My weather stats so far this Summer, paint a skewed picture of it. Going by general memory, I would consider it a very good Summer so far. Temps are sunshine hours are definitely above average. However, it has been much windier than last year, same with rainfall - surpassing last year by a long way, and quite a bit above average.

I would  agree with you . It hasn't been at all bad . I feel for those on school hols now , but to be honest don't we have a fair bit of rain in August anyway? 

My tomatoes have ripened already, sweetpeas blooming .

June and July's rainfall totals would suggest wet months, but as you can see from my charts, it's come in a few high daily totals. There's plenty of dry days..

Not really much going on here, had a moderate/heavy shower a few hours ago, but no thunder, despite the thunder icon showing for 4 hours on the MetO forecast.

Thanks @Zephyr They're taken on my phone - LG G6. It has a dual camera, one is a standard lens, the other a wide-angled lens - which I like using more. I use the manual controls instead of auto modes, and sometimes I set it to take a RAW image, so no processing is done by the phone, then I can edit it using Snapseed.

A nice day, sunny and warm.

Temp: 21.8°C - Hum: 65% - Dew: 15°C - Bar: 1015.51hPa - Wind: NW ~ NNW @ 6mph.

Today has been bookended by very gloomy conditions, this morning due to residual frontal cloud and this evening due to showers * .

In between summer made a very warm return with the max being 24.3c .

* anyone have any idea why a shower streamer has formed from roughly Thornbury - Bath - Frome?

Clear blue sky up until 1.30, dark clouds forming , but very warm and humid still( unless it's another chest infection ! ) .

very still , very quiet even the birds have stopped singing . Want to head to the coast this evening before the  rain starts . Might have to have a rethink looking at the sky. .
