Torrential rain this morning but seems to have faired up and sun is shining now.

Lovely and sunny in Kernowland but a bitter easterly wind that’s set to be here for the remainder of the week. :(

I think we've had our first full day without rain.

It’s warm again
The easterly wind has gone.
The lanes are filled with wild flowers
Everyone out n about has a smile on their face.
It’s days like this that make 7 month of dismal winter worth enduring.

We had a few drops of rain yesterday between the sunshine. Back to sunny again today, and 24-25c in prospect next week.

We could really do with a bit of rain now, to be honest. Yes, it snowed over winter, but the last time we had proper rain for more an hour or so was October.

Finally raining here. Started night before last, rained steadily yesterday and due to continue for another 24 hours. Annoying for work (forestry machine driving) but it is needed.

That Baltic northern blast ( very cold and wet with sunny intervals ) has at last relented and we're back to our most usual May weather which is constant rain and a wee bit milder.

I pitied the poor group of cyclists I met on the ferry coming back from my Cheshire cycle trip. Although they were heading south down to Rosstrevor area so maybe not as cold as up here at around 5 to 8°C. In saying that I've been getting a fair bit of cycling in that weather. When you warm up through the exercise you can pretend it's England or somewhere warmer (if you don't look at the rubbish in the verges ) just don't stop....
