Maxed out at 19.2C here also.

Really is nice, I will miss it when it is gone.

[knocker]

Clear sky with temp 9.2C and a light easterly. Better make the most of the next couple of days I feel. Saturdays  chart but I wouldn't take this as set in stone

[Mapantz]

16.2°C and clear blue skies. 

[knocker]

Very pleasant here with clear skies, temp 14.5C but a bit breezy 20mph.

[Mapantz]

Just a pip under 20C now! The skies have stayed a clear blue all day.

[Lyn-M]

Wall to wall sunshine here again today, maxed out at 20.1°C.  A tad chilly on Chesil this afternoon, but pleasant.  Several fishermen, mapantz, but they didn't seem to be catching much.

Yep, beautiful. Only just lost the sun over the hill.

Your Red Kite just flew over Lyn-m. We don't see them very often here either.

I am beginning to forget what cloud looks like!

I am beginning to forget what cloud looks like!

 

Don't worry you will soon forget what clear skies looks like and what warmth feels like...     

[knocker]

Quite gust here today, up to 45mph, so although 14C doesn't feel that warm.

[Mapantz]

Blue skies once again and 17.7°C - quite windy too.

Enjoy tomorrow, one final day of warm sunshine before the more traditional (used to be) mix of April Showers comes to us all. Personally, I'm not too sure how much oomph they will have and whether mid to late next week doesn't eventually see a return to the overall dry theme for most this region. Cold in the wind no doubt but still some pleasantness about, outside of the rain and showery outbreaks. A shock for Mother Nature but a necessity for farmers and gardeners alike (aside from continuing frosts) given the dryness of late. 

 

Quite pleased with my April prediction in all fairness which was....

 

"April is going to be a progressively warm and dry one methinks, at least in my neck of the woods." predicted on March 30th.

 

Current rainfall total notably down (still time for plenty more of course) at 9.8mm, approximately 20 percent of expected tally.

Mean Temperature of 10.2c (should drop a fair bit lower in coming days) is 1.4c above average when compared to the norm.

 

Anyways, after tomorrow, everything bar the kitchen sink might provide us all with some classic weather watching entertainment.

Some thin high Ci this morning. Temp 8.4C and wind easterly 15mph.

 

Channel low for the weekend?

 

[Andy Bown]

Oh great that is the worst possible fax chart at just 4 days out for our weekend plans!

 

Stratocumulus beginning to break up and burn off, so some sunny spells now after a grey morning so far.

[ARTDEMOLE]

Cloud breaking up giving some good sunny spells. 13.3c.

[Mapantz]

15.2°C and blue skies again.

 

Looking at the charts, it looks as though my area will miss most of the rainfall. Apart from some rain during Friday night/early Saturday morning, the daytime doesn't look too bad. The forecasts back this up as well. Areas slightly further North and West are likely to be less fortunate, though..

 

[Evening thunder]

A cloudy start today which was different, however another lovely sunny afternoon has developed. Temperatures only average though with cooler air off the sea giving a max of 13.2C.

 

You'd think from the uppers of +8C that today could be a lot warmer in places, parts of France are 25C with the same uppers and they are similar to last week when the SE got 25C.

 

 

I am beginning to forget what cloud looks like!

 

It was the same with me until today

 

I had been in Morocco for a week ending last Wednesday, and when I arrived it was just as warm in Egham as it had been in Morocco by the coast.. and ever since I got back it's been sunny (apart from some high/mid level cloud on a couple of days).. so have basically experienced very little cloud for over 2 weeks.

Cloudy with St. Temp 10C and wind WSW 9mph Slight change with the fax charts for the weekend

 

[Mapantz]

12.7°C with a few sunny spells.

[ARTDEMOLE]

Cloudy with some sun filtering through. Misty valley. 16.0c. Breeze light..

[jtay]

Blimey Charlie, it's raining.

[Andy Bown]

Blimey Charlie, it's raining.

You can keep it John, I am enjoying another pleasant and bright, though hazy/breezy, afternoon!

[Evening thunder]

Enough rain to dampen the ground earlier (0.2mm, wow).. but nothing useful, a mostly cloudy day though, not used to the dullness this afternoon.

 

I'm still not convinced we will get much rain here, the showers tomorrow could easily miss and then not much forecast in the reliable timeframe. Just 5.8mm so far this month and 3.4mm needed to beat April 2011 and not be the driest month I've recorded.. I guess it's more likely we will get that by months end but you never know.
