[Chesil View]

As so often happens here the supposed rain has been vastly overplayed by the forecasters. Met office had heavy rain symbol with 90 percent chance now for the same time cloud symbol and 10 percent chance. This happens slot here in spring and summer.

Morning, a mild night with the temperature staying above 14°C for much of the night.. and a low of 13.5°C at 05:45.

Overnight min of 15.1°C, a few drops of rain on the car roof, but nowt in the gauge.  Yesterday's max just hit 26°C.

[CheesepuffScott]

A drop of rain earlier but not nearly enough to wet the ground. A nice breeze out too.

[Dorsetbred]

Morning all, a warm night by all accounts reaching a warm 14.3°C at: 04:44 with overcast skies struggling to warm, currently 15.2°C..Overnight rainfall, well yes it did briefly, but not measurable and everything is dry, in fact the garden is parched..

[lettice]

After that wonderful day yesterday, it was still 17.9c at 3am, dropping to a low of 15c at 5:30am

Now 16.3c, with a light grey sky.
Felt a very slight bit of drizzle around 7am, but nothing at all to register.
SW wind has picked up since 5am, 12-18mph and plenty of 20-24mph gusts.

My Met app has gone from the odd shower for tomorrow to a low % chance of showers all day.

All courtesy of this trough, which we might catch.

Don't mind either way. Could do with some rain though. This morning's amounted to nothing, as expected.

Then we're in good shape again for next week by the looks of it.

 

[CheesepuffScott]

Sunny now. 18.1°C

[matt111]

Sunny now after a cloudier morning and beeezier than the last few days. 16.8°C

[CheesepuffScott]

A few small pots over in the garden, but thankfully nothing compared to the NE'ly at the start of the month, as the garden is shielded quite well from south / westerly winds.

Got to 20.1°C at: 13:52.. have to say the house feels much fresher now.

Yeah, I nailed our rusty bunnies down after that NE'ly.

We're going to try to sit out later. It is blowing a bit, but we'll give it a go.

Min 14.3 at 8 am, max 18.7 at 1pm, quite a pleasant albeit breezy day here with sunny spells.Just a few spots or 'rain' early in the day but there is nothing in the gauge so 'trace'.

[matt111]

No rain here last night, just a cloudy morning. The sun came out during the early part of the afternoon but it clouded over again later on. Also quite windy all day. Reached 17.3°C, currently 13.9°C

[CheesepuffScott]

That wind has died down a little compared to earlier but looks like it picks up again tomorrow morning.. partly cloudy and down to 11.7°C

[lettice]

A low at 4:30am of 12.6c

Sun is out, 15.3c, blue sky appearing slowly as the cloud moves on.
Been windy all morning, WSW 14-18mph with plenty of 20-25mph gusts and a few at 28mph.

 

[Andy Bown]

Unless we catch a heavy shower then the dry spell will continue until goodness knows when. 
 

Had a pointless shower at 06.00 on Thursday, an equally pointless 5 minutes of light rain early yesterday and another pointless brief shower half an hour ago.

Very gusty all night and ongoing this morning.

[jtay]

Looks like our first shower of the day is about to rattle through.

The previous one missed us, but got the Peregrine chicks at the top of the Cathedral.

These powerful birds of prey have made the Cathedral their home.

Showers doing a brilliant job of missing here, which is annoying as some of them look pretty intense.

[CheesepuffScott]

Sunny spells with a fresh breeze. A few showers blowing in on the westerly wind but it’s a catching game it seems.. 16.9°C

[matt111]

Windy but dry here so far with all the showers passing to the north. 16.1°C

[Dorsetbred]

As noted above  by Matt, the showers are avoiding the coastal fringe at the moment, and it is windy compared to of late. Currently 17.2°C with the wind in from the WSW at 20mph and a slow pressure rise.

Tonking it down.

[ARTDEMOLE]

Broken cloud with sunny intervals. Blustery

16.0c.

[jtay]

Here's the shower to the South heading towards Southampton.

 

[MP-R]

A gust of 40mph not long ago - strongest since mid March. Looks and feels so much windier when the trees are in full leaf.
