Default Very little variation in temperature this month.

No complaints at all from me about the current weather. Anything
vaguely summery is fine for me, i.e., temps above 20C, light winds
(unless temp well above 20C), bright, is fine. In the Hampshire area
it was decidedly "bad" from July 27 to August 4, due largely to
suppressed temperatures, and much better since, barring the odd day.


No complaints from me either, especially considering what July was
like. There was a similarly 'bad' period here from July 26th till August 2nd
with low temperatures, two days were only around 15.5C!
This compounded with some heavy rain and relatively little sun made
for a a rather unpleasant summer week.

From a purely 'how does the summer feel' perspective August so far has
been pleasant enough, though as we live in very different parts of the
country the absolute temperature values we consider to be 'pleasant' will
diifer according to what we are used to.
