Weather Report..................

[Biggarmac]

It has been raining all day here in "the National Forest". Conkers CCC site. Its a cloudburst from a thunderstorm now. Amazing how water finds a way in, probably through the fixing for the awning. Towels deployed.

I'm in Altrincham.
Enough said...
Why should I add to the misery.

After a rainy start it’s been lovely on the IOM today, plenty of cloud turning to fog as it drifts out to sea but pleasantly mild.
Just one short sharp shower this evening.

 

[CardMaker]

Well it rained all day and then just because I had to go out we had a short monsoon burst and then it stopped raining

 

[Jeanette]

Well we had sunshine today and quite pleasant been to South Shields and got near home and the heavens opened didn’t last long I’m pleased to say tomorrow is another sunny day according to the forecast..but heavy rain is forecast on Friday ?

Still wet and breezy in mid Cheshire but there are bits of lighter sky in the distance, hopefully heading our way ??

We have about 60% blue and the other 39% white here in Hertfordshire with an air temperature of about 21°C right now.
I've been for a bike ride along the upper Lea Valley, brought back shopping and relaxed in a warm garden for lunch.
This is what retirement is supposed to be like.
Have a great day, everyone!

Hmmmm 99%, I see you're ploy that other 1% is for that unforseen change.
Very clever, as I always said about you.

He, he.
As you infer, Lee, I was simply checking who checks. You've won one.

It was lovely and sunny on the IOM today so we took a trip to the top of Snaefell where apparently you can see 7 kingdoms. Unfortunately the weather took a turn for the worse on the way up.



Lower down it remained a lovely day, with a chance to travel on some very old trams.

I heard on the news about the A level maths results being poor this year .
Evidently only 27% got Grade A.
61% passed at lower grades and 15% failed.
We're spending a couple of nights in a luxury Travel Lodge,( it's got 2 chairs in the room ),at Salford Quays.. For R&R after a hectic 4 days.
Good weather for February.!
There's The Imperial War Museum, Tate North, and the Lowery for the culture vultures Also a decent pub with Speckled Hen on draught ,cricket on Sky and a good place to be marooned in , when the expected downpours arrive

 

[Val54]

The forecast is looking much better for the weekend and next week after tomorrow’s downpours Paul. When I say better, I mean better for Cheshire, you’ll still need extra layers ?

Turned out nice again in CTL, but still breezy

 

[Jeanette]

Today has been sunny but really windy and tonight is quite mild and still I suppose it’s the calm before the storm tomorrow!

[Val54]

Heavy and steady ️️️️ and not a break in the sky, sorry Paul ?

Cheers Dave,
It's a good job we checked the weather before leaving and packed some winter stuff. Trouble is, we're wearing it all at once, walking round like a pair of Teletubbies.
Won't be walking far , it's monsoon season in Salford...
We've a Tesco, Indian Restaurant, and The Matchstick Man pub, within paddling distance.

It’s very wet and windy on the IOM today. We moved from our overnight spot this morning fearing that the van would blow over! It turned out that the wind was funnelling at us between two buildings, so the 45 mph gale was probably nearer 70 or 80 in our exact location. Not moved far, but at least a cup of coffee will stay on the table now. ????
