Sunday produced a scorcher out of the blue although it had been accurately forecast. It was warm from early morning and just kept getting hotter. By early afternoon it was just over 29°C. We’d planned a BBQ on the allotment with our plot neighbours on the strength of the forecast. What a result!
Our gazebo was hoisted for the first time this year to give us some shade to enjoy our late afternoon BBQ. As I threatened yesterday I sowed some more carrots (Early Nantes). Sowing seeds involved just about the right amount of effort on such a hot day.
As you can see from the temperature chart the temperature was above 28°C all afternoon yesterday only falling back to 16°C overnight. Looks like the forecast for another hot day for Monday will be correct - after that it’s back to more usual temperatures. The high of 29.1°C at 13:15 is the highest I've recorded since October 2009.
