The Midlands Regional Discussion 3rd August 2013>

[CongletonHeat]

Mostly cloudy here with bits of sun occasionally, not good enough.

[conor123]

Been generally cloudy here to, not had a spell of sun longer than about a minute, in fact fairly threatening skies at the mo but no rain as of yet, tomorrow seems more promising though for longer spells of sun 'hopefully'.

[PolarWarsaw]

Another perfect weather day. Enough sun to make it T-shirt weather, a nice breeze some cloud to keep it comfy. 

 

Best form of weather.

[Cheshire Freeze]

Think I'm beginning to like it as opposed to say +30C blazing sun? All of course dependent on what you're doing

Warmer still today, humidity relatively low too. Storm chances..oh well.

 

I'm still waiting for a storm lol!

[CongletonHeat]

I'm still waiting for a storm lol!

Really? had about 3 here.

[Cheshire Freeze]

Really? had about 3 here.

 

Yep, really! I know you've had a few....I've been under the overhanging anvils a few times!

[Summer of 95]

Starting to cloud over already, so much for that front not arriving till tonight!

[CongletonHeat]

Same again but warmer than yesterday.

[conor123]

Lovely long sunny spells now after a generally cloudy morning, 21.3c

[Costa Del Fal]

Lovely day, lots of sunshine throughout the day, morning and afternoon unlike the above. 24c our max. 

[conor123]

Warm and pleasant today, again a fair bit of cloud but with much more sun reached 22.5c, stayed warm this evening and increasingly humid now.

[Staffordshire]

Not a bad day here today, was nicer yesterday as there was more sun

[matt_in_dudley]

It's been a really lovely day here in Dudley (so weird saying that!) and also in Leamington Spa where i was first half of the day. Nice warm sunshine. I even cut both the lawns for the first time since i moved and had dinner on the patio. Excellent. Off to Birmingham and Worcester tomorrow...sigh!

[conor123]

A real autumnal cold day with no sunshine since about 9am today, 16.9c, aside from yesterday this week has been a disappointing return to form (slate grey skies) whilst the majority of the rest of the region has had good spells of sunshine (Pershore being 21.7c at the mo an example of this).

[Staffordshire]

I agree with conor, today felt very autumunal, especially the evening.

[Costa Del Fal]

Again, no autumnal feel here today. Yes it was cloudier than recent days but there is too much over hype to go into autumn mode on here just because the sun has gone behind some clouds. Still some nice spells of sunshine as usual here and up to 20c. You lot seriously need to move. :lol:

Same again zzzzzzzzzzzzz

[conor123]

Overcast yet again today, and chilly again at 16.3c with that westerly wind, really has felt like mid-late September bar Thursday, really hoping for some pleasant weather for the bank holiday this year.

[TonyH]

Got to laugh, I look in here each day and it's the same, Conor complaining it's slate grey skies and blizzards pleased it's so warm and sunny!

Lovely again in West Wales nice since Tuesday!

[conor123]

Well some signs of sunshine at least this afternoon now thank goodness, could do with another 4-5c though at least, 17.2c at the mo.

Certainly no exaggerations on the gloom though, just take a look at Shawbury for proof.

Oh !!!! hang on things are looking up

[TonyH]

Seems Shawbury has had limited subshine this week, however a couple of days with 6 hours is pleasantly reasonable:

Coventry has fared better with 8 or 9 hours on 3 days last week:
