Glorious day today up-to 21.5c and rising not a cloud in the sky and no wind. Is it really August Bank holiday Monday today?! this certainly makes up for the many wet and cool one's we've had over the years

 

Long may this high pressure continue we've certainly made up for the low pressure dominated summers of the past 6 years this summer and it looks like continuing into Autumn
