Today's Weather And General Chat

[Backtrack]

Happy August 1st everyone. A new month, and hopefully with a new weather pattern to go with it. Not looking good though I must say. But let's squeeze some summer out of this month. Before we know it autumn will be here!

It's 20.3C here atm with cloudy skies. Warm across the country too, this will certainly boost the CET a little. Not going to be very comfortable to sleep in tonight unfortunately.

Enjoy!

Currently 19.9C and cloudy. A bit too warm to sleep just yet. Nice to feel the warmth though instead of something that's neither here nor there.

I'd happily take a night that was -19.9C rather than +19.9C. I can't stand the heat at night, I really can't.

Put your duvet in the fridge for an hour. Should remain cool enough until you get to sleep.

Wouldn't fit otherwise I would. That is a great idea though!

I really gotta try this at some point. I'll try on Wednesday. That's the day before shopping = no food so empty fridge.

And here we are again with another contrast.

Overnight temperature on my journey home from another gig, a constant 17C.

A recipe for disaster....

Last night was mild with a min of 16.6C, highest this year.

Currently 17.6C and dropping with drizzle. 3rd cloudy day like this in a row, tomorrow and Wednesday now forecast like that too, with temps not getting above average. Fat warm spell here. This summer is poor here now and continues to be.

[Andy Bown]

An interesting day so far with virtually clear sky to the East throughout and cloudy to the West throughout while here

there is hazy sunshine and occasional bright sunshine between layers of Altocumulus and Cirrus. Very warm and humid at

24.3c and 63%.

[MP-R]

This spell of weather is driving me up the wall! What is it going to take to shift this effing cloud! I was hoping the sun would be strong enough to burn it off as with some sunshine there could be some interesting weather readings collected - not just 21.8C.
