its just winter going out in a rush - from March 1st its blue skies and 20C all the way!! trustme, my piece of seaweed is wet that's hanging outside

I see the 3 weather forecasts that I watch have all downgraded next week - still looks like quite a but of rain - but temps are coming up. My piece of seaweed has gone!

Oh great!! I am flying out of Faro tonight. Not looking forward to it!!!

Well the severe weather we were supposed to have in the West Midlands doesn't appear to have happened. It's a bit grey but quite mild.

Just arrived back to the UK. The flight was a little bumpy, but nothing too bad. Carvoeiro is great whatever the weather, so enjoy it all of you lucky people who are still there!

The weather here wasn't as bad today as forecast and we managed to play golf. Out to the Algarve on 9 march so roll on the good/better weather. Look forward to retrieving the garden furniture from the pool

Please could you people in Big C continue to update us with damage reports -- hopefully minimal. In Dorset on the south coast, it was a reasonable day although we had been expecting mayhem. Along the coast towards Kent, they caught it badly, as did the east coast.

Very calm today - a light shower at 1500 hrs and rain forecast tonight but the wind has subsided.
