Cool and Wet

Bank Holiday Monday was a wash out. Not that we had bucketfuls of rain but it was enough to keep the paths wet all day amounting to a total of 4mm. It was a day for staying indoors as the temperature was pretty cool for late August reaching just 16.1°C producing the coolest day of the month.. Since those warm days in the middle of the month the temperature has gradually declined each day. Not much good for ripening tomatoes and bringing on any late vegetables.

The forecast for the week ahead doesn’t seem too promising for any warmer weather.
