Cloudy skies today and about 10C, light rain showers possible. Next door their daffodils are in full bloom throughout their many beautiful gardens.

Pouring with rain. Mind you I sowed a load of veg seed yesterday so it’s good for them.
Not good for the coronation watchers.

I think it is the end of days. We are lucky in Europe to just whimper a little bit, but I have been watching the reports about the worst heatwave in history in Indochina and the rest of Southeast Asia, the floods in Pakistan and the Congo, not to mention Madagascar, South Sudan and Mozambique, the fires in Canada. Meanwhile there is the worst drought ever in Chile and numerous floods in Brazil.
Perhaps Donald Trump, who didn't believe in climate change, will have answers to all of this when he becomes president again.

Storms. Rain and hail. Knocked out our TV and electric cooker.

It rained most of the day, which is rare. Normally we have a succession of showers with intermittent clearing. At the moment, everything is dry again.

We had some rain this morning -- just what we needed. Now it's really windy but still 17° at 9pm. More rain forecast for tomorrow.

I didn't succeed in finding a cloud. But there is some wind.

It rained for much of the day in Paris but now it is sunny.
As you know whatagain, it is a shame there are no clouds on the Mediterranean coast, which is having one of the worst droughts in history.

Absolutely, although the worst hit area is around Perpignan.
Meanwhile, we had some rain this morning, a few drops this afternoon, some wind and right now (8:30 pm) it's 17°. More rain forecast over the next few days.

For me here in Herefordshire it remains a Miserable May . Never known such almost continuous crap. As I write this ; thunderstorms and hail are bombarding me .

Hertfordshire is no better.
Grandson should have played 8 games of cricket by now. He’s played one.

Seems like we are back in April, which is fine after all of those times we have been two months in advance on the calendar.

Yesterday we had thunder and heavy rain. More rain today but interspersed with blue skies. There were some stunning clouds...didn't take any photos because they were bubbling into different shapes really quickly, I half expected a huge spaceship to emerge....

The weather has been reasonable today. Nothing special.

Well, there was lots of sun, so I consider that a big plus after several days of rain.

I'm in Glasgow for a few days. Today the sun has shone all day, up to 20C. Bar/restaurant after bar/restaurant has packed tables outside, as if it were Italy, and there's a sudden preponderance of short shorts and skimpy tops. I've never seen so many tattoos.

Meanwhile, they are pretty much dancing in the streets of Montpellier where it is finally raining.

Oh ha ha Mick!
We are mostly overcast with the occasional glimpse of sun which is BAD BAD BAD! We have had a massive power-out starting at 3am this morning. The Solar batteries are near dropping to 40% with the news we will only get power after another 5 hours. It's quite cold so looks like I'll be heating up a pot of soup on my Induction plate which is linked to solar power.

According to my phone app you have a couple of sunny days coming up.
Here it’s a chilly north wind but fairly sunny so not too bad. Was able to get a lot done in the garden.

The weather is reasonable in the afternoon, but in the morning the meteorologists are saying "it feels like March."
