Its looking like the much waited for "good weather" (at least for the
southern half of Britain) is not materialising as well as it was once
anticipated. Is a virtual collapse to altantic mobility hiding in there
somewhere? A definite downsizing and an extremely cautious approach is
apparent on the latest TV weather tonight. How dissapointing for me, if not
for the majority here who seem not to like nice settled weather (all
gardeners I guess). This Thursday, it said last week, there was supposed to
be a nice southerly with a High, of sorts, moving over France and this
expectation grew over this past weekend, even Will emitted it from his cave
on the tors but now onward fronts from the west seem to be the latest hint.
Maybe not the first 21C then after all then. Waits with abated breath for
Darren in the morning.

Yes- it seems that is the case. I read out Philip Eden's comments from
the back of the Sunday Telegraph to the Mrs and we have both been
looking forward to a couple of warmer days.
Looks like we are going to have to wait a while now - perhaps mid May

Yes I think it's going that way Robin. Probably another cold spell at
the beginning of May, before spring arrives in Mid-May.

Could be right Dave, this has been quite an on-off-on thing over the
course of the last 10 days. The early weekend doesn't look as warm as
it did yesterday, or the day before!. Like I wrote a few days ago,
there are times when 2 days is a long tome in forecasting. It can be
terribly difficult for professionals, with forecasting particular
events at 5 days, never mind for us amateurs at 10 days+!

We have had some lovely Spring days, warm enough for the beach, just
not enough of them.

I'm rather hoping for Summer by mid May
