    A few late showers in Greatstone as well. No sunshine today with the biggest break in the cloud lasting a couple of minutes around sunset time this evening

    Thunderstorm just moments before it hit Greatstone yesterday evening, it was certainly very wild for a while. Very strong south-westerly wind as I type although dry and sunny to go with it.

    Definitely not complaining this evening, beautiful sunset over Romney Marsh

    Glorious afternoon, now that the sea fog has burnt away, 15c at Lydd Airport, fab walk along the beach at Greatstone at lunchtime

    Beautiful start on Romney Marsh, unfortunately I was driving during a very colourful sunrise but had a very pleasant walk with the dogs on the beach around 9.30am and as always there were some beautiful reflections. Like others yesterday I too have grown really tired of goat related posts in here, banter is good but with some variation please Enjoy your day it looks like it might be the driest and sunniest we get this week.

    According to the BBC weather today I've been relocated to the the middle of the Channel, Romney Marsh is a bit damp but not quite that wet

    Sunset tonight from the back garden - Greatstone Kent

    Morning @TomSE12 glad to see you're fighting fit today A touch of frost around early but also some cloud which again put pay to sunrise, still some nice reflections on the beach at Greatstone though.

    Well said, silly and a touch insensitive I would say. Still being plagued by some quite pokey showers here at Greatstone but at least we have some sunshine in between today, temperature racing up to 5c now

    Best of luck Tom, I seem to remember you going through this a few years back as well and having to deal with a leak

    I mentioned on the BBC Blog that the TV forecast and website went from the best to one of the worst overnight, it might be saving money but the quality and accuracy has gone, might just as well scrap it like they did to their Travel section on the website..

    Early red sky at dawn has quickly given way to some light showery rain, the wind has fallen light and both the temperature and DP are positive. Back to some kind of normality at last down here on the coast of Kent

    Greatstone about 2 minutes ago, shouldn't last too long

    Very generous Tom, but I'm busy blowing it in the other direction, had enough of winter Hope you are well

    A couple of very unpleasant dog walks today, icy winds and almost constant light snow. Didn't settle this morning, more so this afternoon as the temperature dropped just below freezing, the only patches of snow around are in areas sheltered from the biting ENE wind. I haven't got a lot of enthusiasm for this weather in mid March, didn't even wear a coat to walk the dogs on the beach yesterday - spring can be very fickle indeed.

    1.7c and still rising with plenty of dripping outside. It been an interesting week,definitely the best cold spell since 2010 for me but nowhere near as impressive as 78/79, the snowy winters of the 1980s, or Feb 1991. Being it was going to be the last day of the cold spell today I went down to the beach when it was still snowing this afternoon just to take in the scene as who knows, it might another decade before I see snow on the beach at Greatstone again. In the first picture the snow was being blown up the beach and piling up in the dunes, couldn't stay there long with east wind straight off the sea. The second picture goes all the way back to 1987 showing my garden in Higham after many hours of continuous snow. Now that was my favourite cold spell Really looking forward to spring now although I have a feeling it's only going to warm up slowly this year.

    Temperature here getting close to zero now with just the odd flake. Make the most of it today, temperatures are already up to 5/6c in Guernsey/Jersey and Le Harve. Nice that most places in the region saw some snow today, 3cm for me which is good total on the coast here. Come on Spring
  18. kentcloud
    About 2cm and probably this winters swansong. Still snowing and backbuilding in the Channel, perhaps another hour or so to go here on the coast I would think.

    bigger flakes readily settling in Greatstone now
  20. kentcloud
    Light snow now falling on frozen surfaces after the earlier freezing rain, just treacherous out now with the temperature starting to fall slightly to -1c
  21. kentcloud
    Not certain what's to come this afternoon but currently drizzle falling in Greatstone which is not good as still below freezing here, judging by the state of our east facing windows this morning it looks like Storm Emma has sucked up some sand somewhere on its journey up from the south. Certainly take care if you're out and about today. Roll on spring

    I think the front is real and will probably make landfall in Kent between 8 to 9pm, you can just make it out on the satellite as well, as to how much ppn there will be on it is another matter, definitely showing on Buienradar +3 hours https://www.buienradar.nl/wereldwijd/europa/buienradar/3uurs
  23. kentcloud
    Don't know but not long to wait to find out
  24. kentcloud
    Buienradar 3 hours ahead suggests landfall on the Kent/Sussex coast between 4 to 5am https://www.buienradar.nl/wereldwijd/europa/buienradar/3uurs
