Groovychook Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 Lovely yesterday but cloudy and cool this morning. I can see a few bits of blue but it's only 12 deg. Bit of a shock to the system after recent days! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted September 6, 2013 Author Share Posted September 6, 2013 11deg here at 5.30am, REALLY dark and wet, the rain has eased a bit now but it's still pretty dark. Storms due tomorrow apparently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angie Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 The rain here is very heavy downpours, no light showers at all yet, it is so dark by 8pm now , although it is dark too with the rain and it is humid, not pleasant. The trees are losing their leaves, but compared to last year the Farmers have got the harvest in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted September 6, 2013 Author Share Posted September 6, 2013 After being chilly, dark and wet for most of the day, it cheered up a bit late afternoon and the sun came out. It's clear out there now, so will probably be cold tonight. I think the outlook has improved from the earlier forecasts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 Pretty chilly here this evening, the day did improve though, sunny late afternoon and evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ain't Nobody Here Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 Torrential rain last night - at least it's washed all the building site dust off my veg & flowers . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groovychook Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 It stayed sunny and very warm until mid afternoon yesterday when we had a flash of lightening followed by some heavy rain. Sun was back by early evening though. Saw on the local news last night that there was a hail storm in Falmouth yesterday everywhere was blanketed in white- looked utterly bizarre! Sunny start this morning but we've had more rain overnight. It's still mild though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 Cold start here, followed by a warm sunny day, very short shower late afternoon and there has been a chilly wind when the sun has gone in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted September 7, 2013 Author Share Posted September 7, 2013 Same here, not too bad at all and didn't see any of the forecasted rain. Clouding over last time I looked though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 Chucking it down and cold here this morning, not forecast was supposed to be just over cast and cool. Not a good day to have no upstairs windows and the front door open, because this is the first day of having our double glazing done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted September 9, 2013 Author Share Posted September 9, 2013 Vile here too, and very dark this morning. It has brightened a bit and it looks as if the rain has stopped. I have people coming in today to erect some fencing, so I hope it is drier this afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saronne Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 Definite autumnal chill in the air last night and this morning. Lit the woodburner and will probably light again tonite! I don't actually mind this year as we've had a lovely summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted September 10, 2013 Author Share Posted September 10, 2013 I had the stove going last night too as it was chilly. 9deg and sunny this morning, but it has clouded over and there's a distinct chill about the strong breeze.

LolaLayla Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 Sunny but breezy here. There were some dark clouds about but they seem to have gone. It is really hot in the house as the sun is shining through the patio door! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 Cool and sunny first thing, then got very dark at lunchtime, but didn't actually rain. It has been a breezy day, good wash day, been washing curtains to go back up at new windows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redbug Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 I'm at home today but cannot get warm got extra layer on too.....brrrr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted September 11, 2013 Author Share Posted September 11, 2013 It wasn't too bad first thing, but the promised rain has swept in and it's cold and dark. Temp now down to 14deg in the shade outside; it was so cold in my office earlier that I put the heater on for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LolaLayla Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 What a change from yesterday which was lovely. Thank goodness I cut the grass! Today is really wet with gusts of winds that nearly blew the dog over when she went out first thing Certainly a batten down the hatches day.

The Dogmother Posted September 15, 2013 Author Share Posted September 15, 2013 Saturday started damp but cleared, so we went to Stoke Bruerne village at war - a lovely annual festival of the 2nd world war, wheer the whole village (or so it seems) dresses up and there are displays of old vehicles, weapons and just 1940s lifestyle. Sunday has dawned fine, but we're forecast rain by 10am, so am out cleaning out the chooks and splitting logs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charly1979 Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 Oh DM that sounds lovely I would love to go to that one year ! It was cold here yesterday although bright we have rain and wind forecast for today but I was sure we were meant to have that yesterday too, luckily hubby is doing the rugby training with our son whilst I clean the house Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted September 15, 2013 Author Share Posted September 15, 2013 Oh DM that sounds lovely I would love to go to that one year ! Details Stick it in your diary to look out for it next year - we are usually there unless it's raining, so let me know which day you're going. Another one you might like if you're into vintage is the Kop Hill Climb, lots of people dress in period costume for that. We are going on Sunday this year unless it rains.
