Grand morning. No cloud; no wind; no frost; birds singing and chirping

Same here Knocker apart from the frost piece which we do have after an overnight low of -2.1°C at: 06:24, now currently 2.1°C..

The freshly raked beach unspoilt, whilst the low tide is a feast for seagulls (especially as there is nobody around to scare them off!)

[MP-R]

Frost to start... again... and sunny this morning, although cloud building quicker than yesterday. If only it was warmer!

[knocker]

Another grand morning. No cloud; no wind; possibly may have sneaked a ground frost, will check later

[jtay]

Beautiful day in Swanage yesterday. Fish and chips all round, in the Sunshine. Can't beat it.

Another sparkler on the cards today with temps edging in the right direction.

Aye, not much beats a long, hot, sunny day, on the beach. Especially when said beach has its own fish & chip shop!

Can't say it was long, or hot; but it was certainly Sunny. Swanage has a fair few Fish & Chip shops to choose from.

I bought our pal's 9 year old lad a large cod, as a challenge and he polished off the whole lot.

Another night, another frost... albeit a light one.

Beautifully sunny this morning though. I just ask for one thing - it stays that way!

Same here, with -1.4°C at: 06:31, currently 10.3°C with a very light breeze in from the SSE. Humidity or lack of is the current point, around 40% and still falling, confirms the need to water the seedlings to bring them on, and then cover them at night to avoid the frost...with sunbathers AND deckchairs back on the beach

[ARTDEMOLE]

Clouding up already here grrr. Quite annoying with a humidity figure of only 36%...

Yes the dryness and frost risk is not good - have put off getting a number of more tender plants out just yet.

[Andy Bown]

Mrs Bee accidentally left her newly purchased herbs on the patio table! Instructions say not to leave out until after frosts have gone!

[matt111]

Sunny with blue skies all day so far but a bit cool in the breeze. Sunny 10.2°C

[MP-R]

Fortunately the cloud buildup was short lived and quickly melted away again. Just brushed 14C.

[knocker]

A sheet of Sc has encroached recently

[Andy Bown]

Hang out the flags 14c has been breached! The warmest day since Easter Sunday! Practically 2 weeks in April without it getting to 14c!

Unbroken sunshine all day, the only cloud being patches of cirrus.

A decent diurnal range too after the minimum of -1.1c this morning.

[CheesepuffScott]

Sunny with light winds all day, reached 13.6°C after a low of -1.8°C overnight.

[Mapantz]

A low of -1.3°C this morning. Finally managed a full day of blue skies!!  Temp maxed at 14.1°C.

[knocker]

Another pleasant morning. Three or four oktaa of high Ac, no wind or frost

[Dorsetbred]

Morning All, a clear sunny and cloud free start to the day, after an overnight low of  -1.8°C at: 05:56, currently 6.4°C, so warming nicely. Yesterday the humidity reach 36%, and even for a coastal fringe that feels low, need to get out and water the plants this morning as little hope for rain in the immediate..

 

[knocker]

Cloud become much more extensive of late with some small Cu in the mix

[CheesepuffScott]

Morning all, the overnight low was -0.8°C at: 05:46... sunny once again with a light breeze in from the NE, currently 12.3°C

The lower and medium cloud layers indicated on the sounding have now virtually gone lreaving a covering of Ci

[knocker]

Best part of the day now with a fair bit of sunshine

[Dorsetbred]

A warm day peaking nicely this afternoon at 15.6°C at: 13:12, some patchy cloud this afternoon, but overall some great growing weather apart from the lack of rain, with the RH34% lower than yesterday, even with the breeze in from the SW helping it recover to a current 49%..Some late afternoon folks grabbing the last of the days rays...

[Andy Bown]

Diurnal range of exactly 16c today, -0.2c then 15.8c which it goes without saying is the warmest so far this month.

More importantly 2 days of practically maximum sunshine. There was a cool sundog this morning too.
