This time last year we had temps reaching nearly 20 degrees in the SE, having said that, it was about the only warm spell we had. Fingers crossed it's just a little shy at the moment but promising a better summer.
In South West France, Dordogne, you would be thinking Spring had arrived. It thought it had about 10 days ago, but it changed it's mind. Zero temps every morning and pouring now. A few daffodils, crocuses, snowdrops are on the way out. Tulips that are meant to flower in April are just poking out 1" tall. We've had snow several times.
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.
Same here, Busy-Lizzy, the only things blooming are snowdrops and winter aconite, everything else is still in hibernation. Snow showers again right now!
