[Summer of 95]

Completely overcast now, managed to struggle up to 19C but seems unlikely to go any higher. Last year, the coldest spring for 50 years, had hit 23C by May 7th.

[Bishop Brennan]

Hurrah! We've just passed 20c for the first time in 2014! 

 

Currently 20.2c and climbing.

 

 

Here's a few pictures I took of the sunset at Poole Harbour whilst fishing yesterday, and the orangy full moon, snapped without a tripod too

 

 

Great pics, Mapantz 

 

I keep meaning to ask, is your father better now?

Thanks bud. 

 

He's back home for the time being, but awaiting a heart bypass. He's still suffering from the consequences of the removal of the aneurysm, but he is a lot better than he was. The good weather has helped, he likes sitting by the pond and relaxing.

Another quality day! Blazing sunshine and blue skies currently 18.5℃

 

Only if they're big enough. A bass has to be a legal 36cm or over to keep/eat. I put a bass back if it's under 40cm, the laws aren't as harsh on a most other fish (apart from cod/pollack/mackerel) unfortunately, these laws have come in due to over-trawling by the French and Spanish. It's good to put an undersized fish back, but I've also caught many that may be shorter than the legal length, that easily have a meals worth of meat on them.

Oh right, I see. Damn laws.

Overcast here now also, barely a cloud earlier. Still feeling warm though, touching 20c a little earlier.

[ARTDEMOLE]

[TonyH]

Sunny and pleasantly warm again now.

[Bishop Brennan]

It's completely clouded over here. Feeling very muggy and still.

[Costa Del Fal]

Wall to wall sunshine all day here and 19c. Felt very warm in that strong sun. Amazing day.

I haven't made 20c today... 19.4c    So iv'e check my local 'Met office, W/Station', http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/uk/wm/coleshill_latest_weather.html

Sometimes i think it's my own W/Station that's wrong, but looking at Coleshill , it ain't far wrong

 

Anyway over the next few days ....20c+ easy,easy,easy !!!!

[Andy Bown]

This is the first evening where it has stayed warm until gone 20.00, a proper summery evening still at 18.8c rather than the temperature cooling off as soon as the sun starts to go down.

[J10]

Gloriously sunny all day here today, coastal areas are the place to be in these weather patterns, less "in fill" cloud, sunnier generally but a bit cooler. around 17c at Mumbles, some local Wunderground stations hit 20c.

 

Hopefully Saturday can be similar before the cloud comes in for Sunday.

It was a sunny and warm day. The temperature was lower than inland due to the sea breeze. But, it was still a pleasant day, here.

[Bishop Brennan]

I know it not forecast to happen, but it really does feel like it wants to storm right now. Plenty of brooding dark clouds to the west since early evening, and barely any breeze.

 

Just got the fan on the go for the first time since last autumn, lovely

Another Sunny morning here with clear blue sky's and a little haze in the distance, An over-night low of 7.1c

 

Current Temp 12.2c S/W 4mph

[knocker]

About 3/8 Ci. Temp 10.5C and no wind. Say no more.

[Bishop Brennan]

Sensational morning here. Glorious blue skies, zero breeze.

 

Already 17.4c

[Terminal Moraine]

It's a warm and sunny morning with the temp' already 16.3c after a min' of 10.5c.

The fields are ablaze with Buttercups, Cowslips and Bluebells so what could be better?

Well how about the promise of a severe afternoon thunderstorm? The Met' Office forecast suggested a very slim chance of a heavy shower later today and that's the faint hope I'm clinging to.

[picog]

Looks like another BBQ for this evening.

[Mapantz]

Currently 18℃ on the nose here, only 16℃ in Bournemouth.

[TonyH]

20c by 10am in my garden, stuck at that since.

[William Grimsley]

A few cumulus clouds are developing to the N. We'll just have to see what happens later.
