Those predictions of a 24 hour drop of 15C from 35 to 20 are now out of the window. Here, in what was a hot spot of 32.5C yesterday it was 25C at 10.00 am but has now dropped back to 23.6C so much more of a steady cooling to Sunday than first forecast.
Certainly a real drop here. From about 4pm it felt like autumn here. Howling wind, drizzle, thoroughly unpleasant. Had to go and rescue lots of stuff that was blowing round the garden.
AT 7pm yesterday Farnborough was reading 28.1C. At 7pm today it was 12.2C. That's a 15.9C drop in 24 hours.
The highest hourly temp today was 23.4C at 11am. By 3pm it had dropped 5C to 18.4C. Two hours later it was 15.7C!
Fortunately we just managed to get my son's birthday party (outdoor) in before the weather turned. Started at 1pm in warm muggy conditions, and around 2pm the chill started to set in but it was still dry. Finished at 3, and by 4pm it was horrid out.
