When does this thread officially go 'dark' ?

Although there is still chance for one last blast of warm, these last two days, as far as I'm concerned, have heralded the onset of Autumn and Winter proper.

For East Berks / Maidenhead, these last two days have seemingly provided more rain than we had over the whole May to Sep period. But the biggest teller has been the temperature. Last night out on the bike (pedal) the Garmin Edge showed a low of 8.4c! It was lovely.
It's only people like you keeping it alive wink

This week will be dry and sunny by not especially warm. Frost possible tonight and tomorrow.

Wind starts to swing around to the South - Weds and especially Thursday will be decidedly pleasant!

If it was me, I'd shut the office in those temperatures.

Puggit, can you help me out with a long range forecast for marbella, i’m getting married on the 29th and weather is sunny on some websites and on one it shows a few showers.

Your help is appreciated.
It's a touch too far out at the moment for any kind of accuracy. The good news is that I can't see any hiccups in the works at this point. I'll try and remember to keep looking.
Thank you sir. I did read that any type of accuracy further than 3-5 days was a bit of a long shot anyway.

How we looking Puggit?

Thanks

Weak high pressure, jet stream over Scotland. Current indications show a light wind from the East...
