The warm dry summer continues in this S.E corner of Essex. This
temperature may be a degree or so high due to microclimate factors but I
wouldn't be surprised if Gravesend and other nearby official stations
make
30C. As is becoming the norm a walk through the woods shows evidence of
heavy leaf fall due to the dry conditions.
