Missed most of the showers today but fresh wind.  I bet more of us will experience the showers tomorrow, with an even fresher feeling to the north westerly winds.  The only wintry mix most of us will get will be any 'hail' in the heaviest of showers.  The sheep on the tops of the hills might get something a bit more substantial.

Another chilly day with a max of 8.2°C, rain cleared before midday leaving a half decent afternoon with some sunny spells, nice sunset this evening. Cool and unsettled outlook with rain and blustery April showers.

Yes it looks like one of those annoying, cold but not cold enough spells that seem to have been the default pattern over recent weeks.

at  this time of year though all I want is dry warm and sunny weather, plenty of time for another feeble attempt at winter in about 7 months.

An unpleasant day, heavy blustery downpours throughout with flashes of blue sky but predominantly cloudy. Maxes in the 6-7 degree range. Snowfall down to 500m. Chilly evening, temps an hour ago were down to 4 degrees in a heavy shower. Feeling more wintry than December ever did.

Rode back from leisure centre last evening through what I thought was sleet.  Cold and showery all night all the time I was awake and this morning a fence panel in the downstairs garden has been partly brought down by the wind.  Really thought I'd seen the last of the loathsome winter however I suspect the coming spring will be like the past two: persistent PM incursions with clear, cold nights and sunless cloudy days.

Indeed, it was freezing right into May last year. That brisk westerly just wouldn't ease up. Wasn't so bad when the sun actually came out but that was hardly frequently.

I'm amazed that people can't seem to see that we're seemingly in a never ending autumn at the minute and have been for a few years now!

I can see it, been saying it myself.

its either that or the seasons are all running about 3 months behind the clock.

It's really starting to get me down now. Another horrible day, and that incessant wind! On the rare occasions (like now) that it has brightened up a bit, it's still too cold with the wind chill to go out without a coat. It felt like a dreary miserable mid november day today. We are stuck in Autumn and not in a good way
