      Wet start today, but still very muggy. O'night low of 14 degrees, and it's still that just now [almost 8 am] with a predicted high of 16, so much more comfortable. A bit of a breeze too.

      Yesterday was very humid, and a mix of cloud and a little bit of sun with the rain starting at 5pm. The high was 21 degrees. Plenty of outdoor jobs got done, so it was ideal.

                  We've had a spell of decently heavy rain this morning. Squinting at the gauge through the window it looks like about 7 or 8mm (I'll check properly later). It's eased off now but there's a possibility of more in the forecast for this afternoon and tomorrow morning. After that the rainfall probabilities for the rest of the week are in "I'll believe it when I see it" territory.

                    Wet here with intermittent heavy showers and rain that comes in waves as if someone's chucking buckets of it at us. Set to continue a few more days...... I'd better get my wellies on and go and make sure OH opened the polytunnel so the chooks can stay dry when he let them out - very early before disappearing to an inter club golf competition at Coëx.

                      Okay we might not get out today until a bit later, but it's good weather for the garden and there is little watering to be done. Both water barrels are full!

                        Rain overnight with a misty start again this morning. Cloudy but bright since and barely a twitch in the trees. 18C/64F

                          Rain was slow to move away, but its just fairly cloudy now, disappointing 16c
                          7mm of rain mostly overnight.

                            A rather dull sort of day, bit of light rain, light winds and 13 degrees, did a bit of potting on in the greenhouse.

                              Typical the sun has decided to show its face.
                              Often does this these days.
                              Says 20c but the breeze is chilly,
