This is getting ridiculous.

After a max. of 26.1 deg C on the 10th at 0800 today the temperature is already
a stifling 22.3 deg C after a min of 15.4 deg C.
Dewpoint is 16 deg C and the weather is sunny but hazy.

I thought I left all this horrible heat behind when I moved to Dartmoor :-)


I sympathise, Will. Max 22.4C yesterday, and already 19.4C at 0830 here,
and I expect my highest recorded temperature of 23.1C to be beaten
comfortably (perhaps that's an inappropriate word) today. At least it's
not too humid - dewpoint 3.7C and not a cloud in the sky.

We're just not used to this sort of heat any more
