Tuesday 15th
62-75F, 17-24C, windy and rather cloudy. Forecast for heavy rain and
thunder storms overnight, tonight. I walked for half an hour and
photographed and videoed a combine harvester at work. Another day
attacking prickly hedges and being attacked in return.It became very hot in the afternoon with several hours of humid 75F. Which made it quite unpleasant to work in the direct sunshine. Apart from a solitary rumble, just after 6pm, there hasn't been any rain yet as we near 7pm. The thundery stuff has sneaked past just north of us but the radar shows the rain isn't far away now with plenty of lightning embedded in it. No ride today.
Wednesday 16th 62-72F, 17-22C,
light breeze and bright. The promised thunderstorms and cloudbursts must
have gone elsewhere though there were a few rumbles and a heavy shower.
Just a shortish walk to unwind tired muscles from days of attacking the
scenery. It should/could be a good day for a ride with lighter winds
forecast. Becoming very warm in the sunshine. Left it too late to start
on the hedges again. I'll have another go later. My ride amounted to 7
miles, returning heavily laden in continuing warm weather. Saw several
cyclists out training.
