Default [WR] Haytor 3/7/06 (hottest day of the year so far)

Well after yesterday's terrific morning thunderstorm giving 18mm rain we had a
stifling hot day today with a max. of 26.0 deg C and a dewpoint over 18 deg C at
one time. Quite hot and stuffy for these parts. Mind you I was in Guildford
Surrey University at the weekend and when I left Sunday afternoon the car thermo
was reading 32.0 it then rose to 32.5 at Camberley. Thankfully at home it was a
more tolerable 21.5 deg C. I couldn't get over how brown and dead the grass
looked in Guildford. I've just come in from cutting mine this evening as it is
now growing quickly again.

Completely cloudy now and quite sultry at 2100

Temp 20.6 deg C
Dewpoint 12 deg C
Variable 2 knots of wind.

Sweaty cheers,

Will.
