The showers this morning must have merged becuase it was pretty much continuous moderate rain until about 11.30am. After this, it dried up and has been a nice day with the cloud slowly melting throughout the day. Clear skies currently and a crystal clear moon (looks like a fullmoon). Felt warm in the sun but actually chilly/cold in the rain. Current temp 3.7C and falling.

After a rather dismal dull start, the day turned out to be really quite good, plenty of sunshine in fact wall to wall sunshine and blue skies for much the afternoon and with little wind about it certainly felt very spring like indeed. Could really feel the warmth of the sun; it was a real pleasure to be out in it at lunchtime - a very useful day all round.

Wonderful moon this evening it was crystal clear and very big, absolutely great. Anyone else notice how big the moon was at dusk, it is still quite big in the sky now- I love nights like this. Turning cold and probably get a frost before midnight, pity the cloud is going to roll in by dawn otherwise a very frosty and lovely start to tomorrow would occur, alas it looks like being on a par with this morning but unfortunately unlike today tomorrow will go downhill rapidly.

More days like today please!

The moon does indeed look really big tonight - a stunning sight! A nice day here overall with plenty of sunshine heating our office up aplenty. This morning was grey & drizzly but overall it's been a nice start to spring.
