Thanks for the charts John, was hoping the night frosts would disappear from the forecast for this weekend but looking pretty much a certainty now, will be moving tenders plants from greenhouse to conservatory on Friday I guess

hi bjaykent

 

shame but looks that way

 

also hate to say this but keep your eye on end of month

 

could see some fairly chilly temps for a few days (overnight)

 

more on that tomorrow

Morning all, on this very quiet forum.

 

Cloudy here still, but I'm expecting a warm and hazy afternoon.

 

I was expecting Coast to have posted about NYC and uploaded pictures by now.  Maybe a hot air balloon trip was part of his itinerary? - across the Atlantic.

[Floatylight]

Morning all

I have a washing basket of clothes by the back door waiting to go out

Will it get there?

Hoping the sun comes out soon!x

[chilly milly]

Morning Steve, Floaty and everyone!

 

It's grey here too but at least it's mild.

 

I hope we hear from Coast soon too.  I like holiday pics.

[abruzzi spur]

Hello all from a grey and now dry Reigate.  Currently +12.2c.  Breeze seems to be picking up a little, which might blow the cloud away or at least help engineer some gaps for the sun to come through - if that happens then the temperatures should rise quite nicely.

 

It's a bit quiet on here as Steve says!

 

 

AS

 

 

[Guest bjaykent]

Morning all, still waiting for some sunshine today, cloudy and breezy and just under 14c, sure it would warm up nicely with some cloud breaks. Not looking forward to night frosts from Friday night through to Tuesday morning at least it will be dry .

 

 

This is what I want to see today.

I can see the sun...it's coming...it's on the way!

[snow raven]

I can see the sun...it's coming...it's on the way!

I can't - I'm working in a windowless office today   

[Floatylight]

Maybe signs of it starting to get brighter ATM

Hope so I got to go out soon .

I love driving with the windows down and music on .

[MarcB]

Still cloudy, windy and feeling cold out there at the moment, even though the temp is actually 15.5°c.

 

Hoping for a better late afternoon/evening.

[Snowangel-MK]

Afternoon all,

 

Lovely and sunny here...not that I've had time to look out of the window (which unlike snowraven I do have lol)  

 

I wonder why it's so quite on here....could it be lack of exciting weather, Coast not being around or has everyone gone to Maggies funeral ?

 

[Bluebreezer54]

Its fairly mild, but whats with all this wind for the last few days ?!

[snow raven]

Yeah, sorry about that - they had a 2 for the price of 1 offer at the supermarket for baked beans    

[chilly milly]

I can't - I'm working in a windowless office today   

 

It's a pretty pathetic effort.  You're not missing much.

[abruzzi spur]

Quite sunny now in Reigate, 17.4c in the shade according to my weather station.  A raft of circular e-mails has just landed in my inbox so this is definitely a good moment to take a break!

[Jason T]

Hello all. Well after a murky start, Sun came out (lovely), Quite windy today.

that will be the beans

[Snowangel-MK]

Windy here too, someone was having a BBQ over the other side of the park but they are now without a shed and a fence 

 

Temperature has just risen by several degrees over this side of the road.....and that was just watching the fire fighters 

[Bluebreezer54]

^^ Hose yourself down Abi !!

 

It could have been worse, surely this is not the best of places to spark up a BBQ  ?!

 

 

 

 

 

[Ben_Cambs]

Evening all,

 

Sun broke through the cloud during the afternoon to leave a pleasantly warm end to the day, with temperatures up to 17C. Quite windy though with a gust of 44mph earlier.

 

The grass is  much greener due to the warmer temperatures and also due to the rain that we had last week. Tulips have been coming through quite quickly and most of the daffodils are out. Also budding on trees and bushes has become quite noticeable in the past few days.

 

The weekend, in particular Saturday doesn't look too bad weather-wise. Temperatures around 12-14C, but with long sunny spells it should feel pleasantly warm in the sun! Also after tomorrow the wind will begin to die down, which I'm looking forward to!
