Not a bad day here, with sunny spells and just the odd light shower. Temp topped 14c this afters; still a bit of a chill wind but very useable this afters in the garden for a few jobs.
Just a typical April day me thinks. Fingers crossed it warms up to a poss 16/17c this weekend.

CryoraptorA303 ours has been totally off for about a week now and i dont intend to put it back on until late October.
It's already down to 11c outside and a chill wind, but house has stayed warm due to decent sunshine last couple of days, plus we do have a small window open in living room right now and small windows open upstairs.
-
Sunny with high wispy cloud. 14c, but feels warmer in suntrap back garden, although breeze has a distinct chill to it.
Still, been a decent weekend for approaching mid-April and very useable in terms of getting stuff done tidying the garden, brushing in dry kiln sand for front block paving and finishing treating and jetwashing patio in prep for re-pointing it this coming week.

Beautiful here, a bit breezy, but perfect for approaching mid-April, temp of 15c.
-
Topped 20c. We've had full sun for a time. Sunny periods and clouds now.
A decent day though and yet another different day compared to some this April.
Today continues the 'typical April weather' theme seen this month i.e. varied.
-
Yet another dreadfully inaccurate local tv forecast yday eve from MetO.
I was up early doors, a quick jetwash of patio (prob annoyed the neighbours). Sprayed the black spot remover all over, smells like a swimming pool out there at the mo
.
10.30 restart to brush the water/substance mix and then a final jetwash, but it's 'kin heavy drizzle. Remind myself to keep extension lead socket part under patio table
-
Hopefully, just dry tomorrow, little wind and no rain.
Not bothered about the sun tomorrow as i plan to give the patio a proper jetwash but using black spot remover first, so need it to work its magic first, before scrubbing and power washing it.
In fact, conditions look ideal for the job tom morn

Grey, damp, raining, only 10c.
The very typical April continues with alternating days of good and bad weather. From tomorrow it doesnt look too bad for a few days and poss well into next week, with one or two interruptions.
April is a very varied month, weatherwise; always has been, so little change, historically, imho.

CryoraptorA303 havent noticed that myself. Various periods throughout my 60+ years have seen long wet spells and long dry spells.

raz.org.rain typical April in the UK really.
I found a weather website the other day showing historical summaries of April over last 120 years or so.
It's really stark how varied Aprils can be, either the 30 days in any one year OR by looking at Aprils over many years.
Yeah, really varied, weatherwise and it seems forever so. In reality, there's been v little change to our climate here, in the UK. Perception can be deception

I thought it was all down to a particularly powerful El Nino, this last year or so.

16c at 05.50 on 6th April.
Phew, what a scorcher

Grey, 12c, drizzle.
March 2024, for the area, as told by our local Meto guy on local tv last night.
74% of normal March sunshine levels
124% of 'normal' rainfall
Above average temps, to which my wife exclaimed "Really?!"
EDIT: Drizzle quickly replaced by driving rain
-
12c, sunny with clouds. Pleasant enough at the mo, but threat of showers by looks of it.
-
raz.org.rain July 2023 CET came out as average or a little above solely because of mild temps at night. Daytime temps were decidely cool.
-
baddie "...the first few weeks of April.." it says.
Hmm.....so that's the whole of April. Those comms peeps at UK Meto need a few lessons in writing English and whoever oversees these daily comms needs a few lessons, as well. Who writes this stuff 'down there'?

Disappointing springs followed by excellent summers?

Erm, last Spring (2023) was pretty awful here, and
Summer 2023 wasnt great, with a 'filling' of a dreadful July.
