My weather station and a few others nearby are getting temperatures of 21°c, dewpoints in around 14-15°c. Could this have any implications on storms further up north? I noticed most models giving dewpoints of 9-12° round here, and the temperatures were underdone aswell.

Wade It's been a beautiful couple of days round here too, highs of 20.1°c the last two days, reached 17.9° already today. Certainly inspires hope for the rest of actual spring, not the sorry imitation we've had for the last couple weeks. No measurable rain since the 29th!

18:00 (30.04.24) A cool morning, with a warm afternoon. Sunny skies with first signs of convection seen at noon, with the sky now dominated by mediocris. Cirriform clouds throughout the day. Dry Current temp: 18.4c Max temp: 20.1c Overnight min: 8.2c Barometer: 994 mb falling gradually Rainfall: 0mm! 5 oktas (Cu hum, Cu med, Ci homogenitus, Ci sjaffa cakesatus)

First 20c of the year for me. Felt a lot warmer in the urban heat island in town; it probably was with the sun being out all day. Also saw some distant lenticular clouds from the M62, now mostly shallow convective clouds. That makes 203 days since my weather station last recorded 20c, feels like the first "Summer" weather in so long.

12:00 (28.04.24) Dull with persistent rain 2-5mm/hr since the early hours. Humid and bitterly cold for the time of year. Current temp: 6.1c Overnight min: 5.6c Rainfall: 18.42mm Barometer: 998 steady Wind:F4 WNW Humidity: 93% 8 Oktas (Ns. praecipitatio , St fractus)

I'm actually quite impressed with how bad the weather is this morning. 17.6mm recorded so far, 5.6c. It has barely dropped below 2mm/hr since 4 a.m, at which point it was warmer than it is now! That makes 76mm so far for April. Whatever happens next week at least we know it'll be better than this (for us in the East, at least).

What a strange day. Got to 0.7° last night and took its sweet time warming up. Fast forward to lunch time and it gets to 11.9°, lovely in the sun, warm relative to what we're used to. It even reached 9 on the UV index. Then by 3pm it's dropped to 6°, and constant rain for the next 4 hours. 12.8mm in total, mostly isolated to my general area. Tipped it down for a time. Probably the humber estuary causing trouble with its convergence, as the wind changed direction to the east. It even caused a funnel cloud in May last year! This crazy weather isn't any good for my plants either, can't wait to get the veggies transplanted but this incoming plume seems short lived.

20:30 (20.04.24) A cold yet sunny morning, becoming more pleasant in the afternoon with cumuliform clouds from 10am onwards, gradually covering the sky. Dry all day Current temp: 8.7c Maximum temp: 13.3c Overnight min: 1.8c Humidity: 72% Rainfall: 0mm Barometer: 1030mb steady 6 Oktas (cu humilis, cu fractus, sc floccus) Wind F1 ENE

20:30 (18.04.24) Morning beginning with a ground frost, thick nebulous cloud for most of the day with persistent light-moderate rain from 15:30. If the sun came out I didn't see it. Chilly throughout the day Current temp: 9.2c Max temp: 11.1c Overnight minimum: 0.9c Rainfall: 8mm Humidity: 92% Barometer: 1015mb falling 8 Oktas (stratocumulus stratiformis, altostratus)

Seen a good few cumulonimbi today, nice whispy capillatus tops and a couple anvils. Also had some graupel/small hail, one at home one at college. Unfortunately there's some stratiform clouds building, was hoping to catch some aurora one or two people did last night in these parts. Max temp 11.1c

20:15 (17.04.24) Cool albeit sunnier than as of late, feeling pleasant in the sun between gusts of wind. Several cumulonimbi spotted throughout the day and a heavy shower with small hail. Temp: 6.9c Max temp: 11.1c Overnight minimum: 2.7c Humidity: 74% Rainfall: 2.4mm Barometer: 1018mb rising Wind: F2 WNW 4 Oktas (Sc, Cu humulis, Cu fractus)

19:15 (15.04.2024): Cold and blustery day with a bitter westerly wind. Unsettled and showery after frontal rain in the morning. Current Temp: 8.5c Max temp: 10.1c Overnight min: 5.2c Rainfall: 5.2mm Humidity: 69% Barometer: 1002 rising steadily 8 Oktas (st fractus, as)

Consistently pleasant, dry throughout the day with plenty of outbreaks of sun. Clouded up now Current temp: 12.9c Max temp: 13.4c Overnight min: 5.5c Humidity: 50% Barometer: 1018mb falling Wind: F3 SW 8 Oktas (sc, cs nebulosus)

It's nice to see bluebells out and about, the woods near me are plastered with them. My grape vine has begun its bud break also, hopefully the colder nights we're looking at won't put it at risk.

It's very interesting how the warm sector of the cyclone to our northwest is affecting the temperatures. It's 14 degrees right now, warmer than it's been in the last 54 hours, and it's 11pm!

Spells of light rain broken up by sunshine and strengthening winds from the west. Clouds clearing up for sunset. Daily high: 11.3c Overnight minimum: 6.9c Rainfall: 2.79mm Barometer: 1,012.19mb rising steeply Current temp: 9.6c Humidity:74% 4 oktas (cu fra, sc flo)

15:30 Sunshine replaced by altostratus covering the sky from the south. Feeling warm. Current temp: 15.4c Humidity: 68% 24hr maximum: 16.5c Overnight minimum: 10.1c Rainfall: 0.41mm Barometer: 1003.5 mb falling 8 oktas (altostratus translucidus, cumulus humilis)

Recorded 19.8c today, just shy of the 20' a few others got. It really didn't feel like it though, with a strong wind from the south, so I'm happy to reserve my first 20' for a more pleasant day

A dull morning with a thick blanket or stratus translucidus. Sunny spells now with winds are picking up Current temp: 19.7C Overnight minimum: 11.8C Overnight rain: 2.5mm Barometer: 994mb decreasing 7 oktas (sc, ci spi, ci ve)

Mostly cloudy but feeling warm, only slightly breezy, after a band of moderate rain in the very early hours Overnight minimum 6.0c current temperature: 14.9c Humidity 75% Rainfall total: 6mm Barometer 997mb, steady over last 6 hours. 7 oktas (cu med, sc flo)

Doncaster storm is an absolute beauty, can hear the thunder and see intracloud to my southeast 20240401_195328.mp4
