Above: Large cumuliform clouds leading to heavy showers building in the distance over the North Downs as seen from the South Downs at Chanctonbury Hill. Taken around 17.00 hrs on the 15th June. It was sunny most of the day on the South Downs and across the south of Sussex, a typical situation in the summer with the Channel preventing showers forming for quite some way inland. It is the opposite in the autumn and winter with enhanced rain for the Downs and coastal locations and this helped to give a mammoth rainfall total for October 2020 of 233.2mm at Storrington.
The first issue of Weather eye in 1998.

Weather Saying for April
''The uncertain glory of an April day'. Shakespeare
With sea temperatures still low around the British Isles and much arctic ice during April winds from the north can be very chilly. On the other hand the Continent is warming up and southerly winds can bring real warmth. So April has seen many snowstorms such as in 1981 and more recently heavy snow fell on the 6th in 2008. However real heat waves have occurred such as in 2011 with values above 27C. Convective showers are likely na ny unstable air due to the warming sun and its high altitude but the atmosphere is still chilly hence often steep lapse rates leading to convective showers and quick fire changes.
