go up to July.
This is like the rain we have had in the 1974 floods and the 2019 floods. Lots and lots of roads under.
My daughter was driving along the Brisbane riverside motorway. And she said the river was very high and you could already see things floating along the river. For anybody who’s been to Brisbane, South Bank went under in the 2019 floods.
I’m fine I live on a bit of a hill, my neighbour rain runs into my yard and down the side of my house, but can only get so high then it runs on to my over neighbour houses.
Oh, at least I don’t have to water the garden.
It’s all or nothing in Australia, we get cyclones and floods or no rain, each gives us bad bush fires.
-
Good frost when I looked out at 6.30 am but now it is wall to wall sunshine and a beautiful blue sky.
-
Rain in Australia, snow in Canada and gales and floods in the UK :o I think we will be glad when February is over :)
Sunny morning, lots of rugby on tv today so not going any further than putting washing on the line ;D
-
Will that be the rugby strip after the match?
Blue sky
Chilly wind
Scudding clouwds
-
Bright sunshine but cold and frosty this morning. Later on, it's supposed to "warm up" to just below freezing.
-
Still raining, lots of flooding. whole towns have gone under. In South East Queensland a minimum of 600mm to over 1000mm and still raining. So many floods warnings and six people dead so far.
-
same as yesterday.lovely sunshine and blue skies. Expected to be in double figures by lunchtime. Currently 22 in my lounge with no heat on, just bathed in sunshine.
-

Thats a lot of rain :-\ is the forecast for it to stop soon, are there rivers nearby that are flooding or is it just the volume of the rain ?
-
That's sad. I remember in The Thorn Birds, flooding :'(
Bright blue sky with sunshine though chilly in the shade. Nights are pulling out :-*
-
On and off sunny breaks but quite breezy from the north west. It's going to get "stupid cold" again tomorrow. ::)
-
Brisbane river is flooding and had high tide this morning that didn’t help. Brisbane main dam is at 174%, and they are trying to slowly release the water in the dam, so that doesn’t help. And I don’t understand how it can be over 100% but that’s the figures they give.
Lots of shops and school are closed because people can’t get to work because of roads being flooded.
We have had a year worth of rain in three days. Today the sun trying to come out, tomorrow is fine, then the rain comes back in.
Pennyfarthing funny how you say it’s warm in your home at 22 degrees. I would be rugged up and wearing slippers. We had a very mild summer with a top of 33 degrees, but it’s been a humid summer too. It’s the humidity that gets to you
-
33 degrees :sweatdrop:
The floods have made the news here now, although Ukraine is obviously the main story :'(
Wet but not windy for the last day of February, its spring tomorrow :)
-
My late friend lived in Brisbane, she complained that she was cold at 20 - I would tell her that we would love to feel 20 for a few days ;D, however the humidity there is draining.
Here it's grey skies, light drizzle and 12 in the car.
-
More sunshine this morning but very cold going to work. There are still patches of hard ice on the roads and school playgrounds. It's been too cold for the sun to melt any of it.
-
Drizzling. Again.
-
Dreary.
-
Dull. Dull. Dull.
-
I'm fed up with the drizzle :'(. I need some warmth 8)
-
I cannot wait for Spring. I want to sit outside in the warmth. I even want to cut the grass.
-
Not too cold today, sun was out but it's cloudy again. :( Sunday is forecasted to be 13 degrees, then it'll get cold again.
C'mon spring!
-
Criky. That's positively balmy ;D
It was 7 in our car this morning
Bright sunshine earlier, dull now >:(
-
Rain stopped late afternoon and I think the weather forecast is dry and even sunny for a few days :)
-
Sunny again but still cold-ish. Still waiting for Sunday as the temps are supposed to get to 16 degrees :o. There's the potential for flooding with the high winds, rain, and melting.
-
☀️☀️☀️
-
Glorious spring day, washing on line and all the windows open :cancan:
-
The morning sun is gone now, it's clouded over and the winds are starting to pick up a bit. Temps are around 1 degree.
-
:sunny: 4 a change. Cold still.
-
We had a very windy Sunday (gusts to 100 km/h) but very mild. Today is miserable, cold and rainy with a chance of freezing rain and snow later as the temp drop.
-
Sounds Wintery >:(. I don't mind dry cold but wet, windy and cold - I prefer to stay inside ;D
-
Blue sky and fluffy white clouds but a blustery cold wind, it looks lovely but once you step outside :o
-
Lots of sunshine but chilly winds. Some snow is still lingering. On my way to work this morning, I heard robins and cardinals singing...sounds like spring is coming!
-
Sharp frost first thing followed by blue sky and :sunny:. Clouding up now and I haven't the energy to fetch the laundry in which will be dry :-\
-
Thick cloud rain forecast, still a strong cold easterly wind :-\
-
Who knew how many 'photos of rainbows there are out there ;D. It was a question on 'tipping point' so I looked it up ....... as you do ::)
-
Warm :-*
-
Overcast and 2 degrees. The sun will pop out now and then.
-
Wet :(
-
Warm and sunny :-* now clouding up Big Time >:(
-
Overcast and lightly snowing, just enough to make things look white again. Another shot of snow later tonight, and cold temps. Winter isn't done with us yet. :-\
-
Don't pack your warm clothes away then C.C. ;)
Drizzling. Again . >:(

I thought I was going to at least put some winter stuff away, but I will hold off. April can be iffy too when it comes to the weather.
-
Warm.
Sunny.
Slightly blustery.
-
We've been having snow on and off all day. It started out sunny, blink and then it looks like a blizzard. Blink again and bright sunshine. The prevailing wind is coming off a large body of water way up north so we are getting snow streamers off that lake. Winds are cold too.
-
Forget spring its like a beautiful summers day, its glorious :sunny:
-
Sun is up but still a bit cloudy and around -4. This week is forecasted to be above 0 degrees everyday, hopefully the snow and ice will melt off, finally.
-
Lovely thus far with :sunny:
-
warm and sunny but rain 4cast 4 tomorrow >:(
-
Aaaaannnnd....it's snowing again ::). At least it isn't cold. However, it's going to get mild tomorrow so this stuff should be gone.
-
So everything will be slushy ?
-
Foggy
-
Dull followed by thin drizzle: the sort that goes through even the best waterproofs >:(
-
Very foggy this morning, a warm front is coming and with the little bit of snow around it looks pretty eerie.
-
I love mornings when the fog sits above the river ........ especially when the sun breaks through :-*
-
It was foggy yesterday, and this morning but it's finally lifting and will get mild later on.
-
Yesterday: it was vertical rain >:(. Dull. Dull. Dull.
Today a complete turn around with :sunny:
-
;D. too warm, have had to move into the shade :o
-
Dull and rainy this morning, still overcast and cool.
-
What kind of rain, apart from it being wet. It was vertical on Wednesday :-\
-
:o. colder than yesterday. :o :o >:(
-
What kind of rain, apart from it being wet. It was vertical on Wednesday :-\
It was pretty steady, and a pain to drive in on the highway. Visibility wasn't all that great due to the spray from other cars. It's on and off all weekend.
Still overcast this morning for the first day of Spring :tulips:
-
Beautiful sunny weekend but strong winds keeping the temperature down :-\
-
Partly cloudy and coolish but quiet winds. Tonight another weather system is going hit us with a bit of snow then freezing rain, then rain. It's going to be very treacherous driving conditions for the morning commute.
-
You're still getting weather then C.C.
Sunny here
-
Still light. The air is completely calm. 4cast is good until Sat. 8)
-
Beautiful day but still breezy :)
-
Lovely this morning, wall to wall sunshine. 😎

-
You're still getting weather then C.C.
Sunny here
Yup, this time of year the weather is pretty unpredictable. :-\
It's overcast now, it rained and ice pellets this morning on the way to work. Heavy rain is slated for later this afternoon into tonight.
-
Glorious sunshine and without the chilly wind we’ve been getting its a lovely temperature :)
-
Temp has dropped suddenly. We've sat or pottered outside most of the day 8)
Indoors now.
-
Miserable with light drizzle and a cold wind. :P
-
Wind has a sharp bite. Sun is too warm ::)
-
:o :o snow 4cast for Thursday :o :o
-
Sunny and nary a cloud but still cold. Freezing rain is forecast for tomorrow morning and afternoon, rain. Oh the joy of Mother Nature in spring. :o
-
Cold :(
-
Yep 7 in our car. Chilly - another jumper put on :o
Dull. Dry.
-
Had a heavy downpour yesterday and just a light shower today, quite cloudy and cooler than last weekend.
-
?? snow anyone ??
-
No snow today but we did get ice pellets this morning ::). Rain tomorrow and then yes, snow on Friday.
-
We call those hail C.C. and they can sting. Hard!
Blue sky. Grey cloud. Snow flakes ::) - now do I hang the towels out or not ............ answers on a postcard ?
-
5 mins ago we were considering taking lunch on2 the patio in the sunshine: it's now snowing :o HARD ;D
-
Sleet, hailstones and now sunshine. Very bitter 🥶
-
Certainly the sky has been various shades of black: blue sky now, 20 mins ago heavy snow flakes fell.
-
Blizzards on and off all day.
Absolutely freezing here. Feels like -3 according to my phone. :o
-
Spring for 5 minutes, winter for 10 minutes, then spring again and so on… 😂
-
April Showers then ;D
-
Rained in the morning, then sunshine, and now wicked wind gusts bringing in a cold front and a wee bit of snow for tomorrow.
-
Very light snow flurries with gusty winds, not as bad as yesterday. It's overcast and barely above 0 degrees...maybe.
-
Blue sky
Snowy showers from black sky
Cold wind from the North :o
-
Sunny and blue sky, little wind and 4 degrees. The nicest and calmest day we've had for a couple of weeks.
-
We crossed the channel to France yesterday and into snow showers ;D but it a sunny 9 degrees today :)
-
They drives on the wrong side of the road they does ;D
Frosty - again. Blue sky.
-
Bonjour from sunny Dinan :)
Yes they drive on the wrong side of the road and you should see what they eat, escargot :sick02:
The patisserie on the other hand :love:
-
:rofl: escargot taste of garlic. Apparently. Rum babas however ......... :-*
It's clouding up with flecks of snow >:(
-
Early this morning we got some snow showers but it melted on contact. The wind is chilly and the sun refuses to show up, kind of a dull Sunday.
-
I find dull Sundays maudlin ........
It couldn't make up it's mind today :-\
-
☔️☔️☔️
-
Same here and it looks like it might be icy >:(. Bedroom blizt this morning then :o
-
Cloudy all day today but dry :)
-
Mostly cloudy, and coolish...meh.
-
It turned out 2B milder than I thought it might be 8)
-
12 in the car ;D
-
Finally sunny and 7 degrees, decent day.
-
Overcast and breezy, not as warm as it should be.
-
Very windy, rainy. Feels cold too. ☹️
-
Last day in France and we have sunny intervals and 12 degrees :)
-
Enjoy Two hoots!
Sunny on and off, also about 12 degrees but threatening to rain later.
-
That was a quick trip - you may take longer to get home !
Colder. Blustery. Heavy showers of rain/sleet/rain ....... occasionally blue sky :-\
-
A nip in the air from a blue sky. Sat on the patio with a thick coat, decided to come indoors rather than wrapping up in a blanket ;D
-
Rainy earlier this morning but the sun has come out amongst the clouds and it's still chilly.
-
That was a quick trip - you may take longer to get home !
Colder. Blustery. Heavy showers of rain/sleet/rain ....... occasionally blue sky :-\
Two night in Portsmouth and 7 in France :) home now to sunny Wales ;D
-
Is though: sunny ???
Cold
Blue sky
Dry thus far
-
Very sunny, should I have got some washing out ::)
-
Light frost earlier. Blue sky. Chilly wind :o. :sunny:
-
Still a cold wind here but it dried most of my holiday washing ;D while I watched a recording of the Grand Prix ;D
-
That was like paint drying then ;D, you might have watched your laundry blowin' in the wind ;)
-
It wasn’t the most exciting race, I should have watched the Amstel Gold instead ;D
Windy again but dry, looks like rain showers might be here soon.
-
Warmer in the shelter of the house, wind still chilly. Laundry drying well 8)
-
Overcast this morning, might rain later this afternoon into the evening. Not too cold, around 5 degrees right now.
-
Gorgeous wall-to-wall sunshine today and mild temps. Tomorrow the high is forecast for 22 degrees :banana:
Too soon to haul out the shorts though ;D
-
From 5 to 22 degrees thats an amazing jump CC :cancan:
Dull morning, sunny lunch time and wet evening or it was 5 minutes ago, might have changed again ;D
-
From 5 to 22 degrees thats an amazing jump CC :cancan:
Dull morning, sunny lunch time and wet evening or it was 5 minutes ago, might have changed again ;D
Well it went up to 16 degrees today, so it wasn't much of a jump ;D
-
Ahhhh perfect high teens to low twenties is my perfect temperature CC :sunny:
Was a bit drizzly but nice and bright now :)
-
the icy wind has dropped
sunshine keeps trying as does the drizzle ::)
now it's chucking down with rain from a very black sky >:(
-
Not quite as warm this morning, hope it gets to at least 20 this afternoon. Although there will be a risk of thunderstorms as a cold front blows through.
-
A very eerie Sherlock Holmes type fog has drifted down, I’ll be listening for The Hound of the Baskervilles later ;D
-
Haven't stepped out, it looks misty here. Off to sort laundry and decide later if it's worth hanging out to blow on the line 8)
-
Drizzly and very windy this morning. A cold front is coming through now so say goodbye to the mid-May temperatures. :(
-
A very eerie Sherlock Holmes type fog has drifted down, I’ll be listening for The Hound of the Baskervilles later ;D
Love it! ;D
Another sunny to overcast to sunny again kind of day so far. It's windy and gusty with another cold front coming later today with rain and heavy winds.
-
Cloudy but mild, not happy watching the national forecast saying how warm and sunny its been in the east :sigh:
-
FabULus - there's going to be some very sore skin :o after this weekend ::)
-
Sooooo...we have snow. >:( It's not unusual to get a bit during the first couple of weeks in April but last night we got a decent amount. I felt like I needed to pull out the Christmas decorations again. :o Luckily we didn't have to shovel as most of it started melting eventually. This morning it's warmed up to a balmy 3 degrees. I imagine by the end of the day it will be all gone. For good, I hope.
-
Yesterday I sat in the sun outside Highclere castle (Downton Abbey house) after our visit, it was glorious, today walked around Hungerford quite chilly, nice couple of days away :)
-
It's possible to get snow as late as June in parts of the UK ;-)
Two hoots - we were in Hungerford 6 weeks ago on a sunny Saturday.
Chilly in the wind, sun is gaining strength :-)
-
Freezing ...... not quite, :-\ but that wind is oh! so! cold !
Not much better yesterday. Probably due to there being a Bank Holiday weekend on the horizon?
-
Absolutely gorgeous today. Nothing but blue skies, little breeze and 16 degrees.
-
No sun today. Chilly
-
No snow then C.C.?
Here it's been dull, dull, dull, chilly, dull - a light rain overnight. Wood burner lit :-\
-
After weeks with very little moisture, it's pouring. Hopefully the holding barrels will be refilled, at least the plants will benefit. However, it means that I have to do housework :-(((.
-
Yesterday the heavens opened >:( OK for the plants, however, not when we were fishing :-X. Grumpy didn't cover how I felt, DH had a wonderful time ;D
Today: bright and sunny :D
-
It was absolutely gorgeous again today. Bright sun and 24 degrees, and just a whisper of a breeze. I had to slather on the sun block all this week.
-
I've got bottles of sun screen in both bathrooms (there's posh ;D) as well as both vehicles ? Posher ;D
Today it has drizzled. Probably 4 the best because I am really tired ..........
-
Hopefully the rain will keep away fro the various end of Jubilee Celebration parties/parades today.
Here, it's drizzling. >:(
-
Gorgeous here in lanzarote.
Thank god there's a breeze.
-
:na: :lol: not enjoyable a bit then?
Dull. Dull. Dull.
-
It was sunny most of the day but clouding over later, maybe rain overnight. Temps were perfect, 24 degrees and no humidity.
-
Overcast this morning with a chance of rain, same for the afternoon...ho hum...
-
:sunny: :sweatdrop:
driven indoors until 8.00 p.m. .......... ::)
-
I am thinking of making ice cubes. For 3 months I've been drinking cordials, diluted with fizzy water. Now is the time to make 'long' drinks, adding fruits, ice cubes and ........
Other than in a tray, does any1 have a suggestion as to how to make cubes quickly?
PS - it's too warm to move :sunny: :sweatdrop:
-
For speed CLKD, £1 a bag in the supermarket
-
NOOOOO - where has that water been sourced from: how much mileage and how heavy is it all to be carted from who knows where :-\
-

The best thing to do CLKD, is make the cubes in a couple of trays, tip them into a plastic box in the freezer, then start freezing the next lot of cubes. That way you will always have a stash of cubes. Simples? :)
JP x
-
NOOOOO - where has that water been sourced from: how much mileage and how heavy is it all to be carted from who knows where :-\
No we don’t buy them either but you said you wanted them quickly. :-\
-
Hottest day of the year yesterday…apparently. Not so in County Durham. Was looking forward to Sunning in the garden- but no chance! Feeling deprived. 😂
-
We don't have any cube trays: DH has put some water in an ice cream tub - will see how that works out. Meant to look in the local shop earlier but forgot ::).
Sky is grey
Dull
Cooler
Drizzling
Sorry Splendid - U really didn't miss much ;-)
-
Wet!
Been raining most of the day here. 😏
At least it’s cooler. :great:
-
Did any of you see the unusual sunset on Sunday evening :-\ partly due to Sahara Dust 8)
-
So, so warm ::)
-
After a warm blustery weekend, it's drizzling from a blue sky and cooler ::)
-
Exactly right for me. Cooling breeze, shade if I want in our garden; bright sunshine showing off our roses perfectly :-*
-
Weather expected to be very hot from today :sunny: :sweatdrop: so keep hydrated, walk dogs at dusk, keep an eye on neighbours etc.. I will be out at dusk making sure that the hogs have water, blackbirds have already had a bath in fresh water :-*
-
It amazes me WHY people walk their dogs at the hottest parts of the day! 🤨 🤷🏼♀️
Very warm here, 24 on my phone. Getting hotter girls 🥵
-
30c in my garden.
I was in Cromer this morning and there is usually a breeze even on a hot day. today there was none and it was very hot indeed.
-
30 here too. My dog stands on the pool cover and expects to cool down as the water gradually rises, only today the water is a lot warmer, he looks very confused by this!
-
I agree jillydoll, on the way home from work I saw lots of folk walking their dog. It’s 28 degrees here. My pup is laying on the tiled floor to keep cool. Keep cool everyone.
-
75F in our lounge which faces West :-\
-
Aww Tora, I love to see dogs in pools. ;D
Just wish I had one. ;D
-
A pool would be great ........ on the patio it's cool. Feeding the birds having topped up the water pots. Hotter tomorrow :o
-
Lovely day here, not a lot of breeze tho. :-\
-
Breeze is intermittent here ........ under the huge walnut tree in the shade was 'right'. Then I began clearing the pond, in full :sunny:, of blanket weed ::)
-
Too hot to sit outside this afternoon having walked around most of the morning.
So I opened patio doors wide on to garden and flopped inside in the cool.
This evening is lovely too and have been in summerhouse with doors wide open and the evening sun pouring in.
-
One of the hottest days expected and there is going to be a dog and pony show in the next field >:(
-
All that smelly 💩 :sick02:
-
;D. the jackdaws will clear up any flies this evening :-X
-
Cloudy with showers. Very warm, 24 degrees.
-
Partly sunny and a bit muggy and breezy-24 degrees but feels like 30-ish. We had a flash rain storm last night but the grass is still looking parched. We need a day or two of steady rain to green things up.
-
We don't have grass ;-).
I have lost a small wiegellia shrub in the newly planted border which I forgot to water :'(
Still warm and threatening into the mid-30s from Sunday! :o
-
Partly cloudy with a nice breeze and about 25 degrees. Hot and humid weather is coming for the weekend and into next week, humidex into the 30's.
-
I HATE humidity. When we stayed in Pau we were all grabbing time on a very small balcony to get breeze, as the water was running literally down my legs and although I didn't look, probably down others :-\
Cooler. Respite B4 the next burst of heat!
-
Too hot.
We’re all going to suffer in the next couple days, even if we like the warmth, predicting 40 degrees. 🙀😩
-
We don't need to suffer! Keep windows shut and curtains closed until evening. Have ice blocks/peas in the freezer to put round your neck/feet. Drink plenty of cooling drinks as well as tea/coffee as hot drinks cause sweating which cools the body.
Eat little and often to keep energy levels even. Look at the housework but on no account tackle any ;) <goes away whistling> (my smilie won't work >:( )
We are lucky to have shade in the garden as required as well as in the house. Will this all end in one huge thunder storm? People are being told to go to the coast: yeah! Right! sitting in a queue with all those others ........... ::)
Breeze gently wafting through the house as I have windows open ;) ......... doors open. If the breeze becomes warm, everything will be shut down. I will probably sleep; I did yesterday, 3k to go on le Tour >:(
-
Hot hot hot 🥵……..
The Cockapoo is enjoying his paddling pool today ;D
-
;D. my cocker would never have gone in a pool, she would go up to her ankles then whinge ::)
75F in our lounge. Windows/curtains closed. Blower on. Liquids to hand.
-
33 on my phone. 🥵
-
Put that into the freezer B4 it overheats? :D
-
I've been reading about the heat wave over there :'(. I can't imagine not having AC. It's going to get hot and muggy here too in the next few days, but I don't think as near as bad as over there.
Today it's raining off and all day and about 23 degrees.
Stay cool and safe everyone
-
Humidity is difficult to live with. We have the windows and curtains shut tight and blower on in the lounge which is 81F. I stepped out to the utility room to check laundry and it's like walking by an open kiln!
-
36 here now.
Roll on Wednesday.
-
Warmer outside than in!
-
The forecast totally underestimated the temperatures today, at 3pm in my daughters garden it showed 49° on the outside thermometer. It was 41° in my car at 11.30am, i was going to get a new brake light and change my mind when it was like opening an oven door. Its strange how the hottest time of the day used to be around midday to 2pm now it starts to get hottest around 3pm to 7pm.
-
Was the temp in your daughter's garden in the shade? Our garden was 36 in the shade (Hampshire) at 3.00.
Beautiful in the garden now sitting waiting for the international space station to go over. A really dry heat today too not our usual heavy, humid heat.
Taz x
-
I walked dogs at 4.30am and it was 18 degrees, by 5.45 am it was 22! I went to work at 6am and the office temp was 27. I closed work until Wednesday as it would have been horrendous later on and a worry for colleagues travelling.
My car registered 41 degrees to around 10.30am.
-
Did U see it Taz., we did. As well as our hedgehogs who brought along 2 of this year's litter :-*. I could have sat out all night it was so still but the seat was hard :D. Warm again!
-
Only one more day to go 🥵
-
For a while ::). Think of those on mainland Europe ........... :'( months of it. Plus being stuck in a train with field fires all around :o
Space Station due over us at 10.18 p.m.
-
Annual Swan Census going ahead ....... shouldn't this be postponed until the weather is cooler :bang: :bang: :bang:
-
If U want a picture to take your mind off the heat, have a lookC at the Scotland BBC article regarding breast feeding. Even I can giggle with the baby 8)
-
Loved it. You can almost see a WTF message there ;D
Putting ice in front of the blower :-\ :-\ ::) ???
-
Getting very windy here on the south coast and a lot cooler, hopeful we'll get back to some sort of normality now.
-
Cricket continued in various Counties.
Clouding up but no sign of cooling temps..
-
Was windy and a lot cooler about an hour ago, now gone very humid again and still. Can hear thunder in the distance and black clouds coming over, think this is the calm before the storm, hopefully. Got some wonderful pictiures of the cloud formations, mixed with blue sky and then the line of datrk clouds.
-
There's been some spectacular cloud formations in the last 3 weeks 8) :-*
-
Clouding over here too, but the air remains very still. Getting a through-draft indoors would be nice, but no such luck.
JP x
-
Still roaring sun, 36 and no air but I see clouds coming. 🎉
-
Hot, hot,hot..34 degrees with a 41 humidex. There have been storm clouds in the distance all day. It's raining somewhere ::)
-
Yep C.C. - raining somewhere in the UK - mayB!
I think that the air is less like being blown from a desert. At least I can get on with chores ......... Sky is dull.
-
up to 24C in our car earlier and warmer weather 4cast
dry - 20 miles away terrific rain storms which missed my holding barrels >:(
-
Been raining all morning here, everything cooler now.
-
Someone despite all the warnings, has lit a BBQ >:( :-X disgusting - at least I'll know who to sue if there is a fire caused!
Fires caused on Tuesday in Derbyshire by a gas small 1-ringed cooker thingy which was left >:(
-
We've had showers here today. Thank goodness. It has been sooo humid 🥵 - should get a good 😴 tonight..
-
Throwing it down here, there’s a river running down the Street.
18 degrees now. 👍
-
There'll be ducks, swans, kids in wellies ;D
-
I'm wet from top of head down to my waist :'(. Going to be 30 again today .........
-
The way to make it rain here will be to hang out a freshly laundered sheet ! :-\. Sky has been grumpy for days, air remains warm, wind is blustery. My holding barrels are empty >:(
-
The heat finally broke here too. Last night we had a bit of a t-storm and heavy rain go through (pup slept through it) and so this morning the lawn and garden have been watered and we can finally open the windows. It's a lovely 19, no humidity degrees.
-
20 suits me especially if there's no humidity. Retrievers are gun dogs ;-).
I put some towels on the line and it began to drizzle - however, that's now stopped without touching the ground >:(. All around the village the sky is black ! ;D
-
Rain :o :o I tried hanging laundry but that didn't work. DH did some important cement work this afternoon ::) now it's heavy drizzle.
-
Overcast, the air is heavy and muggy. It rained a bit overnight but not enough to satisfy the lawn and garden.
-
Similar here. Muggy, making me really tired :-\ ::)
-
Gorgeous sunny 23 degrees, not a lick of humidity. The weekend is a different story.
-
We had drizzle mid-day followed by a heavy shower which hardly touched the ground :o after which the air has been muggy.
And I'm smelly :-X
-
Me too. ;D
Hot today here in Great Yarmouth.
28/29 degrees. :sweatdrop:
-
It's been nice so far, 27 degrees and sunny with a nice breeze. There is already a weather warning out for tomorrow as the humidex is to get over 40. :sweatdrop:
-
Dark clouds refuse to drop any rain .... which is OK in Birmingham and Leamington Spa where the Commonwealth Games are taking place ::)
-
Muggy >:(. Fed up now. The sharp shower at 11.55 a.m. went no where >:( and now the humidity has shot up.
-
Stinkin' hot right now, the humidex is up over 40. A cold front is coming later tonight that will wipe out the humid air but lots of t-storms on the way too.
-
The weather is on the move :o
Dark at 8.45 p.m. :'(
-
Managed to avoid the heavy t-storms last night, but got some rain anyway. Our youngest ds texted last night saying there was a tornado warning in his area but thankfully it was short-lived.
It's still very muggy this morning and hopefully, things will cool off after today's rains and possible storms.
-
Stupid hot already and it's not even 9:30 am. ::) Hoping the storms later will give some relief.
-
Bright. Sunny. Great for all the sporting events across the UK 8)
Out with the hose pipe later to those plants that are showing signs of wilting. Heatwave expected mid-week :o
-
:-\. :sweatdrop: trying to pack up glass ware etc. in our dining room prior to new flooring simply ain't working :-\
-
The humidity is gone finally, 18 degrees feels cold now!
-
Another layer required then? Whereas I am stripping off ......... and not looking forwards to going to meet friends at 4.30 !
-
No, additional layers aren't necessary when you get hot flashes lol. The humidity is starting to build again as the sun comes out from the cloud cover, it's not oppressive thank goodness.
-
Sitting in the shaded side of the house :sunny: :sweatdrop: no air !
-
Nice cool morning, orange sunrise. :sunny:
-
I can raise you 12 drops of rain ;D
Muggy. Grey sky. No breeze >:(
-
Rain would be good right now, my lawn is getting crispy and no significant rain til next week. ::)
It's sunny this morning, light breeze, and 20 degrees.
-
Rained all morning stopped at midday but still very hot. My lawn has been crispy for quite a while now.
-
Up the spots to 19 ........... >:(
-
wet ;D
Steady heavy rain for several hours, one barrel collected 250 litres; 3 others are half full, the roof drop is smaller. Buckets are 4" at the bottom :-))))
Muggy now >:(
-
Clouding over, still a bit muggy but hoping for some rain later on today. Lawn is still crispy in parts.
-
Can't make up it's mind whether to rain ....... ranges from dull to bright ☀️ 🌞 ⛅️ ::)
-
Cloudy and muggy, big t-storm last night but with much-needed heavy rain. More of the same for the rest of the day.
-
Did Maggie sleep through?
-
Yes, thankfully she didn't make a sound. I thought for sure she would be spooked.
-
That's great. 8)
-
Overcast for the 3rd day, building humidity with some rain later.
-
Raining at the moment. 😃
-
Muggy ::). ground is dry down to 6" >:(
-
Finally some sunshine and less humid, nice day :)
-
Drizzle followed by hot sunshine = muggy air.
-
Muggy.
Threw it down earlier, now drizzling.
-
Partly cloudy most of the day, slim chance of a shower in the next couple of hours, nice temps.
-
Thunder and lightning flooding everywhere.
-
Not here :-\. Shower in the night, dull now.
-
Still raining here but not pouring anymore
-
40 mins heavy shower. Then it stopped >:(
-
Partly cloudy again with the threat of thunderstorms soon.
-
Grey drizzle in the air - if that makes sense, with intermittent blasts of hot ☀️.
-
Grey, dull, but warm.
-
Gorgeously sunny and warm, little breeze. Perfect late summer day.
-
Very dull until 30 mins ago, there is a 'lot going on' locally >:( ::). Fortunately the rain clouds have drifted away.
-
Torrential rain at 1.00 for about 25 mins with lightening and thunder. Drove it's way into the utility room, missed the mat by the door which is completely dry ???. Won't have to wash the floor ;D
-
I was having yet another meno no sleep night when storm hit..... torrential rain and thunder/lightening. Husband gets bad sleep but he was so shattered last night he managed to sleep through the lot like a log!! IF only!!!!
-
Overcast, grey and coolish, might get a bit of rain soon.
-
Sunny until 30 mins ago, now it's drizzling. Not cold.
-
So bad that the TV signal has gone off :o
Throwing it down so that the rain is avoiding the guttering. An hour ago DH was up on a ladder, clearing and securing it all ::). Ladder put away, job done. All that water disappearing though ........ our barrels will be full, we need many more.
Aaahhhh - it's a thunder storm ::)
-
Humid. Rain clouds moving in.
This morning around 5.30 am it was quite misty and had an autumnal feel to the air...some of the leaves have already fallen off the trees.
-
Sunny and very summer-like, humidex to reach 33 today and no rain til next week :o
-
C.C. - is it blustery over there :-\
-
Nope, not here. On the east coast, all the provinces are dealing with the aftermath of Hurricane Fiona, lots of devastation, no power and I think one poor soul was washed out to sea. Some areas were hit alot harder depending on the track of the storm. All the schools on P.E.I are closed. We have a niece in Nova Scotia and she's fine.
Today it's partly cloudy and cool, may rain later.
-
Tnx for the update C.C. - April showers here ::)
15 in the car and I've felt chilly for a couple of days. Heating on last night ;)
-
Chilly and drizzle all day
-
cold, damp and drizzly here in Shropshire, UK. See some of your comments in the USA after hurricane/storm. Hope things settled down now. x
-
April showers again across the Midlands >:( and colder.
-
Blustery ++
-
🌂☔️🌂☔️🌂☔️
-
Fall is definitely here...9 degrees with a stiff chilly wind. The leaves are turning colour nicely now.
-
Soggy and horrible here in Scotland :(
And as my Granny used to say...
"The nights are fair drawing in" ::)
-
We had sunshine this morning, but it's clouded over and 17 degrees. It might rain tonight.
-
Better today although the wind has rushed through; dropped then blustery all day.
The 1st frost will make the leaves drop :-\
-
Gorgeous fall day, will get up to 22 degrees and lots sunshine, rain tomorrow.
-
With lovely autumnal colours C.C.?
-
Yup. They are past their peak for the most part, there are some maples around here that have yet to change but most trees have changed and are now losing their leaves.
-
Cloudy and raining off and on..getting cooler as the day progresses. The trees are losing leaves as the wind picked up overnight.
-
After thick early morning fog the 🌞 ⛅️ came out to make a glorious Autumnal day. Lake was flat calm. Warm.
-
P*ssing down. Blooming rain forest... >:(
-
At least you have internet ;D. What have you seen, I love sloths ........... but not keen on spiders and snakes :o
-
Rain. And ants... :(
-
Watch out for the bullet ants, you don't want to meet one. We were in Costa Rica 4 years ago and our tour guide showed us a nest of them :o
-
I was reading about those types of ants in Africa where the nest was removed, by hand :o :o so that the ants 'nest' could be used for cooking .
Some cultures eat ants etc. ;)
Too early to look out at what the weather might be doing ;D
-
Lit the wood burner as we were cold: sky was dull >:( then the ⛅️ came out 🌞 ;D. Shedding layers as I type :D
-
It was absolutely dreary earlier this morning. As I walked Mags, there was a sudden down draft and the wind picked up out of nowhere then it started to rain and got cold. Now it's sunny and there's just a hint of a breeze but it's still pretty chilly, 8 degrees.
-
April showers and some >:(. People in fishing boats sticking it out as they bale water back into the Lake ;D. DH included ::)
When the ⛅️ 🌞 breaks through, the air is warm. Not good for the laundry though, been on the line for 3 days now :D
-
Sun is out after 3 or 4 days of drearyness. The weekend looks stellar, sun and close to 20 degrees. I can get my fall gardening done finally.
-
Rain, rain, rain. 🤷🏼♀️
-
Absolutely chucking it down.
It’s flooding just up the road. 🙀
-
It was the same here, Jilly.
The Cockerpoo was a soggy pup today ;D….. he hates the rain as he has to wear his waterproof suit - so uncool ;D
-
April Showers for over a week. Not cold.
-
FabULUS! 8)
-
Overcast and cold with a breeze. Quite a change from Thursday when it was 21 degrees.
-
Apparently the temp was 17 on Thursday night. Didn't need the electric blanket turned on at all. 8)
-
Aaaaannnnnnd....
It's snowing.
Crap... >:(
-
🙀
Throwing it down here most of the day.
-
Crky C.C. :o
poured heavily overnight and well into the afternoon - suddenly the ⛅️ 🌞 came out 8)
-
Crikey is right. I'm not sure how much we are getting but it's a squall coming in and they are usually sudden and lots of snow at once.
-
Blowing hard. Raining hard. Not fit to turn out a :cat48: Dark too. >:(
-
Not windy here yet, but raining still. ☹️
-
Don't you mean raining. Still ........ it's taken a pause here for all of 5 mins >:( and the wind is blowing cold drops down my neck when I step out :D
-
We missed the massive storm that Buffalo NY endured...almost 5 feet of snow :o. We got just enough to cover the grass but man it was cold! Very gusty winds with a -15 windchill.
Today is sunny and still cold and windy but not as bad.
-
I am 5ft 1" tall ;D so you wouldn't see me :o
Foul again. Heavy rain. Dull, dull. I woke thinking that I had slept 24 hours round as there has been no ☀️. >:(
-
:o. fresh ++ :o even though the 4casters warned that temps would drop. Blue sky. Calm air.
-
Any1 using plastic film and hair dryer to keep rooms warmer? I remember we used it in the 1970s ..... quite successfully. I think that some of windows, even though they are double glazed need an extra layer this year.
-
Just weather then x
-
Yep. ;D. Seasonal. Even sharper this morning, two layers of frost 8)
-
A bit cloudy today and 4 degrees with a little breeze
-
Lovely all day. Sunset weird against an almost straight line of dark cloud, almost like there was a range of mountains dropped into the horizon :o
-
Crisp again 8) :-*
-
🥶🥶🥶 the heating is working overtime
-
I could go into Monty Python mode here: You can afford heating, when I was little ........
Continues to freeze in the shade. There'll be another lovely 🌅 later :-)
-
The weather is naturally beautiful here, be it rain, sun, wind, storms, frost or even just dull days.
I try to embrace them all as simply being just weather and it somehow brings peace. x
-
Woke up to a white winter wonderland this morning. -2 but very pretty :)
-
Snow here too. Glad I did the food shop yesterday.
-
Sharp again. Blue sky. FabULUS! Looking forwards to a walk later 8)
Marchlove - when any1 moans about X, Y, Z and remind them that we live in a free country with no likelihood of bombing ;-).
-
Cloudy, windy and cold. There's a stiff breeze coming out of the east so that means nasty weather is on the way.
-
Get those wellies, hat and gloves ready for Maggie. And U will wear? ::)
-
Absolutely CLKD, just hope we can keep it that way.
‘Just weather’ again today. Beautiful whatever, here it was frosty and cold but with clear blue skies.
-
>:(. freezing fog >:(
-
Woke up to the white stuff, and also chest congestion and a cough :P Pup will want to spend the morning running amok in the snow.
-
;D. Until her paws get cold ::)
Dull. Dull. Dll. Air still. Fog has lifted a little.
-
Snow here.
-
Snow :o. on the Oxford/Northants border . Dull sky, looks like more on the way :-X
-
Snow has gone but it’s bxxxxx freezing outside 🥶🥶🥶
-
Dull. Dull. Bits of stuff falling, it could be snow or ice blowing off roofs and trees :-\
⛅️ has broke through 8). Blue sky. Different day!
-
This morning we are getting a lovely mix of freezing rain, ice pellets, normal rain and just for kicks...4 inches of wet snow later on today. :o ::)
Oh and I forgot to mention the 70 kph or45 mph wind gusts that's blowing all of it around
-
:o. BRRRR did it all land at once C.C.?
Fresh. Clear. Cold. Seasonal 8)
-
Nope, it either comes one after the other or a mix, right now the rain seems to have stopped, I guess the snow is on the way now.
-
Fresh. Blue sky. Would be nice on Mam Tor today 8)
-
So today, the day after the storm that wasn't, we have less snow on the ground than before the storm. We missed the cold air and the snow and got mostly rain and wet snow that melted on contact. No shoveling is a good thing! It's above 0 so there's some melting happening and the sunshine later should help dry things up a bit.
-
Cold. Dull. Sleet for an hour. Pouring with rain for a change ::) but due to freeze sharply over night so TAKE CARE out there!
-
Temp has swung round from 3 days ago >:( so everywhere looks so messy >:( >:(
Blue sky thus far.
-
It's nice out now, sunny and cold but the weekend is going get very messy and dangerously windy. The weather folks are strongly recommending not travelling at all on Friday or Saturday because of a flash freeze due to an extremely strong temperature drop and very strong winds with blowing snow. I had to cancel Maggie's last day at daycare because I don't want to drive if I don't have to.
-
Maggie won't mind ;-). How is your Dad, wrapped up warm enough to withstand a blast of icy weather?
-
Maggie will like the snow but not having the cold wind blow up her backside lol.
Dad is doing well, thanks for asking :). He has plenty of warm clothes and I'm sure he'll hunker down in front of the fireplace. I will have to plead with him not to go out for his walk, because he walks in any weather. He's pretty unsteady on his feet and he will likely get blown over or slip on the icy sidewalk.
-
They think that they are younger than they really are :o and forget that it hurts if we fall over!!!! Is he with you for 25/26th?
Dark now. However, we've turned the corner: nights will pull out from tomorrow .
-
He's coming over for Christmas Day, and he's supplying the turkey. It's true, he tries to do things that he shouldn't be doing when I'm not around.
There has been a winter storm warning issued for the weekend, so I've been out getting last minute errands done.
-
I saw the warnings in your direction on our weather 4cast services!!! Will the turkey be cooked already?
No improvement at all during the day here >:(. Fine drizzle, the kind that goes through every layer of clothing as far as the skin :o
-
After breakfast we had a gentle stroll, light lunch. Now the rain is pouring. Hard!
-
Friday was brutally windy with frigid windchills, and blowing snow. Thankfully we didn't get much in terms of accumulation, most of it just blew around and settled in the backyard. Travel on the highways was very dangerous so dd stayed home from work. Saturday was even windier (90kph gusts) and -30 windchill. Maggie was going bananas being stuck in the house so I had to at least walk her for 15 minutes, no longer than that to avoid freezing her pads or ears. Today the sun is out, still cold but the wind has abated just a bit. Travel conditions are much better.
Turkey is going in around 1 or 1:30, already did the mashed rutabaga, going to maple glazed sweet potatoes later..
-
We keep seeing News reports of 'weather' over there!
Dark now. It can do what it likes ;-)
-
It's better today, just a little breeze and not too cold. The forecast is calling for a big warm-up later in the week.
-
Hopefully no flooding!
Blue sky. Chilly wind. Been for a walk, well wrapped up 8)
-
Hopefully no flooding!
Blue sky. Chilly wind. Been for a walk, well wrapped up 8)
No chance of flooding, we barely have any snow at all, just enough to make things a little bit white.
-
Lucky then!
Still blue sky, bright sunshine ......... hung a sheet on the line earlier, dry enough to bring in to air in the utility room :-*
-
Wind chill is up >:(
-
It's still cold today but not nearly bone-chilling as it has been. Ds's city has alot more snow and he's only an hour away.
-
Hopefully DS isn't trapped?
-
Nowhere near enough to be trapped, enough to shovel for sure. He lives in an apartment so he doesn't need to worry about that sort of thing.
-
Until the power goes off :-\
Drizzle. Not as cold.
-
Lovely sunshine for most of yesterday, back to cold drizzle this morning .......... I'm in a funny mood ;D
-
Cloudy and 12 degrees...what a change from a week ago! The ground is thawing so it's muddy but I'll take it with the mild temps. Rain coming later.
-
Dull. Now raining. Flopping against the windows >:(
-
Nice day here today, sun was shining and it looked lovely.
-
Mainly sunshine all day 8). Nights are pulling out :-*
-
Wet. Wet. Wet and some ......... :-\.
Blue sky. ☀️ ::). [2.41]
Cloudy and dull again >:(. [3.14]
Chucking it down >:(
-
Dangerous conditions on the roads across the UK :o >:(. 11 today, frost and snow 4cast 'on high ground' next week. I suspect that the 'rain is falling from the sky' ::)
Last year Napa Valley vine yards were burning to the ground: today they are under flood waters :'(
Take care Out There!
Hush - the sun is shining
-
Blustery, chilly wind
Frost and snow 4cast ..........
-
Drizzling. Again >:(
Fortunately 4 R trip to Stratford yesterday the weather remained dry and cold.
-
Air getting colder, as 4cast. Any snow any where?
-
Sharp frost, still freezing in the shade. Blue. 🌌. Seasonal :-*
-
Lovely frosty mornings from a blue sky. Looks from the sunset that it we will wake to another cold start.
-
April showers ;D. lovely ☀️ then clouds over and tips it down - been caught twice whilst feeding the birds and sweeping up leaves >:( ;D
-
Sunny but frigid -8C with a windchill of -12. Will get even colder as the week progresses, another polar vortex.
-
I was watching a programme last night about the Beast from the East that hit the UK in 2018. I can't remember anything about that!
Days are beginning dull B4 the ⛅️ 🌞 breaks through. Air chilly.
-
Sharp frost
Blue sky
Chilly - seasonal then ;D
-
freezing. And really affects me with my thyroid at the moment.
They say if it feels bracing, that's healthy. And luckily I get that usually. But today. No. Freezing. And I've got all the heating on and watching the money burn.
-
Feeling cold is a symptom of thyroid problems? Get some blankets round U from the feet upwards as well as across the shoulders.
Bright ☀️
-

Bright ☀️
Nice and bright here today as well.
The thyroid thing just makes it hard to move in the cold, rather than feeling really cold. Like I can keep warm but the weather will still affect my energy. Ah well, that and menopause ;D
-
Sharp frost
Blue sky
Chilly
-
Rainy, heavy at times. The wind will pick up later this afternoon- gusts up to 70km per hour.
The best part....the snow and ice are melting :parti:
-
I would prefer ice and snow ;D. I hate wet windy weather. Does Maggie mind?
-
Feels like it's freezing :o though the birds' ice isn't solid. Much colder than I expected >:(
-
I would prefer ice and snow ;D. I hate wet windy weather. Does Maggie mind?
She doesn't mind as long as we are not walking upwind otherwise she gets a blast of cold air up her furry butt. ;D
Dull grey day, rain finally stopped overnight. Slightly breezy and cold.
-
Foggy start followed by lovely ☀️
-
Just weather as usual ;)
-
?? weather to enjoy ??
Frost 4cast :o
-
Is it blustery in Scotland overnight? :o
⛅️ trying to get through 8) :-*
-
Just normal weather. :D
How wonderful it is and always has been.
M x
-
I read on the News that parts of 'the North' had it bad :-\
Bright sunshine here.
-
Felt quite bitter out today, everyone was saying how cold it felt. ☹️
-
Certainly dull and much colder, no sitting outside with a cuppa though I have done some weeding.
-
Drizzling. Colder. Dull.
-
We are digging out after a winter storm that happened late yesterday afternoon and into the overnight. We got snow, ice pellets and freezing rain, all in 18 hours or so. I got up for work this morning but the schools in our district are closed today. So, I was able to get out and start scraping the cars and shoveling the driveway. We must have gotten a good 6 inches worth and more to come later. It's cold and a bit blustery right now but no precip going on.
-
:o :o that's some snow fall! I see that California is expecting a dump too . Good exercise, shovelling snow - cheaper than going to the gym. What does Maggie think? Good exercise as long as there is a hot Bovril in a mug to come home too ;-).
Dull. Dull. Drizzling. Dull. The weather ain't much better ::)
-
Raining. Cold too.
-
April Showers ;D
-

Dull. Dull. Drizzling. Dull. The weather ain't much better ::)
It is good exercise if you shovel correctly, otherwise you can pull a muscle in your back or shoulders :-\
Maggie loves the snow but today it's -8 and there is a crust on the snow so she's walking with her toes splayed in case her paws break through and she drops 4 inches down. ;D
Bright sunshine finally today.
-
Paws are OK in snow until little balls form between the pads: like a stone in the wellie, apparently :o
-
Did U see the moon, Venus and Jupiter in a line, quite unusual.
-
Missed it because of the cloudy conditions but I managed to catch both planets before they met up with the moon.
-
The sky was clear enough last night 8)
-
Woke up to....more snow! >:( At least it's not terribly cold.
-
:o. Spring has arrived with you then ::)
Dry. Cold. A few April showers.
-
Same old. Same old. April showers ::)
-
What a wonderful thing weather is :)
I
-
At night, when I'm asleep ;D
The air has certainly turned colder and snow is 4cast :o. My lower legs didn't warm up all of yesterday until I got into the bath. Dull and grey :(
Did any1 see the Northern Lights?
-
There's a winter storm on the way to my area of the province starting around the dinner hour. They are forecasting between 8-12 inches of heavy snow (temps will be above 0) plus blizzard conditions lasting overnight into early tomorrow morning.
I am soooo done with winter.... >:(
-
Another layer as well as wellies then C.C.?
-
Gotta bring out the serious winter boots so I don't get snow up my pant legs ;D
-
Fishermen's waders might do the trick C.C.?
Dull.
-
There were large drifts but my big boots sufficed. It took 45 minutes to clean off two cars and another 2 hours to clear the driveway. :o The sun is out and a bright blue sky, the ice and snow on the trees are melting, thankfully.
-
Cheaper than going to the gym?
Dull. Dull. Chilly. Etc..
-
Any snow yet? ☀️ is pouring into our lounge :-*
-
Snowing ;D
-
Hasn't any1 else got snow :-\ ???
It's done hard gritty stuff and proper snow which at dusk began to settle. Can't even think what we will wake to! Even the birds went to bed early, about 2.30 p.m. :(. Except the blackbird who was singing his socks off as the sun went down. Well, assuming it went down as it was dull, dull, dull.
-
Slushy snow on the roads hopefully it won't freeze. About 3". Snowed all night, I kept getting out of bed to check ::)
-
Yep here. Bloody loads of it! 🥶
It’s just stopped, been at it all day yesterday and through the night.
-
Thawing rapidly ..........
-
The snow we got last Friday is slowly melting but the plowed mounds on the streets are still at least 3ft high. Another round of snow is coming tomorrow, maybe half of what we got last week, ugh. ::)
At least it has been nothing but sun the last few days.
-
Drizzled hard grit all night, snowing again >:(
-
Sunshine ☀️ for about 20 mins ;D
Isn't any1 else getting weather ...........
-
Warmer
Very very windy
Pouring now from a blue sky :o
-
Getting a few flurries right now, it's overcast and just under 0 degrees but pleasant otherwise. Thank goodness I don't have to shovel. ::) The eaves above our garage is lined with icicles, have to watch our heads walking underneath.
-
Now that's cold ;D. Break them off for your G&T?
-
Had a calima in Lanzarote yesterday, was really eerie, thick fog came in off the sea and visibility was so bad flights were diverted to Gran Canaria and Fuerteventura. Was back to normal today, nice and sunny.
-
Would that be 'fog' .......... I remember those across the Fens when Dad leaned out of the driver's window to follow the white line and cats eyes :o
My cousin lives on Lanzarote, give her a wave from me ;-)
POURED all night, bright ☀️ now.
-
Bright sun but cold winds from the northeast.
-
Brighter after sharp frost early in the morning.
Not as cold as it looks
-
This morning feels the same as yesterday but later will hit 6 degrees, hopefully starting a spring thaw. I knocked down the row of ever-growing icicles overhanging my garage, if one had fallen on someone they'd have gotten a nasty surprise.
-
No good for G&T then C.C.?
We used to break them to suck :o ...... :-X
-
So far bright and ⛅️ ☀️
-
None stop rain
-
Blustery, wind has changed round >:(. We sat out on the patio with a cuppa mid-morning, I had planned on getting some weeding done. However >:(
-
Slightly warmer than yesterday so am taking the opportunity to get into the garden to potter :-*
Criky in the last half hour the wind has GOT UP :o items are banging or blowing round the garden, thank goodness for fencing!
-
Pouring now, blowing against the windows :o
-
Changeable. Sun is warm then the chilly air arrives :-\. Doesn't anyone else get weather ;D
-
The weather in the south today has been cold but sunny. I actually managed to get some washing out for a blow which was nice for a change.
-
So much colder than yesterday 🥶. Rainy most of the day >:(
-
Dull. Thankfully there won't be much rain, but need a bit of sunshine now it's the end of March!
-
11 in the car but looks much colder :-\. Heating on, 🔥 lit.
-
Dull. Not cold.
-
Chilly. ⛅️ - not much heat today
-
After a few sunny days which became warmer, this morning it is pouring. Hard >:( and colder. Such a shame for those who have arranged Events! :'(
-
Storms have been dreadful during the week, flash floods have caused rivers to put into properties in Somerset/Devon - black skies yesterday, fortunately the storms 'went round' until the evening.
-
Peeing down! 🌧 despite forecast showing just overcast.... Dashed out yesterday to cut trade-off well moss really, so feel smug.
Was so warm yesterday, am now back in a fleece. Glad some things in this country remain as expected....
-
I've put our heating on >:(
I love moss ........... :-*
-
Just started raining here. 🌧
Been out in just a t.shirt, no jacket, it was warmish.
Now its cold.
-
After a very warm morning and a couple of hours weeding this afternoon the sky turned black B4 it rained. Hard :o. TV lost power for about 25 mins. ⛅️ 🌞 now!
-
Lovely sunset last evening shortly B4 heavy rain :o
Today it's been ⛅️, chilly wind or too warm sunshine >:( ::)
-
F1 weekend in Imola cancelled due to potential flooding across the area following heavy rain and land slides :o
-
It's just lovely here today. Blue sky, little fluffy clouds, sunshine etc etc.
-
Been lovely today.
Wall to wall sunshine. :sunny:
-
Too hot already ;D
Ok it's not really hot, just lovely sunshine but I'm just not ready for it. My house gets way too hot and I've a lot of housework to catch up on ;D
-
Housework can wait until after dark. ;D. I've not been outside because I'm out of meal worms and can't explain it to the birds :D
So stayed inside and read Sunday papers after clearing the utility room.
-
Summer-like weather here for the rest of the week and no rain til next week. It's nice but my body hasn't adjusted yet.
-
How lovely C.C. - does the change happen all at once?
After 3 weeks without rain there has been overnight drizzle. Touching the leaves but probably not down to the roots. Cooler.
-
I don't do well with sudden heat waves like this, I need a few days to acclimatize. It's supposed to be more seasonal this weekend and no humidity.
-
Finally sunny and warmish! Helps (a tiny bit) with the menopause madness and long may it continue.
-
1 June and has felt like November all day >:( apart from 20 mins when the ⛅️ then went back in.
-
Beautiful day today
-
Much better here in the sunshine, chilly in the shade ::)
-
The last few days have been brilliant; blue sky, sunshine and warm enough to enjoy being outside all day to get some real vitamin D rather than from a bottle from Boots. Bliss!
-
Warm enough. Any hotter and I wilt ::). . Air is fresh at times. Lovely to sit in the sunshine and/or shade as necessary.
-
Seasonal today, mix of sun and cloud and 23 degrees and a light breeze. Thankfully I have the day off to enjoy it. :)
-
How did U spend your day? It's been grumpy today with a few hours of warmth. Cloudy now.
-
Getting hooter next week. Gets the fans out from storage
-
All sounds a bit noisy Littleminnie ! ;)
Yesterday the national forecast mentioned faint possiblity of some rain at the weekend.
-
Grumpy sky here. Rain is 4cast - I think it was down from the East of Scotland swerving round the Wash and into the Channel?
-
There are a record number of wildfires burning in the northern part of the province and Quebec. Subsequently, the residual smoke has been filtering south via northwest winds, and as a result, our air quality has been poor the entire week. There is a haze in the distance and the sunrises and sunsets look like something out of a post-apocalyptic movie. Today it's forecasted to be the worst day of the week for polluted air. Anyone who has respiratory issues, the elderly, and young children are being asked not to go outside. The school boards have mandated recess periods and gym classes be moved indoors. The winds are due to switch around for the weekend so the smoke will not be an issue. We have had to close our windows to keep the smoke out. Thankfully it hasn't been hot so the house is comfortable without open windows.
-
Awful. Wild fires have been happening in the UK too - Wales and Yorkshire already. Often caused by people leaving portable barbQS without putting them out, a bag of sand should suffice. I would ban those completely!
Today there's a chill wind with lots of warm sunshine 🌞
-
Two days of intense heat which has meant that I stayed inside until dusk last night: there was a sudden black cloud plus a high wind followed by a heavy shower which hardly touched the ground! Now it's rumbling around, bit like my guts ::)
-
After an hour of thunder without lightning, the heavens have OPENED :o this will fill the barrels 8). So dark that we've put the light on. I've slept for 3 hours even through the 1st claps. :-\
-
Heavy rain all morning, should taper off later today. Rather muggy but I'm still wearing a hoodie :-\
-
There's been a chill wind despite the sunshine ........... still raining ::)
-
No chill, no rain just heat
-
Blue skies and hot again after yesterday's storm.
-
Scorchio here in the West of Scotland. I have the fan going in the living room already. The Cockapoo is lying in front of it ;D
I thought the thunderstorm here yesterday would cool everything down but nope!
-
We had the cool air blower on until the early hours, wafting across our bodies. Blue sky. Haven't stepped outdoors yet.
-
:sunny: :sweatdrop:
-
Landslips in Scotland :o on BBC News
-
Lovely :) Sunny and really hot. I hope it continues because it almost makes me forget menopause madness. Honestly, I feel 100% better than I did a month ago
-
Sleeping under a sheet now. (Hard to find flat sheets these days)
-
Morning Girls - CapriCapri - that's good. Little steps ;-)
littleminnie - our bed is 6 x 7 foot and we buy cotton sheets on line
Bright :sunny:
-
Dull after several storms yesterday. Cooler.
-
I wish it would cool down just for a day or two. I'm suffering with the heat this time for some reason. Have lowered my oestrogen, only a bit, whether it's that :'(
-
Probably the hormonal upheaval karashannon
Muggy this evening. I woke cold in the early hours so have a blanket ready for later. Sky has been black at times then bright and 😎
-
Yes it must be the hormone change, hopefully it will settle. I've also got cold on and off this evening and now sat here at midnight, muggy again!
-
I was cold in the early hours so pulled the blanket over me. Then a storm arrived: apparently - never heard a thing until a neighbour revved his sports car at 6.15 a.m. >:(
-
Crashing rain, crashing grey = crashing mood :(
The forecast for the rest of the week is better - I really do hope it delivers. IT'S JUNE!!!
-
So we decided, on the hottest day yet - 28 in the car :o - to go for a drive ::). We found a small cafe that sells crepes: mine was filled with Black Forest Gateaux covered in chocolate chips and two large dollops of ice cream 8). I think that size is for sharing ;D :-X
Now home, cuppa to hand, all windows opened.
-
It was sunny with some clouds this morning but it's starting to cloud over a bit now, might rain later this afternoon. I hope we get enough to water the lawn.
-
Do U get humidity C.C. I can't remember ::)
Duller. Still warm.
-
Cooler yesterday. Sat out several times until the humidity levels rose. I put the hose round where necessary at 9.30 p.m.
Blue sky and cool breeze this morning.
-
Very blustery last evening and overnight, my poor self-set foxglove - 5ft tall and now bending >:( which has smaller plants growing from the root 8)
Blue sky
Cooler [but not much]
-
Do U get humidity C.C. I can't remember ::)
Duller. Still warm.
Oh yeah, it gets pretty muggy in the summer. In fact, we've had a few days of muggy temps and pop up thunderstorms. We just had a doozy pass through a couple of hours ago. Mags was not impressed.

Oh poor Maggie.
Our beautiful border collie was terrified of storms. We lost her many years ago but we still react to thunder on her behalf!
We used to try to ignore the noise, if we panic then she panicked more, as she was looking to us for reassurance and confidence. Not easy when I was so soft I wanted to just cuddle her and she was scared😂
Could do with some rain though... Garden looks dreadful. But then I will moan it's raining and I can't outside to work!

The government has said it is prepared for a "range of scenarios" following reports that Thames Water could be on the brink of collapse.
Ministers declined to comment on the company's situation, but said regulator Ofwat monitored "the financial position" of all water firms.
Thames Water is under pressure over its performance and reportedly struggling under £14bn of debt.
-
Mixed bag here. Towels out before work as dry here, 10mins on motorway & pouring, dry up where I work then coming home pouring at home (can't win!!). I was very fortunate as had AL when they fab weather was here.
-
Autumn has arrived ::)
-
Oh hush you littleminnie!!!
Admittedly I am forced into full length pj bottoms right now. And yes. It has been stupid chilly. BUT I am managing to convince myself that this is just a teeny tiny blip in the weather whilst I gaze longingly at the little summer dresses I have yet to wear. Am.happy in my oblivious little sunshine mind. ;D
-
Yep that was our Summer ;D
-
Fingers in ears. Not listening.
Warbling The Sun Will Shine Tomorrrrow 🎶🎶🎶🎶
-
:rofl: :na:
-
Dull, dreich & depressing..the 3 D's!!!
-
Dreich!
Left the Highlands about 15 years ago but never found a more apt word. I still use it even in the Herts\Cambs border. use haar as well when the misty fog rolls in! Less used inland...
-
1 doesn't need to understand the word dreich to know what it feels and means. Similar to squelch, my fav descriptive word.
Dull. At least it's cooler!
-
My husband just told me it's going to be windy until midday then sunny forever after, sounds ok.
I love the long daylight hours, got up at 5am, didn't need the light on.
Don't need a coat either, I'm contented.
-
Cooler thank goodness, that heat was getting to me while trying to move stuff from my flat (for house move), flat is like a greenhouse.
Now a lovely breeze coming in the window
-
Hot today with a severe storm watch issued. It's so muggy, I would welcome a good storm right now.
-
I hate humidity >:(
Sun is pouring into the lounge now.
-
Sarah T, I remember harr getting used in the isle of man - not heard it since. Showery, windy & miserable today! Put wash out waste of time.
-
Blue sky. Breezy. Will be much warmer later.
-
Hi Foxylady,
We knew haar from the Highlands, the Isle of Man just have had it at all angles blowing in from the sea. Assume a Scandinavian word?
Now we tend to use the word manky to cover most weather situations!
Bit sunny on and off, breezy but dry. I'll take that.
-
Overcast and very muggy...waiting for the rain that was supposed to fall yesterday.
-
Do U get much warning, i.e. black skies ....
-
We get watches and warnings about severe weather on the way, and large rainfall amounts. Today it's just garden variety rain.
-
I'm cold enough to put on a cardigan :-\
-
Chilly. Drizzling gently.
-
chilly, grey and rain like the proverbial stair rods...............just depressing! It's July!!!!!
-
Hot hot hot! 29 degrees, feels like 37. The next couple of days will be the same. Had a check-up on the air conditioner this morning, thank goodness. ;D
-
It will rain across the UK this week: Wimbledon, F1 Circus/Grand Prix and other smaller events taking place.
The holding barrels are full, phew!
-
Bright and sunny. High temps 4cast for tomorrow and Sat with thundery showers. Well it's Wimbledon as well as F1 this weekend ::)
-
Another hot and sticky day but rain is forecast later tonight, bye bye humidity.
-
Will there be thunder as well C.C.?
-
It just started raining about 15 minutes ago and no thunder thus far but I'm thinking there will be storm watches issued later.
-
No thunder just a good downpour yesterday. Sunny and no humidity....gorgeous.
-
:sunny: :sweatdrop:
-
Seems to be a complete 360 from earlier in the week. Yesterday hot (24.5) for Scotland but cloudy & windy where there were threats of thunder all day. Early hours thunder & downpour today sunshine & high of 20 expected!!
-
Dull. Drizzle. Well of course, there's stuff going on ::)
-
After a warm muggy day it's tipping rain all over, hopefully it will penetrate deeper into the Earth. Last nights didn't go more than 1" deep!
-
Thundering. As Ned on le Tour was telling us that 'the finish will be lightning fast' and there was a flash here through our windows :o ;D it's raining there too.
-
Persistent precipitation for nearly a week. Otherwise known as pissing down and cold. More like Autumn oop north
-
Persistent precipitation for nearly a week. Otherwise known as pissing down and cold. More like Autumn oop north
-
Cooler. Dull. Drizzling lightly. Not enough to put me off working in the garden 8)
-
Is it Autumn and no one thought to tell me? ;D
-
Hot summer day, no humidity. Clouding over now, maybe pop-up showers on the way.
-
SarahT - I've added a cardy this evening.
C.C. - did the showers arrive?
-
Thinking about wearing socks in bed in case I scare husband with my cold toes. I'm just too nice sometimes. ;)
-
;D. socks. I've had the electric blanket on every night despite the hot weather. My legs always feel cold :-\ though apprantnely not to touch ::)
-
It's been very warm and muggy these past few days. A line of t-storms rolled through after the dinner hour yesterday, got severe storm warnings but really it wasn't all that bad around here. Today is sunny warm and breezy.
-
Lovely last 2 days dry & warmish, colder now & heavy rain overnight, same for over weekend! :-\
-
Anything has to be better than the 40C plus on mainland Europe!
Here: Cooler. Drizzling.
-
Cloudy and warm
Taz :)
-
So much rain here over the last couple of days, I've put my dehumidifier on.
-
Stormy last night, though I heard none of it. Today is mostly cloudy but hot and muggy. Tomorrow the humidex is supposed to get to 40C. :o
-
I hate hot and humid weather.
Today on the North Norfolk coast it's been cloudy, ☀️, muggy, warm ::) with blue sky sometimes.
-
☔️☔️☔️
-
Light drizzle from a blue sky :o now there is a black cloud overhead, rain is 4cast with heavy winds.
-
Rained. Hard. All day. Pity those camping for several events including MotoGP and I see that several Festivals have been cancelled due to 4cast. Bet Fairport are holding their breath!
I had to put the heater on earlier :-\
-
:sunny:
-
Overcast and misting right now, may get t-storms this afternoon.
-
Time to get feet up then C.C., very good book and doze?
Still warm :sweatdrop:
-
The sun is out and there's a wee breeze. (A good drying day as my mum would say)
-
Yesterday was a good drying day even for towels. Now those out over night, hang. Still. Sky is grey ::)
-
After yesterday's depressing grey and rain, today was lovely and sunny :) It makes such a difference - almost tangible.
-
I agree. Though having slept the day away I've missed most of the ☀️ :-\
-
It's been wet; windy and when the 🌞 ⛅️ ☀️ it's very hot!
-
I'm visiting my friend in Paris now, and yesterday it was hot and sunny. Today, it's cloudy and 69.8°F. It feels like blessing
-
typically bank holiday drizzle ........ but fortunately not cold :(
-
Too warm ;D but it own't last beyond tomorrow evening ;)
-
Too warm ;D but it own't last beyond tomorrow evening ;)
Fingers crossed 🤞. Far too hot for me, I thought we were done with summer!
-
We haven't had a Summer yet :D
-
We haven't had a Summer yet :D
Lol okay my hot week of hell in Turkey then ;D
First year I haven't been able to tolerate the heat, am getting old !
-
It's a different sort of heat though :-\. More intense. More sudden.
-
It's scorchio here, probably the hottest it's been for months, I was just saying the other day I was enjoying the lovely autumnal weather! I like hot weather if I can lie around by the sea or have a leisurely walk but it's hard when you have lots to do. I have a fan in every room at home and its been my saviour. I can see air con becoming more mainstream in the UK in the coming years.
-
We had the cool air blower on most of the night. It lulls me nicely.
HOT! :sweatdrop:
-
I'd love to find a fan that is quiet enough to sleep through. Anyone know if those Dyson ones are any good? Would be worth the expense if they really were quiet.
-
When I am tired I can sleep through anything, even the Rugby commentary ::)
-
I'd love to find a fan that is quiet enough to sleep through. Anyone know if those Dyson ones are any good? Would be worth the expense if they really were quiet.
My counsellor has one and says they are great, she sleeps with it on. Also has a remote control for it by her bed so she doesn't have to get out of bed to turn it on and off.
-
I'd love to find a fan that is quiet enough to sleep through. Anyone know if those Dyson ones are any good? Would be worth the expense if they really were quiet.
Or wear earplugs? I've never found any to fit properly in my ears, they must be a weird shape 🤣
-
I will look into a Dyson fan, thanks Penguin. 3M yellow foam earplugs are v good, you can buy in bulk on Amazon, much much cheaper than in Boots.
-
Ear plugs can cause more problems than they solve! Apparently I have narrow, hairy ears which hides the drums :o. I often wonder about sports people who use ear plugs daily, i.e. MotoGP and F1 ....... whether they suffer any infections because they lick them B4 inserting :o
Warm. Still warm. :-*
-
So happy to have sun and blue skies. I find the gentle lull of a fan to be quite soothing - especially as I know it is a short lived thing
-

Are you supposed to do that, lick them I mean???
-
I wouldn't do, each set of plugs in motor racing is new from a packet. Even so ! Also, how many of those each year go into Landfill >:(
Warm already :-\
-
Scorchio
-
Yep. Can't open the windows 'cos of the gnats >:(. Cool air blower on. Sheets back.
-
Any rain anywhere? It drizzled slightly: twice: not enough to wet the paving! Muggy.
-
Never thought I’d say this but, I’m looking forward to Autumn 🥵
-
Never thought I’d say this but, I’m looking forward to Autumn 🥵
Yup me too!
-
Slightly cooler from a blue sky and :sunny: there's no breeze!
-
I'm wilting. Fast :-\ :sweatdrop: Even the breeze isn't where I am sitting >:( >:(. And it's making doors bang throughout the house :(
-
At last. Drizzle ;D and cooler, not enough to wet the ground though >:(. Yet.
-
:sunny: :sweatdrop:
-
Grey, grim and wet :( Makes my spirits crash.
-
A sharp storm then the sun broke through again. Cooler.
-
Thunderstorms last night.
Sadly a dead pigeon in my garden which I've got to find a way to deal with. He is a wood pigeon. He looks very peaceful though and unhurt. Not as if mauled by a cat or anything. Very peaceful face, it's the only comfort.
-
Birds etc. die. We put anything like that into a double wrapped bag and into the food waste collection bin which is locally, incinerated.
Rained overnight, about 1", I think, looking at the sky right now, that my laundry will be getting a heavy rinse :o ::)
-
Poor Dawlish and Exeter 'caught it' over the weekend :'( and here in South Midlands it's blowing. Hard. Scremaing around the corners of the house. :-\ >:(
It's an apple dropper!
-
Apple dropper ;D
I find I love moving air so this is really good for me, all the latches open on the windows, loads of air blowing and moving around the house. Love it.
I just need to get me moving, that's taking longer but I did work a late evening this week.
-
Torrential rain - though less than in the Execter region yesterday :o
Blustery. Warm >:(
-
Torrential rain here too, stood on sidelines watching my poor son and his class playing a footie match, they're drenched.
-
That's devotion :medal: why would anyone .......... :-\ :o
-
We had to stay and watch as we were bringing him home afterwards. Could have sat in the car I guess 🤣
-
Too blustery for brollies too!
-
And we weren't sensible enough to bring one anyway!
-
Every day is a learning curve ;)
Torrential. Still.
-
I’m loving this cooler weather. Never thought I would say that. I can get a warm bath, put my heating on and wear my favourite jumpers again without sweating buckets.
-
I love the cooler weather too, needed a light duvet last night first time last night and wasn't too hot to snuggle up against hubby.
But we are off to Bergerac for the weekend tomorrow (without kids yay!!!) and it's meant to be 26-28 degrees and I am dreading the heat 🙈🙄
-
And humidity down there Penguin ........... Bergerac is the 1st place that I saw hibiscus growing outside 8). Enjoy!
I've had the electric blanket on all night since Tuesday as well as pulling an extra cover over us. This morning: blue sky, absolutely calm.
-
Heavy rain here. I love being indoors in the warm when it’s bucketing it down outside, it feels so cozy.
-
Bright sunshine yesterday; light drizzle now. Have been putting the electric blanket on since Tuesday night .........
-
yesterday was sunny and mood brightening. Today is grey and soul sapping. I can feel SAD coming on and will be moaning a lot. Please forgive me but moaning kind of helps :(
-
Get yourself a Winter 'sad' lamp CapriCapri? to sit in front of several times a day when you can't get into the sunshine. 10 mins daily can help lift the spirits, especially if 1 focusses on birds/flowers etc.. I hate these dark nights .......... >:(
-
Hi CLKD. I do have a SAD lamp, vit D supplements.........the whole shebang. I kind of have my coping strategies but still hate the great. Hey ho, part of life etc. I just find it helpful to moan and share, especially with fellow SAD bods. Thank you
-
I loves a good moan I does ;-). I shout at the TV then DH tells me 'they can't hear you!' :D
Intermittent April showers today ::)
-
Hot. :sunny: :sweatdrop:
-
Muggy. I feel quite 'off colour' ........ :-\
-
Thundering over head :o pouring with rain ........
-
Flooding in Scotland, just got back from there 😳
-
It's been a mix of weather all week :-\: today has been lovely, warm sunshine: a 'get on and do' day.
-
Autumnal. Warm. 🌞.
Lots of small white flies everywhere >:(. I don't think that bite :-\
-
Wet over night, I reckon there was at least 1" !!
Dull. Not as cold. No wind.
-
Yesterday was icy cold. This morning after more rain in the night: another 1" I reckon : the sky is blue/black/white clouds with blustery winds. Warm again. :-\
Raining. Hard. Wishing. Hanging. Wind dropped.
-
We had a very brief, sharp hail storm go through about an hour ago from a black cloud; followed 10 mins later by a second :o: from a blue sky ::)
Frost is 4cast >:(
-
Dry and VERY cold
-
Sun shining, air is cold, dry, blustery.
-
Windy woo. Plants blown over. But dry and sunny,so I will take that thank you very much ;)
-
Dull. Chilly. Have to wear my thick Winter coat now :-\. Dry though.
-
Mild, wet and windy in the south
-
Spoke to soon - it's drizzling. Hard >:(
-
Drizzling. So staying at home to rest and potter.
-
Hopefully no one suffered any storm damage since Wed., :-\ it's been dire in some places :'(
Warmer. Light drizzle.
-
Proper Autumnal morning with mist rising from the fields/hedgerows - yep, up early enough to see it this morning ;D
Clear, chilly, blue sky :-*
-
Lovely Autumnal morning: blue sky, colours are changing through greens, reds, golds ......
-
Dull misty start, ⛅️ 🌞 now, might hang laundry on the line. Rain 4cast >:(
-
Every1 battened down, ready for the next storm, which has a name that no one seems to pronounce the same ::)
-
Schools shut here and we now have grandchildren today at very short notice for parents.
-
Oh what fun! Board games on the table: Duplo : plasticine?
Put off our fishing trip due to dire 4cast :-\
-
Crikey what weather in the South of England :o :o :'(
-
Wet. Again >:( So much for my long walk, planned to mid-morning. So it's back to the Wobble Board ;D
-
Intermittent April showers >:(. Warm sunshine out of the wind.
-
Blue sky. Wind howling round the house. Birds flying backwards :o - another storm 4cast!
-
Frosty start
Blue skies
Seasonally chilly
-
Is every1 ready for the 1st snows of the Autumn? Although the weather people say that 'there is less certainty over the weather than usual'. Nowt new there then ;D
This morning it's thin rain, the kind that goes through everything >:(
I think that I'm getting a set of 'zerofit' base-layer and socks from Santa 8). Hopefully stuffed with bubble bath/soap :whist:
-
Snow gates have been closed :o
Two lovely bright days with blue skies and fresh air
-
Fresh
Cold
Blue sky
-
Chucking it down with heavy drizzle >:(
-
Black ice in our estate. Nearly landed on my substantial bum whilst walking the Cockapoo this morning :o
-
But U didn't - quite :-\
Cockerpoo unimpressed ???
-
Swings from bright sunshine to very dull >:(
-
Blowing a hooley again. Blew the bird feeder over so muggins here out in the gales weighing it down....
-
;D. I now have a mental image of you hanging on to the feeder as it blows around the garden ........
Blustery.
-
Hey!
I did actually mean I weighed it down with various lumps of iron and bricks, I wasn't doing my Mary Poppins impersonation, I save that for very special occasions 😜
-
Blustery. Intermittent drizzle. Today it's sunny enough 4 two walks.
Any1 getting any snow?
-
Wet, cold and breezy. The combination I hate most >:(……..And the Cockapoo refused to go out so it must be bad ;D……..
-
Our cocker and cat would sit in the back door and if they both went back into the cat's basket, there was no point in my getting togged up for a walk. Even when it was sunny ::)
Nice enough to do 2 hours weeding 8)
-
Rest and Be Thankful closed due to flooding ::)
Had to remove the wreath from the front door as it was constantly banging/rattling !
-
Bright. No drizzle :o. Seasonally chilly. Dry.
-
Drizzly here, a nice fine mist of rain. Quite nice to be walking the dog in fresh air after amount of time indoors yesterday
-
Dry and a fresh cool 2 Degrees - I think I will go out for a little walk before dinner and darkness falls
-
Sounded like a double bed sheet being flapped outside the bedroom window >:( all night!!
Now that I've hung towels out to blow, it's drizzling >:(. >:(
-
Began with blue sky. Drizzling hard. Again. Neighbour measured 1" rainfall over night :o
-
CRIKEY!!! I'd build the Ark except that I get sea sick !!!! the Wind/rain are trying to get into the house :o and it's bin day tomorrow. Hopefully those stood out, including ours, R 2 heavy to blow over :-\
-
Thankfully the stupid winds have begun to abate. Haven't had it as strong as that for years. Our house sounds like a creaking old galleon.
Will do a perimeter check around the house and garden tomorrow once light, a few pots scuttering about th or garden but expect a few branches down.
Hope everyone has been safe.🌬
-
Our bin blew over :o
-
Can I feel smug and say ours didnt? Mind you the hefty breeze block on the lid may have helped....
Today, very calm and mild. Phew
-
Began bright and sunny B4 clouding over with threatening black clouds. ⛅️ again now ::). Calm.
-
CLKD am not sure if you are describing the weather or my moods on a really bad day...😠. Today being calmer both weather and emotionally. Thankfully.
🙄
-
Grim!
-
Yep, that blue sky went and drizzle has set in. Again !
-
Calmer. But 4 how long ?
-
Even grimmer :(
-
?? flooded ?? any1?
-
I don't think it's raining at this moment in time :-\
-
Quite mild and calm. But nippy outside to start, hence the wild bird invasion at her we topped all their food up.
Looks like a chilly few days ahead. But, well, we all think it's a New Year so almost Spring.... Hmm no, we get first in May as well and I dash out to fleece the delicate plants. Winter drawers on !
-
Sunny, frosty (thawing out now though) cool, fresh 2 Degrees
-
Frost has been threatened and 'snow on high ground'. That'll be Winter then ;D
-
Seasonally icy cold :o and dry :-*
-
Stayed a bit lighter today 🙂
-
Lovely bright sunshine then black/grey sky followed by drizzle. Air temp dropping as I type.
-
Yup, temp drop here too, we've lit a fire, house a bit cold.
-
Fire lit
Frosty start followed by blue sky
Birds knew it was going to be colder, they have cleaned the feeds for 3 days!
No snow in the South Midlands - yet
-
Snowball fight : Roxana Miskelly, 38, from Inverurie, said the idea was sparked on Monday after a huge amount of snow fell throughout the day.
Ms Miskelly said a call on social media saw a great turnout and the town squared up again on Tuesday night, with hundreds battling under floodlights at the local sports centre.
. looks fun. I can almost taste the snow!
Here: dry. Chilly. Nights are pulling out 8)
-
Thick in Wales apparently :o. Cold. Dry. Blue sky here 8). Off to feed wild birds.
I haven't managed to break the ice on the ponds yet, will need to take boiling water out this afternoon then cover the water with bubble wrap.
-
It's turned right round, positively balmy :-\ and the wind hasn't been too noisy. Yet. Gentle rain overnight, however the ice on the ponds though mobile will take a few days to melt completely.
-
Any1 badly affected yet?
-
The wind is howling here in the West of Scotland. Garden fences still standing (so far :o).
-
It's a second day of horizontal rains here, in Glasgow... :-*
-
It was 10 in the car however the air temp has dropped mid-afternoon. The ice - 3-5" thick - has melted :o
-
Dull yesterday with blustery winds; this morning broke with a blue sky and ⛅️ 🌞. Air can't decide whether it's chilly or not ::)
-
Has any1 seen the sky this morning :o 8) ........... :-\
-
11 in the car :o. I've ditched my zerofit base layer for something lighter with a scruffy jumper over the top. DH kept his layer on and has felt too warm!
Looks like gentle rain will be watering my newly set plants into the border :) 8)
-
Any1 in the North of Scotland feel tremors in the early hours of Monday ? :o
-
It's been nice enough to do lots of gardening. Right now the rain is trying to get in! :o :o Snow 4cast :-\
-
Wet. Muddy. No snow - yet.
-
I think it was foggy earlier, then sun ⛅️ ☀️ now fine drizzle. Again. The fields are sodden so water is pouring onto roads, 1 can't determine if it's a puddle or a pot hole filled with water :o :o. Accidents waiting to happen :-\
Warmer though have had to shed my base layer for something lighter ::)
As soon as I hung thick towels and mats on the line at 11.30 it began to drizzle. The 🌞 is back 8)
-
Mild today. Spring is round the corner (hopefully)
-
Doesn't know whether it wants to rain, snow or ⛅️ ☀️ ::). Not as cold.
-
Seasonally chilly. Bright ⛅️ 🌞. Blue sky.
-
Coldish but bright with lovely blue sky. Makes such a difference after the gloom
-
After 3-4 lovely days, it's drizzling. HARD >:(
-
Biblical. I'm scared now :-\ especially for those living in the Fenland areas. The pumps at St Germans near King's Lynn are reaching workable capacity ..... the Manager did say how many thousands of gallons are being pumped every second ....... I need to have a lookC at the Report from last night. Of course if farmers didn't use such heavy machinery in recent years, fields wouldn't be standing in water with empty dykes >:(
Even parts of our garden is flooded ......... ponds over flowing. I need to get out with a shovel and move some mud! It's not as cold - yet. Frosts 4cast for the morning.
-
Any1 with more than 30 mins to waste, do have a lookC at Welney Wash FB pages - the stupidity of some lorry drivers !!! putting himself, his load and any rescuers at risk: plus the rise of diesel leakage. >:(
-
Still raining >:( :-\
-
Raining.
Floods everywhere!
-
Welney Wash is shut
Chucking rain against our windows :o
-
Constant rain on already saturated ground. Parts of the garden remain as puddles. Lane outside has a steady flow of water off the back fields. Wind seems to have got up a bit now.😠
-
Wind is 4cast :o as is icy start 2morrow.
-
So fed up with this weather, going to browse holidays
-
Sunshine from a blue sky :o
-
and warmth
-
On not as warm here :-\ - down from 15 on Monday to 7 today. A short sharp shower, then dry again.
-
DREEEEKKKKK >:(
Not quite as cold as yesterday but oh, more heavy drizzle :-\
-
Still wet :-\
-
Been awful here with grey mizzley wet and rain all week, but today has had some nice sunshine, though it's gone now. Grateful for it's visit though.
-
Two.5 days of sunshine - warmer. Sky is very grey now :-\
-
Beautiful today.
What a pick me up! 🌞
-
Yep. Sunshine is actually warm :-*
-
Appalling again >:( rain coming down straight :o. Not a bird on the place :'(. So dark we've lights on throughout the house :-\
-
Dreekke and chilly
-
Dull. 13 in the car :o
-
Grey, grim and depressing. SAD lamp and vitamin D day :(
-
This too will pass .
-
Warm yesterday, drizzling now >:(
-
April Showers >:( and I have laundry on the line which would have dried in the blustery wind >:( :( ::)
And it's colder, as 4cast.
-
Dreich here! A good Scottish word - dull and gloomy ;)
-
Yesterday morning was very Spring like, daffs bobbing about in the hedgerows as we drove across country. Rain set in my 4.30 though :-\, continued all night.
Sunny now.
-
11 in the car :o and I've shed 3 layers whilst working outside 8) ;)
-
Raining again. :-\
-
It's been lovely, now it's drizzling. Again! During the afternoon I had to add another layer because the air turned cooler.
-
the news this evening: there mayB a hosepipe ban :o >:( ........ shall I fire up the charabanc ;D
-
Apparently water is going to B piped from Kielder to the South of England via Cambridgeshire - we saw wide blue pipes being laid when we were going across the Counties last week. So eventually there shouldn't be any requirement for hose pipe bans 8)
-
17/18 in the car yesterday, temp has dropped a bit with this blustery wind. Dry thus far.
-
Windy++. Bin lids blown over the garden fortunately the nuts in the dustbin stayed dry.
Last night from 6.45 it POURED >:(
-
It's changing faster than my perimenopause mood swings!
-
Sunshine has appeared. Blue sky. Bins continue to blow over :o
-
April showers since 6.30 a.m. :o with hail, gales ......... we've missed the centre of the storm apparently :-\ :D
It's chilly again. Blue sky now ............
-
Sunshine and showers today.
I sound like Carol Kirkwood on the telly ;D
-
Hail storms again >:(. At least I was able to get a large sheet out, blowing, dried and back in.
Icy winds >:(. Hailing, again :o from a black sky.
-
Two days of bright sunshine. Air still chilly. Blue sky :-*
-
After a chilly, sunny weekend it's drizzled. All day >:(. so fire lit.
-
Not raining :o
Blue sky. White clouds. :-*. Bitterly cold :-\
