soapdragon Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 Bright and sunny earlier on but, now that the washing machine is just finishing a load of towels on a hot wash ready to go on the line (can't abide wet towels hanging around indoors!) its clouding over! Doh! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Bitterly cold but nice in sheltered spots. The wind has dropped too, but otherwise it's been a mostly beautiful day. We did get a bit of cloud around lunchtime and we even got rained on (thankfully got back to the car in time) in Henley. I may have been visiting a certain quilt shop there! Took hubby with me for the ride - we could see the anvil clouds - thankfully missed us! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soapdragon Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Here we go again; spent today with YS class at The Ashmolean museum in Oxford which was a shame as it was a beautiful, sunny day. Tomorrow morning, when he has forrest school, its forecast to belt down all morning and they will get soaked Grrrrr! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 We've had a day of very changeable weather, but it was very cold all day. At least the rain held off for our fire drill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Terrible weather this morning. Went to visit mum and all down the A303 was a brown river racing along the sides of the road! At times it was so bad visibility was very poor - and yet there are always those who drive without any lights on at all! But the sun came out - still cold - but the blue sky was great to see. A few big clouds built up but looked worse than they were. Did miss some cloud bursts in places though. All dry here since the deluge this morning.

The Dogmother Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Very livid sunrise this morning, and rain followed true to form. Torrential at times, but cleared after lunch for a sunny afternoon, and a beautiful sunset as I walked the dogs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvachicken Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 Not so nice this morning and got pretty wet walking to work, but beautifully sunny now if very windy.

Valkyrie Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 This morning dull, cold and misty - but hey ho it's gorgeous out there! Done lots of weeding. Mainly Hampshire County Council's sycamore saplings. I've filled 2 bucket loads and only done one small raspberry bed (4ft x 4ft). The garden is covered with those blighters. I've a good mind to send them to the council!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groovychook Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 Thought I'd drag this thread back from the depths to announce the most amazing thunderstorm last night! Started at 1.30 am and went on for a couple of hours. Torrential rain to fill the water buts too Got up to watch it so feeling very tired today.

The Dogmother Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 I think we caught the tail end of the one then - not much to shout about here, but very windy, a bit of rain and some thunder a few miles away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjp Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 We had a little bit of rain first thing but the wind's done for that. it's been blowing a gale since mid morning at least it's cooled down a bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daphne Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 Thought I'd drag this thread back from the depths to announce the most amazing thunderstorm last night!Started at 1.30 am and went on for a couple of hours. Torrential rain to fill the water buts too Got up to watch it so feeling very tired today. Â I think we had this on Weds night from 10pm. No rain though, and only lightning. We sat out and marvelled it was so warm and quite spectacular. It was still going 6 hours later! Yesterday was warmer in Sussex and Normandy than it was here Overcast today, rain forecast for tomoz.
