Temperatures on the rise, no end in sight...
As high pressure builds through the British isles temperatures look set to be rising once again.
Take a look at the charts. The high pressure meanders around the British Isles, but never really clears way. I think that farmers and growers are going to be doing rain dances soon, as we are in for at least a week with dry weather throughout. There could be minor exceptions in that an odd thunderstorms could break out, but for most, it's dry and warm all the way.
If you're a hay fever sufferer (like me) you'll already know that the pollen count is on the rise. It's a sniffly, snuffly, itchy few days ahead with an escape to the coast likely to be our only relief.
Whatever the weather, keep the sun shining.
