Not a cloud in the sky and the hot sunshine has already pushed the
temperature up to yesterday's max. of +16.2C. Unless we get some wind,
today
is going to be warm (over 21C). Sun-facing curtains drawn in
anticipation.


Evenings and nights getting quite chilly now though, as Ken has already
mentioned, so feeling a bit Autumnal, even though it's lovely out there
now.
Some North Sea murk tomorrow by the looks of it.


Agreed, but there is still a lot of "softness" in the air. We also have
September to come which is our driest month and still pretty warm. (Just 79
mm on average and up to 17.4C average max. ). Things change in October (200
mm average rainfall and 13.7C average max.).

Still feels very much like high summer here after a lovely weekend
and today's hot sunshine and cloudless sky.

You're right about September Will. It is more of a continuation of
summer down 'ere with days frequently above 20C even through to
the end of the month and you even get a few days above 20C well
into October in most years.

The switch from the September dryness to the October rains is very
noticeable.

It is the best time to go down the beach for a swim with the sea
warm and the sun softened, and the beaches quiet.

Talking of going for a swim.... Sun's out!

I know, I'm able to return to Sennen after avoidint it for 6 weeks, when it's just too busy.

Just been for a swim with the family at Perranuthnoe. Even that 'locals' beach is getting very popular now. Tide coming in (low 13:00 here) & a very, very light onshore breeze meant some nice 'warm pools' of water close in. Followed by a drink at The Cabin http://www.thecabinbeachcafe.co.uk/ . Some medium Cu on the Lizard convergence zone this afternoon didn't affect the sunshine on the beach

Max of 20.3C in Penzance today - scraping back up to near normal.

afternoon.
