Southeast and East Anglia weather discussion
Donna3397 replied to Blessed Weather's topic in Regional
I have decided to put the washing out early this morning, I’m really not sure how much it will dry or how long it will be out there but it might save a little bit of electricity if it dries on the line before the rain moves in. The wind has got up quite a bit now and it definitely feels like we’ve had a temperature drop. -

It’s been another brilliant day here in Rye, I’m not looking forward to the rain tomorrow AT ALL. We probably need it to be honest but still. I do hope we get a nice spring and summer. -

I’ve spent the day in Hastings with the monsters and it was beautiful, there was a slight breeze but nothing to bad. I’m sad that it’s not going to stay this way. From what the charts suggest it’s going down hill from tomorrow. The charts have shown cold and wet weather for around the 8th/9th and I know that’s a long way off but it doesn’t surprise me JUST IN TIME FOR SPRING BREAK that s going to great if the charts get that spot on. P.S going in to London with the monsters tomorrow anyone have a clue about how warm it will be, BBC tell me 11 and cloudy and the charts and the mad thread say late teens like today. Anyone got a clue???? -

I decided to get out in the garden today, as usual the weather was grey it started to rain but I only felt a drop here and there for an hour or so then all of a sudden we ended up having drizzle which made everything wet including me (how does drizzle get you so wet? It finally brightened up here around 3/4 o’clock and it turned in to a lovely calm evening. We are taking my daughter out for a birthday treat tomorrow so I’m hoping it’s going to stay nice and we can spend the day outside playing. -

You tell how dull the weather is by the fact that nobody has posted all day. It’s just been another cloudy, dull, cold day. My son had football this evening and my hands were freezing by the end. Hoping to see the sun sometime soon -

Nice day today, temperatures up to 11 here in Rye. We have just had hail which was surprisingly quite large. It’s got cloudy here now looks like we’re in for a few more showers. -

It’s been a rough day here, I popped to Hastings and guess what happened to my bubba again, I was even holding on to her it was that strong. My youngest son who is afraid of tithe wind and rain has had a particularly bad day bless him. I’m waiting for the squall line to come through, it could be interesting especially if it stays windy. I’ve just stuck my head out and it’s now spitting so it’s close by. -

Sorry the box won’t clear. I hate this weather, grey wet and windy, I think my little girl has spent more time on her bum than on two feet in the week or so. I have been busy and so haven’t been weather watching as much but mum told me we have another storm front moving on over Friday/Saturday. I’m hoping that this arm air will push in and we will all be wearing flip flops and sunglasses by the Starr of next week. -

Quite a rough evening we have just had a heavy squall go through, my son came screaming down the stairs in a panic he’s frightened of rain so that’s how I knew how heavy it was raining. He’s like my personal weather man. -

I don’t want this weather to go away, it makes you feel better, windows are open children outside playing, you can go out and not have to take jackets. What I struggle with is the fact that it’s just so cold in the mornings and then So hot in the day, I can’t remember such an increase in temperatures during a day. -

Im absolutely loving this hot weather. I took one of the children to school (others are sick) it was a chilly 2 degrees, Im now sitting in the garden and the sun is reakly hot, it is such a complete contrast to this time last year. We live on the river at Rye and the water is bright blue and I know that they might be a silly thing to say but it makes me feel brighter to look at the nice blue glistening water rather than the dull grey we get used to over the winter months. My children have been outside playing in the sun all day. I know we will soon see the rain and its important that we get it but I want this to last a little while longer PLEASE -

I had written a post about three days ago thinking I had sent it turns out I hadn’t at all As many of you are aware it’s half term, I had loads of plans but none have worked out poorly car and very poorly children AGAIN I suppose that the risk you take when you have four children. We haven’t been anywhere really at all but today I have put them out to play for a bit, it’s absolute beautiful out here, itt so warm in the sun if it stays like this I will be happy lady. -

I enjoyed reading all the history about Bromley. As you know I enjoy reading your posts @TomSE12 can I be a honouree member of Bromley? My husband is from there and we spend of time there visiting family. Today I took the kids to Hastings, it was very cloudy most of the time but still quite warm my son decided to wear shorts even after I warned him he might get cold and should change them, it was warm enough for shorts so he won that argument. At around midday the sun came out and it was really nice. We had a game of crazy golf which is right in the sea front and it was still pleasant. When we left the temperature was around 13. My husband is threatening a BBQ for tomorrow. That man would BBQ in snow if I would let him. -

It’s another beautiful day here in Rye, it started of very cold -1 everything was covered by a thick frost and we were totally blocked in by freezing fog, people were driving around with no lights on. it’s all cleared now and it’s a stunning afternoon 12 degrees here now. -

It’s another beautiful day here in Rye. The wind is slightly chilly but nothing to bad, be these days make me feel so much better then th days we get rain and wind. I do like the cold but I have a feeling we might not see to much of that now, it’s not perfect and obviously not set in stone but if it stays like this I will be happy with that too. -

It’s been a lovely day here today, it did have a cold feel to the air but nothing awful, I’ve been out and about in a jumper most of the day. We went out this evening for some dinner and it was a lovely sunset with lots of big dark clouds hanging about, they weren’t rain menacing clouds just those pretty dark clouds we sometimes get . -

Haven’t been on her a few days, me and the bubbas’s have been poorly with a virus. The weather here last night wasn’t as bad as what I thought, we do have good double glazing but can usually hear the bad weather but last night I couldn’t even tell that it was raining till around 22.30. It’s been a lovely dad here today -

this morning I have woken up with the virus my baby daughter has. I’m shaking so much that I could wash my own clothes. With my hand. It’s not nice at all. I was even more moody when I heard the rain. It looks like we are in for a wet and windy few days. ( it is winter I guess and we are british) it doesn’t make it better tho. Very interested in that post earlier from Mr @yamkin who knows what or if anything will come from that. I’m really glad that some of you had some snow even if it was for a little while. Snow is getting less and less nowadays so these snow events are what we need to make memories from . -

Today was one of the most beautiful winter days I’ve seen in a long time very cold and very very sunny, the kids went out to play for a few hours which they haven’t really had much of an opportunity to do over winter I cleaned my car out it was getting to the stage where I couldn’t find the kids any more. I’m looking forward to some warmth but maybe a huge snippet of cold thrown in for good measure. -

I hope your wife gets home safely and she gets the day of tomorrow @TomSE12 she seems like a hard worker and their lucky to have her. After my husband got home last night it kept snowing here in Rye. Anyway at about 12.30 my youngest daughter who has trouble with her lungs woke and had a very bad night and was quite poorly, I was awake through the night and the snow did finally settle around 3am, at 4am I had to ring 111 and they sent out an ambulance for her. The roads were thawing by that point already. The ridge in Hastings was particularly bad but it always is. When we left a few hours ago the ridge was still very bad but drivable. The skill of the Ambulance crew driving on the slippery roads and back lanes is amazing.
