Way better than forecast. That high is hanging on for dear life today. Never the less, copious amounts of strong mid-spring sunshine, a light breeze & temps around average. A welcome day after yesterday.

Here in South Manchester it was mainly cloudy all morning.  A cold breeze too.  Spent 5 hours jet-washing the patio.  I had wellies on but my feet were freezing.  Typically the sun came out as I was packing everything away........

Probably more cloud than sun here in the end; Especially this afternoon when sun has been at a premium. A cold wind has sprung up again. Not brilliant but okay.

 moochops   Yes, I've managed a few hours out tidying up outside, been moss scraping, it's all over everything, ornaments, tubs, sides of walls.  Need a good back rub now.  4 days now April has produced a dry day that is usable.  Brightness came late afternoon.

Pink moon tonight, named by N Americans, pink because of a wild pink flower called phlox covering  the ground, indicative that spring has sprung.

Not just me then.  That moss is everywhere.  Tough stuff too.  

 Can't help you with the back rub, sorry 🙂

It turned out okay in the end, still cool & breezy with some light showers across the Eastern Moors when I was having a short wander around the Bronze-Age relics at Barbrook but this Western side of the Peak District has gotten more of the sunshine for the day.

Cloudy and glimpses of sun this morning… cloudier in poynton and Cheadle Hulme this lunchtime but sunny ☀️ since 3pm when we got back home… even being away Friday to yesterday can noticeably see the amount of growth in plant pots and vegetation over last four days… 

chilly mornings and felt warmer in the sunshine today despite the breeze…  is it actually going to stay dry until Sunday??? ☀️☀️☀️

 Rush2019 Thought it was just us covered in moss!  Never seen so much.   Anything that hasn't moved has got thickly coated by this spring.

Grand dry day.   Swallows back chattering excitedly on electric wires.  Theres's plenty of insects already due to the wetness.  I fear a plague of midges this year.

0.6 mm rain over night from a little feature in the early hours. WRF had been showing that for awhile. It's done well this year with the mesoscale.

Not a bad day but a lot of cloud still. Sunny intervals  rather at a premium again especially this afternoon.

Max 11.7°C.

A decent couple of days here after the damp weather on Monday. Depressed temperatures for the time of year, but pleasant enough in sunny breaks, reached 11.6C today.

A lovely day although still a nagging cool feel to things.

at least it’s dry though so probably worth cutting the grass before things no doubt deteriorate towards the weekend.

Lovely day, lots of sunshine.  Had another walk, canal beautiful, made a brew by some classic cars , could feel the warmth of the sun tingling my face, UV levels increasing.  A pleasant evening ahead here.

Cut the grass on Sunday, cut it again today although with the blade set a notch lower and I’ve took as much off now as I did last time around.

at least it looks more like a lawn and less like a upland meadow now but the sooner it dries out and growth slows down the easier it gets.

 iand61Believe it or not, I cut my grass last on 30th March which was incredibly early in these parts but it was so warm then and grass sprouting! Now today, currently -2.4 c with a deep covering of snow for the past 4/5 days. Forecast to warm up over the coming weekend.
