  Everywhere thoroughly watered.

Very important now we're beginning another dry spell. 31mm here.

Much slower clearance than anticipated with it only beginning to brighten up now after a very dull morning with occasional invizdriz.

Only 13.9c too.

[knocker]

Cloud cleared, apart from small Cu, so turning into a bright sunny day.

Totalled 20.7mm since it started raining yesterday and it looks like that'll be it for a while. Still cloudy at the moment but looking a bit brighter that earlier and a bit warmer than yesterday. 18.2°C.

That band of rain last night was pretty hefty, roads flooded etc. 11mm falling in around an hour. 25.8mm in under 24 hours. Sun came out this afternoon, temp maxed at 22.6°C

Currently 13.7°C

A pleasant morning albeit a fair bit of cloud building with Sc, Cu and some Ci. Temp 12C and no wind.

After an overcast morning we peaked at 21.8°C at: 14:26.

Pleasant afternoon out there now..

Layer of Sc. Temp 14C and breezy from the NNW

On Thursday last week the weekend was forecast to be cloudy and cooler yet ended up hot and quite sunny.

On Thursday 2 days ago this weekend looked set to be mostly fine, dry and humid. Here we are approaching midday Saturday and it's cool, dull, there has been drizzle and there's a band of rain nearing from the W/NW!!

Which has duly arrived here with drizzle. Maybe this incoming rain band (which was supposed to dissipate) is that forecast for tonight so perhaps an earlier clearance and a better day tomorrow. At least 1 out of 2 weekend days with good weather would be nice.

[Mapantz]

Sunny spells here, but breezy at times. 20.6°C

[Dorsetbred]

Thought I'd sit outside under the "tent" and watch the shower go by. Hah, nothing happened, oh well, wonders if the "tent" will be standing by next weekend with the incoming breeze. It's one of those bit of everything and nothing days...

Reached 21.4°C at: 13:18..

More to the east along the coast for showers heading in from the brstl chunnel..

Not too bad of a day really.. ok it has been mostly cloudy, but it has been bright, and some sunny spells. I've finally finished off my pond, after a month of work.  Very satisfying.

I must drop by sometime and view this pets delight of an outside environment...Sounds cool place to be. Do you let people dangle their feet for the fish to gnaw at the rough edges?
