Cheers JP. Great summary as ever.

 

thanks leigh

[Steve C]

I reckon Floatylight should be the volunteer to show us around the Colchester pubs and bars!

 

Dreadful place to go for a pub crawl imho. I know that familiarity breeds contempt, or so they say, but for an unbiased opinion, look at the Good Pub Guide and see how few pubs feature. For a town its size it's lamentable. It should be a good place to visit, with all its history, but it just isn't. Plenty of good options close by though.

hi bb

 

no problem mate

 

at least we can keep the heating off now

 

weather looks ok and we should have the odd storm thrown in as well

 

cannot ask for much more

[Kentspur]

Just need that wind to die down a tad so I can go back down the coast fishing!!

[terryall]

Question for JP. We all await your fax charts but I just wondered how long it takes you to make these forecasts using tonight's at 10.37pm as an example?

[Gary_R_Walker]

Good morning.

[legrandefromage]

trying to work out what it is that I feel, oh yes, 'warm'. Thats the one, warm with some 'warmth' which according to the tasty look east lady, I hadnt felt since october last year. Warmth that is, not tasty look east lady...

[abruzzi spur]

Hello all

It is a beautiful morning in Brighton, blue skies with some misty looking cloud around. Looking out to sea from the flat it looks clear for the time being but the forecast is clear that there is rain on the way later. Been out for a quick dog walk and it is pretty mild and so far not too breezy.

It's the marathon here tomorrow, not that I am here for that (!) and it looks as though it will be quite warm for the runners who will no doubt still wrap themselves in what appears to be bacofoil afterwards.....

Hope all enjoy the weekend

Morning all,

 

Blue sky and warm sunshine here - what a lovely start to the weekend 

[Keraunic]

Mornin each. Lovely blue sky and sun in Ippy. YAY! Everyone is away on Dartmoor so it's just me, a choccy Slobrador and three moggies. Utter bliss!!

I think the seagulls must be affected by the better weather because they are doing very strange things on the roof tops. They appear to be piggy backing each other. Great fun...........

Hope you all have a fabulous week-end whatever you are planning.

Hi everyone, well was glorious sunshine this morning at 7am, went for a shower about half 8, came out and its totally grey gone dark and now I think the rain might be here a little sooner than was expected in my part of the world!

Put a wash on too....ppfffth grrr!

[Methuselah]

Morning all...

 

What a lovely morning: wall-to-wall sunshine, and already up to 10C...

[NO LONGER POSTING]

humm...

 

Tonight's rain... Why is the GFS showing such a dramatic increase in PPN rates?

 

 

 

 

[abruzzi spur]

Clouded over in Brighton, but still quite bright.  Time to head for the Downs, then lunch out somewhere before the rain arrives.

It depends on your age Steve?

The youngsters love Colchester.

The good pub guide is not really up pauls street lol x

I think the amount of tourists that come here,bearing in mind I took in students.

Says different.

I think if you live here you do get used to it.

Yes it has it's crummy bits granted but most places do.

It's a shame the castles closed for a year.

But it's having millions spent on it.which is great.

The younger students I had here loved the bars etc.

[Jan_Bromley]

Good morning all,

 

Did have wall to wall sunshine, but clouds are now appearing.

 

Feels much warmer out there

[Methuselah]

Already 15C, here in The Triangle; it feels bloody marvellous!

[Kent Snow]

A bright and sunny morning although the cloud has now increased. Temperature 12C.

[classylady]

The rain has just arrived after a bright and sunny start........

[Gary_R_Walker]

This is more like it.t

[Timmytour]

Well......back in Royston with the kids this weekend. Went to Hoddesdon this morning and the one remaining remnant of the snow from 21 days ago was still there! One small patch of remaining snow on the side of the road near the cafe on the A10 near Reed. Incredible to have seen snow lay for 21 days, more than half of which were in April!!

Can't see it surviving today however!

[lottiekent]

Up to 12c earlier on the sunshine, back down to 11c now though..gone very dark ahead of the rain!
