Continuing poor Summer
Despite the so called improvement in pressure across the country and the
jetstream further north, this blocking High is in the damn wrong place.
Today is cool, positively cool, with sunny intervals rather than long
periods of unbroken sunshine. There is cloud, much of it too, fetching in
smartly on all levels, a bit of fair weather cumuli and upper cloud too
etc., the sun goes in frequently as the cloud is fairly mobile. It is cool a
north westerly and not summer by any means with a temperature at midday of
only 16.9C in my North East facing garden although compared with what HAS
been I suppose one has to be content. But I am not, nowhere near. Be lucky
to reach 20C today. And this in one of the most sheltered parts of the
country in such conditions, - west London.

The rest of this week has little change to offer in fact even more cloudy
days ahead. This is one hell of a poor summer even when things change from
the previous months washouts it is still poor.

Not warm enough for the hammock session I had planned. Compared to
last week it's a pleasant enough late summer late summer afternoon
here in the South East midlands. 18.3/7.9 at 1415z. Perfect lawn
mowing weather.
