We have been having nice sunny weather these days, although it was supposed to rain today. Only 16° forecast but getting warmer next week.
Gatineau is having problems, as I know from keeping track on the CBC website. Our son thinks his house will be okay, although he has been sandbagging with neighbours and the road in front of their house is closed. The Ottawa river is supposed to start going down one of these days, although they had snow+rain yesterday.

Occasional showers, puddles and mud, everything damp. Smiles on faces.

Back home after almost two weeks in sunny & warm Mallorca. Boy, is it cold here. And grey. And the weekend doesn't look promising, either: cold, and much rain. Blèh.

It is cold and getting even worse. I will be back in Lille tomorrow with wretched weather when the whole point was for the weather to be better.

This weekend seems set to be particularly cool -- only 15° forecast for today and tomorrow -- but warmer starting Monday. May is always a weird month for weather.

It is going to be a rainy cool day in Paris today. A good day to visit the d’Orsay Museum. Hopefully stop into a few shops also. It is has still been nicer than the weather at home until this expected full day of rain.

I left the rain in Paris and arrived in sunny Lille. In the time it took me to get off the train and walk out of the front of the station, a hail storm had begun. Didn't last long, luckily.

It seems as if, in Europe, we're all in the same boat. Sunshine, rain, hail, wind, ... One more week to go, says our weatherman. Yuck.

Here they've been talking about "March in May" every day except for yesterday which they said was "November."

Rumours are that the weather now in one month is how it used to be in the previous month, generally.

We were in Bayonne today and the weather was the same as here: sunny, windy and no more than 15°C.It was only 3° this morning at 7 am. We were joking that the Ice Saints are a week early.

Our first full day back home, the weather is glorious! Sunny and 15C. As the plane flew over our home yesterday, we could see there was no ice on the lake!

We got up to about 17° in Paris today -- with huge hail thunderstorms at least three times.

Downpours on and off yesterday although it cleared in the afternoon. So far today (8 am), it's about 15° this morning but very windy.

Rumours are that the weather now in one month is how it used to be in the previous month, generally. Funny you should say that, all the gardening TV and radio shows here have come to advise a 5-6 week delay in the normal planting times. The seasons are definitely confused, I have spring annuals still flowering but it is cold here now, and very wet.

It has rained about sixteen times today. Right now it's sunny but I can tell that it is going to rain again.

Alternating sunny and cloudy, with the clouds winning. It's not terribly cold -- 19°C -- but the wind makes it feel cold. Added to that is the fact that I haven't been able to get warm. The heat wasn't turned on in this apartment, so the landlady bustled in to "help", saying we wouldn't want it too warm. Oh, we wouldn't?! The thermostat is nailed to the 20° mark. I'm typing this wearing everything, scarf, jacket, etc., that I was wearing outside.

Almost excellent sunny weather for the past two days. I would remove "almost" if we had maybe 2 more degrees -- we are only getting up to 18° in Paris.

Very warm in the sunny garden today...18° according to the meteorologists but around 22° by our garden thermometer (on the shed wall in the shade)
