We had some lovely cloud formations here yesterday, mainly in cirrus clouds, including some virgae which were windblown horizontally for miles. They're actually snow showers of tiny ice crystals which sublime as they fall into drier air below. We also had a stunning whole-sky sunset of scattered altocumulus clouds with a very strange rainbow in the east exactly at sunset. No rain or anything. I've got a photo and I need to look up what was going on there.

Hi Sen

Here in leafy Cheshire we have been "advised" that the North West area will be prohibited from using the hose pipe from 5th August. I have two lawns that are rapidly burning up along with the plants and flowers.

We have been using up water that we have been washing up with etc but according to my garden water gauge we have had hardly any rainfall since 12th May. Luckily We have not done any pots or hanging baskets because we were away in Wales up until the middle of may.

My No 1 son has rigged up a siphon that my good lady can use to empty the bath water into an outside water butt. I prefer to shower and the siphon doesn't work on this.

This is the worse I can remember and has certainly gone on longer than I remember.

I do remember in 1976 we went up to South West Scotland and when we got there the rivers were dry and there were standpipes in the street.

But as we arrived it started to rain. All I had to do was to get my wife to sing....lol

Cheers

Mike

Have you had a hosepipe ban yet Steve? I reckon it won't be long before we all have.

We just use a small plastic bucket to put some water in our modest three tubs of flowers, and to refill the birdbaths and water trays for the wildlife. (We normally have a plethora of tubs and hanging baskets etc but for some reason didn't bother last Spring!)

There have been some very weird cloud formations over our Wensum Valley location. I was praying they would result in thunderstorms and deluges of rain.
No chance...
And they're saying it will reach 33 degrees Celsius next week and still not a hope of any rain. Oh Lord!

First drop for three weeks, 7mm overnight, but that's all dried up already. Very warm and muggy today with strong sun and the forecast for next week is for extreme heat and humidity, and not much rain. At this rate the summer will outdo 1976, which was "nonesuch."

My neighbour came back yesterday from shopping in Dereham (very near to our village) and said it had actually RAINED a bit. Everyone had run outside from the supermarket and danced about in the wet, but the light shower had only lasted a few minutes.
I was very jealous - I'd give anything to dance about under a shower of rain. It hadn't rained one drop where we live :(

For all of July here on the north Cornwall coast we've had sunny days, mild nights and temperatures of between 22 and 26 Celsius. It's been much hotter inland, but our weather has been tempered every day by a lovely, gentle seabreeze off the Atlantic. We also had amazing weather in much of June, up to 30 Celsius once or twice. May wasn't half bad either. We've had more barbecues this last few weeks than in the last three summers put together! I'm all brown!

It was 32 degrees Celsius here today in Norfolk UK. It's been like this for many weeks. Not a drop of rain for literally months.

The countryside is slowly dying and turning to dust. They showed a farmer on TV who was harvesting grain with a combine, and he had some of last year's grain to compare. The grain he was getting was like tiny grains of sand, but last year's was plump. The yields are way, way down. Pasture is sere and non-viable for the stock.

I fear for the wildlife. The earth is like concrete and the birds can't get any grubs or worms. There is no water.

There's also the risk of wildfires in the fields, with dry straw lying waiting for the binders to gather it up.

Stupid brainless idiots have been letting off fireworks for various celebrations at the local pub. If fires broke out, we're all on oil-fired energy, and everyone has a tank with 1000 litres of kerosene. Bombs waiting to go off!
We've been putting out water for the birds and as much food as we can spare.
It all reminds me of when I was in Senegal in sub-Saharan Africa. Dry as dust and boiling hot.
It's really worrying and depressing. Please let it RAIN!!!

From an indoor spot with refrigerated air-conditioning,
looking out through a picture window (library),
the weather is pretty as a picture.
The clear blue sky and puffy white clouds
convey nothing to suggest the humidity / dew-points
contributing to the heat index figures.

Tomorrow we are supposed to have drenching rainstorms,
tomorrow night it begins to cool down,
and by Saturday night
it will be cool and dry for sleeping again.

So far this year we have had barely one quarter of our average annual rainfall to date, there is a bad drought. Occasionally we get a few teasing drops of rain.

Yes, heat is on its way or already here in much of the US. Here the anticipated heat wave didn't start today--the temp rose to a mere 89 degrees F. The forecast is for a possible 9 consecutive days of temps in the 90s or higher with humidity and little overnight cooling. I know many people live in places where those conditions or worse are the norm, but I don't! I hope the forecasters got it wrong.

Currently, a new weather system is bringing to southern New England
not only heat, but greater HUMIDITY
and there go the pleasant conditions for sleeping.
The Fourth of July, which I think is a week from today,
will probably be the proverbial "hotter than" --

We were told to expect brief t'storms yesterday but all we got was mild weather with morning fog today, clearing by 8 AM running up to the mid 80's f with mild humidity this afternoon in Central NJ. Loving it! With any luck, we'll do as well next weekend. Saturday we plan to put up a new radio mast and antenna at the local Red Cross and Sunday is the NYC Triathlon.

Air pollution worse than usual:

Phoenix is so terribly FLAT FLAT FLAT
