Not a bad start to the day here, a little cloud, but dry. 

Next week looks a tad iffy work wise, but hopefully shouldn't be too bad. 

[ARTDEMOLE]

You might see the sun, it is breaking through here..

 

[Dorsetbred]

A fine afternoon in the garden removing the summers' growth, before the monsoon starts. A peak of 17.1°C at: 14:14, and warming sunshine has made it a pleasant weekend

[Andy Bown]

Another beautiful warm afternoon after an unexpected brief heavy shower around 08.00 . It was lovely playing various games in the garden!

[matt111]

Cloudy earlier in the day but sunny for most of the afternoon. Reached 16.8°C

[*Stormforce~beka*]

Lepe beach didn't happen. I came down with a headache. Catnapped in bed for 3 hours or so in the afternoon and have had the hangover from it ever since. Think it was the start of a migraine and I just caught it before it got too bad. Pain the weeble though as it was a waste of a good day.

[Mapantz]

Just got back from a ride down to Arne. Loads of mist pockets! As I went through them, the temp would drop to 4°C and feel cold. Then it would warm back up to 7°C. It kept happening the whole time. Pretty cool!

Lots of Bambi's about too!

 

[knocker]

Cloudy, very light rain and a gentle breeze

[knocker]

I have the yacht tied up at the Falmouth marina at the moment

Is Sandyballs a place or a medical condition, Beka?

[Dorsetbred]

Light drizzle at the moment after an overnight low of 8.9°C at: 01:35, currently 14.2°C with RH92% and a strengthening breeze in from the SW..

Sat image shows, well not a lot apart from cloud!

And the beachcam this morning, shows that the lights are on, but, nobody is at home

@Beka, have you considered in weather terms why you are here at this time of the year?

Here, let me explain why

You can blame Henry VII...

The estate's name has been traced as far back as the reign of Henry VII. It appeared on maps and other documents of the time as "Sandyballas," which is the description given to the dome-shaped sand and gravel outcrops on the western boundary of the site

Meanwhile drizzle into light rain from this, with something a little heavier possible later
