Showoff UK 2015 Summer

Good news if you like it hot, South of the UK set to hit mid 80's and up North set to hit top 70's and maybe 80.

Its going to be a scorcher but only for a few days.

It's 88 outside right now where I am, and expected to hit 98 later today. Expecting 101 Sunday.

On the other hand the humidity is only 18%, so it's quite dry and not too bad at all.

Just heat I can handle its when you get high humidity that knocks me back. Way back in the 1990's I recall walking behind this Arab and businessman on a very very hot day and this businessman was saying great weather we were having. The Arab answer this very bad for you too much humidity bad for your health, always seem to recall that day when it hots up.

I can understand that. Back in the mid-'80s I spent my winters driving skiers to the resorts, but in the summer I drove tourists around town in a funny-looking truck dressed up to look like a train, towing open-air trailers. One day a tourist mentioned that the electric sign on a bank we had just passed said the temperature was 108 degrees. He then said he was from Alabama, and that it didn't feel that hot. When I pointed out that the humidity was likely only 15%, he said yeah, where he was from it was usually around 80 degrees and 80% humidity.

That'll kill ya.

Yeah humidity! I love the dry heat of California as opposed to the steam of Minnesota. It will be in the 90's today but cool on the bay....SAILING DAY!

Yup, it's summer alright. So far today I've seen a Dragon-fly, a baby grass snake and found a nest of bees in the back garden.
