A pretty chilly clear night got down to 3C before cloud arrived and temps rose to 5C, just shows you we aren't in the normal atlantic TM mild spell with temps around 10C at night with mild dew points.

Dry and cloudy; 8.7C...

[The PIT]

A very mild night temps dipping to 5.2C well above average.

Feels like spring out there in a stark contrast to last week.

Anyone notice Carol K's slip this morning. Temps 10C to 11C slightly above normal. A lot above Carol I'm afraid by around 4C.

Cloudy but bright and feeling mild. After a low of 5.7c it's now 7.8c. It's a damn sight easier to get up in the morning when it's milder that's for sure. Amazing what a few extra degrees does!

It has been a frost free 24 hours, the first time since 29 January. A mild cloudy, though dry start to the day, just a trace of rain recorded over the last 24 hours. A dry day followed with bright and sunny spells developing and with a temperature near 11c it felt quite pleasant. Maximum wind gust 26mph, WNW.

[Bottesford]

Gorgeous day here! Plenty of warm sunshine, light winds and mild temperatures - a real spring feeling morning. A very welcome spell of weather this week has been already - hope it continues!

Temp about 8c but can't check as weather station sensors seem to be low on battery. Always happens this time of year after so little light has fallen on their solar panels. Should improve as the sun finally climbs higher into the sky.

[Geordiesnow]

Bright although its not sunny here but feeling rather mild though, i think we had a little bit of light rain last night as the ground is damp.

I'm hoping for a little bit more sunshine this afternoon so i can have my first taste of proper spring.

Mainly dry today although just a little patchy drizzle amounting to nothing.No real wind to speak of. Very overcast all day and feeling quite COLD outside for any length of time despite temps hovering at 9C. A funny feeling mild!

[ribster]

Frosty described this weeks weather in the model thread at the weekend I think, as a 'turgid' week of weather - what an excellent description. Spring? If Spring is like this I shall throw myself off a cliff!
