Hope all you Northerners are coping with the heat.

What heat? Sure, parts of europe have been having higher than normal temps lately, but here July has so far been rather chilly. Had to turn the heating back on. But that won't make the papers, they only print that which aligns with the official agenda ...

G'day Fellas.
It's back. How do we stop the world from wobbling? It would be the same weather all year round.
Minus 6C yesterday, minus 4C this morning. Might even crack double figures at lunchtime!

Minus 7 when I got up at 5am. It's 8am now and still minus 5. I'll wait till it gets to +5 for a ride.

I slept in a tin shed overnight on the farm. A nice white frost this morning. It is usually about 1 deg warmer in the shed.
I had thawed out by midday.

musky our weather is schorcio today 28-30 but our weather persons seem to only be able to tell us what it is on the day, when they try to tell us a weeks worth 9 times out of 10 they get it wrong and get paid for getting it wrong.

G'day Bergs.
I'm sure they don't have windows in their buildings.

Meanwhile here in Cornwall we had 30°C yesterday and today the mercury looks to be heading in the same direction. These temperatures are known as a Heatwave in the UK.
