The Weather

I have to say that when I first read this I was in agreement - but yesterday afternoon it got so warm that I switched off the heating and even took my vest off!
We often get 'false starts' at this time of year, don't we? You don't know if you're coming or going or indeed, what to wear.

It didn't rain in .Mid Wales yesterday , not a drop. And sunshine today , bliss ,I can even see the mountains , thought they had been moved

Apparently it was warm all day yesterday but I did not leave the house until 7pm and was surprised to find it was still 20 degrees, shame I missed the day.

so agree with you Watermeadow ,yesterday (wednesday )was the best day ,i had to laugh the weather man on monday eve said dont forget to put on your factor 50 suncream tomorrow (tues ),all i put on was another warm cardi

I've just read your post watermeadow after a glorious day when I've had to raid my summer wardrobe to get dressed! What a difference a day makes!!!

Well, it did improve, and by evening we had 16°c. Too late to really enjoy it though. Walking in the garden after sunset I discovered that the bats have returned to my roof. ??

Yesss - the day started as grey as ever, we needed the central heating. By 3 the sun was coming out and at 5pm we were sitting in the garden with a glass of proseco (we've got something to celebrate)

Yes, at last, a warm sunny day!
Did I mow the lawn, weed the garden or get the puppy house-trained? No, I was looking after a little grandchild, home from school with D and V and she won’t be allowed back for the rest of the week.
I blame Theresa May for that too.

Absolutely lovely in Devon today and about 21C

Beautifully warm and sunny up north. Delightful sight of newly washed winter bedding wafting in the breeze. Does it for me every time.

Oh dear I’m so sorry for you all ,...I’m in middle of country(Bedford) and we’ve had a absolutely brilliant sunshiny day...I’ve walked 6 miles today and I’ve sweat buckets. And it’s gonna be 26’ tomorrow. Sorry you’re all suffering.

Phew what a scorcher! I was at Ham House in Richmond today gorgeous gardens loads of people sunbathing on the riverbank , got a summer dress out of the far reaches of the wardrobe yeah!!!

Blue skies, sunshine and warmth here on the Isle of Wight, but being near the sea we rarely get the high temperatures that some places do. Let's hope it lasts longer than a day or two.

Saw a funny quote on Facebook which went
“I can’t wait for summer, I just hope it falls on a weekend”
About sums it up

I had to put some sun screen on to sit out in the garden it’s stunning and the forecast is hotter tomorrow and similar till Monday. Think I’ll get the BBQ ready ?

Woo-hoo! Lovely in Lancashire!

Well, at least I've dried one load of washing on the line (first of the year) but it was very cloudy and grey here (Worcestershire) until about 1pm - and I've worn a fleece all day and been glad of it, as the promised warm weather hasn't arrived...
My friend, who lives about 12 miles from me, has been sitting in her garden basking in the sunshine for most of the day..! Ah, the good old British summer - every season in one day...!!! ?

First day sitting out in my garden today.
Glorious sunshine. Also first day out without a coat and scarf on.

To the first two posters, I'm very surprised you didn't blame Trump or Putin or Brexit for the bad weather....Those three usually seem to get the blame for everything!

It's lovely down in the New Forest today and I have just mowed my lawns for the first time this year. I have had the heating on a lot this winter though as I have been housebound a lot recovering from a knee replacement so I'm dreading how much in arrears I will be with my energy bills.

Just got home from work a few minutes ago. It's beautiful here in Surrey although I work in West Sussex, it was beautiful there too. Wore shoes without socks today and if it continues tomorrow ( no work) the sandals will be out . Can't wait!

Sunburned arms here in on East Essex coast

watermeadow Yes,Theresa May and Brexit. The weather would go back to normal without them.

Hmm ... the heatwave arrived this morning.

Really warm here today in Bristol though we have had the heating on in the evenings. Just about to depart to Devon where we have a caravan. Looking forward to sitting in the awning, listening to the birds, doing some lacemaking and enjoying a glass of wine! Bottoms up! ?

I haven't been out today (nor am I going to) but I have it on good authority that it's a bit blowy again today up here! (Scotland). Yesterday started overcast but by the time afternoon came I was melting. No change there for me.... menopause is not my friend ?
