WHAT'S YOUR WEATHER LIKE - 2017

Boy.......have I got wind !!!!

 

Sorry @silu, make a mistake and changed my earlier post...just in case you are baffled as to why you gave me a ' funny'

 

The weather in Ramsgate, Kent is the same as most who have posted. Two rows of Potatoes are flattened, Runner beans have been bashed with the Slugs & Snails having a feast. I'm hoping that the Potato tops recover otherwise I'll have to start digging.....Roll on Summer

 

It hasn't stopped raining all day.....and it's cold. No winds, but a little cold. Suffice to say, no gardening today.

 

Cloudy first thing but quickly became a lovely sunny day.....bit breezy though
Got home to cut grass and inspect for plant damage following yesterday's wind and rain. Only the tallest delphiniums were damaged.......walled coastal garden.....but more spikes are coming.
Picked carrots, spring onions, radishes and lettuce......all the sweetest poss

 

8mm of rain last night and another 12mm this morning, the odd heavy fleeting shower this afternoon but they didn't really add to the rain total that much.

Wind has been the big problem, after the whole winter without a proper storm, then basically a very quiet spring everything is, or was, pretty soft and leafy.
Lots of damaged trees and shrubs, my nanas have been shredded and they were only just getting going.

Off topic, I wasn't around back then, but I'm sure @ARMANDII will remember it.
Wasn't it similar weather in 1944?

 

No, they started it, I have it on good authority, Basil Fawlty told me, ... they invaded Poland.

 

Horrible day 40mph gusts and squally showers, the garden battered.
Temp reached 11c/52'f
Winds supposed to be stronger tomorrow morning but sunny

 

Not a lot better here today but it should start to break around noon tomorrow. Non-stop steady rain since midnight with a fairly strong northerly wind. A chilly 10C/50F.

Back on the Isle of Man T.T.'s practice week (last week) was pretty much a washout and this weeks race week isn't looking good. No change there then!

 

Morning all, sunny and cold, going to be the best day of the week.

 

Still blowing a gale outside but sunny 11'c/52'f
