It is the equinox this weekend, after which the days become longer than the nights. The sun is as strong as it will be in mid September. It is still colder because unlike in September, the land and air in the northern hemisphere have not had time to warm up yet. At this time of year winds that come from the continent are particularly cold because the land is cold, winds that come from over the sea are warmer. In summer the reverse is true because the land heats up faster than the sea.

In France there are official ‘frost days’ .
Bit bizarre I know - especially with Climate change, but historically they are supposed to be the last days of frost. They are in May.
Our latest recorded frost here Whats been the end of the first week of June!
I still can’t get over that- it’s happened 3 times in the last 16 Springs. Enough to turn potato haulms to black mush!
It does very much complicate matters so we have plenty of fleece to hand and are always vigilant at checking forecasts.
As sandpiper says though, it is warming during the day. This week , when( if) the sun comes out fully at midday we’re forecast UV 4 - which means time to slap on the suncream/ cover up. Seems odd when there is a heck of a windchill.

Sun is out today, and Saturday was nice here. It makes so much difference when you are not trying to avoid getting wet all the time.

Finally a bit of sun yesterday that was actually warm! Shed loads of rain before it, of course. And drizzle again today. Ho hum, spring must be coming eventually. Ground is sodden.

We have just had the warmest February on record since 1779 (and failed to equal that long standing record by just 0.1 degree). The weather is currently undergoing a pattern change, with high pressure migrating north. This will probably result in easterly winds, which is a chilly direction in March. The temperature will depend critically on the source of the air - if it is from the south east it will be mild, if it is from the north east it will be cold. The models are currently split about 50:50 between the 2 options.
Unfortunately, although there should be a bit less rain than recently over the next week or so, the general pattern is still an unsettled one and the deluge could return at any point.
I just want some sunshine - we have had hardly any here in York so far this year.
