Martin B Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 Very loud thunder and flashes of bright lightening here! I love it when we have a thunderstorm! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 Beautiful, beautiful morning It does feel like Autumn though! - White frosting and sunshine! I had a lovely walk over to check on the sheep. We had the same as Martin yesterday - a couple of heavy storms with thunder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickvic Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 Gorgeous morning, a bit like Lesley. A bit of frost and lots of sunshine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 It remained dry yesterday but we did have a cloudy spell for a couple of hours in the afternoon - the temperature didn't get much over 13 degrees. Then the sun returned. We could see lots of stormy clouds on the horizon, but they never ventured towards us. This morning is beautiful - just about to go out into the garden - hope it's warmer. Ooh just a note - there is a programme on cloud spotting on BBC4 at 9.30 on Sunday. I have the guy's book - very interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Speckled Hen Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 Rained heavily overnight but the morning is bright and sunny and full of birdsong. Yesterday we had an earthquake There was a large bang and the windows shook just like you get when a tractor and trailer rumbles by. I was drying my hair and thought that's just what it was and thought no more about it till I watched the news in the evening. Exciting stuff here "Up North" Ooh just a note - there is a programme on cloud spotting on BBC4 at 9.30 on Sunday. I have the guy's book - very interesting. I love that sort of stuff ... must watch it. Thanks Koojie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted April 29, 2009 Author Share Posted April 29, 2009 I saw those thunder clouds Lesley and Martin, but they didn't make it this far. Lovely evening, thick frost this morning and beautiful now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 Didn't hear about the earthquake at all - all Flu reports, so tend to switch off! It's all those mountains! At the moment we have a few puffy clouds building up. By the way, the cloud man is Gavin Pretor-Pinney and his book is quite easy reading - even the technical parts aren't too bad. Some of it is funny too. I had it for Christmas (the one before last) and is called "The Cloudspotter's Guide", if you are interested. His website is: http://www.cloudappreciatonsociety.org Lots of fabulous pics. Eh? Just a mo - where's the sun gone? Come back . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valkyrie Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 Sorry Claret - I'm afraid those clouds are increasing in size too. Some sun still about though at the moment. Nice and warm when it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valkyrie Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 Yesterday after a big build up of fluffy clouds, they all got much smaller again and we had a very nice afternoon. This morning was grey, but dry - I thought it would be wet when I got up. It's still dry with lots of grey cloud and the sun tries very hard to shine through. Quite warm really, considering. Edited to add 3pm and it's now raining steadily - 2 grumpy fat birds in the greenhouse - er I'm not in there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
