Shock..!!!
The weather forecast is correct..
100% light cloud, gentle breeze 21 degrees... All day..
So far, so good.
I've got my Speedos, wellies Panama hat, umbrella, Winter coat and Sunlounger all lined up and ready
The forecast for Herts and Kent was sunshine this morning.
So why were snowflakes falling on me as I put the final few bits and pieces in the Moho first thing - and 1cm of snow on the verges alongside the M20?
Did I inadvertently log on to a Portuguese weather website?
(.....but it's blôōdy good sat here on the clifftop at Folkestone with a couple of like minded moho-ers as I look out across La Manche towards Europe.)
The weather has gradually improved as the afternoon progressed here in Kent and we now have plenty of blue above us, with the temperature falling fairly quickly now the sun has settled behind the cliffs.
The kind folks at Folkestone C&CC site have included a rather nice raised patio for us:
........and, looking towards Dover, a great view of the White Cliffs:
Looks great Colin, keep Annie away from that cliff edge
Left Cheshire in sunshine and pleasant trip down to Shropshire where it continued to shine. Bit breezy and chilly now though .... just great to be out and about in the van
Yesterday..?
Trackkie bottom and Tee shirt until 11.30
Then Speedos, until 8pm.
Heating on at 10pm.
Looks much the same today.
Tomorrow might bring some rain... Allegedly
None of the above, here, Gordon.
Just come inside from being serenaded by an officious Blackbird. A lone Peregrine Falcon flew over and shut him up.
Medium/ fast rain forecast for tomorrow, early doors.
Cloudy, calm, 15 degrees..
No rain arrived, wrongly forecast for overnight.
It looks gloomy and we expect rain at any time..
The Seaweed Fondlers predict drizzle, this afternoon
-2 degrees but wall to wall sunshine again. The van will get to move for the first time in months on a short trip to the garage to investigate a very slow puncture. Exciting times
The sun's well and truly up here in Kent with just a few thin clouds in an otherwise beautiful skyscape.
The wind has turned from westerly to north easterly, bringing air from above the North Sea. Not warm air at this time of the year, but the sun's trying hard to make up for what the North Sea lacks.
The breeze just needs to turn a little more easterly to blow along the beach and it'll be a bit of exercise hanging onto kites for me.
Well, one forecast says 19c cloudy but outside is 21c sunny! We must have our own microclimate separate from the forecasters...one or two clouds around so maybe it will become right later?
