Yesterday was really warm and sunny although it came over cloudy towards the late afternoon. Went to London for the evening and it was very close and muggy. This morning it is pleasant outside but damp and has a thick blanket of cloud. We had a small thunderstorm at 6 am with a couple of rumbles - big flashes and rumbles at 20 past 6 and then faded very quickly. Smells nice outside - I have a viburnum that is heavily scented and that is really hanging around the patio, hmmmmmm.

Easter weekend was gorgeous, and having just returned from Mallorca I can say it was warmer than there.

Yesterday was still and overcast and it has rained overnight.

Last week in Malta was lovely, with just one day of bad weather when we woke to gales and lashing rain on the last day.

 

Lovely here on Monday and managed to get all the washing dry outside, plus a walk across Edgehill in the afternoon.

 

Not bad here on Tuesday either, but woke to distant thunder this morning. Disappointingly it didn't come much closer

Lovely, warm day

[Chickvic]

Woken up at 8am to a thunderstorm been quite cold and miserable. Brightened up a bit this afternoon/evening.

[The Dogmother]

It was lovely and balmy after lunchtime, but the clouds soon gathered again and I won't be surprised if we get more rain or thunder.

[Egluntyne]

Foggy here till around 11am, then not a bad day.

[chelsea]

very strange....they forecast torrential rain here yesterday & today and so far have not seen a drop!

[Egluntyne]

Foggy again here.

[Cinnamon]

Thunder storms here yesterday early morning & late last night.

 

Not suprised as it was really muggy & unpleasant all day.

 

Looks cooler & cloudier here today,although the sun is trying to peek through.

[The Dogmother]

Rain overnight, drizzling now. Cloudy and muggy; we need a storm to clear the air!

[Chickvic]

Cloudy and grey, just starting to drizzle

I have some plane that seems to think it is the Red Baron soaring in the sky above me at the moment doing somersaults & dives...

[chickencam]

We have heavy rain forecast here by lunchtime but so far the day has got brighter and brighter

 

I have to go to town later so I hope it doesn't rain.

 

We had a brief torrential shower with thunder at about 7pm but it only lasted about 5 minutes.

[Chickvic]

Really raining now!

[The Dogmother]

Same here, and dark too - the traffic has headlights on and I'm sitting here wondering whether I ought to go home and put the chooks in the run

Hello

 

Some of you may have picked up from an earlier thead that in January I handed in my notice and 6 weeks ago I left my job for a change of pace.

 

Today is the first day that I haven't been out in the garden planting up the beds or in the potting shed getting more seeds started.

 

After last night's single clap of thunder we now have steady rain and it's cold with it.

 

Decided to bake Fourbecameeight's Yogurt Cake from the wiki page this morning, so I've stuck the heating back on, cut myself a large slice and mashed another cup of Lady Grey tea.

 

The the weather this afternoon looks like more of the same so I intend to make the most of it and snuggle up in a comfy chair with my cross stitch (rhode island red).

 

If the weekend's weather is to believed, there will be plenty of time then to catch up with the jobs in the garden, so I can afford to take it easy this afternoon

 

Kind regards,

 

Christine

It's been nice here - although at the moment some really big storm clouds loomed up on the horizon, but I think somewhere else has had the worst. Still dry but cloudy - lots of cotton wool clouds with some blue in between the black icky ones.

[Groovychook]

Lovely on Tuesday

Torrential rain on Wednesday

Lovely yesterday & sunny this morning!

 

Phew! Caught up!!

[Lesley]

Easter was brilliant - especially Monday.....downhill ever since....

 

Evil, vile, cold and wet now Yesterday was more like Autumn and we can't let our new lambs out yet

 

The weekend is looking better.......and so does the beginning of the week - fingers crossed.

[Egluntyne]

Thick Fog here. *tuts*

[Valkyrie]

We didn't get any rain yesterday after all - it looked so iffy out the back that I quickly did some planting and ran back indoors - but it stayed way over the back just looking ominous. Most storms tend to lie across the back there - I think they follow the Thames so roll along the valley. Because we are up high, the storms seem to go around us rather than directly overhead - very rare to have one hanging around.

We don't escape the rain though - which we have this morning - lots of drizzle.

[The Dogmother]

Same as Lesley here, dull and dreary, dark too Forecast says that it'll clear up this afternoon - I don't hold out much hope at the moment.

[Lesley]

....and it's supposed to be dry for the Farmers' Market tomorrow as well Clare.............ooh look! some pigs just flew over......
