A snow storm at 6ish this morning at work. :coffee2:
Yes, I saw some of the program....and the slugs :angry4:
greeey and dark day..and it raaaaining again... :BangHead:
Grey, damp, mist and drizzle- almost like summer!
Sat here freezing the heating has gone down, and snow is forecast for later to day with a temp of 1c and a low of -1 with more snow to come on Friday and sat :wave: :coffee2:
The snow missed Torbay - too warm I suppose - but it has been raining since early morning and it's dark and miserable at 3C.
Tricia
We have maybe 1/3 an inch been snowing lightly since about midday we were supposed to get a lot more so hoping i get it tomorrow :)
16c and sunny, not for long though. I've just washed the car
Sun! Sun! Sun! :sunny: Oh, it's just gone. :BangHead:
HOWLING wind here... has been like this for the last week...getting sick and tired of it now... :BangHead:Its bad enough down here in the Vale of Clwyd mate, and we have trees and things to slow it down somewhat. :tongue3: It must be blowing your hair off up there tonight.
Its May next week so things should get better ?
Showers and gale force winds are forecast to day
sun out at this moment, temp is 8c a lot lower than
previous days, no gales as yet
:wave: :coffee2:
Well here in Cornwall i had to scrape ice off my scooters seat, before i could go to work at 6 this morning .The last frost date supposeably was end of march
What a fantastic day! very warm, its 22c at the moment, to hot to work on the allotment, so s*d it, there is all ways to morrow or the day after.
:wave: :coffee2:
Chucking it down again today.
Don't think the boats will run now.I don't think so either if it's anything like it is here. Not something you want to get caught out in.
Looks like it is going to be another grey day here.
The Sun is shining after some rain this morning. :sunny:
Frost doesn't seem to have been as bad on my plot a couple of miles away. Only the Yacon showing droopy leaves in places - but most of the plants seem unscathed.
It stopped raining and I went to the lottie and the Sun was out for a good few hours, clouded over now though. I have a couple of mates living in Claccie Johhny, do you know the bayside dinner along the front where the train goes along. :happy7:sorry for the delayed reply kev yes indeed i do know it and have eaten in there a couple of times its nice next time your around here give me a shout and i will give you a guided tour coys :sunny: :sunny: :sunny: :sunny: :sunny:
It's been a lovely week or so of sunshine...
A bit of a shake to wake up to a wet and very windy morning, leaves strewn across the lawn, very autumny.
.
Strange weather, t shirts one day and winter coat, wooly hat snd gloves todsy, even cat depressed.
Yesterday we had a nice sunrise (woke up quite early), then rain all day, then at around seven the sun came out for half an hour. Weather forecast said dry all day and thunderstorms in the evening - well how wrong was that. :BangHead:bless her shes been sick 6 times during the night so ive sat up with her and today was a day off for her as voting closed the school just gave her some dry toast and fingers crossed she will keep that down and we can have a look down the plot later if she is up for it thanks for your conceren
Cloudy and drizzly now, hope it will dry up. Need better weather as there is a long list of jobs to do and the plants certainly need better weather.
Hope your daughter is better Johhnyco! :wave:
Bloomin' freezing! Two hours on the plot pruning back the grape vines and weeding and my (admittedly bare) hands couldn't take any more - it's definitely not summer any more!well today was a little chilli here on the sunshine coast spent all day at the plot and had a jumper on first time this year so yes winter is on the way
so yes winter is on the way
Tying things down in case they blow away, protecting the broadies against any snow damage, checking the 4 x4 in case we have to go out. But nothing happened, cold yes but calm and sunny. Still better to be prepared. I see they are trying to say there was a bit of overkill on the East Coast preventative measures, but I bet they would be shouting louder if it did go pear shaped and nothing was done.couldnt agree more ace it was very windy here yesterday afternoon went to the plot this morning no damage my anti leaf curl tent was a little disturbed however every thing else was fine i think down the coast at jaywick it came within 2ft of the wall if it had been a north east wind rather than a north westerly it would have breached but better safe than sorry i say anyway its what we pay council tax for and income tax vat and allthe other taxes the uk govement enforce by stealth
do you know any good boat builders?Have a word with Noah
Force 8 winds again. I still say these winds where not as strong until they started giving the storms their own names.
Hi Ya, Well the weather has improved slightly today No rain, sun is shining but with a very stiff lazy wind. It's a lazy wind as it won't go round but straight though you. Had to pack it in after an hour. I am on tablets that don't help. Never mind it's still an improvement.Or as my grandfather would have said
Dare I say it, but I need a drop of rain, getting a bit dusty on the plot. Just overnight mind you.Same for me, please.
Only started here about an hour ago, but we have already lost the road surface. My lad is in Botley, but he said it all had melted by mid-day. Hope your allotments aren't those we see when we walk into Oxford... they seem to be regularly flooded!
Saw those two summers ago when we walked up Port Meadow and back through Jericho, we didn't go to Oxford last Summer for some reason....
