It reached 29.7C today, but in mid-afternoon the dewpoint was way down
at 7C - making the heat far more bearable than last Sunday.

Hi Paul

Count yourself lucky with having such low humidity.

It reached 29.4C and the humidity and dewpoints have been rising all day.
The highest DP was at 16:00 with 16.5C.

It is now a warm and sultry evening. Indoor temps over 30C, and that is with
all the windows and doors open. I suspect it will be difficult to sleep
tonight.

Currently @ 20:00, 26.4C, RH 54%, DP 16.2C, 1015.7 mb (F), Wind calm.

Meanwhile high up on Dartmoor not too far from you Nick I have 18.8 deg C RH 73%
and DP 14 deg C
Day max 25.0 deg C (which is high for up here).

Inside temperature 22.2 deg C but with the windows wide open and a 6 knot wind
that will cool nicely tonight.

I don't expect to sleep much tonight either, due to excited anticipation of a
bit of thunder :-)

ATB,

Will.

Hi Will

Your bit of altitude makes all the difference.

It's still 22.5C outside even though it is now 22:30. Trouble is, there is
no wind to blow a bit of cooler outside air through the house, though it has
dropped inside (downstairs) to 29.8C. It feels much warmer upstairs!

I've noticed there are a few towering cumulus clouds around in the twilight
sky. I suspect a storm or two is brewing not too far away.

Currently at 22:40, 22.5C, RH 60%, DP 14.0C, 1016.4 (F), Wind calm.
