The wet and windy, with occasional snow, 2022/2023 thread

Atlantic weather week coming up. Very high rain totals for western areas, SE will escape the worst.

Pffft. I'm in a much posher spot than Emmer Green.

It’s the spring equinox today!

Six months of more light than dark, you absolutely love to see it

I've switched the (electric) underfloor off in the kitchen and knocked the thermostat down a degree on the central heating, so it's barely firing at all now. Did that yesterday, nobody seems to have noticed...

Glorious dog walk in a t-shirt and sunglasses today. Windy but otherwise acceptable on the south coast.

Same. Mind, it turns out it's mostly moss rather than grass, but I'm sure I can sort that out.

Let's just say thanks for keeping this thread going...

Got some washing on the line before my first meeting this morning, when the suns out here in south oxon it's beautiful but then it goes behind a cloud for a bit and gets colder.

I have a garden log cabin workshop to get assembled & treated / weather-proof, ideally by mid April or I'm going to start running into bother with storage- I reckon 3 consecutive calm, dry days should be enough to get it done... I don't even mind if it's cold! Unfortunately it's looking like a complete impossibility at the moment. Each time I check the weather it just continually shows rain for the next 14 days

It was delivered in Feb just at the end of the last cold spell and since then I don't think we've had a single 24hr period without either a downpour or high winds or both here in Oxfordshire. Winter can officially do one.

Rant over!
