WHAT'S YOUR WEATHER LIKE - 2017

For the last couple of weeks we've had weather more typical of summer than spring, but things seem to have settle back to a more seasonal 17-20ºC. It looks like we could have a frost or two this week but no rain which wouldn't go amiss.

 

The sky was clear last night and the temperature had dropped to -1C/30F at midnight. Today has been grey but calm with a high of 9C/48F.

Sunrise 6.00am
Sunset 8.35pm

 

Interesting @Sheal how the sunrise/set is changing, today it was 05.55 and 19.59 here so you are already getting more daylight than us poor old southerners.

 

Now living 300 miles further north than on the Isle of Man @pete I've been comparing the two since I've been here. Both sunset times were (I think) equal on 23rd March and since then we've gained ten minutes more daylight than on the island. Daylight times opening up two minutes every day and three minutes every third day here.

When I was living on the island we had twenty minutes more daylight in June than down south in Essex where I originate from, so it will be interesting to see what happens here by the time we get to midsummer. On the other hand you all fair better down south in the winter months, sunset here around Christmas time was approximately 3.30pm. I'll take more note of it next winter.

I think it's interesting to see the differences and perhaps others here on GC would like to put their times up now and again.

 

Was that the year before last @ARMANDII or 8.15pm.

 

Sorry, I was just winding you up.....as I do from time to time.

 

Was that because of the smog @shiney ?
