Very hot, little bit of haze in the morning but a beautiful blue afternoon for the last day of summer.

Beautiful weather - rather too hot - high cloud appearing at lunchtime but then clearing in the afternoon. Walking about was like swimming in a warm blue sea.

Beautiful weather, clouded over about five but was flawless with a couple of hours before that. A real burst of Summer to counteract my sad fin de siècle feelings yesterday.

Beautiful weather - deep blue sky, soft but strong SW breeze. Went for a walk in the country park for an hour in the afternoon, thinking about the end of Summer. About half the blackberries are ripe.

Beautiful cool clear evening, both earlier when the sun was still shining on the leaves of the chestnut tree, and later when the sky was a profound deep clear blue.

Very heavy thunderstorm from 4.20 to 5.20pm, hail, pelting rain, the works. Lent H. my spare umbrella.

A little like Friday and Monday - cool, bright start, pissing down by eleven, went on till the evening. At lunchtime went out in the rain for a walk.

Definitely the final act of Summer - noticed red berries appearing on the hedges last weekend, a symbolic shower of leaves blew at the car, when I walked round the lake at lunchtime there was a cool breath in the air.. I never used to feel like this at the end of the Summer. I used to like to watch Spring getting started, but never used to see this sad, doomed grandeur in late August.

Weather started out beautiful, but it was raining by eleven and it went on till 5pm.

As suspected by me, since seeing yesterday's high cloud, it rained from 10am ~ 8pm, solidly for 10 hours. Very heavy at times, particularly when I was walking across town between buses, having decided to go and work at home. It took something like an hour door-to-door, but it seemed like longer walking through the downpour and stuck in traffic in a bus full of damp, steaming people. Wish I'd stayed in my nice dry office!

Did yoga then finished off some work while my tea cooked. Interesting being able to do that, might make more use of it.

Same as yesterday but without the cool breeze. High cloud in the evening too.

Some definite signs of the end of summer now: more yellow leaves than there were on Tuesday, the conkers on the tree outside have been getting quite mature this past week, acorns are fully-formed on oak trees. This year we'd barely got going with summer before it started finishing, though I wouldn't be surprised if we got some hot weather next month.

Beautiful hot clear summer's day, with cool breeze. Beautiful calm evening and night after the long summer day, and a lovely low yellow moon waxing full, the last moon of summer.

Thought I saw a few yellow leaves this cool, clear morning. It's been bright the last few days but only in the afternoon today did it get too hot to wear a coat.

Interesting weather with bands of showers. in the afternoon went out, in the bright inter-shower sunshine, for a brisk walk to the Co-op.

Brief sunny period early in the morning while I was shopping, wind and rain later.

Not so bright as Sun and yesterday, but quite cool when the sun was in.

Realised we're as far from the solstice now as we are on May 5th - last week and today I thought I detected an autumnal slant in the afternoon sun, which in previous years I haven't noticed earlier than c. 18th (equiv Apr 25th).

Again bright, with hot sun, but cool N wind. Rather pleasant, a bit like being at the seaside.

Beautiful calm evening, spent some time admiring the various greens and yellows of the chestnut tree outside against the deep blue sky. Children playing nearby, recreating the sound of summer holiday evenings circa 1977.

Weather fresh with strong N wind.

Pouring with rain when I went out at 6.45, but was fine before ten, never mind eleven.

Beautiful afternoon with big white-grey clouds and deep blue sky. Waiting for the bus home, the clouds and sky together with the dark green summer trees and white buildings made me feel like I was on the cover of an SF novel, one of those impossibly pure paintings.
