    Another miserable day weather wise is forecast.
    It's overcast with a wind blowing making it feel cold.
    Rain on the way apparently.
    12c.

            No, thankfully ... this is more like July! I become a hermit n July/August/September, but it has come early this year. We should go back to normal next week. :fingers crossed: We are desperate for rain, but none is in sight. :cry3:

                        It is sunny and calm. 42f 5c.

                        The guessers are saying we'll be going into the low 70'sF or high teens C. Maybe all the way up to 20c.

                            That wouldn't be unusual here in most years @pete, but we're having summer conditions this year.
                            Dry so far today, with an o'night low of 7 degrees. It was about 13 at 8am, and sunny, so I did 2 loads of washing and put them out, and did some potting on etc, before getting a walk, and it was more pleasant at that time as it was cloudy and cooler. Predicted high today is about 16, with a mix of sun and cloud.

                            Yesterday was humid with a mix of sun and cloud and a few spits of rain. Briefly reached 17. I was too busy with other jobs though, so didn't do much outside here. This afternoon might be the same....

                                I went out about an hour ago, having been recommended to take something with a hood, as it might rain a little. Took 45 minutes walk, and returned like a drowned rat!!

                                Clothes now hanging, dripping.

                                Oh yes, it's raining hard, and windy.
