As accurately forecast Tuesday turned out to be the hottest day of the year as the temperature reached 31.9°C (89.4°F) which for us is almost uncharted territory.
It became the third hottest day of the last 10 years.

The forecast was also correct regarding the overnight thunderstorms which arrived in the early hours of Wednesday morning. No great amount of rain accompanied the thunder and lightning but the 10.2mm (0.4in) will be very welcome to the plants at the allotment and in the garden.

The weather chat is that Thursday will be even hotter, again with a chance of thunderstorms following, before the hot weather gives way to more normal July temperatures on Saturday.
