 Rain Again Our bee hives will be filled with workers who cannot get to work again today, the rain hasn't stopped for hours, and we've had so much it isn't doing the plants or herbs any good.

A THIRD heat wave

Can the UK survive a third heat wave this Summer? Believe it or not, the UK should be having a third heat wave in as many weeks. After the promises of a heat wave in July , brought by a  Spanish Plume  but is it any surprise that nobody believes the  TV weather forecast , each time we have a nice day they say it's a heatwave. It's hard to imagine a small drop in temperature could make such a large difference. Two days ago, the temperature was 25 degrees, and I had trouble breathing. Today, it's 23, and we're talking about putting the heating on, in July?

Heatwave The UK is supposed to be getting hit by a Spanish Plume  this week, this is a hot wind coming across from North Africa , and Spain bringing a heatwave . If we got our jobs wrong as often as the Meteorologists get the weather wrong, we'd be sacked for incompetence. The joke is each time it doesn't rain for a day there is talk of a heatwave. People have no idea what a heatwave is like, when I was working the heat was so bad it melted tar on the roads, and we had to ask people to bang their shoes to rid the soles of gravel, before entering the museums.
