Default Exeter - chilly night!

Min temp here in the Ludwell Valley last night was 4.4 C, my coldest
August temp in 7 years of records; I see that the airport AWS site
recorded 2.0 C !


You're right! Readings this morning show a minimum of 3.4°C, and a grass
minimum of 2.4°C.

These are the lowest August minimum & grass temperatures in over 5 years.

Me poor chillies won't be happy.


My chillies are now three inches high. Don't know why I bothered really, not
a chance outside up here.
Enjoy the last of the summer wine, I'm sticking to my autumn forecast of
"warm n'wet". Might invest in a new pair of wellies as I fancy we are going
to need them. Only 6C here last night with the wind keeping teh temperature
up.
