Locking Bar Eglu Classic

[chickencam]

Overcast and muggy again here for most of the day with a brief bright spell just after lunch.

[Goosey Lucy]

My BBC Weather App has just informed me that we have exactly 12 hours of night tonight. So from now for quite a while there's less daylight than night.

[The Dogmother]

BUM!

[chickencam]

Not a nice thought, I was unhappy to see how dark it was at 6.30am today, not long until getting up in pitch darkness is upon me again.

[Daphne]

RAIN 1st time we've woken to rain since May. But still forecast to get to 71 today. Tomorrow is another story - heavy rain and storms and cool.

[The Dogmother]

12deg this morning, breezy and a bit overcast.

[soapdragon]

A definite nip in the air and getting dark so early; will be horrible when the clocks go back

[redbug]

I agree !!!

[The Dogmother]

10 deg this morning, dark but clear.

[Purplemaniacs]

A lovely morning here. Very pretty as the sun shone through the mist that filled the little valley in the field at the back of us.

[The Dogmother]

Gorgeous here now too; 12.8deg and sunny with a light breeze.

[soapdragon]

Beautifully bright in South Oxfordshire but a showery weekend promised by the Met office - thanks chaps!

[The Dogmother]

Lovely here too, but not as warm as it has been. Air pressure remaining high for the moment.

[chickencam]

We had a much brighter day here too.

[Egluntyne]

It has been glorious here today, but is really chilly now.

[Groovychook]

Been away for a few days but came back last night to very heavy showers.

 

Still so mild here and the grass is growing at a rapid rate. I'm going to have to get the mower out as soon as everywhere dries out enough.

Looks a bit damp and murky this morning.

[LolaLayla]

So hot yesterday. It was actually 22 degrees Had a lovely beach walk as there was little wind. Today there was an autumnal chill in the morning but is sunny again, not so hot (19) and breezier. Just loving this last gasp of summer

[The Dogmother]

Cool this morning, but clear blue skies later on and it was actually HOT!

[The Dogmother]

After a promising start, it got very dark and remains overcast, looks like rain.

[Groovychook]

Sunny one minute- dark and overcast the next.

Still so warm!

[Purplemaniacs]

A lovely day here.

We had a gorgeous day yesterday, spend most of it tidying up the garden. It started ok today but then turned dark and dreary and we have had some light rain this evening.

[The Dogmother]

Dull and warm start yesterday, pouring with rain by 8.230am. Wet and dark until lunchtime when the sun came through, then dull again.

 

Today was really warm first thing at 14deg, dark and misty, now 15.8deg outside and still dull/misty. We are predicted heavy rain and flood warnings are all ready in place. I understand that the SW will take the brunt of it though.

[Groovychook]

Blimey, I've just taken the brunt of it ... knew it was a bit risky to be attending to the chooks with the sky looking as threatening as it did. Just got drenched to the skin. Absolutely torrential rain about half an hour ago which has calmed down slightly but still very heavy.

 

There's a river of muddy water rushing down the track- our drain is coping at the moment. I'm hoping that it will continue to ease off!

 

Been murky and showery for the past few days. Still very mild...

[The Dogmother]

17deg here this evening and I'm sat in a t shirt, no heating on of course.

 

The rain this morning gave way to sun after lunch, then more drear in the afternoon.
