What's your weather - 2016

On the one hand, the plants are growing like mad as they love it, but they aren't flowering as much through lack of sun.

I'm worried what I will find in my Dahlia bed down the allotment this weekend. A week and a half ago they'd been munched to stalks with a few shoots left. I put down organic pellets but the rain will have washed those away quickly *sigh*

Hi JackJJW ,

We've had it glorious for the last 7/8 weeks, even the temperatures haven't fallen below about 22 ( had highs of around 28 a couple if weeks ago ). We were praying for rain like Sheal, and this week all we've had was a couple of scrawny little showers until yesterday.
Today it's back to sunshine and blue skies again ( so far ).

 

Do my eyes deceive me.. I think, yes I'm sure it is... THE SUN IS OUT!!!

Time to change into my gardening clobber.

 

I'm lovely and warm

 

Cloudy but bright today until an hour ago when the rain started. A chilly 14C/57F and the heating is back on this evening.

 

More rain today....we had the heating on last night as it was chilly.

 

Been lovely here all day and so I got some work done in the greenhouse and outside but it is now chucking it down here now.

Never mind Mr Kandy finally got the wallpapering finished this afternoon so all we have to buy is new curtains,lights etc...

 

Rubbish again, mostly cloudy until about 4pm.
Windy and only about 18C.

Just had a look at the met office and I know they dont really have a clue, but no light at the end of the tunnel there for the rest of July.

 

For what its worth I predict a warm end to the summer, so as we go into the Autumn things will settle down and we could get some warm days.

So dont pull the trigger just yet @ARMANDII
Pity the summer has gone by then though.

 

lots of tea and looking through the window/door for the 5 minute mad dash.. showers, windy and not very enjoyable :( same for the next few days apparently

 

Well not a bad morning, sunny and warming up, shows its a bad summer when 20C actually feels warm.
At 2pm the usual dark clouds came up, rain and some thunder, think it moving away now, but its getting to be a real pain in the backside.
Cant get a whole day without rain at sometime, even if its just drizzle.
