Herts is grey this morning with no sign of the rain that the farmers (and ultimately the consumer) needs.
In fact it seems to be getting brighter by the minute with the weather wizards predicting clear blue skies for this afternoon.
So I suppose today's activities will have to include a bike ride.
Mustn't grumble just yet.

Mostly blue sky and 15 degrees .......... but we have a south westerly currently gusting at 45 km/h 🌬🌬

Update ..... now up to 35 and gusting at over 50 km/h, pretty wild for May, I was going to plant out some dahlias and sweet corn but that’s on hold, they’ll get battered in this

The weather's OK. Nice breeze keeps us sane.
No need for heating, socks, brandy.
The outdoor cafes and parks have reopened.. Safe distantly.
We took advantage of this .


Bliss !

Just had to rush out and tie down the cloche over the veggies before it succeeded in turning into a hang glider!

There's blue above us in all directions here in Hertfordshire with just a gentle breeze at the moment. Currently it's about 11°C and likely to reach 18°C or so later today.
So this morning I'll be fiddling with the Moho and pottering around the garden. Then this afternoon it'll be ......... well....... let me think.......... could I possibly..........oh, OK then............a bike ride around the paths and lanes.

What a beautiful morning, birds twittering for hours......now got to devise a plan to make Dave rest after his trip to hospital yesterday! He thinks it is a good day for gardening again, but don't intend letting him!

Very wet and very windy, so even if we had the freedom that England has I think we’d be hunkered down inside. 🌬 Oh, and it’s 8 degrees.

 

[Biggarmac]

Wild, windy and wet. Thats just the weather.

 

[Val54]

Another wild westerly blowing in, 13 degrees and some sunshine between the clouds scudding across, not a day for planting out ...

Hold the front page - update for Hertfordshire:

Well that didn't last long! The breeze has strengthened with intermittent strong gusts and patchy clouds are rushing across the sky from the west. It feels colder than earlier despite the temperature climbing to 14°C and the forecast is now for winds of 65 kph later today.
I guess that means that I'll be going backwards on the Brompton?

Lot's of dark clouds coming off the moors. Windy, sunny, occasional shower, not enough rain to do any good

 

[Pauljenny]

Bit different,here.
Not a sniff of a breeze.

 

[edina]

Been to the coast this morning and it was quite gusty there. Back home there is just a breeze and patchy sun.

The breeze is a mere whisper compared to the 65kph gusts we had yesterday here in Herts. [ And yes, I can confirm that strong wind can make a cyclist go backwards ].
The sun is out with a few white fluffy clouds wandering north-west to south-east. Later today the temperature should get to about 20°C, though it actually feels warmer than that already when out of the breeze.
Then this week's forecast looks.......



......... boringly consistent.
I'm still in awe of Paul. How on earth does he cope with such conditions?
Years of practice, a rock-steady constitution and diligence of application, I suspect.

Calmed down to a breeze in Cheshire but it’s wall to wall grey with a promise of some brightness later, currently about 15 degrees with the cloud cover. No sign of any significant rain for another week, the sprinklers are going to get some use again ......

Rain for the day and 12 degrees, but at least the wind has eased off. ️️️
