It doesn't feel at all springlike here! The temperature dropped to 2c overnight, and it still hasn't risen above 5c! What a difference from last week. It's not raining at the moment but it is very grey and miserable  |

Very difficult day - the wind was awful, and we had bursts of heavy rain most of the day. This morning it's still windy, but not as strong. It looks like rain again, too. |

No rain, but it dropped to 1c overnight - ridiculous! Started sunny, got the washing done and it's clouded over, breeze is not too bad so I've pegged it out - fingers crossed it dries before any rain arrives.

Horrible weather continues here rain and wind with the odd spell of sunshine thrown in . The weekly forecast says the weather will feel no warmer than 9c as a high for the whole week.  |

It's been sunny and bright all day but, with a gale force wind, now we have rain and thunder and lightening, I hope it doesn't hit the scaffolding poles.  |

We've had really heavy showers and hailstones and just now I'm sure I saw lightening and heard thunder. I've got the heating on.

Our heating won't get turned off at this rate! The forecast for tomorrow is that it won't get above 5c all day, and it'll be wet. Today has been sunshine, showers, wind, sunshine, showers, wind ... not long ago took this ....  |

That's lovely, Tig. We had a sunny day mostly, but it drizzled a bit and that wind was awful again. So c-c-cold! Today it's drizzling - again - and the sky is grey with no breaks. |

The temperature dropped just below zero overnight - this just isn't on! When am I going to be able to plant stuff out? At this rate I'll have very decorative growhouses instead of a garden The sun appeared and it warmed up quite a bit, it's gone in now and really clouded over, the temperature is back down to 5c! Bah humbug  |

Thermometer says abour 9c here but it feels like 2 or 3 with the wind biting. At least it's dry but we're nearly into summer now and it still feels like winter for goodness sake. |

Someone somewhere heard me and we had lovely sunshine yesterday evening, it felt quite mild when it was on me but freezing in the shade.
This morning is bright and dry with low temps but showers are on the card for later.

You're lucky, then. We had a dismal day yesterday and this morning that wind is back. It isn't raining yet though. |

It just rained and rained and rained from midday yesterday until this morning, in fact it was still tipping down when I got up. The temperature is like November, and although the rain has eased it's still drizzling and the wind is variable, strong gusts at times then a light breeze - all the plants look quite happy though, some have put on an amazing spurt of growth.

Raining here this morning, with a bit of a thunderstorm thrown in for special effects. It's expected to clear up as the day moves along though, with a forecasted high of 24C, which is quite an improvement over the past few days. The temp was well below seasonal with frost warnings over the last two nights/mornings.

We had a reasonable day yesterday - not warm of course, but at least it was gardening weather if I kept my fleece on. Well - today the wind has dropped thank goodness, and it looks promising - so far! |

Post by Tig on May 16, 2013 8:53:13 GMT
It's a bright sunny start here too! The temperature did drop down to zero again overnight but by 8:30am it was back up to 10c, it never reached that at all yesterday. Looking promising  |

This weather is weird really, it is warm - 20-22(23degC but further east 26/27degC. Sun and then clouds, talk of terrible thunderstorms and we are not getting anything - temps at night are low(ish) 7/8degC. I have had to water yet again even though rain is imminent - the weeds have taken over the world, well, chez Rosefriend at least!!!

Today's forecast was for a very cold day with a chance of overnight frost, whereas it has actually been fairly pleasant and quite warm with not a breath of wind so I am hoping that the frost prediction was wrong too.

We had a pleasantly warm day yesterday - up to 14 degrees and mostly sunny. It looks promising today, too! |

A fine day yesterday apart from a brief shower at about 4 p.m. It looks as though it'll be a lovely day today. The sun is out. |

Brightish but chilly today
