h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Ipswich, GB, 16:35, 28-02-04.

Today we have had sunshine followed by pitch black skies then sunshine then a black sky then sunshine then ... you get the picture. At the moment we have sunshine with blue sky and white whispy clouds but an hour ago there was a hail storm. No sign of the snow that was forecast though.

I get the first leapday post!

58F Light breezes. First clear night in a week. Venus is very very bright! It's hard to miss as only about 15 objects are bright enough they can punch through the Angeleno nightglow. Henley's 'bright auburn sky' in his song 'Boys of Summer' is sooo accurate.

Today was warm moist and windy, but strategically cloudless until sunset, when they came in from the ocean just long enough to glow a broad bright yellow. Normally, we'd get a full-technicolor tropical sunset after the string of Pacific storms that ran through last week, so it was an odd, but pleasant surprise.

Bright and sunny

Ipswich, GB, 15:50.

Woke up this morning to a covering of snow and a frost. Both thoroughly melted by about 10 am. It has been bright and clear and sunny and mild all day - it's just like spring time.

Hi there in Australia and Great Britain. Here is the weather from Brazil, Northeast. It's crazy, not as it should be for this time of year. Strong winds come bringing in black clouds which rain down on us ferociously for a few minutes and out comes the sun again, while the heat never goes away. One pours with sweat at the slightest effort or even none. The temperature never leaves 30°C. Wish we had some snow, ha, ha. Had a lovely refreshing dip in the ocean yesterday though!

Hi there from the now Dark and Cold area of London.

Well today it was sunny but cold. It had been icy earlier in the day but it had melted by 11am.

I hope it warms up soon cos I can't deal with the cold even tho Britain has been very very mild this winter.

Bye

Sunny and about 6C, waiting for the storm...

Vancouver, BC, Canada.

Hey, it's been great weather in northeast Ohio lately! Plenty of sun , temperatures in the 50s...even the 60s the other day (that's the crazy Fahrenheit scale of the Usan Empire, by the way)!

And it's only March. Yippy skippy.

Canberra, Tuesday 2 March

About 27C, slight breeze, fluffy white clouds. Dry as a bone. It might have rained a few days ago, but I was in Sydney and missed it. Sydney had a deluge one day, and ferocious sun the next; I have the sunburn to prove it.

Good mornign from London. IT's a beautiful sunny clear day. Looking out the window, it looks like July out there but actually it's bloddy freezing. And I've just moved into my new flat to find the heating isn't working and my electric heaters just aren't up to the job! Brrrrrrrr!

Is it still cold in the U/K this time of year

A bit, yes, but it is still nice and sunny - hardly a cloud in the sky in Manchester.

Beautiful, beautiful day in Manchester today. A bit nippy in the shadows but it's glorious in the sunshine

Vancouver, BC. (7:41am)

Lovely lovely lovely. The sun is still rising, the sky is blue, and I can see snow on the mountains on Vancouver Island. Lovely lovely lovely.

Ipswich, GB, 10:05, 04-03-04 (Hey, the date is the same backwords as forwards!)

Grey, dull, damp, drizzly. Warmer but wetter.

Canberra, 9:30pm Thursday 4 March

It's now about 20C after another dry and sunny 30C day. The leaves on the (European) trees that line the street are just starting to turn to autumn colours.

Manchester, UK - 22.00hrs

Its dark, very dark and wet and very, very miserable because I am working and its a Saturday night! How is it where you are in the world, I have heard there is a life outside here!!!!!

St Paul, Minnesota Usa 16.08
37F/3C cloudy, damp. Occational snowshowers. Hope it doesn't snow enough to shovel again. We got 7 inches on thursday night. Completely unnecessary.

Sorry you have to work davido.
