  1. Morning All, it's one of those have everything days it seems. It's windy, overcast, no wait a brighter spell, no wait heavy drizzle now. The overnight low of 10.1°C at: 06:42, has hauled itself slowly up to 11.3°C, RH92% with a fresh breeze in from the SSW - W. A perfect day to remove any cobwebs with a walk along the pier.
  2. Afternoon All, the main rain area has moved past now. The overnight low of 3.4°C at: 00:07 has risen to 11.3°C, RH97% and a light breeze from the SW. From Above the earlier (12:05) sat shot, shows the back edge of the main rain bearing cloud as it pulls away SE. Over a week away but who knows maybe it'll happen.
  3. RIGHT, so this weeks rain is brought to you care of @jtay who wished this upon the area, when posting: "Too late" we all cried.
  4. Morning All, an overcast start to the week, after the overnight low of 4.8°C at: 01:36, currently 7.8°C, RH91% with a light breeze from the N - NW. From Above On Golden sands, overcast and a flat channel
  5. Morning All, an overcast one today, after an overnight low of 6.6°C at: 02:12, currently 9.3°C, RH92% and light air movement from the SE. From Above On Golden sands, a few dogs taking their owners for a walk.
  6. Yes it does look as though the ECM was better than the GFS at predicting how far east the rainfall might be.
  7. *Stormforce~beka* Have a read of the enclosed: Lavender Care - Downderry Nursery DOWNDERRY-NURSERY.CO.UK Lavender plant care including pruning advice. Its also worth looking at a high potash feeder, something like https://www.amazon.co.uk/Chempak-High-Potash-Fertiliser-Formula/dp/B00K6GWJCK/ref=sr_1_6?sr=8-6 To hopefully bring it on, make sure it's not going to get too much water in the the mean time. @jtay please feel free to shut me up if I am providing anything wrong in trying to resuscitate the sad looking lavender.
  8. Crikey they'll be lucky, the local small hotels are either burning down or being knocked down. The B.I.C would make a good Polar bear home, right next to the Aquarium and the penguins!
  9. OH NO, you mean it's not true PS Mrs Miggins tearoom closed in Hexham earlier this year, Harry Ramsdens or WestBeach are as near the Pier that you might be brave enough to venture in to!
  10. Morning All, an overcast and damp start with the main event of rain having just reached us now. The overnight low of 6.1°C at: 01:35 has risen to 9.1°C, RH89% with a light breeze from the SE. From Above On Golden sands, looking dark out over the channel
  11. Afternoon All, a bright sunny morning, with a brisk easterly, with the overnight low of 2.4°C at: 06:45 having risen to 10.0°C , with the RH71% suggesting some drying out after the rain, in readiness for the next load. From Above On Golden sands the hazy cloud shown on the radar clearly visible
  12. *Stormforce~beka* Anything you can break, like plant pots (not plastic) , plates, cups, bricks, you name it, I suspect you might have a better chance if you put it in a pot, given that we are due to see more rain over the next 5 days or so. A friendly garden centre might have some broken pots, you only need a little if you put it in a pot to try and bring it on.
  13. Do a quick test, select a twig of lavender bend it, if it breaks then could well be dead, but if it bends and doesn't snap there's a fair chance it's slow in getting its act together. Lavender is quite hardy temperature wise, so I'd not really think the cold has killed , more like the excess of rain. JTAY has given you the good info.
  14. Morning All, bit of a change this morning as the cloud movement is from the east. After a misty night the overnight low of 3.0°C at: 06:45 has climbed to 9.4°C, RH82% and a light freshening breeze from the east with patchy cloud coming in off the channel. From Above On Golden sands
  15. Morning All, a crackin' morning, decent frost and clear blue sky, which now has convective Cu forming. The overnight low of -0.9°C at: 06:43, has risen to 10.9°C, The temperature and sunshine graph show the strength of the sun with a parallel marked increase in temperature below: From Above On Golden sands
