However cider and I are close friends

After a stunner of a day yesterday today has been pants with the improvement in the weather painfully slow with rain at times

A day where you see the clear weather in the channel on the satellite images being so close to the coast but it somehow just doesn’t make it. Even now the sun is very hazy. But it’s dry so I’ll take that.

 

[jtay]

Just clearing now. All a bit late in the day, but there you go.

 jtay same here 

[*Stormforce~beka*]

Red ant bit me! I'm in agony!

[Dorsetbred]

A misty ol’ night out there..

[Andy Bown]

 *Stormforce~beka* Hope you’re ok! But don’t talk to me about ants! The blighters have found another route into our house after we blocked 2 tiny holes a year ago! Not seen one indoors for practically 12 months then got home on Saturday and they had somehow snuck into the kitchen!  
 

Today is a hattrick of misty/foggy starts on my side of Warminster. 

[Wiltshireweatherwatcher]

Warm, bright and muggy start but rain is not far off, currently over the Isle of Wight and headed this way.

Got my walk in before it kicks off in the next hour or so. Remains to be seen if that’s the last of the sun we see today.

To sum up the bank holiday weekend weather in one word mixed.

 

[Dorsetbred]

Morning All, to a <QUOTE> "mixed"</QUOTE> day, the overnight mist cleared, the overnight low of 7.3°C at: 02:32 has lifted to 13.4°C, RH84% with light air movement from the NNE.

From Above

On Golden sands, another bank holiday with folks wrapped up to keep warm!

[Dorsetbred]

From the local rag:

The Met Office has issued a yellow weather warning for rain Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole from 12pm until 9pm this bank holiday Monday. 

A spokesperson said: “Following morning rain, thunderstorms and heavy downpours may break out in some places this afternoon and evening.  

OK, so its 10minutes past 12, and nothing, OR am I being unfair

[Summertime Sadness]

 Dorsetbred Don't be dejected, atleast give it til 12:30

[snowdog]

That rain moving from the East has nearly reached me now. Will it actually rain as forecast, or just fizzle out?

[*Stormforce~beka*]

 Andy Bown Yea better today thanks!

[*Stormforce~beka*]

 Summertime SadnessThe sat nav sent it the wrong way that's why its late ...

 snowdog Raining here. Not heavy mind! Just enough to pee you orf!

[dr weather]

Sunny start to the day, but clouding over a little now. 40% thunderstorm risk. Fingers crossed for some 'sferics.

Looking clear across Southern England at the moment.

A slightly heavier spell of rain, but we again are in the gap of the heaviest rain area

[snowdog]

Rain started here now!

[Dorsetbred]

Well that sure as heck cleared the beach!

[jtay]

Just been rained off from removing a load of turf, for a new bed.

It's coming down pretty heavily now. Checking the radar, it looks like we're done for the day now.

[*Stormforce~beka*]

Yea got heavier here now too

[Mapantz]

Looking a meh day for sferics to be honest:

Still on the southside of anything heavy, rainfall wise:

It's quite nice out there at the mo, light rain, not the soaking type, having been out watering where needed.

[Dorsetbred]

Current sferics
