    Sun and cloud in equal measure - more sun than metcheck would have you believe at present. Cool and breezy but quite warm in the sun. Some heavy showers about but none have come over my house as yet, about 16C.

    Disappointing day herej. Warm er but no sun after drizzle up to lunchtime. Never became that warm near coast. Cloud thinned but remained in place. Quite cool evening. Some heatwave! :/

    Plenty of cloud about today but thin with a little sunshine but nothing in comparison to yesterday. About 17C at best. A mild evening. No sign of the 'sizzling weather' here!

    Somerset has not been affected by the overcast weather and the sun has remained, at least in my back garden, almost uninterrupted - and on Sunday as well. Me and the neighbours have been out in our deckchairs. Currently about 16C - high feathery cirrus and we can see the cloud to the south, but it is missing us here. Very nice day!

    Cool but summery feel at present as plenty of blue skies with fluffy cumulus around. Breezy but strong sunshine. Gasp!

    Three hours later and temperature has dropped to 13C (at 5.30 p.m. ) and sky becoming uniform grey with rain on its way. Hmmph.

    As said before, overnight temperatures are generally higher than in previous years, which skew the mean temperatures to be 'warmer', Also Europe as a while is certainly much warmer and sunnier. It's just us, Ireland, and Denmark who seem to get the short straw. Norway, although often wet, was fed up with rain last year too...

    Sunshine has diminished to minimal amounts and some heavy showers coming through - but they are showers and there are long dry interludes in between and although breezy the temperature is a comfortable 15C rather than the colder days we've had previously. Not fantastic weather, but at present could be worse. Yeovilton Air day is on close by and all the aircraft are coming through so not much disruption, Fine evening last night has helped matters.

    For me today is the first day of summer, so rather early days yet.

    Dry period after heavy rain overnight very brief - by lunchtime heavy rain fell in west Somerset and persisted and became heavier for about two hours around 4.30 - 6.30 p.m. - almost a deluge. Now much lighter rain and brighter now than earlier in the day. I can remember midsummer days just like this in other years! I do live near Glastonbury after all!

    Disappointing day in comparison to yesterday. Decent start but cloud collected by lunchtime and it has been overcast all afternoon, although relatively warm, and rain began spitting at about 6.30 p.m - no sign of the heavy stuff yet, though.
  12. Jon Somerset
    Heavy cloud has now arrived blotting out sun and temp has dropped to 15C. Still dry but ominous signs to the north say not for long. Sigh.
  13. Jon Somerset
    Much milder here today. Currently 17C with only a light breeze. Some rain bearing clouds in the offing but generally much more blue in between and with the slow movement of the clouds we have longer periods of sun.

    I certainly feel better when there is more sun. I like to think I'm a relatively intelligent person, and I work with people who have depression and anxiety - but I know I am affected by the weather. In long periods of dark, cloudy and cool days I have to work hard to fend off mild depression, particularly in the summer. When it is warm, close and sunny I definitely improve in mood. I become more positive and bouncy in heat waves, while others find it oppressive and become upset and grumpy!

    It's deteriorated here rather than improved. Now completely overcast and windy - and raining to boot.
  16. Jon Somerset
    Very windy - some minimal drizzle every now and then. No sun as yet today - a little brightness appearing. Currently registering only 12C. Like late October.
  17. Jon Somerset
    Curiously my peas like this weather and are producing loads of pods for me to chow down in in a couple of weeks. Some friends are also finishing studies and writing essays to hand in this coming week - so for them this weather has been perfect. Some silver linings, I suppose.
  18. Jon Somerset
    A little blue sky around among the cumulus - windy and cool at 13C. Rain threatening nearby.
  19. Jon Somerset
    Thicker cloud and higher breeze has reduced temp to 13C now.
  20. Jon Somerset
    Overcast but high layer of cloud thin enough to let in watery sun allowing temperature to reach 16C. Possibly warmer than expected. At least the day is starting tolerably well.
  21. Jon Somerset
    Thought it was chilly - only 8C now.
  22. Jon Somerset
    Sun has finally arrived at 6.30 - temperature was 13C for most of the afternoon.
  23. Jon Somerset
    I'm fed up as I'm normally heading off to the Med at this time of year (where the weather is great) - but due to a variety of reasons I'm not doing so this year. I was in Holland over the weekend where Sunday was very sunny and bright - and I'm missing that already! Cold and grey - DOH!
  24. Jon Somerset
    Currently registering 15C here but feeling cooler in breeze. Sun did come out earlier but cloud cover now about 95%. I picked the wrong week to take off. No rain at present, but much in the offing!
  25. Jon Somerset
    Thinking more about it I tend to prefer the summer solstice as the start of summer. Warmth builds up in the northern hemisphere so despite the nights shortening there is a lag in the mean temperature. I'm sure that my memory has many more good Septembers than Junes.
