Default I'd rather be in Gt Yarmouth

17C at 1350 GMT and sunny in the swesterly.
11C and overcast here on SW Devon coast.

The moist SW feed is a party pooper at this location.
Should go inland and east but too much work to do in the garden.

Anyway, the Scandi High forecast for next week should be excellent for this coast.
It's all swings and roundabouts.

Cloud broke up by mid-morning to unbroken sunshine and a maximum
of 15C.

You don't have to go to Gt Yarmouth to get the sunshine in these
moist south-westerlies, Len. Just go to the other side of
Dartmoor. This has been one of the sunniest starts to March I
have recorded.

Or St Ives (Cornwall), virtually unbroken sunshine there. (Interesting satellite imagery for that area)

The satellite picture shows how effective the SW Peninsula is at drying out the air as it leaves the south coast and heads NE.
An incredibly straight line from tip of Cornwall to Pembrokeshire, clear to SE, cloudy to NW.

Damn chilly here though. Sea temp only about 9C so I have had to come indoors to warm up. :-(

I commented on that in another post, it's directly downwind of the moors, the narrow line of cloud just to the east comes through the Marazion Marsh Hayle estuary gap. Not unusual, but a strikingly good example today.

Wind just offshore in Penzance, so it's been 12C, haven't checked the actual max.

Hi Nick, did a 14 mile stroll up and down the Exe today with some rellies.
Nice easy walk in warm sunshine. Even saw a bikini on Exmouth beach which
impressed me :-)
Kite surfers were also showing their skills in the breeze!

16.7C in virtually unbroken sunshine in Wanstead. I wonder if next 6 weeks will be like last year. Was swimming outdoors in Hunstanton last April - place we were staying opened the pool 7 weeks earlier than normal

I think that would be unlikely!

If today's 12Z ECMWF is to be believed (and it's been saying this for
several runs now), it's going to turn decidedly nippy in a week or so's
time, with a Scandinavian High dominating our weather.
