Looks like the back end of Langney to me.

 

And you'd be right ✅

 

It's the grasslands East of Lottbridge Drove, South of Willingdon Drove, West of Sevenoaks Roads and North of St Anthony's Avenue.

 

It started off hazy, but cleared to a bright, sunny day.  Nice enough for a pub lunch in the beer garden of The Cricketers at Berwick 👍

Me too.  Went on to re recall about Bra wars when licences were needed to import bras. Peter Mandelson was EU Commissioner then.

Strange how the mind works.

Calm and warmer, no jacket required between light showers.  There is lots of wet muddy ground about though.

 

Some lambing snow to be coming before March is out. 

[Paws4Thot]

Quite sunny but a chill wind - West of Scotland.

[Ootohere]

Very heavy rain through the night and a much nicer morning early on.

[Ootohere]

Eventually the Daily Express and others that have been forecasting unusual snow events right through this month were going to get it right.

In the North East of Scotland Snow on high ground and very wet lower down later today and tomorrow. 

So just a little late taste of Winter early into Spring after what has been a pretty uneventful Winter.  So just the same old same old.

 

No doubt someone will get caught out someplace because after all there is just 'Weather Warnings' coming through on phones and on the weather on the radio and TV. 

[Ootohere]

I was checking the Webcam for how it was looking at the Lecht pre snow coming in.

 

Caught these going down the road.

Like you say they're bound to get it right at some point  

[Lady Elanore]

If the headlines simply said "More rain expected and it will never end" they would be much more factually correct 

[Ootohere]

The snow has started on the high roads, but i have only the A90 to drive later to Dyce Heliport and back by Midnight maybe.

That will just be flooding roads and temp near freezing by the time i get home. 

[Ootohere]

The Snow gates will be getting closed later on. 

Likely on the A93 Glenshee / Braemar as well.  Maybe on the A9.

its just raining constantly over here. 

so bad yesterday my neighbour told me its the first day since he installed his 1st solar panels that they generated exactly 0 power. even on bad days hed get a little trickle, but yesterday was a complete nil...

[Ootohere]

I am holding off a little before heading out.

Right now it is heavy and rather wet sleet and blowing in the wind. 

 

EDIT.

Lunchtime.

Happy Easter.  It is lovely morning.  Not a breath of wind or clouds.  2 degrees C.    Even a chance of snow later this week.  Oop north.  

[Ootohere]

What a wonderful day it became.

People out as though it is a summers day.  It is a lovely lovely evening.  The extra hours evening light makes such a difference.

[Gaz]

Yeah, beautiful day down here too.  Sunny mid-teens T shirt weather 🌞  Tortoise outside for most of the afternoon 🐢  Got a bit of gardening done too, replacing a bottle brush shrub that couldn't cope with our windy weather.

Mid-teens is T shirt weather???

 

Adelaide, South Australia had an unusually warm Easter with temperatures into the mid 30's and little wind for nearly all the holiday.

Since we have not had any measurable rain locally for over 60 days and no suburban runoff into the ocean the sea is really clear and like a millpond, so we indulged in a lot of swimming and kayaking from our local beach  

A cold front went through, late Easter Monday, dropping temps to more seasonal high-teens meaning long sleeves for me at work today.

 

Over the weekend we also pruned our bottle brush which is doing its best to become a full fledged tree.

Low teens is tee-shirt weather, at least when it's calm.
