Hot and dry in Lincoln but lovely for long days sitting in the garden and picking fruit on the allotment

Sheffield ... its abating somewhat now to normal rain - has been bouncing very energetically - I just came back from the lottie (couldn't see anything it went so dark) and got out of the car - ran perhaps 20 yards (some of that covered) and my top, trousers & boots were abolutely drenched through ... sat here steaming now with very happy smile.

Plenty of rain here in Cheshire too! Its been really hot and sunny all day, but at about 5.30 the heavens opened. Flash floods on the road.......but the courgettes are loving it!

Can you spare some for Cumbria? B****r the garden, I want to go sea trout & salmon fishing, & there was no water last year until the season ended!

Had loads of rain here as well along with thunderstorms!!  Not at all happy,  I have been looking forward to gardening today cos we have had enough rain and wind etc. our soil is wet enough (Scottish Borders)   The temperature dropped from 26C at midday to 16C at 4 p.m.   It had better warm up or I am definately going to emigrate.    Moan over..... ::) ::)

It has been 32 degrees in the shade here in Oxfordshire.  The garden and lottie desperately need some rain  :(

[Gardengirl]

Same here in Herts - I think I will expire soon if it doesn't get any cooler ::)  Please send some of that lovely rain our way :)

[deboydoyd]

Thunder, lightning and RAIN in Huddersfield--Yipee

[Merlins Mum]

I think I will expire soon if it doesn't get any cooler ::) 

I'm glad I'm not the only one, I feel like I'm melting but I'm not getting any thinner ::)

Still hot and sultry in Lincs - finally got my runners in - really struggled with those this year.  Watered the ground but could still do with a few buckets of water on them from above until they get settled.  Everything else seems to be thriving btw and has not seen a watering can - except the potatoes that only get sprinkeld with compost tea.

Not a drop (or sign of one) in Cambridgeshire!  I love a good thunder storm...  :D

[Robert_Brenchley]

We're getting the odd roll of thunder, but hardly a drop of rain. I wish it would get on with it.

We have a heatwave forecast in this part of the country.  Was 32 yesterday, today, same for tomorrow, Tuesday & Wednesday.  I love the hot weather but tis a wee bit much in the evening when trying to cool down.  Thursday we are supposed to be down to a lovely 24 :)  Unlike you poor lottie peeps, I am NOT praying for rain, I love the sun!  ;D

Your profile tells me you are in China, are you really?

[Mrs Ava]

Well in this part of Essex, according to those nice peeps at metcheck.com, we are forecast rain Tuesday afternoon and again Thursday afternoon.  Lovely stuff!  I shall be keeping it all crossed as two lovely wet days would bring everything on famously!

[Hot_Potato]

Well here in Berkshire, we're absolutely parched with temps. getting well into the early 30'sC......much too hot for me I'm afraid ::)

Now I don't want a noisy or scary thunderstorm but would welcome a good old steady downpour (all night preferably ;))

Can't go near the lottie in this heat - I suffer from heatstroke as soon as it gets very warm - have to nip up there on the odd evening, once the sun's gone over a bit to do bits of watering.

H.P.
