    We have been 38+ for over six hours this afternoon. We are now down to 32c. We may go to 40c tomorrow. I really appreciate air conditioning ... and even more so our solar panels but the Sahara haze does not help

    Just read this ...


    "According to information from the Institute for Nature Conservation and Forests, between January 1 and August 14, 74,931 hectares had burned, a number that rose to 139,091.
    As of Saturday, August 16, forest fires have consumed 139,000 hectares, half of which in just two days, which represents 17 times more than the area burned in the same period last year, according to provisional data from the ICNF."

      We have a totally clear sky now, it started to clear around 5pm from the East, not burning back from the West as described by the weather forecasters.

      still the brisk nagging Northerly wind that has kept the temperature down to below 20c for the whole day, a full 10c lower than yesterday.

      Windows shut and might need the heating on this evening when sitting still.

        It didn't get very warm today, which is good and mostly cloudy with a gentle breeze temp 19c feels like 19c.

        Now it's patchy cloud and light winds from the east temp 19c feels like 19c.

            It’s obviously not been as warm today as I didn’t melt in work. One more warm day tomorrow then back to near average temps, although no or minimal rain this week.

              It was cloudy and much cooler today, which meant less watering.

              Back to 25c and full sun tomorrow.

              Shrubs are starting to go autumnal, with leaves changing colour. Or maybe they're dying due to lack of water. My azaleas have mildew on them.

                A dull start to the day, but the sun came out later for a lovely afternoon, got up to 19 degrees with little wind and no rain.

                  Have been to London all day and had a cloudy and by no means warm day with around 22c. Tonight just 10c. I closed the windows.

                  I see some rain drops in the forecast for the end of next week……….

                  @cactus_girl Almost all of my shrubs show serious signs of stress and mildew on leaves.

                      Yesterday turned out cooler than forecast as we didn't get much sun. Today is supposed to be nicely warm.

                          10c, a little bit windy, blue sky (again), up to 25c, they say so.

                          The forecast is betting on the bank holiday weekend and has the rain pictures. I’m sure it will disappear soon and replaced by the picture with the sun (again).

                                A sunny Sunday ahead, no rain, little cloud and a max of 24c. No hosepipe ban here yet so might have to take advantage of it later.
