The weather today?

We have had plenty of “love” since Jubilee weekend…..

18 degrees and mostly cloudy today here in west Wales.

Wet and windy for some relief.

Ray.

Bloody foggy here.

25 degrees and sun forecast here in west Wales.

I can hardly believe that I have just typed that but its true! 😜 😎

How about this devastation. .........................

Photos: ‘Ping-pong’ ball size hailstones destroy roofs in France (connexionfrance.com)

Ray.

Hail ? There were reports in France of “golf ball sized” hail stones destroying roofs;


Needs a careful inspection as to how extensive damage is, hope it is limited to just a couple of panes of glass. 🤔

Our hail was not all that large but it was fast-moving - like little bullets. It destroyed our smaller plastic solar lights.

We were on a France Passion site a few years ago. They had their cherry orchards covered with netting which I thought was to keep birds away. But no, it was to provide protection from the severe hail they get. They insisted we bring our motorhome under the protection of their barn.

We heard what were like successive cannon shots dancing among the clouds, wave after wave of that. As I understood from Monsieur this was some kind of high tech attempt to disrupt the coming storm.

20 degrees and cloudy forecast for Cheltenham today

17 degrees and a right old mix of sun/cloud/rain/lightening storms forecast for Dawlish Warren today.

Been nice again today, Sat & Sun peed it down greatly in the afternoons.

We were promised some rain but none has arrived yet. Farmers are getting desperate Mark, next door, commented that it will wait until harvest and then chuck it down!
Is anyone else getting lots more wind (of the meteorological kind ) then we used to get?
Also are the nights warmer than they used to be?

Yes and yes Pat.

17 degrees and cloudy all day forecast for here (and Exeter where we are going today).

Dry warm and sunny. 18c at the moment but supposed to reach the low 20s.

Miserable.

Not cracking the flags here either Jean, not hot or cold, just is.

Looks like being 19 degrees and dry here this morning near Dawlish Warren today. Rain from lunchtime though...
