So I'm hoping that I should manage to get *something* to the point of
harvest.. but then again, Mother Nature may just bite me on the bum...

Fingers crossed...

Some light ground frosts are forecast for the rest of the week, but
no-one's said where...


I'm trying to remember to pop over to

http://www.metcheck.com/V40/UK/HOME/

Put in the post code, click a button and hey presto, up comes a very
detailed weather forecast that I've found to be remarkably accurate most of
the time. Much better than the TV weather forecasts.. I have coverings for
the plants at the ready.

Wow, thanks for the link Helen - very useful

You're most welcome. It's the cycling... knowing the weather forecast is
very useful!

V. mild frost here this morning. No damage but just a bit of a warning
not to be complacent.

We've had a few snow flurries today but they've had over 75cm just south of

BTW haven't forgotten about the 9yr old cheddar!

Pretty handy for gardening and nurserymen, too. Thanks for that one.
I've looked at it and bookmarked it, too.

Hmm, I've never been that impressed with the Metcheck forecasts,
compared to the Beeb website ones

Another very useful and often more accurate site, though slightly more
difficult to manipulate, is:

http://www.xcweather.co.uk/

You just need to identify your nearest aerodrome!

They work fine for me. I also like the xcweather site Kate has posted. The
Beeb forecasts are out too often for my liking.
