 jtay Gone cloudy now just as I was on another job contemplating going out. By the time I finished it the sun was gone

[*Stormforce~beka*]

I went out at 7 sun came out, then I got rained on So hid in the shed And potted up sweetcorn

Cheeky visitor on our garage roof this morning. He was scanning for his breakfast for at least 15 minutes. Didn’t see him go though. Not seen a sparrowhawk for ages!

Morning All, a fine dry sunny start to the day as the cloud begins to gather to west, but I think we may just be too far west for the rain that affecting the western coasts. the overnight low of 4.7°C at: 01:22 has risen to 12.1°C, RH77% and a light SW'ly breeze with a few clouds at an altitude of 2,000 ft and scattered clouds at an altitude of 2,500 ft.

Happy Monday, I change in wind direction today so the wind has lost its bite and there was a hazy sun in the sky whilst on my way to work.

[Mapantz]

15.3°C and sunny. A bit windy, but nice to be working in sunshine.

[Wynn D Woo]

A right old blustery day, dry but very cloudy...

[Dorsetbred]

A fine dry and sunny day, the breeze having picked up around lunchtime and this afternoon, but still around 14.0°C.

A rare nice day today with warm sunshine for most of the day. Would have been better without the breeze though as that did make it feel a bit on the cool side at times.

Seems like whenever the sun does come out it’s nearly accompanied by a strong wind, would assume today will be the same. Although to be fair it’s a going downhill kinda day. 

[Dorsetbred]

Morning All, another cracking start, plenty of good sunshine, admittingly its looking like a going hill sort of day, ah well. The overnight low only just managed to hit single digits last with the low of 9.8°C at: 05:16, currently 13.5°C, RH77% and a freshening breeze from the SE.

From Above, we are just on the edge of the cloud 

On Golden sands, the edge of the thicker cloud band visible on this mornings shot

 

[Andy Bown]

Interesting day with the Western frontal cloud coming and going leading to sunny spells and cloudy periods. 
 

Right now it’s windy from the South and mostly sunny which is good to try to lift the temperature for a change. 

[Dorsetbred]

Become hazy sunshine now, but the thicker cloud remains to the west

[Mapantz]

Breezy but warm whilst working in the sunshine. 

16.7°C

Wind is a nuisance.

[*Stormforce~beka*]

 jy Big time 

[*Stormforce~beka*]

Someone's stolen my sun 

[jtay]

 *Stormforce~beka* Yep, got to get through this lot, before it comes back.

 

[*Stormforce~beka*]

 jtay If it comes back

I don't want it!

[jtay]

Looking ahead to tomorrow night's rain and potential storms later on...

It's a funny old track, heading NW.

 

[*Stormforce~beka*]

 jtay So is it rain then storms or thundery rain?

[jtay]

 *Stormforce~beka* Looks like it. Anything flashy would be v early morning. I won't be getting up, that's for sure. 

[*Stormforce~beka*]

I'm thinking likewise. If it's that good it'll wake me 

[AWD]

The South West has really copped a rotten apple today!

Hedging my bets as it looks currently between 01:00 and 03:00, however plenty of time for it to ramp up, fade or just rain, so time to review tomorrow evening. Pity we can't turn the Boscombe webcam to face the IOW, damn.
