  1. Beautiful day to have off work today, reached 25.5c making it the hottest day of the year so far.
  2. Ended up with 36mm of rain yesterday making it the wettest day I have recorded on my station since June 2016
  3. Was a lovely day yesterday plenty of sunshine and feeling warm with a high of 21c. Wet start today with it looking like will need to take umbrellas on the school run for this first time in a while. Wednesday still looking like the wettest day of the working week.
  4. First time since the start of February that I have had four consecutive days with measured rainfall here; not amounted to much though (2.6mm). Still only at 25% of average for the month. Even though not looking forward to a wet day hope any rain mid week amounts to something.
  5. Nothing wrong with it and take it if you have room, but the 50mm is a faster and the 10-18 is wider if it was a faster lens like a 2.8 I would say take it instead of the 10-18mm. I would take the 55-250, nothing worse than wishing you had something longer, I know you could crop in the 18-200 images but with the sort of conditions your shooting in your ISO is going to be relatively high and you don't want to be adding more noise to your images by cropping them too much in post.
  6. 18-200 for a general walkabout lense 10-18mm for wide angle are the two that would say definitely need. 50mm 1.8 prime is always a good solid lens to have. Can't see much need for the 17-40 or 60mm. Might want to rent or buy something a bit longer as well, even on with your camera being an APSC you might find the 18-200 a bit short; something like a 70-300 or a 100-400.
  7. Yea apart from the odd shower in the far west looks like we will all be dry until the evening, with temps in the high teens at least it will be nice and warm
  8. Yea it is certainly nice that we have got rid of the dull as dishwater weather that we have had recently. As mentioned above the hi res models are all showing slight variations on the same theme for Thursday/Friday, but the main theme seems to be that rain will first affect more western areas and then move into our area during the evening on Thursday / over night into Friday.
  9. was dull and chilly with drizzle this morning when was out and about but a vast improvement this afternoon with the cloud breaking and it feeling quite pleasant in the sun - high 17.1c 11am 16.30pm
  10. Yes, yesterday was the best day of the week (and typically the day I was back at work ) Some good sunny spells and a high of 16c. Grey chilly start today but the sun is now trying to break through.
  11. Been a slightly better day here, 13.3c high is up a couple of days on yesterday and not had the constant drizzle, still grey and overcast though.
  12. Not looking particularly warm or sunny for the weekend but at least look dry over the weekend for the vast majority of the region. Exception looks to be the south coast on Saturday that could see some rain:
  13. In terms of number of showers that have passed through during the day, it has appeared to be the wettest day for quite a while, but only recording 1.7mm of rain on stations around here. High of 13.7c
  14. Not rain so far today here, high of 15.5c. Tomorrow looks like a mixed bag - western parts of the region (closest to the low) will see the most frequent and heaviest showers, drier the further east you go, with the far east quite likely to stay dry.
  15. Looking at the NOAA height anomaly charts they are going for the high to move away to the west post day 10: If this sort of scenario verifies then the main question would be would this allow a more unsettled westerly setup to take over or will high-pressure be influential enough from the south to keep things settled?
  16. Things not looking as bad as they did a couple of days ago for the region tomorrow. The frontal rain coming in from the west fizzles out and only really affects the far west of the region on tonight's model runs. It's not until rain moves into the south during the late afternoon that we see more widespread rain; even then many parts will not see anything until the evening.
  17. Looks like the Met have dropped the above average temperatures theme that has been mentioned further up the thread in their latest update - now going for average to slightly below. http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/features/39756642?ns_mchannel=social&ns_campaign=bbc_weather&ns_source=twitter&ns_linkname=news_central
  18. Not sure if anyone is actually sure, not seen anyone come up with a definitive answer on Twitter etc. Sunny start here, then clouded over before brightening up again this afternoon, high of 17.5c
