In Castle Donington today it is sunny with high cloud, cumulus and cirrus, 15degrees C at 9-15am.

Can you please state your location and weather.

I am curious to see the variations over the country for today.

For many years I talked to a good friend some 60 miles both West and North of me and our weather was often totally opposite. With that background, and some 28 years offshore suffering from incorrect forecasts, I would like to see just what differences there are in a day in the UK.


Over to you.

Temp 20.2C in Retford, North Notts, at 11:41 am. Sky hazy clouds, some blue patches, gentle Easterly breeze. Might be handy to ask the time of report. Regards, Dave
 
no point giving detailed weather for where i am but we have very different weather over very small distances (<5km) - can have storms all round but not here or vice versa. thats what mountains do for you.
 
about 500 miles South of you PH - beautiful here, Cloudless, calm wall to wall sunshine and plus 24C.

Bees are busy but not much for them it has been too dry for too long.
