What's Your Weather Like July 2024

Yes that’s it! @simone_in_wiltshire … if @Victoria sends us 10 degrees then we will all benefit.

 

Hi Ladies @AuntyRach and @simone_in_wiltshire . I will gladly send it your way. Luckily we topped out at 32,4c today ... for hours! Now 30,5c with a breeze. In to watch the football, Portugal v France.

Forca

 

Dry, cloudy and windy morning. Dry, cloudy and heavy rain in the afternoon, only 18c.

 

This last week or so has been feeling and looking very autumnal, not good for late June early July. Fingers crossed for an Indian summer.

Dry and the wind has dropped to a breeze at last but still the lack of sunshine, apart from the occasional glimpse. Temperature up a little at 15C/59F.

 

Light rain and light winds from the west north west temp 15c feels like 15c.

 

Anybody else think that the nights are drawing in?

 

They are but its more noticeable because its so grim most of the time long warm summer evenings just haven't happened this year.

 

Good morning all, light rain and light winds temp 10c to 15c
Precipitation 80%
Sunrise 4.55
Sunset 27.30

 

The rain stopped here at 4:30. The water buts collected around 40l of rain from the 3 sqm greenhouse roof.
10c at the moment, and it will go up to comfy 15c over the day.
@pete, one wonders why people invest so heavily into BBQ areas in garden makeovers to socialise. I have had hardly a summer where it was cosy warm in the evening on more than 2 days. Normally, it's that 1 day a year and I can hear neighbours cleaning their BBQs in the afternoon for that special night.

 

Sun is out but its pretty wet outside.
15c.
I've never been a barbecue type person to be done properly you need more than a grill and 10 sausages, which is what most appear to have around here

Normal summers I often have a wander around the garden at dusk, on those warm evenings after a hot day, but it's just not happening this year.
Even the insects are hibernating.

 

Yes, where are all the wasps?

 

13c raining, had the thunder storm at 1.30am

 

I've had a quite a few wasps, but not too many yet - we usually get most of them later in the month and htrough August.

Dry, sunny start here, but it's to be a mix again, although the forecasts are divided on whether there's to be sun or mainly cloud. O'night low was 6 degrees [11 just now at approx. 8.15 am] and the predicted high is mid teens again. Light breeze only, so it feels very calm out there.

Yesterday became dry in the afternoon after a smirry, damp morning. It was even quite sunny, with a good breeze. The high was 15, so it was great for my concreting at the side of the shed.

The nesting bees [under the corner] were getting really hacked off with me though! I'm hoping to work round them with the new cladding, and go back to it once they've all moved on. Kept apologising to them...
