A beautiful dry morning in Central Scotland today. Blue skies with an air temperature of 9C however in the greenhouse it's 32C. Overnight outdoor temperature was 3C.
We only got a few spits of rain yesterday and it's not looking great for today - dull, breezy, not very warm but no sign of any rain - but it does mean I might get the grass cut. Or I might leave it until tomorrow when we're forecast cool but sunny.
Doncaster, South Yorkshire. Soil type: sandy, well-drained
Overcast but mild despite overnight snow and sleet. 33F climbing to 46F this afternoon. Current snowpack measurements in the pasture averaged 17 inches, which was unexpected; I assumed we must be a foot or less at this point. Temperatures expected to be in the low 50sF tomorrow.

Metacomet soil with hints of Woodbridge and Pillsbury
Cornwall What a glorious day. Warm, sunny, not too hot. Dog and I had a lovely beach walk, loads of people and dogs making the most of it. Lots of people just walking, no dog attached. Blue sky, sun and sea like a mill pond. I managed to have a potter in the garden as well. Back to reality today. Grey, overcast, boring, heavy rain again. It looks as if it has set in for the day. A gentleman told me yesterday he was going home to build an ark! Not a bad idea.
Rain in the forecast for today. It's only just spitting a bit at the moment. Fingers crossed for some of the decent stuff. Even after a fairly wet (for us) few weeks the soil is still quite dry in the garden. I think the plants are using it up faster than it falls. Could do with a proper soaking downpour, or several.
