Greetings fellow North westerners,not posted on here for a while,normally i'd be trawling through the forums looking for signs of cold snowy weather,this year i'm hoping it stays away as I'm off with the wife to the pacific coast of Mexico in a couple of weeks for some sunshine and to celebrate her birthday , so I do not want anything to get in the way of that plane leaving.
Weatherwise it's another grey dismal day in Wigan with a temp of 8.5c, so pretty boring.

I was away in Sweden last week , before I went the grass was looking very brown and too short to cut,it's now like a jungle after the rain,but I can't cut it because i'm currently laid up with a sprained ankle that i brought back from Sweden with me ...it's all very frustrating

Isn't it problem for everyone? Our society demands more water than ever. Dishwashers, washing machines etc.
I think the water companies can improve with efficencies but so can we but they can't rain make though and demand always increases during warm weather. There is no getting away from it..
Are they telling to you not to use water? No
Are they telling you not to water the garden? No
Are they telling you not to wash the car? No
Will you be effected because you can't use an hosepipe? Do you even own a hosepipe?
Yes I own a hose pipe and Yes I will be affected...I will be seriously pi**ed off

7 million to be hit by a hosepipe ban from August 5th
I know rain has been in short supply this summer so far , but it's a bit pathetic not to mention bad management, when the wettest part of England is the first to issue a hosepipe ban.

A moderate downpour this morning , but then took the grandson to Manchester airport visitor centre where it was bone dry..However had quite a lot of rain this evening which has really helped water the grass.... Off to W Sweden (between Göteborg and Trollhättan) on friday for a week , hope the forecast is correct as it will mean lots of outdoor fun and swimming if it comes off..

Thought today was the best day of the recent hot spell,not too humid and a slight refreshing breeze has made it comfortable enough to sit out without having to seek shade every 10 minutes,garden thermometer still registering 27.6 c though
-
Clear blue skies again 20.1c

Hot,Hazy and a definite smokey smell in the air.

I know it's not official but my garden weather station hit 33.3c today,it was probably the hottest day I've experienced since I moved here in 1989 and it felt like being in the Mediterranean .It's now 21:20 and it's still 23.6c..Looks like a very uncomfortable night ahead.

Some forecasts going for dry sunny day temp 23-25c others including netweather going for 21c max and thunderstorms from 1pm with 1-2 inches of rain.... which will be correct? Currently 19c sunny hazy
No storms here today but maybe some brewing over the tops of the hills and in the northern part of our region

My family live in Birmingham and it's pretty chaotic down there with flash floods

Manchester showing 26c just now
