    That cool NE wind is a blowin ' again. The garden looks dry and fed up with the constant buffeting. Really the wind needs to shift to the West and bring rain ,

      Cloudy 13c at the moment. Still getting cold nights down to 6c which is holding everything back. Sun has poked through as I type, 21c later.

            @Victoria I saw the forecast on TV for southern Europe and it showed the worst of the weather for the week being Greece, Italy and Spain and spilling over to Portugal. I quickly looked at a couple of forecast sites and they showed something similar :noidea:

            I picked one at random

              Ah yes, Central and north. I bet the few drops shown way down South won't materialise.

                11c dull with cold wind, feels like a November day.

                    It keeps trying to brighten up but its not making it today the NE wind looks like it will be with us well into June and there appears to be no let up, its just scraping 16c but feels colder in the wind.
                    Even the greenhouse vents have not bothered to open today, and good job too.

                              Another stunning sunny and cloudless day with a slight breeze. It looks like it's going to stay for the next week too. Best temperature so far this year at 24C/75F.

                              I dragged the hose up the garden yesterday, the ground is parched and plants are suffering, not having had any proper rain for a month now.

                                Sometimes I get the impression when reading your weather conditions that we must live in different countries (not counties!)! Some of you have had a cold cloudy day, like we have had today, others seem to have sunshine from sun up to sun down! :roflol:
