  1. 20c, cloudy, muggy. But managed to cut the grass after 2 weeks out of the country. The cut was like the 1st one in early Spring! Couldnt believe how long it was, but abs full of weeds and clover. The damned lawn was only re-laid 5 years ago and it's a right mess.
  2. Love spiders, but my wife hates 'em - "Chuck it out! Chuck it out!".
  3. 14c and sunny. A good day to dry the hoilday washing. Arrived home yday eve and i was surprised how normal the temp was inside the house, after the Sept heatwave. Opened all windows and the house was cool within an hour. I had expected the heat to have stayed in the house, but no. Thankfully.
  4. 23c here, mainly sunny, some high wispy cloud about. High humidity though, at 82%, which makes it feel more like 32c. Enjoy the day, folks
  5. Too hot for me, Dan, these days. My tolerance to temps past about 28c is waning. I dont mind it down here or in Fuerteventura because it's more than often a dry heat with an Atlantic breeze. And i put up with it in the Caribbean, because, well, one has to. 30c at home, usually (quickly) becomes stifling and our house gets too hot, unless the late evening cools quickish. Enjoy!
  6. Still have max temps of 23/24c here. A few degrees under what we've experienced in previous 12 years or so, for here, in early Sept. Humidity was up at 80% though and in full sun it felt more like 32c! Been sunny with cloud cover coming and going, but still managed to escape any showers that may have been in the vicinity. Fully expecting the house to be stifling back home, for when we return next Tues. Enjoy your 30c temps folks and stifling rooms; having just spoken to out lad via vid call they're fed up of the high temps, with the kids not sleeping great and waking up early.
  7. 24c, mainly sunny but can see a few showers out at sea. Biggest change here today is the humidity; has shot up to 84% according to local weather forecast on my phone.
  8. Oh defo. Sat by the pool in full sun and it feels like 30c. 2 weeks in The Algarve or 2 weeks sat at home in SG or Bristol? Hmmm...
  9. Just seen a vid from a friend who owns a hotel in Corfu - absolute torrential rain there today.
  10. Stunning day here. Temp of 23c, a nice breeze. Not as hot as 'at home' but good enough esp as forecast is wrong again.
  11. Oh, it's been nice enough and we've escaped the showers. I know further North from here it's been worse on and off the last few days. And up they go!
  12. 21c, mainly sunny, but threat of showers remains. Expected 'high' of 23c today. Yesterday eve after dinner the bar we use was packed inside, as it was too cold outside with a strong breeze. At 10.00pm last night air temp was only 18c, but the wind chill made it feel more like 12/13c. Very unusual for The Algarve in early Sept.
  13. 20c, sunny, a few clouds in the distance and a cool breeze for this time of the year 'down here'. Dodged the showers though; weather forecasters off the mark for 2nd day running here. At the mo The Algarve coastal towns are escaping the deluge hitting parts of Spain from this Iberian Low. We could see plenty of 'high riser' clouds from here, prob about 20 miles inland from the Algarve coast, that looked laden with storms. Likely Silves, Messines area i reck.
  14. Well, yday turned out gorgeous, no rain or showers, and a high of 25c, clear blue skies. So hoping the same happens today.
  15. Only 19c this morning and high of only 21c forecast for today. Cool for The Algarve in early Sept. Showers are forecast; we seem to be less affected by the Iberian Low, compared to Spain.
  16. Yeah, been coming here for same 2 weeks in Sept for prob 12, maybe 13 years, and usually we might get one day of rain or showers.
  17. Usually nearer 28c down here, The Algarve, in early Sept with no threat of rain or showers. Showers and thunderstorms forecast for next few days as the drier, hotter weather 'migrates' to Blighty.
  18. 24c, sunny, breezy. The forecast showers never arrived today. Next few days look dodgy though.
  19. Clouds rolling in from the West here, ahead of tomorrow's forecast thundery showers.
  20. 24c, clear blue skies but looks like the UK will be 'stealing' the good weather - we have thundery showers forecast from Sunday to Wednesday. We've been visiting The Algarve in early Sept since 2010 and normally see little rain, maybe one day out of the 2 weeks. Looks like we're in for worst few days since holidaying here.
  21. 30c, sunny, breezy. A typical Algarve day
  22. Yes. The equiv flight today, took off from Bristol on time. The plane actually is an early one coming in from Faro, then turnaround takes us out there, leaving at 09.10 tom...hopefully.
  23. Just tuned in to TNT sports to watch the Spurs/Bournemouth match and can see it's torrential. We've got away with it here, so far today. Cloud and Sun, 18c.
