      Had a thunderstorm, mostly thunder and a bit of lightning and light rain.
      Now it's very muggy with sunny intervals and a gentle breeze from the south south west temp 27c feels like 33c.

          Met office said dry overnight. It rained. Met office said rain today. It’s dry. I give up.

          How’s this for dealing with things in the right order? :biggrin: Get your priorities right.

              The radar shows rain above us. The sun is shining and no signs of rain.

                  The temperature in the shade in the main garden is now 37C as the breeze can't get past the trees and buildings.

                  At the bottom of the garden it is 33C. Still no rain showing for the next eight days. Plants are dying despite being watered.

                        It reached 33c but some thin cloud has come along now and turned the sun hazy so I'm guess that will be our top temperature today here.

                            We've had reasonably good cloud cover for most of the afternoon after what turned out to be a miserly few spits of rain around midday-ish, so it's been less hot and more pleasant outside than I expected. the sun's just starting to come through now so the temperature might rise.
