    It's chilly but it's dry at the moment. The sun is shining now but there's rain forecast for later this afternoon.

      Hahaha @Sheal you shall remain blameless :smile: .
      Today is not a good day to be gardening. :sad: The sun is shining at the moment but it is very very windy with heavy rain due in an hour or so. A quick dash outside to check all is well will have to suffice :frown: It has become very tedious.
      Ah well, back to sanding down the woodwork :thumbsup::)

        Well surprisingly the Armageddon that I was expecting didn't materialise YET. I think the slight wind must have prevented a severe frost. We've had a bit of snow but my Magnolia Stellata's flowers are still white not a yucky brown. It's brilliant sunshine this morning but extremely cold. Not out of the woods yet, the forecast for our village is -1 for tomorrow overnight and we usually are a couple of degrees below that as the village is at sea level and we're in the hills. Hope all your tender stuff is ok @JackJJW ?

          Yes, all seems to be fine here. Temps dropped to 3 but sunny and warming up again. Tonight is meant to be the worst but we'll see. I think we might be ok :)

              :):):):) It looks even colder in Clapham (or do you pronounce it Claam?) than where I live @JackJJW, unbelievably. I have been on GC quite a lot today. Was meant to be doing loads of stuff in the garden but went on strike as didn't fancy hyperthermia.

                  It's cold and windy even down here with hail showers thrown in as well.
                  At 9am it was 9c, at 2pm it was 6c! It would be ok if it was February!:biggrin:

                        Well getting truly pee'd off with this weather now. Woke up to snow on the ground with a frost. Temps have fluctuated between 5'c and down to 1'c when it started snowing again.

                          Sunshine but cold, cold, cold.

                            A day of 4 Seasons!! We've had sunshine, blue skies, cloud covered skies, rain, sleet, snow, hailstones and thunderstorms [there's a thunderstorm going on right now:doh:]. The temperature has never got above 50f and right now it's 45f with a pressure reading of 1016mbs and, of course, the Garden Weather Station is forecasting rain.:wallbanging::coffee::snork:

                              Not much different here either. The day started fine with sunshine and a chilly breeze, but it went down hill late afternoon with heavy hail showers and thunder rolling around. :doh:The temperature started at 8C/46F and dropped to 4C/39F late this afternoon.
