What's your weather - 2016

We need the Jet Stream to move to the North of the UK to get some warmer weather but it seems to have gone into a convoluted Omega shape right around us.

 

It rained consistently throughout the night and hard enough, sometimes to wake me up with the rattle of the rain on the windows. The day brought a continuous army of mid grey heavy cloud from the West, although there was very little breeze the temperature only got up to 50f. At the moment the temperature is 47f and the pressure reading is 1017mbs, with the Garden Weather Station forecasting, for a change, a dry spell for the next 12 hours.............yeah, right!!

 

It has stayed dry all day with a mixture of Sunshine and cloud with a top temperature of 61f even with a fairly strong breeze. The temperature at the moment is 56f, which is probably the warmest evening so far, and the pressure reading is 1007mbs.

 

As usual, Shineyland seems to be getting a different weather pattern to most of the country. We've only had one day of proper rain in the last month with occasional very short spells of light rain.

Two days ago we had a very heavy 15 minutes of a hail storm sandwiched between a very sunny morning and afternoon.

Yesterday started off frosty and remained sunny most of the day with the afternoon reaching 60F. We've had a couple of hours rain during the night but it's now dry(ish) and overcast.

 

Another day of mixed weather with sunshine and clouds with very little breeze and the temperature got up to 60f, which allowed me to sit out on the porch for 10 minutes with a mug of coffee and watch the insects investigating the garden. The skies did go black to the West around 2pm and we lost the sunshine for around half an hour while it tried to rain but the ground barely got wet. Then it went back to sunshine and cloud and the skies are slowly clearing even now. The temperature at the moment is 37f, that's a 16f drop from last night, and the pressure reading is 1007mbs.
