10:35 BST
Yesterday was, or
seemed, nicer than the gloomy day predicted in the
forecast. My memory is of sunny spells, and maybe even
the odd hour featuring full sunshine (although I will
admit it may have been just some very long sunny
spells). The afternoon seemed well warm enough to have
reached the forecast 23° C. It cooled down in
the evening, and although I was not aware of it,
drizzle and light rain was forecast from 1am this
morning.
![]() The forecast for light
rain in the early hours was probably right because
it was definitely pouring with rain when I woke up
this morning. The heavy rain could last until 2pm,
and then the clouds will start to clear. From 4pm we
may get a glimpse of the sun through the last of the
rain clouds. From 5pm we may see sunny spells, and
at 7pm, just before the sun set we could see full
sunshine peeping over the visible horizon. The best
we may see this afternoon is just 17° C, and clear
skies after sunset may see the temperature plummet
to as low as 12° C by 5am tomorrow. At sunrise
tomorrow we may have full sunshine for a few hours.
The rest of the day may feature occasional sunny
spells, but a few hours will be dull. Tomorrow could
see a high of just 19° C, or 2 degrees higher than
today.
Yesterday was quite good - as the calm before the storm should be (the storm being my colonoscopy and gastroscopy tomorrow). I went for a walk, among a few other things, and all is described, and illustrated with a few pictures, plus some added notes about this morning, in my complete archived page about yesterday. |

Yesterday started
out with sunny spells, and by midday they changed to
full sunshine. The afternoon reached 25° C, and that
felt good.Last night was not clear, like the night
before, and although a bit fresh, it was not too
chilly this morning.
![]() The forecast says it
should be dull now, but we seem to have had long
sunny spells, although just as I wrote that
the sun was blocked by mostly thin cloud. Most of
the day will probably be dull, but the afternoon
should still reach 23° C. Today should remain dry,
but the early hours of tomorrow morning may see
light rain or drizzle. It could continue through to
4pm, but after that there may be a few sunny spells,
and just before sunset there could be full sunshine.
Tomorrow may only see a high of just 19° C.
Much of yesterday could be described as quiet. I did have a shower because I was thinking of going out for a walk (but didn't) and I was also expecting Jodie for a beer tastings session which also didn't happen. I have more fully described yesterday, and included notes about this morning, in my complete archived page covering yesterday. |

Yesterday started
out bright and sunny, but by the end of the morning it
was reduced to just sunny spells, The afternoon still
reached 21° C, and that felt good. The sky cleared
after sunset, and we had another chilly night.
![]() This morning started off
with sunny spells, but they will turn to full
sunshine about now (11am). The afternoon should
reach 25° C thanks to full sunshine. It should feel
like summer again. Even tonight should be a bit
milder than last night. Unfortunately it seems it
might just be a one day wonder. Tomorrow should see
23° C, but there will be no sunshine, not even sunny
spells, after about 8am. It should still be dry, but
there may be rain in the early hours of tomorrow
night (Tuesday).
Yesterday featured two bothersome things, and they combined to make the first day of my 4 day low fibre diet to be not as low fibre as it could have been. On the other hand, it was more like a weight loss diet - which was good. My day is as fully described as I can remember, and includes some notes about this morning. It can all be read in my complete archived page about yesterday. |

Yesterday was
generally dull, and there was a sprinkle of rain in
the morning. The dull afternoon reached just 20° C,
but that didn't feel so bad. The temperature started
to drop from 6pm last night, and it got chilly in the
night.
![]() It was just 14° C at 8am
this morning, but three hours later it is around 17°
C thanks to a bright sunny morning. We are now
losing the full sunshine, but sunny spells should
continue until sunset. The afternoon should reach
21° C, and with the sunny spells that may feel quite
nice. A clear night is forecast, and so the night
will be chilly again. Sunny spells and some full
sunshine should warm tomorrow up, and a high of 25°
C is forecast - a brief return to summer !
Yesterday was one of those days were so little of any importance happened that I find it hard to remember much about it. I'll try and remember a few things and write about whatever I can remember. Sometimes writing about it brings back more memories. All I managed to remember is described, as well as some notes about this morning, in my complete archived page about yesterday. |

Yesterday saw very
little sunshine, but the afternoon still reached 24°
C. Drizzle was forecast for 6pm, and it did look like
it might, but I don't think any fell. One feature
yesterday was it did feel a bit humid in the
afternoon, and so warmer than it actually was.
![]() This morning has seen a
bit of light rain, but it is dry again outside, and
there is some hazy sunshine as I type this (at
almost 11am). The forecast says this afternoon will
be dull, but it will still reach 20° C. The clouds
may finally dissipate around 8pm, and clear skies
will mean a cold night. The temperature will have
fallen to 15° C by midnight, By 6am tomorrow is
could be just 13° C. Tomorrow will be very bright
with most daylight hours featuring full sunshine.
The afternoon may reach 22° C.
Yesterday was generally OK, but like this morning, I got off to slow start, and didn't manage all I wanted to do yesterday. On the other hand I did do a few things that were very productive. My day is more fully described, along with the usual notes about this morning, in my complete archived page about yesterday. |

Yesterday was generally
dull, and I think there was a light sprinkle of rain
around midday, but otherwise it seemed to feel OK. The
afternoon only hit 20° C, or not too hot and not
feeling cold - it just felt OK, or about right.
![]() This morning feels mild
enough, but the sky is grey. The afternoon may still
reach 24° C, and it may feel a bit humid. Drizzle is
forecast for 6pm, but with only a 37% of it
happening, it will probably stay dry. Sunny spells
are forecast for just 5pm and 7pm. Tomorrow may
start off very grey, and there could be showers
between 9am and 11am. The rest of tomorrow could be
a lighter grey than today, and the afternoon may
still reach 21° C.
Yesterday, like the day before, was good in places. I described my visit to the nurse yesterday when finishing yesterday's writing after I came back from the surgery. It was probably the morning that was the best of the day. All I wrote today about yesterday, and some notes about this morning, can be read in my complete archived pages for yesterday. |

Yesterday started off bright with some full sunshine and sunny spells, but by the afternoon it had got cloudy enough to make it seem dull outside. The afternoon temperature still reached 21° C again. ![]() It it fairly cloudy as I
write this, and yet it still seems bright, but with
no direct sunshine. There is a 47% chance of rain at
midday, and it could rain. The whole day will be
cloudy, and the afternoon may see a few hours of
much thicker cloud, although no rain is forecast
from those thicker, and darker clouds. The afternoon
should still see 20° C, and that should feel OK. No
need for long trousers yet ! Light cloud is forecast
for tomorrow, but some sunny spells are shown. The
worst chance of rain is shown at just 16%, and so it
will most probably be a dry day. It will actually be
a warmer day with 24° C by mid afternoon.
Yesterday was good in places, and I don't think there were any actual bad bits. Apart from my walk to the pharmacy, and then Poundland, which I described yesterday, it was not a very productive day. Yesterday is described more fully, and with some notes about this morning, it can all be read in my complete archived page about yesterday. |

It seemed like it might rain at the forecast time yesterday, 4 and 5pm, but I don't think it did rain then, or indeed at any other time. On the other hand, my garden did look like it might have been wet a few times even if I couldn't see the rain that might have caused it. After a bright start, much of the day was dull, but an afternoon temperature of 21° C seemed pleasant enough. ![]() It has been nice and sunny
this morning, but later in the afternoon the last
bit of sunshine may finally be hidden by clouds.
Today should reach 21° C again, but not until 2pm
(which an hour earlier than the screen shot above,
taken early this morning, says). There may be a
couple of sunny spells late this afternoon/early
evening, but apart from that it will be cloudy. That
cloud may help the temperature stay a degree or two
higher overnight. Tomorrow will be a dull day, but
there is very little chance of rain. Tomorrow
afternoon may only reach 20° C.
Yesterday was a good and bad day. The good involved beer, but that was also bad. A water leak was either a disaster if I haven't correctly diagnosed the cause, and cured it. More of yesterday, plus some notes about this morning can be read in my complete archived page about yesterday. |
