Shock horror, a cool showery April for a change

No, you did not imagine it, it has been miserable for far too long so I haven’t ventured out much. This is partly the reason for my lack of posts, alongside a busier working life. More news to come, honest!

    Do we know what the forecast is for May? I know we need the rain but I want some sunshine too!

      Hi Finn,

      A day or two ago some of the model outputs suggested a drying out and a hint of warmer weather to come. Now, the latest expected trend is for more of the same. In recent years, our weather seems to want to be stuck in a rut, so who knows how long this spell will continue. Tomorrow looks particularly wet for some and after that, I anticipate at least some drier interludes. I imagine cool and showery with sometimes-longer spells of rain is how the TV forecasters will be describing the weather in days to come.

      Best Wishes

        Thanks Tony, I’ll keep my waterproofs handy for at least a few more weeks.

    Now you’ve all had a little taste of what it is pretty much the typical Welsh climate! There’s lovely … keeps it green though!

    May Bank Holiday Monday here in Scotland was colder than Christmas Day! I got soaked through today and quite frankly I’m fed up with wind and cold temperatures……….though I know that rain is precious and should be grateful for it………..but if it could rain during the night that would be even better.

      I would say it has not been good for man, woman nor beast this time around. I hope that some brighter skies are just around the corner.

      Best Wishes

      Re: your comment (Just seen Prince Charles and then Camilla doing the weather forecast on the BBC!) to which I had no idea what the fuss was about at the time.

      I thought you may be interested to read the Met Office view

      Regards
