    Just went from a beautiful blue sky to an apocalyptic black sky with lightning aplenty and huge peals of thunder up here in Yorkshire. Big, sweet drops of rain falling now and it’s cleared the air nicely. I might get a decent nights sleep tonight if this keeps up.

    Managed to get rained in the pub for 6hrs. Fortunately the wife was very understanding of these freak micro-climate conditions

    That’s freaky - I only managed 3 hours (plus 2.5 hours at lunch that she didn’t know about...). Was particularly moist earlier.

    Monsoon has arrived on Kent/Sussex border just after I said “it didn’t rain much after all last night.”

    Surely it's not unusual for this kind of weather.

    Just went out for a walk in my normal attire from the last couple of weeks and had to go back and get a hoodie to wrap up.

    With a ‘feels like’ temp of 15 degrees instead of 30 it feels bloody freezing!!

    With the recent drought, I hope he sings about the brown, brown grass of home...

    Feels so much more comfortable today. My office was 34 degrees the last two days and very hard to work in. Hope we don't get those temperatures again this summer.

    Heating up again next week, into the weekend and the week after.

    Looks like this is just a short interlude

    I dont get this at all

    This country is beautiful we have fantastic coast lines amazing countrysides and cities yet the only thing that lets it down except the pond life stabbing crazy pricks in some of it is the weather, you just cant be sure of a decent bit of sunshine

    its tough shit that we have to work in it , i have had to put up with a hot office and working outside in the heat that caused us enough issues in how long it took for us to get stuff done

    BUT come on its been glorious to see the kids having fun in the pools in peoples gardens the seasides heaving putting money into the economy

    the countryside the same

    i want it to be back to 35 degrees id take 40 if we had to for as long as sept or oct abnd i want it every year for 10 to 12 weeks a year

    its going to be shitty and cold and miserable soon enough , drove me mad the amount of people saying we could do with rain

    no we cant we put up with that for the last 20 yrs of summer

    I do like some sun, but it was too hot and humid last week, especially in an office on the first floor of a barn , working with 8 people, all with computers and fans going. Mid 20s would be nice and we do need the rain. Gardens need it and if we had prolonged spells with excessively high temperatures, we wouldn't have enough water, that wouldn't help the economy. Our infrastructure cannot cope with very high temperatures.

    Yes, walking in the countryside, the farms are a sorry sight, with shrivelled crops everywhere
