    Very cool wind which kept the temperature around 60C max. This N Easterly is becoming a pest as it is drying things out. my cut and come again lettuce leaves need a drink AM and PM. In the shade it is rather chilly but nice in the sun,

      Nice and sunny but still not warm enough for me.
      A nice 80F would be good, but instead we got an 18C in the shade facing north.
      If it was early May, I'd say it was good.

          Oh to be in England!! What horrendous weather we're having here! It rained practically all day yesterday, although I managed to plant out most of my flowers between heavy showers. It's been raining heavily all night and this morning it's continuing, with a heavy grey sky with no break in the cloud at all. Temperatures are low, yesterday's max was 13°C and looks like the same for today. This weather front was supposed to have shifted yesterday afternoon, but now they're saying tomorrow. It really is unbelievable and I can honestly say I've certainly never seen weather like this here in June, nor May. Behind our house runs the excess water which comes down from the mountains, after it's filled the water deposit for the 27 houses in our street. Normally it's drying up at this time of year, but at the moment it's looking like the Niagra Falls. In February this year it was gushing like I'd never seen it, all very scary, especially the noise.

              the sun has only just decided to grace us with its presence...

                  Yet another stunning day here with the temperature showing 21C. With next to no rain for the last six weeks it looks like the good weather is going to break on Tuesday. The garden needs it! :)

                    Cold and cloudy most of the day.
                    Think it managed 15C late afternoon when it tried to brighten up.

                          Well the rain finally stopped yesterday evening. Managed to plant out the tomatoes just before it went dark! Dry and calm today with a max of 21ºC forecast, although still very cloudy.
