    Today's forecast is dry all day with sunny spells and a high of 17C.

    It did start off with clear blue skies and bright sunshine but now we have that rare thing here - vertical rain of the heavy kind that soaks you in seconds.

    OH has been out with the neighbour's combo strimmer/mower this am but we have to stop all noisy machines between noon and 2pm so let's hope the rain stops after lunch.

              It was pretty cold overnight I recorded 4c in the greenhouse. The day has been lovely and sunny, hitting 20c. Tonight is due to be cold again.

                Ventured out into the garden with a cuppa after work but it was a tad chilly in the breeze and out of the sunshine so a bit disappointing. Hope it’s a bit warmer tomorrow.

                  We stopped at 28c thankfully so sat out front (shady as East facing) for three hours till 7.30 then came in for dinner, now 23c. Think it's going to be the same all weekend.

                    A dull, cloudy day with a spot or two of rain this afternoon. Oh, mustn't forget the ten minutes of sunshine this evening. :SUNsmile: 13C/55F

                              Cloudy and damp here. O'night low was 10 degrees, and 12 just now [approx. 8.55 am] with a predicted high of around 16 or 17, with a mix of cloud and showers, and the odd blink of sun.

                              Yesterday was fairly dry - just a few showers, and some dark, louring clouds in the afternoon when coming home. Very muggy when there was a little sun, and a high of 15.
