Topic: Jill's gorra boss Worcester Combi! (aka the weather thread)

[John C]

Do you remember about 4 or 5 years ago it was about 22c in Feb?

Absolutely, it was a superb afternoon. I was off and was stunned by the warmth, the sun was low in the sky but the feeling on my face was brilliant.

It must have been mentioned somewhere on this site or in this thread.

It would have been my Mums birthday today and I cannot ever remember it being this warm on her birthdays.

I'm doing tip runs and its t-shirt and shorts weather

You could, but you should ask yourself if it's the right plaice for it...

Here come the sex pickerels...

I think the last one is a red herring.

That's Trout of order. So much so I fully expect this thread to Flounder now.

Eel have to do better than that.

Thanks. Looks like I've reclaimed my Perch as best pun teller.

[Rockin' around the reddebs tree]

Been a lovely day here considering it rained this morning.  It's been warm, grey and calm which is a major plus for us 😂

Mon/Tues look like it could be wall to wall sunshine so it'll be a beach walk first thing then lots of garden time.

All these fish puns are giving me a haddock.

Looking at sunrise/sunset times, noticed we've gained 2 & a 1/2 hours daylight since the December solstice, March equinox in just over a month too.

That's the most complicated I have ever seen anyone write that.

[Nobby Re-serves last year’s mince pies the bad mingebag]

Expect a sharp drop in temps next week.

Nothing too extreme, and the odds are that it will be pretty brief (2-3 days), but some model output is hinting at colder and for longer.

Day four of thick mist and drizzle here,it's like living on the set of a horror film.

[BlackandWhitePaul]

Lovely morning here, spring bulbs popping up all over the place.

Miserable isn't it. 

I need some spring warmth and sunshine but can remember saying that last year till around late June 😂

I have a pot of daffodils that I can see through the back door. I've been watching them shoot up all week every time I walk passed. I spotted the little bit of yellow this morning 

[Son of Mary]

The lawn has just had its first haircut of the year. Crocus flowering nicely.

I remember the days when February was in winter.

Yep - all my daffodils are coming up a treat, with a few showing a bit of yellow

Like to see the flowers starting to bloom and tidying up the garden but a pet hate of mine is hoovering the lawn.

[Rockin' around the reddebs tree]

Wow we're not that far away from you guys but our grass was cut on the 6th, the crocus have been and gone and the daffs are already flowering 😯

One of our camellias has been flowering since November and we have an azalea that started flowering last month.

Same here.  In fact we had so much stuff still flowering well into December the garden had more colour than in June 🤷

This particular camellia has always started flowering in December,we don't see anything on the other camellias until well into February.

The azalea has never flowered before mid April.

We've had an azalea that's been flowering since July 🤷 another that doesn't look like it will and another just starting to show some colour in the buds although that one had some flowers on it in October.

Mind you I've got a rose still flowering and so are the gazanias which aren't even meant to be hardy 😯

We have a Tiger's Eye rose that flowered into December,that and the camellia were the only colour in the garden until the daffodils and primroses popped up last week.

It's been a very strange year for sure.

[Slippers]

It has indeed,a lot of the plants that usually flower throughout the winter were destroyed by that cold snap in December.

Why would you hoover a lawn?

More models supporting the lengthier cold spell outcome now, as we move into March.

Hoover models?

Oh, right...

[Boston always unofficial]

Why would you hoover a lawn?

Leaf vacuum? Hoover is a brand name it's like saying Tannoy when you mean public address system.

Hoover models?

Oh, right...

Dam!

[sheepfest]

Why would you hoover a lawn?

Just something me nan used to say after she mowed the lawn once to help out and was told it looked like she was hoovering and not straight enough. After that she refused to ever do it again and referred to the lawn as the only time grandad hoovered. Guess it has stuck with me.
