      Good morning everyone

      It's another cool start to the day here with clear skies but just 11C. We can expect sunshine during the morning but with the clouds increasing during the morning. Then just sunny intervals as the day goes forward. No rain expected today. 20C will be our max for today.

        Brilliant sunshine and clear blue skies. The sun has just swung round enough to just start to hit our solar panels and should soon start to knock up the leccy. The washing machine is full and waiting until it is full blast on the panels. :biggrin:

                Hazy sun, calm, 21c going to the low 29s ... hopefully. We were still 30c at 11pm last night and kept the a/c going. Only just opened the windows. Under the Yellow high temp warning today.

                      Not good Vicky. It just reaffirms my recent thinking.....we have a lot to be thankful for here.

                      For me I don't have any complaints about our Summer..Ok yes it would be nice to have a bit more sunshine and maybe...just maybe, a bit more heat, but after last year's experience of living with extreme heat and a brown parched crispy landscape.....my mind has definitely decided....my heart is here in good old Blighty.
                      Now a couple of weeks of Winter Sun..:biggrin::SUNsmile:...would be welcomed, but I also love our frosty mornings....true beauty of Winter.:biggrin:

                        Bright and breezy again after showers yesterday currently 14 which is ok.
                        I remember some 20 odd years ago holidaying in Turkey, it never dropped below 100 degrees for the entire two weeks, we spent a lot of time in the daytime hanging around open freezers in supermarkets, it was like walking into an oven when you stepped outside, never again. For a couple of days it hit 122 degrees.

                          Metcheck is in the throes of an update. It's (currently) necessary to enter the first part of your town or postcode and then select the actual place from the dropdown.

                          Bright but cloudy here (about 90% obscured). No rain expected today.

                          In a few days it is supposed to be warming up nicely, but not too much. Whee! I'll believe that when it happens.

                                Cloudy with a bit of sun and a gentle breeze from the west temp 18c feels like 18c. It's nice at this temperature.
