        Pretty stable here; the last few days have been 22C with nighttime temperatures steadily diminishing. A very heavy downpour this morning (not forecast on any apps...) which meant I didn't need to water pots :) Humid. Grey (but that's not newsworthy).

                Good morning to you, Logan, and to all of the weather family.
                Good that I watered the garden yesterday evening. A rain cloud passed our garden over night. Not much, but it's visible.
                15c currently, 23c eventually. A mix of clouds and clear sky.Looks like summer has finally arrived.

                  We have still been getting sun every day and we and our guests had to move into the shade on Sunday. Yesterday was both sunny and cloudy and cooler but got uncomfortable to work in the sun in the afternoon. The ground still has some cracks in it but it has been raining lightly this morning.

                  We have had to do quite a bit of watering for the last two weeks but have only done the critical plants. Some of the plants haven't survived :noidea: - can't do everything.

                  What is unusual is the moss in the lawns. After 52 years of not bothering with the moss as it always remained green we now have a very large area of dead moss :scratch:. It is bad enough to need the use of a large petrol scarifier and loads of grass seed. Scarifier is booked for two week's time.

                    Raining, 18c.
                    Again they are forecasting sunshine and 24c, looking very unlikely ATM just like it was yesterday.
                    Nothing exists south and east of London as far as the forecasters are concerned.

                          After unexpected heavy rain yesterday afternoon/evening there is a cold North wind blowing today, broken cloud and intermittent sunshine.

                            Pleasant temperatures here yesterday (high teens up to 22C or so), mix of sum and hazy cloud with a light fresh breeze. It looks like more of the same today, then on the warm side tomorrow (up to 25 in some forecasts). Still no rain though :frown:.

                              Woke up to find it was pouring with rain. There are a few puddles so it must have been a fair bit.

                              Expecting a fair day with sunny intervals.

                              The lawns are growing fast and the grass cutters on the golf course behind us are continually going up and down. They have some beautiful greens - the grass is like velvet.

                                Yesterday we had fine drizzle all morning then it gradually brighten up till it was nice and sunny at tea time, we ate outside until it got chilly around 8pm

                                Today looks to be a repeat without the drizzle. Overcast now, 17c clearing up later. High of 22c forecast.
