We even have some hazy sunshine here this afternoon, not doing much for the temperature, but just nice to see it again.

Yep. The sun has poked it's nose out here now. Temp up to 11.4°C which is almost 2 degrees higher than yesterday.

Dry here today, though cloudy and chilly.

Took a look at xcweather and the frost is on again for my location tonight! Thats the GFS if I'm not mistaken.

Dry all day so far and looks like it might well stay that way. Very cold wind though. :cold:

 

Crikey! How did you manage that, I thought you'd walk 10 yds east and get wet, you were so close to it at times..

Driving home from Bomo tonight, it was becoming noticeably brighter as I approached Poole, but then again after a long day it does that anyway I think :yahoo:

Somehow it stayed out just to the easy all day.

Looking back on the radar it looks like the whole region more or less stayed dry all day while the SE region had rain all day.  :spiteful: :rofl:

And just in time to finish off the day the sun comes out and a sudden rise in temperature with it, up to 11.7°C. Will feel nice again once we lose the cold breeze.

I've been a 'backer' for some time, but I had an email today regarding shipping, so it shouldn't be too long now. Already have a template waiting to show it's data, including the lightning.

Yes, same here. How nice of it. And those clear skies mean one thing tonight; dead seedlings.

I've simply no more room indoors for anything. Most of the tenders are littering my windows but a lot are in the cold greenhouse....

For non-gardeners wondering why growers are overloaded with seedlings... its this:

To make space, we have to plant out things that get planted out first .. Brassicas etc. Before they get planted out, they first get hardened off - to get the seedlings used to strong sunlight, wind and flux in temps. Fat chance for me at the moment. So, the Brassicas are still in the greenhouse (they will do fine) the Tomatoes and Peppers in the main are indoors grabbing every available space. The squashes, Sunflowers Celery and anything else... in the greenhouse. They might not make it. Not to mention the blossoming Apples. So much lovely blossom - that might not make it. So, few Apples.

There shouldn't be any need for charges. For those waiting to receive one in Europe, it will be shipped from Shenzhen to a European warehouse/distributor, and then sent out to the customer, so it avoids those charges for us.

A min of -1.1C here, first air frost since the 30th March and 0.1C off my lowest May temp (covering the last 10 years).
A clear calm night is something the 'beasts' were missing, shown by how this is only 4.2C higher than the lowest I had then.

There's apple orchards near here, but thankfully most varieties seem to be holding off for the warm up that's coming (this morning's frost won't have affected them too much though and it will have been slightly warmer on the hillside).
