Heads up, I think the South-East is about to get their first heavy storms of the year. Spanish plume seems to have spun up some convective action in northern France, but instead of it bouncing off the forcefield in the English Channel and going North-East to Holland, it's actually coming across on a North/North-Easterly course.

Some links for those interested:

Looks like the biggest one of the three groups is going to take the usual route to Holland though.

I think I'm going to get damp on the way home this morning....

Think I will just stick with the beer :yep:

They all bounced off the forcefield again!

Distant rumbles but nothing solid, a bit of rain but nothing decent.

Another large cell spinning up over Paris way at the moment, showing some nice meso tendancies, but will probably hit the forcefield and bounce off into the North Sea again... :nope:

36 degrees Celsius outside, 27 in the house .. arrrgh
I guess the best insulation does not help you after more than 3three days, unless you have a cave, or a big hole in the ground.

:oops: <- i'm not embarassed, it is just hot.

It was the big one yesterday and no where near what the Mail/Express said. Rather sticky & humid it was, bit fresher today along with some light rain...cough. Everyone got that wrong, heavy rain my beer belly.

I was in 37ºClast week but that was in Turkey :)

If I sea a heatwave up here I'll be sure to wave back :03:

Jim's got a tree house, lucky git. :sunny:

Walked out of work and it was pissing it down :/\\!!

Well, my Uncle just put forward the possibility of a mini-heatwave (temps of 27-28C) beginning in a week or so, so watch this space, he's usually pretty correct about these things.

Well he can't do any worse than the so-called professionals.

You must be......wrong :)

Roasting Heat Wave Starts Sunday

On the radio today we will be up in the 80's on Sunday and by Wednesday over 90's and may top the big 100 and over on Friday!

Strip off and slap on the suncream and work on that tan while drinking freezing cold beer.
