I think today was the most perfect pv (solar) output curve I have ever seen.

It was bound to happen as soon as they started saying driest winter and probable summer drought/hosepipe ban at the end of Feb. People think weather patterns are random but we have too often seen above average rainfall after the media starts talking about drought for it to simply be a coincidence.

MY DDs football team has managed 4 football matches since the start of December due to weather interruptions and no doubt this Saturday will be a water-logged pitch again and then it is a 2 week break for Easter and then we are in to the final few matches of the season. Last year she was golden boot for her age group, this year she is likely to miss out just because she is half a dozen matches down.

Do you remember before 1.2 degrees when we used to say you were more likely to see snow at Easter than xmas....

IT may not be the weather of choice but we will all appreciate the rainfall later in the year

2018 had a very dull March and April - and then a very sunny May, June and July.....

BBC Website Weather hourly is showing temps fairly stable at 7C till 5pm then dropping 5 degrees to 2 degrees at 6pm - never seen anything similar before.

Apart from the sleet forecast for tomorrow morning and -5 for tomorrow night....

So coming up we have: Notably cold March night tonight Cold drizzle tomorrow evening Warm drizzle Sunday Windstorm Monday Another sleet fest Tuesday night Followed by cold Easterly nastiness for the foreseeable I guess it is interesting weather but would prefer spring warmth tbh

BBC News website, top story is currently about some over entitled, overpaid presenter who thinks he is above the rules. Snow and Ice live is in right hand 'other stories not important enough to warrant a photo' column. Yesterday snow and ice was the main top left most space on the pave story.

I love the way ess than an inch in and around London made it the top story on the BBC News website whereas much more today but elsewhere in the country and it is a footnote....

So tomorrow afternoon for another sleet/slush fest and then possibly more on Tuesday night - oh and some noticeable winds tomorrow and Sunday into Monday. I guess it is not dull even though it feels that way.

Would have preferred to watch the snow fall but had to watch the match and couldn't see a lot as so much went onto my glasses...
