        Now it is 37,6c so that's 99,7F for those who can't convert ... I am missing sitting out in the evenings.

          21C; overcast; muggy-ish. Got the mowing done finally! The weekend is forecast 29C due to remnants of a tropical storm. At least it will be brief.

                Good morning Logan and all others.
                There was a bit rain yesterday evening, but not much.
                Sunrise 05:42
                Sunset 20:42
                @AuntyRach You are right, it goes now down rapidity. By the end of the months, it will be 19:50.
                I wish I could stop Earth, now. It's just perfect.

                Looks like we are heading to a couple of days with some rain.
                Today,14c currently but going up to 21c with some rain eventually.
                There will be an unexpected heat coming over the weekend, which is good. It will help to get some more tomatoes ripe.

                    Yesterday afternoon we finally got 30 minutes of rain :hapydancsmil:but it didn't seem to do much to the ground. I had a stroll around the garden at midnight, by torchlight, and the slugs were dancing in the wet grass of the back lawn. I collected 154 of them and sent them on holiday to the ditch across the road. Just to make sure their friends on the front lawn didn't miss out on the holiday 102 of them joined them.

                    A cooler day forecast today but getting hot for the weekend.

                      Again another sunny start.
                      Not due to last.
                      13c, again definitely feeling like autumn already.

                        Damp, cloudy start here. O'night low was 12 degrees [13 just now at approx. 7.35 am] and a predicted high of around 15 to 17, depending on which forecast is more accurate! It's to be bright this morning and wet later, so fairly normal for us at this time of year, with more gusty winds at night and into tomorrow.
                        We've only had a couple of days with those cooler, single [or near single] figure nights, and sunnier days so far this month @pete. It's been very mild for us. You can usually feel a change in the air from early August, signalling autumn, but that timing's getting later and later.

                        Yesterday turned out to be mainly dry - some smirr etc in the morning, but largely dry and sunny in the aftn. with a high of 18/19 degrees. Strong gusty winds all day.

                                Not very nice today. Max 19c with cloud and showers/rain. Quite breezy still. I think it will be an indoor day or maybe an in greenhouse day having a cleaning session. Why are there so many cobwebs?
