A perfect, warm evening here now with little or no wind and a
cloudless sky to end the day. Just about 15 hours of sunshine today.

(20:55), 21.6°C, RH 54%, DP 12.0°C, 1024 hPa (R), Wind calm.


Still 20°C at 22:40........ Nice.

Trouble is, over 30°C in the house, despite all the windows being wide
open.


You did remember to switch off the central heating, right?

Seriously though, how on earth is your house *that* hot - mine only gets
that hot in 90F weather?



Well the inside temperature of my house reached 21C yesterday evening and is
now 20.3C.
21C was the warmest it has been all year, even in winter with some heating
on it struggles to reach 18C, probably because it is usually well
ventilated, as our shivering guests would testify :-). It is always lovely
and cool in the summer though 21C was a tad warm for me yesterday.
