Sunday 3rd June - Weather & General Chat

[leehws]

It has been raining here for 24 hours now, with a total so far of 19.8mm. Temperature just 8.8C!

[Cheese Rice]

A cold day here, max of 7.c, hovering around 6.c for most of the day.

[Kent Snow]

10.5C, overcast, slight drizzle, wind from the NE, 1008hPa.

[Methuselah]

Non-stop drizzle, 10C...

[damianslaw]

A cold day here, max of 7.c, hovering around 6.c for most of the day.

7 degrees is certainly a cold maxima for a June day, many a day this winter beat 7 degrees.

Here we maxed out at 10 degrees thanks to no precipitation. Had the rain made it this far, I suspect we would have seen 7/8 degrees at the very best.

Its been a grey dreary day with overcast skies and a cold N wind. Skies are beginning to brighten a little now and tomorrow hopefully should be a much brighter day with some sunny breaks but temps will remain suppressed, the difference with last weekend couldn't be more starked in terms of temps.

[johnholmes]

A thoroughly wet and miserable day here, wind from the east, maximum of 9.5C and so far 15.0mm of rain since 0001 local time

[Methuselah]

A thoroughly dreich day all-in-all. And it does seem that Publius Enigma's dire forecast was spot-on...

[Polar Continental]

There has been continuous light to moderate rain here now for around 20 hours, accompanied by a fresh at times strong and raw east wind. The temperature for the most part has been between 8 and 9c, though briefly hit 10.5c early this afternoon when the sky brightened for a short while. Currently cold and windy with continuous moderate rain. Over 16mm fallen so far. Temperature 6.8c.

[Methuselah]

At last! The drizzle's stopped. It's left trouser-legging it down instead...

The forecast from GFS for today was for 7-8c in South Wales a number of days ago, a big FAIL to me.

With Temps of 15c near Lampeter and 14c here, 6c out is not that accurate.

[Terminal Moraine]

Overcast cold, cloudy and wet all day; need I tell you how I feel about that? I thought not.

If the temperature remains the same until tomorrow morning it will have been the coldest June day on record here.

[Eye to the sky]

It's rained continuously now for 20 hours with rainfall amounts currently at 24mm with the gusty NE wind making it feel distinctly cold.Plenty more rain to this week as well by the look of things!!

[Eskimo]

So when is this hose pipe ban getting lifted?

[Froze were the Days]

Shocking weather for the Jubilee pagent, raining still and temps for most of the day of around 11c - makes me laugh that bookmakers had reasonably low odds of 90 degrees being reached somewhere in the UK over this bank holiday weekend just about a weekend ago - laughable!

[TonyH]

So when is this hose pipe ban getting lifted?

Probably at the end of Summer, unless we happen on a dry late Summer, then it may go on into Autumn.

It's still raining, but it's slowly clearing away to the south now.Temp is 7c.

[Stargazer]

Looks like folks on the south coast got lucky - the Beeb forecast for persistent rain was pretty much spot on here. Cool and overcast with bursts of rain all day, heavy at times. Maximum 14.7, minimum 11.5. Wind light E.

Walked past one street party today - they managed to get a large gazebo up and told me their attendance wasn't bad considering the weather. There was a great photo on our local radio station's Facebook page of one bloke on his own under a brolly standing by his street sign. He looked surprisingly cheerful!

[Derbyshire_snow]

wouldn't surprise me if there was sleet up on the tops only 5c here and 3.8c in Buxton.

[Evening thunder]

A pretty cloudy day with the odd glimpse of sunshine or blue sky and a few brief showers. A short spell of light to moderate rain but with quite large drops this evening. Daytime temps not far from average.

A torrential downpour yesterday evening gave 13.6mm of rain.

I dont think you can get worse days for June than today or colder, maxs of only 9C to 11C in the midlands and northern england, cant remember maxs colder than that around here in June, very wet too with rain heavy at times all day with a cold northeasterly breeze.

Some on here were saying the GFS temps were nonsense for today, yes nonsense in the wrong way that they meant
