Cloudy, cool and dull here at Southend-on-Sea this morning.
Temp 17.7°C, wind NNE, humidity 85% Doesn't bother me, but for the many who have spent all week working and commuting into London, I guess they must feel cheated. Then the heat returns Monday. The gardens are desperate for rain, especially lawns, looks like they may get some rain next week.

"Life's a bitch and then you die" Keith (Southend) http://www.southendweather.net "Weather Home & Abroad" I don't know what to think Keith, the lack of a relentless sun beating down through my bedroom window prevented me sizzling like a kebab on the top of my bed thus giving me a comfortable lie in without having to draw the curtains and thus stifle any welcomed breeze, so that was good. However now I'm up the glorious brightness of the morning is missing and life seems a tad duller with my enthusiasm to undertake a list of gardening jobs on the wane. Anyway: Yes showers possibly next week but that same forecast was made for the same time last week IIRC . Can't complain though almost one month on from the solstice and we're hurtling our way back to autumn. |

My mean temperature for July is just 0.1°C above the 30 year average, so nothing to write home about this month. Keith (Southend) |

"Life's a bitch and then you die" Keith (Southend) http://www.southendweather.net "Weather Home & Abroad" I can never understand why so many people scalps their lawns in the summer and expect them to remain green. I always raise the cut on my mower, to give the grass a chance to get energy through photosynthesis. Joe Wolverhampton. With a green lawn, except under the large sycamore were it's yellowing. |

Unfortunately I've scalped mine in parts imho the key to a good cut is an even surface. When it was really wet and sodden I kept meaning to purchase a heavy roller never did though. |

Can't disagree with that but for me the inspiration to get off my fat backside isn't there. I'm still sitting here making up excuses . I'm pathetic. Hold suns coming out , stand by your spades. |
