Talisman Posted May 7, 2018 Posted May 7, 2018 If it is then the UK is having a prolonged hot flush. It is just as warm here as it was in Montenegro - 25 degrees when I left at 11.30 this morning and almost the same when I landed back home about 3 hours later. It feels warmer here though as the Med has a dryer type of heat which is far more pleasant and easier to walk around in. Quote
Madeleine Posted May 7, 2018 Posted May 7, 2018 Great description Virginia and I sort of agree with you! A lovely hot flush with some glorious sunshine, a bit too warm to do anything much except potter about in the garden and take out our guest dog in the morning to the local park which is vey shady thanks to lots of horse chestnut trees. A bit breezier today and I managed to sit outside for a while. I have tomorrow off work too which is great, especially as I think it's meant to get cooler after Wednesday. Quote
Madeleine Posted May 8, 2018 Posted May 8, 2018 It was hot this morning but clouded over and got quite windy, so cooler now but still quite pleasant. Quote
Athena Posted May 10, 2018 Posted May 10, 2018 17 °C maximum, mostly cloudy and sometimes rainy. Quote
Madeleine Posted May 10, 2018 Posted May 10, 2018 Looks like it rained last night, cooler and cloudier today but not too bad. Quote
Virginia Posted May 12, 2018 Author Posted May 12, 2018 Its been a milk curdling, egg frying triple digit in my neck of the wood. I am officially fagged and its only 1650. I've been out all day and I can promise you I will not leave my block (for an early morning walk tomorrow) for the next two days. The heat promises to intensify and I'm not in the mood to flat line.

Madeleine Posted May 13, 2018 Posted May 13, 2018 Much cooler yesterday and rained nearly all day, nicer today, meant to have another brief heatwave mid week. Quote
Onion Budgie Posted May 14, 2018 Posted May 14, 2018 Overcast, but still fairly warm. The sun's been in hiding for the past few days. Quote
Virginia Posted May 14, 2018 Author Posted May 14, 2018 Very hot and sunny. Hoping to sweat off a few pounds today! Quote
Madeleine Posted May 16, 2018 Posted May 16, 2018 Can't believe how much colder it is today! Dull too. Quote
Virginia Posted May 16, 2018 Author Posted May 16, 2018 We've got a week of clouds with high chances of rain and thunderstorms. We really could use the rain. Its been really dry. Quote
itsmeagain Posted May 17, 2018 Posted May 17, 2018 Cool, warm, windy. All combinations really. And crucially, dry. Quote
Madeleine Posted May 19, 2018 Posted May 19, 2018 Lovely and sunny today, the cold wind has dropped but it wasn't too hot. finally got round to buying some tomato plants! Quote
Madeleine Posted May 21, 2018 Posted May 21, 2018 It's cooled down a bit today, not bad but quite dull and not as warm as they said it would be! Quote
Madeleine Posted May 24, 2018 Posted May 24, 2018 A real change in the weather, chilly and drizzly. Yesterday was sunny but still that cold wind which kept the warmth off quite a bit. Quote
bookmonkey Posted May 24, 2018 Posted May 24, 2018 Awful. We've had extremely heavy rain and thunderstorms all week, mostly at night, so no sleep. There's also been heavy, early snow and more on the way. We're too low where I live for the snow, but it's definitely been cold enough. Quote
Madeleine Posted May 25, 2018 Posted May 25, 2018 It's been quite muggy here, and we've got hot temps forecast but with possible thunderstorms as well, so looks like it could be a mixed weekend for the Bank Holiday. Rained again overnight and not that warm at the moment. Quote
chesilbeach Posted May 25, 2018 Posted May 25, 2018 Raining but warm-ish, so no coat but an umbrella needed. I think it's forecast for thunderstorms all weekend, so could be a noisy weekend! Quote
Madeleine Posted May 25, 2018 Posted May 25, 2018 Yep it rained overnight, quite dull and muggy now, we also have a mix of storms and sun forecast so could be interesting! Quote
