Certainly some impressive gusts today. Highest here was 42mph just before 4PM.

Some toasty charts showing up for next week ?

Still a barmy 16C here @ 3.23AM.

Frosty this morning, grass temperature been below freezing since 1AM :)

Much milder this morning than this time yesterday, 5C ? As Tom says above, the outlook is not good if you're a coldie. I still think there is time for snow this winter, just!

What a change from 24 hours ago. 4AM and 12C here in mid-Essex ?

Nice to have some cooler nights finally, sleep much better!

Nice to see some rain this evening, total of 1.8mm which was a little more than expected :)

Surprised to see the 528 line on the Norfolk coast on the latest Fax chart. Some Northerly this coming weekend!

Outlook is pretty decent for mid-April, up to 20C for the Easter weekend :)

Great capture ?

Was a few freak gusts around 5AM on Saturday morning, highest being 54mph.

TBH, when the new text forecasts came through via DataPoint a few hours ago I was surprised by the "heavy rain" on the south coast. Even their own model doesn't have any rain along the coast tomorrow evening/night. Can anyone find one that does? I wouldn't take much notice at this stage anyway :)

Tonight will be a nowcast situation for sure, but the latest run of the UKV has pepped up the back edge of the snow-band across London, Kent and Essex. Heaviest looks likely between 21Z and 00Z with the last clearing the extreme east of Kent around 01Z. Thursday is complicated, too complicated to look into until a few more model runs are out! Good luck tonight if you're hoping for snow ?
