Saturday must be the day that the temperatures for May hit rock bottom. It was a dull cold day following some overnight drizzle. There wasn't a hint of brightness all day producing the coldest daytime temperature for the month of 8.7°C.
However the forecast for next week is much better so it’s unlikely that this May will be the coldest in 100 years but 20 days in it’s a very close run thing.
Despite the weather it looks like our Conference pear has set fruit in the garden. I'm hoping we’ve now seen off the last of the cold days and overnight frosts and the allotment year can get under way at last. It feels as though it’s been on hold for the last couple of months.

It feels cold again today. My son's gone off to Headingley to watch the cricket so I hope the rain holds off.
ReplyDeleteCold here again too but a little bit better than yesterday.
