    Today the mixture of Sun and clouds got the temperature up to 59f even though there was a reasonable breeze. The skies cleared late in the afternoon and then got cloudy just because I had got the Observatory ready:wallbanging: Right now the clouds have moved in from the West, with the temperature being 47f and a pressure reading of 1008mbs.............and, of course, the Garden Weather Station is forecasting.

      After two days of almost continuous rain the sun was back with us today. :SUNsmile: 10C/50F

      @ARMANDII it looks like we might be going into a long dry spell after next weekend, get your telescope ready. :)

              We've had some rain here earlier this morning and the sky looks quite stormy now. Heavy and thundery showers are forecast for later and the wind is going to be picking up. I've just watched the BBC weather forecast and it's getting colder too. Great! :rolleyespink:

                It reached 66.2F yesterday but is a bit gloomy out there now with the temperature at 48.1F, the wind picking up and extremely overcast.

                  It's very gloomy and very windy now. I've had a few large, empty pots take off down the garden so I've been outside to collect them. It's quite chilly in the wind.

                    I've not seen any forecast of dry weather for the UK, Sheal.:scratch::dunno: The BBC's Weather people are forecasting this typical April weather of showers/rain/hail/thunder/and sunshine right into next week:dunno:

                    Today has been a proper April day with plenty of sunshine, the temperature getting to 50f and then dropping down to 48f for the rest of the afternoon. The breeze wasn't quite a wind but it never stayed at one level and changed intensity all the time, while the clouds kept coming from the West, changing colour and bringing the occasional shower that lasted only a minute or two. Tonight the temperature is 50f, [so it has risen by 2f:doh:], and the pressure reading is 1007mbs with the Garden Weather Station forecasting more rain again.:dunno::coffee:

                      The Jet Stream is showing dry from Monday at the moment, of course all that could change. :)

                      It's been a horrible day here. There's been a strong wind blowing all day and a mixture of heavy cloud, wintry showers and patches of sunshine. I shut myself in the greenhouse and potted on some seedlings. 8C/46F feeling a lot colder. :sad:

                        Heavy rain/hail showers on and off most of the day but when the wind wasn't blowing it felt warm in the sunshine but bitterly cold in it 9'c/48'f

                          Sunny yesterday but a coldish wind. Very sunny this morning, cold and a smell of rain in the air.

                                It's not raining.. honestly, it's *not* raining! [​IMG]

                                It was chilly this morning when I left for work, but now the sun is coming out, and the BBC promises 11 degrees. That'd be nice!
