        Was blowing a gale (south wind so felt a bit dizzy) and lashing with rain first thing this morning, but now it's calmed down and the sun is shining with around 14ÂșC. Looks like it's going to get worse as the week goes on - snow forecast at 800m and frosty nights.

          Well, it started to rain here during the night and it has been raining without stop since. The temperature was only 39f and the winds were quite fierce and gusting. I decide to have a drive through the country lanes and, despite the incessant rain, they were completely clear with very little water being held in the flelds, which I put down to the fact that it's very sandy around here. The temperature has risen to 40f and the pressure reading is 1011mbs, with my Garden Weather Station forecasting more rain.:coffee::snorky:

                  @David E Peacock and @"M" the weather should start to improve for you from Thursday. :)

                  The frost has cleared from here. Today started with a breeze and a mixture of sunshine and cloud but said breeze died away mid afternoon. Once again I failed to take my camera out with me in the car, it being late afternoon I missed an amazing sunset! :doh:3C/37F

                      Yesterday was no frost but turned out wet and windy.

                      This morning it's 42F/6C, no rain and no wind - and no sun!

                            Well the frost had cleared yesterday but it was back this morning. Another sunny, windless day but chilly at 0C/32F.
