Thursday was another cold wet day. The warmest it managed was just 13.6°C and by midnight on Thursday it had fallen to just 5.9°C. That combination produced the coldest average August temperature of the last 3 summers of 11.3°C. The temperature eventually fell to 5.1°C early on Friday morning which surprisingly isn’t quite the coldest August temperature I’ve recorded which is still held by 31 August 2010 when it got down to 4.6°C giving one of the coldest August temperatures recorded.
The good news is that Friday is forecast to be a much better day with plenty of sunshine but not particularly warm so a visit to the plot might be in order.
Our Michaelmas Daisies are putting on a really good show in the front garden and so far are standing up to the weather very well.
