Default Hose Pipe Bans ?

Anyone got any hosepipe bans in force yet ? Wonder how long it will be
before they come into force ?

Also they are predicting a Thundery blip tonight, anyone got any thoughts on
where the most likely areas are to suffer any storms ? Midlands maybe (hope
so !!) ?

Any predictions on how long and when this Heatwave will end ?

Before talking about a start or ending of a "heatwave" you first have to
define it, I guess! Maybe it's about time to find a proper definition for
the different UK- area's.

I've always defined a "Heatwave" as 10°c or more above average temperatures
for at least 3 days. (We don't usually get more than that in the UK!)

Dunno if it's right though!
