View Full Version : UK Summer 2016
Yep, called in and after going to bed, couldn't sleep because the temperature overnight was 20C +.
I'm wondering if it's worth having air con installed for the sake of a couple of weeks warm overnight weather per year :hmmm:
I run a mobile air conditioner every summer rather noisy works well up to 77c above that at best blowing on me just about works. No idea about fitted air con and in your neck of the woods jim you suffer less, unlike me in the south.
Today was a repeat of yesterday with wall to wall sunshine and a bit of a drop tomorrow. I hope so in work.

Dull, overcast and clouds look full of rain, yet it is warm.
Do I wear a coat to work tonight or simply carry it in the car :hmmm:
I'd toss a coin but the last time I did that it rolled under one of the storage drawers in the man cave and I lost it :)

Take it as it comes, there's nothing you can do about it anyway other than prepare and adapt.

Wage war on the sun...I give you the first orbiting sun blocker. :03:

Now there's a wise ol' sea dog. No front to speak of here Jim but what there is, well it's paved. I also prolly got the largest patio in my neck'o'the woods, good move shipmate. Good move.

If it keeps the bride happy then everything must be good :03:
Well the heat yesterday got a right royal kick up it's what ever, wow it was cool and refreshing. Just have to wait for my room to cool down now with the help of my mobile air conditioner. Next week looks mid 60's to high 60's with a possible low 70's.
Over all still popping in and out of 70f and remaining warm. The summer days are drawing to a close slowly in the South. Got your jumpers on yet you lot up North?

Nope not yet but the wife did ask me this morning if I was going to store the furniture away in the garage or just put the covers over it.

Sell it you need booze money jim. :03:
Still warm here in the South and if this is mid 60's I question that, more like 68-71f this week.
Good blast of heavy rain here in the morning now dry sunny and a little muggy.

Warm and sunny 60F :sunny:
Well I think we can put this one to bed now.
This week dry and mid 60's to top 60's.
Its been very humid here in the South this summer with the normal crazy highs in most part caused by hot air coming up from North Africa way.
I think I shall start a general weather thread for the world on Jan 1st next year so more folks can post what the weather is like in their part of the world.

Tomorrow the covers go on the garden furniture and if the weather deteriorates then it's into one of the garages with it.
