Misty and gloomy here for most of the day. Did finally clear and had a bit of sun, but mostly cloudy. Our sparrows, blue tits and coal tits have been giving their balls a bashing as well this afternoon, but all quiet now. Raining at the moment.

Finally some sunny weather, 2 loads of washing drying in the garden :-)

Very grey and ominous after a sunny day.
Should we open an April bashing thread, or would that be discriminatory?

British- but no sun- and 15cmsnow overnight- all white again and birds galore.

I want the spring back, with grass and stuff...

gee, all that googling I had to do again here ....

at 20.10h the birds started chirping after being quiet all day. World's gone nuts.

Weather forecast for tonight: -1. Wednesday: +19

weird.....

Well, that would be a normal April ..... there's hope.

22°C here next Sunday! They better deliver!

Have you looked at the date on that weather forecast, lol?

But yes, it better- or else

April 8th?

Lovely, bright and sunny today- but snow still on the ground.

A friend is staying on the North German Coast (ex East Germany) and she said they had a massive snow storm yesterday which she never ever experienced as a child living there.

Gorgeous here too - and no snow.

Lousy 9°C outside and the first mosquito tries to get me in my bathroom? Seriously?! What happened to "you can't have it all"?!

Yeah, well, it didn't stand a chance, it will never know whether there is a summer in 2018.

Sunny, 14C today time to go morel hunting soon - run out of supplies.

They run away when they see you coming?

Not quite - but the little beggars are very hard to see - for sure. Still I am a veteran and learnt with my dad as a toddler- so they don't usually escape.

Well it all started splendidly today- sunny and 13C as we drove to physio at 10.30. But the time I cam out, mist was drifting and much darker- sun gone. Sleeting now- crazy April weather.

Yes, lovely sunny morning here too. Now clouding over and looking like we'll have rain soon. Forecast is for thunderstorms.

A friend in SW FRance told me they had an amazing storm last night - so possibly on its way.
