Very hot.

To Tescos; got with my shopping an eclipse viewer just in case it's sunny that day.

Very interesting conversation with Craig re thunderstorms. I recalled that fantastic one in 1994 that I was forewarned of by it disrupting Wimbledon before it arrived, and that went right over the house; he recalled a similarly impressive occasion in 1996 when he was taking landscape photos and one turned up with fork lightning and all.

I said I loved the proper fork lightning. 'None of your sheet rubbish' he confirmed.

July 1999

24th. Extremely hot. Looked SW across the fields to the river, a real summer afternoon.

25th. Beautiful day, very hot again.

31st. Extremely hot. Far too hot to go out in the afternoon.

'A very warm spell at the end of the month' [...]

Beautiful weather, not too hot, soft and clear with no haze.

Thirtieth anniversary of the moon landing (I thought it was tomorrow). Dirty weather, hot, humid and windy.

Very hot and humid, quite unpleasant.

Weather flawless and very hot.

Came out of the shop to an 'intensely rich scent of damp' and it started pouring with rain.

Very hot day.

Another beautiful day, extremely hot. Went out at 4pm when it'd cooled off a bit.

Cool bath in the evening, as it's been a very hot day.

Beautiful cloudless day.

Hot again.

Very hot, noticed altocumulus castellanus in the morning, it duly thundered in the evening.

Beautiful weather. Must get out on my bike tomorrow if the weather holds.

Rained at first but sun later.
