The weather

Weather forecasters are having a laugh this week. Struggling to get the current weather right, never mind a forecast ..

Isn't that every week? . Maybe it's just my local area but I swear they just make it up on the spot these days.

True. . 

Even the presenters look in disbelief at the words that come out their own mouths .

Sunny, no cloudy . No rain unless it rains ..

Just say you don't know .

We've had hours and hours of torrential rain with baking sun intervals. The poly tunel is very warm and wet!

Had what was looking like a nice early spring so started eight autos April 1st hoping for a early finish now the temps feel more like winter I have been packing them out to my makeshift greenhouse and bringing them back in at night and they are not happy about it

Aye, a few chilly nights on the cards for the next fortnight. 

 

Was planning on taking my seedlings to the polytunnel this week, but might play it by ear. They're safe enough by the window for now...

But bit of chill in the east wind still a bit of time till walking upto the start line and been caught out before going out early thinking the weathers settled then getting another cold snap we’re see.

UK weather is notoriously hard to predict due to our geographical location and because we are an island. But forecast accuracy has been improving in recent years.

 

Unfortunately our weather is becoming less stable due to climate change, which is only going to get worse. So presumably forecasting it will become even more difficult.    Sal

Just remember as soon as those evening / nights are in double figures. We are good to go . So that's gonna be late May early June i reckon.  2 weeks to May

Sub-zero nights coming next week. I'll be putting my seedlings in the polytunnel after that, to be on the safe side...

@Crow River I nearly cried when I saw the night time forecast.... Another week of dragging my early early autos inside for the night
