    It was a bit cooler yesterday and only briefly hit 93F/34C before dropping a couple of degrees. I saw the storm clouds approaching :blue thumb: but they passed across the other side of the field :sad:

    The rain missed us but it's very overcast at the moment and only 68F/20C

        It has just reached 75F/24C. Not as humid as it has been but very hot when working in the sun. I've given up the digging and weeding for the day.

                      After the downpour last night which lasted about 1.5 hours, woke upto this morning to clear blue skies which lasted all day. Feeling a lot fresher after the rain but still warm in the sun.
                      Reached 23'c/74'f

                        Still no rain, sunny and a mild 63F/17C at 6.30 this morning. It's feeling quite nice and fresh at the moment (had a wander round the garden) and shall start the gardening soon, before it gets too hot.
