Where about in the Algarve, if you don't mind me asking.

And why aren't you drinking Sagres or the lethal Super Bok! biggrin

Middle of next week we're due rain in the postcode I reside in, after a week of low - mid 20's temps.

Will this potentially bring storms?
Yes - there's some potential for Monday that I'm monitoring. Maybe later than that as well (like snow - best forecast short term).

I hope you’re not spending your evenings at the tapas bar...
Kids are old enough to come with us! That story did come out, really freaked out our 10 year old daughter. Wouldn't even let us go to the adjoining apartment with all doors locked.

Storms for Wednesday. Most likely area (at present) is northern midlands, M62 area.

Did you see many, Puggit? Sadly I didn't even bother looking, being in London (ish) and all.
I did see one, but not from the expected direction. The meteors should have originated in the east of the sky, and this one went north>south!

Small potential for storms for West Mercia and Wales today. Don't expect too much.

Puggit,

Do you foresee any decent warm weather appearing again soon for Bedfordshire?
Nothing for next week, but chances for the week after...

Ignore any media waffle about a Spanish plume lasting for months. They are always temporary affairs!

After the cold but quite dry and sunny weekend, unsettled next week. Lots of Atlantic driven 'April showers' type weather.

Thunder watch towards the end of the week. Normally we get thunder when cold air pushes warm air out of the way. Guess what? wink
