Eurgh so done with this weather. Sunny then pouring rain today. Really cold too, didn’t even put the tomatoes out in the gh today.

[Topcat]

After a cold but mostly sunny day yesterday, we are now back to cold, wet and windy (predicted 42mph today).
I had planted out the first half dozen tomato plants in the G/H about a week ago but am holding off on the rest just in case.
If you believe the BBC, their forecasting shows no frosts for the next 2 weeks (and Metcheck seems to agree) and by then it's the 21st May so maybe no more frosts this spring at all.
Keeping my fingers crossed as by then my spuds should be above ground and I don't fancy having to go round and cover all those up.

Much the same weather here TC

[Mr Bones]

8 degrees and lobbing it down..

[annie8]

Covered the emerging potato plants in the beds last night just in case, but no overnight frost though

[Bren In Pots]

It's rained here all day and is still raining now.

[annie8]

Wet here too. Thank goodness for a greenhouse

[quanglewangle]

Temperature just dropped 8°C, from 13°C to 5°C, in ten minutes. Brrr!

To be fair, it was under a hail shower.

We had a hail shower yesterday and I heard a roll of thunder at the end of it.

[Mr Bones]

Raining buckets here, rumble of thunder too.

[Bren In Pots]

Was sunny this morning when we washed the GH then the rain started around 1-ish hasn't really stopped only a couple of times briefly. Had thunder same as MrB.

Stayed dry until 5.30 then the heavens poured with thunder banging as we walked the dogs
