Weather

but it is not spring yet @Lab_adore...but true it does reflect spring type weather...rain and more rain here for the foreseeable week and low temperature. Well for here anyhow. Of course the girls still want to go out no matter what the weather is doing outside....

Hope everybody in UK is keeping cool/dry depending on what you are about to get hit with from the sky. And hopefully no one is impacted by the floods...

So tempted to sleep outside tonight but the last time I did that without a tent(aged about 22) I was eaten alive by insects, so not to be repeated.
F suggested we did that last night to look for the perseids meteor shower. I was tempted but knew we’d get bitten by insects. I still have two nasty bites on my arm from last week

It really had a feel of spring today, Steve and I were in t-shirts most of the day - even inside. It's just gone 3.00pm and cooling down now but it is a sign of things to come....soon! Steve put Randall into the pool (Randall is our roving robot who randomly removes rubbish from the bottom of the pool). The water is still a chilly 14 degrees so a few weeks yet before the solar heating can get it up to swimmable temps

I hope the heat and humidity is calming down over in the UK

Same here today. Our walk way beautiful this morning, we've got all the washing on the line and our windows have been open all day.
 
Wondering if all these very big thunder and lightning storms are unusual weather patterns for the UK, is it a normal thing that only effects me now because Homer gets scarred? I don't think of British climate has having thunderstorms, lots of rain though. Maybe that's my own perception.

We first lived in Cape Town SA I remember a mild climate with mostly winter rain and cold front storms, I don't remember big thunderstorms there. Then when we moved to the hotter more sub tropical Northern part of the country there was a very loud summer tropical thunderstorm right above us. I remember it so clearly because my younger brother was only 4 at the time and he got very scared and angry at God because God was angry in the sky. He had never experienced a proper loud tropical summer thunderstorm until then.
