The official 2015 warm sunshine and BBQ thread...

[Puggit]

Northern France looks to be suffering the same weather - but a couple of degrees up on the UK.

We'll be at Chateau Puggit between Tours and Le Mans - where will you be, Bill?

[Bill]

45 minutes inland of La Rochelle.

Gorgeous day down here, probably about 22 in the sun with virtually no wind. Most agreeable.

I went to burgh island today (bigbury on sea) and got sun burnt.... Summer has arrived folks!

[MG CHRIS]

Considering when I woke up it was overcast and looking likely for raining by 3pm the sun was out and was 20c hoping for more of this.

I saw a little rain today but turned out better than the forecasts I saw.

Hope that doesn't mean tomorrow turns out bad.

I went out in the Lomax today and got really sun burnt on my face, neck and wrists. So much so that I think the shower in the morning might be difficult to bare

We were glamping in Meon, near Petersfield, Hants over the weekend. Three seperate weather apps and the BBC all promised that periods of rain and thunderstorms would roll in at different times. They seemed to disagree with eachother.

None were even close to accurate. I think there was a sorry, 15 second excuse for a shower on Sunday evening. Otherwise, warm sunshine and high, scudding clouds dominated.

Summer continues here, pics from yesterday and today.

[Puggit]

25 degrees in the Loire yesterday

I'm seeing reports of hot weather arriving mid week next week. Bbq weekend follows!

This Sunday will be rubbish though. As predicted...

[Bill]

CBA with a bbq tonight, so we had pizzas by the pool.

[Puggit]

Next Friday...

Warm and humid - widespread thunder likely

[iva cosworth]

Still hoping for weather good enough to drive to tomorrows SS near Aylesbury with top down.

"Rain clearing to sunny spells"....so says the weather on BBC red button.

I fitted new wiper blades to the Fiat today,hopefully they'll go unused tomorrow.

[iva cosworth]

Just been out on foot and starting to rain.

Be nice if it could stop by 7.30am.

[Alex Langheck]

Here in the North West, I can't remember a May so cold & windy; I've done less cycling this month than March or April.....

[Puggit]

Finally rained in France - utterly miserable drive up to Le Havre.

[Bill]

It started like that for us yesterday but thankfully didn't last long. Just got the BBQ lit for burgers tonight.

Am I missing something here? Has summer actually bypassed us this year and been waylayed by some other land mass. I'm still cycling in my winter gear. It's flippin cold.

[Bill]

Don't think so, swmbo came home early from our holiday and actually turned the heating off.

Officially summer doesn't start until tomorrow.... but they are forecasting warmer, sunnier weather for later this week.

We..will..see.
