Title: Relief coming our way in the SE?
Post by: Nickbat on 02 July 2009, 22:58:29

I've had quite enough of this sticky weather which is why I'm hoping the storms that are currently crossing the Channel will bring some fresher air in their wake. :y

Wouldn't mind, I must say.  :y

Looks like the worst of it is headed Kevin's way. I can see the flashes in the sky here, though, despite it being clear overhead.
