I have been down there this morning, amazing to see so many destroyed. If I knew how to put pics on from an iPod I would post them.

Woke up to a nice frost with the sun shining this morning, makes a very welcome change!!

[dancing daisy]

There is a really weird orange thing in the sky and the sky is a funny blue colour.

[gottolovethisweather]

Isn't the radar working today?

 

There aren't any precipitation returns on there  , this can't be right!

 

Nope, sadly later today into the overnight period the rain will return, but this time without the 80mph plus gusts.

Morning all

 

Have been incredibly busy over here on the little island, we have had 2 lovely days of sunshine and the temps have been okish too, so clean up operation has been non stop last few days, as many are aware the army has now been drafted in to help the Islanders. A lot of army vehicles came by the ferries, but also you can see some where drafted in my air and landed at cowes, this morning we have had more vehicles land, sorry for some big pictures i was unable to resize a few of them.

 

THE military has been drafted in to assist with relief efforts on the Isle of Wight after it was pounded by severe weather.

Around 20 soldiers and two Land Rovers have been flown in by Chinook helicopter this afternoon (Saturday), landing at Seaclose park. More troops are expected to arrive tomorrow (Sunday).

A captain and 20 troops arrived by Chinook helicopter at Seaclose Park in Newport this afternoon. They will be on the Island for a short period of time to look at parts of the Island affected by recent weather.

"A number of areas experienced flooding over the past 24 hours, and with more bad weather expected, the military will be working with the Isle of Wight Council to identify potential areas for support.

"With high levels of flooding experienced around the Island in recent weeks, the military has committed to boosting the Island’s sandbag supply and will be delivering additional sandbags to the Island this weekend."

The military team has brought its own vehicles to the Island, so residents should not be alarmed if they see troops around the Island, the council said.

me alarmed never, men in uniform on the island WOOT!!!

Funny how a bit of sunshine make everything seem nicer

[Bumpkin]

Ahh the sun is shining and I'm dreaming of summer.  I think we need to make the most of days like these.  Garden has turned into a swamp, I had to put my wellies on to hang the washing out

[gottolovethisweather]

Air Temperatures appear to be sky rocketing today, always slow to pick up here but are still rising quickly having climbed 2.5c in less than hour. Could be the warmest day of the year in places, given the abundant sunshine.

[Somerset Squall]

A bit of a nip in the air after an overnight low of 1.0C, with temperature currently at 6.7C and rising, but I'm not complaining! The sunshine is unbroken . Why can we not have a couple weeks of this? Surely it's not too much to ask for!

Lol I know that feeling, I've practically lived in wellies over the last month or so.

[Nights King]

What a gorgeous day after a rare air frost last night.

[Bristawl Si]

[Nick L]

[legritter]

[gottolovethisweather]

Wow, with the Barometer currently reading 1006.1mb that's the highest reading since February 2nd, all things considered, this was not a bad prediction from back on the 5th February then.

The Max Temps today achieved elsewhere were 12c and more widely 11c so it seems, according to online sources. I got up to 9.2c in my well sheltered garden in the end.

We have had a very nice walk on the moors today and just about to have a roast after a stunning day here!

[MP-R]

Beautiful day here today. Max of 8.7C after a low of -0.7C with near enough unbroken sunshine all day - the roads are now completely dry and not a puddle in sight. Shame it was just a one-day affair. I could see the high cloud ahead of tomorrow's weather arriving on the western horizon.

Some images from our weekend in Sidmouth.

 

Firstly a CB with stunning mammatus near Yeovil yesterday morning

 

It was glorious on the coast between the showers with the tide out (in the evening, with the tide in, and full moon rising, large waves were crashing onto the prom)

 

A shower and rainbow 

 

Taken today, a lot of the beach has ended up on the prom! 

[festivalking]

Cracking winters day today...if a bit spring like. Got an air frost last night. So that makes just 9 since the 1st December  We live in incredible times!

starlings gathering loudly this afternoon, getting organised for local murmuration and suddenly I want to sow some seeds indoors. What a lovely day
