27C light breeze NNW and it is only mid-day. Too hot for me outside. Very dry and burn down to a trickle, we get our water from the burn:( The good thing about living in an old stone house it that it always stays cool no matter what the weather - bit like living in a fridge.

Dry and hot here in N. London, too... the grass hasn't needed cutting in weeks. I know the farmers are starting to get desperate for rain now- as are the firefighters up on Saddleworth Moor.

16C Ligt breeze ESE. Glad it is a bit cooler today. Everything bone dry. Been leaving a hose pipe on to keep a muddy patch for the House Martins, who are busy repairing old nest and a pair making a new one. i do like they way their nests are together. Love listening to them chattering away when at the nests.

15C wind WSW, light breeze, sunny. Would just like some rain, having to be careful with water as burn running extremely low.Have bottled up some water just in case. Forecast is for rain tonight - fingers crossed, though it would have to be heavy. The Scottish Government and Water people have arranged that they will get water to people living remotely and not on mains, so hopefully will be ok.

This morning, 17C, cloudy, humid and a light easterly breeze but this follows a slightly weird, sleepless night for many locals. Initially humid but no rain, no wind and no lightning but during the evening the power supply to the village failed but came back on intermittently resulting in appliances in homes switching on and off seemingly on their own. Then torrential rain arrived turning the road behind our house into a river. Pleased to say all is now calm and quiet. dawn 28July18 by Alf Parker, on Flickr Alf

East London For a short time yesterday evening it rained a lot and we had a good thunderstorm. Today, I am very relieved to say, it is breezy and fresh feeling, sunny and about 23C. Here are a couple of shots from Wanstead Flats today. The rain yesterday has reduced the chances, a little, of grass fires, but we could do with a lot more. Dave

I do wonder about the weather forecast for here at times light wind and showers. It is 17C almost gale force blasts of wind and torrential rain. Our burn has filled up nicely and the pond is overflowing. Yesterday by 3:30 the clouds had cleared, it had stopped lightly raining and the sun came out - wonderful maybe we would get to see the red moon. Nop! By 5:30 the clouds roared in and it began to rain heavily.
