There was no let up in the dull cold weather over the weekend. We did have just the briefest glimpse of the sun on Sunday and although the temperature only managed 4.3°C it was the highest since Tuesday 19 February.
Sadly the forecast for the week doesn't hold out for much of an improvement. Although the temperature may get a little warmer by the end of the week it’s well below expected as we move into March and meteorological spring.
Gardening will be on hold again this week as it’s probable that more harm than good will be done trying to cultivate wet soggy soil. On the positive side our spring bulbs are continuing to make slow progress and I think the cold conditions are probably extending the flowering period of Katharine Hodgkin.
It's so cold again today, I'm so looking forward to spring.
ReplyDeleteThat Mr Hudson tweeted today that there might be some sunny intervals on Wednesday. Don't hold your breath though!
