Weather (or not)

  The weathers arrived down n Hampshire. 25 minutes ago it started to rain and hail but  now its snow and sleet with a dash of thunder thrown in for luck Already the roofs of houses are turning white
Time to retreat into hibernation I think

And - 30mins later here just down the road in Farnborough - its all gone. More due tonight I think. As you suggested - hibernation for a while and then back to the layout!

[Portpatrick]

Here in Watford, no more than a bit of sleet/hail which melted within minutes.  What is more it did not hinder the landscaping team who finished 2 weeks work redesigning our back garden today.

...and there's me thinking this would be a thread about getting the airbrush out...or not...

Here in Carlisle.  We had a light dusting yesterday morning which got heavier during the day. Then  over night and early this morning we had about an inch to inch and half. More during the morning then this afternoon its started to thaw and temp now going down to freezing
going to be great in the morning here

Meanwhile, on the 'underside', where it's summer, it's 0723, with clear skies and a forecast 'high' of 30 Degrees C. at our nearest city. However, because of micro-climates, locally, it will probably be nearer 40.  Not as hot as on the Western Island, but for a small  inland town, warm enough...    

I thought that those of the membership who are 'enduring' snow, sleet and cold might like to know....

But here in the sunny south, it's bright moonlight but a bit cold, we had a bit of rain earlier but now clear as a bell, forecast does show some rain expected in the small hours. Just hope they got it right for once.

Whether the weather be cold,
Or whether the weather be hot,
We weather the weather, whatever the weather,
Whether we like it or not!

Try that after a few beers or an alcohol drink of your choice!

That's the thing about the UK, we don't have a climate, we just get weather.

[port perran]

Bit of rain and occasional sharp sleet showers here today mixed in with bright sunny spells.
Windy but not too cold.

[austinbob]

Tell me people... Is it a Brit thing talking about the weather or is it global?
I'm not complaining - just interested to know. I'm always complaining about the weather, its always too hot or too cold, or too wet or whatever!!
Maybe its because Brit weather is so variable and unpredictable that you can't plan your life so well around the weather.

Apart from the cold really affecting my chest infection I'll believe Carol Kirkwood (weather lady on 6 ack emma BBC news) whatever she tells me

She's a cracker as some comedian, whose name I forget, used to say.
