Another Bank Holiday Monday and once again, it's raining here in Edinburgh with a temperature of around 12°C.

A beautiful calm and sunny morning again with warmth already being felt from the sun.  15c and rising.  Yesterday peaked just over 20c and stayed at that for a good while.  Today looks like being a repeat and possibly temp getting a degree or two higher. 

Am I the only one on here with good weather?

It's 18.1C but cloudy, with rain forecast to spread in later.
Whether it will is another matter but yesterdays forecast was accurate enough.
The radar suggests it is still about forty miles to the east and a small blob to the north of me.

A cloudy day today after the very pleasant Sunday. On the plus side it’s not cold at 13.8°C currently.

Damp. Far from the 16 hours of heavy rain forecast by MetO (and several hours of heavy rain from GFS), the reality so far is patchy light rain with the odd brief heavier burst. 1.2mm so far today, and it's currently 13.2, dew 11.9. The high so far is 14.2.

Plenty of rain here,  just one or two drier interludes. Puddles in the garden borders again. Fortunately I have had the greenhouse to clear of stuff stored over winter and tomatoes planted out (already flowering having been potted on) so not a complete waste of a day

Here in Edinburgh, the rain has now cleared away but our late spring permacast hell goes on with a temperature of around 14°C.

A warm sunny day, 19C and seemed hot in full sunshine. A morning gardening, afternoon walking on a nature reserve - just by Short Ferry - the farm that was so badly flooded recently - and next to my favourite brewery, Ferry Ales. Came home to see a Red Kite circling over our garden. Perfick.

Big thunderstorm where I am now Pudsey, Leeds.  25mm rain fallen in 30 mins , flash flooding.  Not seen rain and hail this heavy in a long time in this country. 
Looks dry at home 4 miles away on the camera!

Right up there with the heaviest rain I've ever seen earlier. Still lightning and thunder now - the last one shook the windows!

46mm in a couple of hours and still pouring down.

Finally at long last, we have a bit of sunshine to end the day here in Edinburgh.
