Last couple of days have been better, dry, and after a lot of early cloud today its turned out sunny. There is still a nagging on shore NE breeze that has kept it cooler today, but still pleasant. Lunchtime brought 12C with a backing SE wind force 3-4, and partly cloudy. Cloud now gone and sun properly out, its also warmed up a couple more degrees

Looking at MetO figures it looks like 25mm+ rain fell yesterday over a large part of eastern England. I assume we are on course for a wetter than average month again. Today is better, just that the wind is a pain again, making lunchtime ride difficult. Wind S force 5-7, temps 12C and partly cloudy. Everywhere is now looking waterlogged after drying up a bit last week.

Wold Topper I was helping my sister in law move yesterday, fortunately the showers managed to miss Hull while loading and miss Brid while offloading. Based on recent weather it could have been a lot worse. A very heavy shower towards Driffield and a bright rainbow, but couldn't get a pic. Dry in Beverley and at home.

A Face like Thunder Yes today has started with showers, which even had a few wintery bits in earlier according to Mrs Mike57. 5C, and a strong northerly wind this morning. I dont mind cold but this wind and wet just seems never ending this winter. Stove is lit and will be burning most of the day again.

RebsAbbo Yes the noise from overloaded clogged mowers was evident in our village yesterday afternoon. I should have cut ours yesterday, but also had loads of other jobs to do. Needless to say we are back to the same old wet today. Still raining at lunchtime but appears to have stopped now. Cold at 7c. Cycling is off until Thursday due to bike needing repairs, a walk at lunchtime resulted in me getting wet.

A Face like Thunder 'Back edge', , Not how I would describe it, Wetter than yesterday, wind is stronger here than during yesterdays yellow warning, and cold. Wood burner is now in full winter mode, and log box has been refilled. Lunchtime bike ride was severely curtailed, cycling outside the shelter of the village was impossible due to the wind. 7c and NNW force 6-8 wind with stronger gusts during the morning around 9am.

Lunchtime bike ride was dry, but wind was a problem, force 5-7 SW made for a very unpleasant head wind up on to the Wolds which reduced my distance as I was running out of time. Temps were 11C and cloudy skies. Dryness hasn't lasted into the sfternoon however, yet more unwelcome rain, although it has been light so far

Well more rain today, after a fine morning I could see the rain moving in as I was at the furthest point of my daily ride, and got wet on the return leg. Winds were WSW backing WNW force 4-5, temps at 11C, but felt colder in the rain. Looks like quite a bit more rain to come. Autumn, Winter and Spring 2023-24 have to have been one of the worst in my memory which is pretty long, unrelenting rain, wind, and mildness. No proper cold, no fine frosty days.
