Madeleine Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 Yes still the same here, bit sunnier today but still that cold wind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marie H Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 Still that darn chilly wind, and even that the temperature say it’s 14°C, it doesn’t feel like it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madeleine Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 Gradually got warmer over the weekend, although there were a lot of rainclouds but they blew over, meant to get warmer this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marie H Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 The BBC weather forecast for Wednesday is 25°C! It’s 16° today, still not pleasant with the breeze. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madeleine Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 It was quite warm around 9.00, cool in the shade. Yep meant to be mid or maybe even upper 20s tomorrow (depending where you live) then cooling down a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marie H Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 Blimey, it’s hot out there - 26°C in the shade! Lovely to sit in the shade though . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madeleine Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 Went out in the garden at about 9.00 and it was quite warm even in the shade! there was a nice breeze yesterday which helped but when it dropped it was very warm! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madeleine Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 Well the last couple of days the weather has cooled down, it's been very windy and today we had a brief heavy shower with a bit of hail! Hopefully the rest of the holiday weekend won't be so wild. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marie H Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 I hope that the windy weather ceases, as it’s battering the new roses in my garden! They have only just started flowering too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raven Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 Second weekend running for very high winds around me.* I know I live in a different area to where I grew up, but I don't remember the wind being as high as this, as often as this, when I was younger - or even a decade or two ago... *Not me personally, where I live. I don't only eat beans or something... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madeleine Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 My mum has a theory that all those wind farms are causing the winds..... Saturday was also windy and we had a brief downpour with hail for about 10 minutes, then it cleared up but was still very windy. Sunday and yesterday were glorious though, managed to get to a garden centre and it actually felt like a Bank Holiday weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, that could be a rather awkward conversation.... I spend most of the time indoors, as it’s so sunny and breezy, I get sunburn very quickly. 10 minutes outside maximum at the mo. The forecast is for wall to wall sunshine for the next week....looks like a lot of time spending watering the plant pots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madeleine Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 Oh yes, about 30 mins every night watering, I don't mind it though, it's relaxing and gets me moving after a day stuck working at my "desk". bit breezier today so a bit more comfy.

It’s quite therapeutic to water the plants, especially when refill the watering cans from the water butts....makes me fell nice that we’ve kept the rainwater.

Madeleine Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 We haven't had that much rain, not enough to fill a saucer even. Had a brief downpour on Saturday but it soon dried out again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marie H Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 (edited) At last, we have rain again!! Though only light rain at the mo. The forecast is for more rain (in the West Midlands), and I need a lot more precipitation for the garden. P.S. 7.30pm and it's 11 degrees out there, with breeze from the North - and it feels ridiculously cold out there!

Madeleine Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 It's very dull here, thought I felt a few spots of rain before but dry so far, blowing up a bit though. Nice to feel a bit cooler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madeleine Posted June 6, 2020 Share Posted June 6, 2020 Back to cold and wind and rain with bits of sun in between, it's more like April. I had my first door step socialising meeting yesterday, it worked quite well until it started to rain again. but I now have a social life again, sort of. then stopped off at the supermarket on the way home - no queue due to the bad weather - and they actually had some new books in, so for the first time in weeks I physically bought a book, rather than order one online.

Madeleine Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 Saturday was lively, we had rain, thunder and hail and it was pretty cold. Yesterday was a bit warmer but still some heavy showers, although I did manage to get in the garden quite a bit. Today is cold and windy.

Madeleine Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 Some unusual weather on Saturday - it was raining on one side, bright sunshine on the other, we were of course on the rainy side, it was windy as well which didn't help. Then it cleared up for a bit, but rained again quite heavily around 5.30, and there was a bit of thunder as well. yesterday was better, cloudy but sunny too. Managed to spend a lot of time in the garden thankfully. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marie H Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 An hour of thunder in the afternoon yesterday, but only gentle rain. Forecast for thunderstorms for the next 2 - 3 days..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madeleine Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 Pretty much the same here as well. No rain today so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marie H Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 Thunderstorms yesterday, and probably another one this afternoon, by the looks of it. Seems we are having a wet season! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madeleine Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 Same here, it's got very dark and the thunder is rumbling around! It did rain a bit at lunchtime but soon cleared up. Looks like we're in for it now though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madeleine Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 Well the rain's finally arrived, been raining pretty much non stop since about 9.30 last night, had a bit of thunder too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
