Just been round the first ever market our village has ever had. It were bloody 'ot.

28 degrees here and a bank holiday. We drove with the top down to Xanten for ice cream - half of Kreis Kleve were buying ice cream but somehow we got served really quickly.

T-shirt weather here and yesterday was singlet and shorts weather for the run.

Beautiful here this morning but storms moving up the Rhine valley, due here this afternoon. Blitzortung puts them south.west of Mulhouse just now.

It was a very pleasant 20C yesterday in darkest Suffolk, and the sun put in a cameo appearance. I even went for a bike ride. Today, while not cold, we're back to rain and dull skies. Bah!

Just changed an appointment for covid vac. from tomorrow to Saturday as thundlesofrumber and heavy rain forecast. Getting there and back could involve up to 4½ - 5 miles walking, much of it on quite exposed, windy roads.
Prolly be fine tomorrow and pissing down on Saturday now.

Back to the status quo ante; 11C and pissing down. Was that summer, I wonder?

Having had rain for most of the day and almost all the day at 9.4°C, now that the non-sun is on thermometer housing the temperature has romped all the way up to 9.4°C and the rain is raining.

80% chance of rain for the entire bit of tomorrow when I'll be in a position to go to Mr Sainsbury’s House of Toothy Comestibles.

Arse.

Wet here too, should be better tomorrow. Today's for mounting mudguards and re-proofing the Carradice.

Wet. Soggy trousers. Hates it. Though the antique Gore-Tex jacket still seems to do its thing in spite of being unused for about fifteen years.

Nearby Knaresborough was flooded yesterday afternoon by 50mm of rain inside one hour. In York we could hear the thunder of distant lightning and much later some light rain fell.

A supercell formed over Haguenau, ~20 km south of us, a couple of days ago. Gulp.

Yesterday I rode to a friend's house in brilliant sunshine. While there, it poured down. Then I rode back in brilliant sunshine. Then it rained so hard a neighbour's car alarm was set off. But today it's almost too warm for a jumper (other than indoors of course, never gets warm in here).

Was sunny and warming on Friday so I finally turned the heating off. Was sat under a fleecy blanket last night but today capitulated and told the heating to come on for a couple of hours.
This weather isn't helping me stop being torpid and doing stuff...

Mr Larrington · « **Reply #3691 on:** 07 May, 2024, 06:07:00 pm »

Almost warm enough for the fan to be required in the Estate Office this afternoon

rafletcher · « **Reply #3692 on:** 07 May, 2024, 07:47:08 pm »

Heating back on twice a day rather than all day, duvet reduced from 9 to 4.5 tog.

According to my faceache memories, 2 years ago I'd finished several weeks of fence painting. This year it hasn't even got started thanks to the poxy weather.

Cudzoziemiec · « **Reply #3694 on:** 07 May, 2024, 10:08:45 pm »

Very mild this evening. Almost like May.
