    To be fair, I'd say that's a British summers day. I'm about 400 miles north of you and the weather's exactly the same here!

    In North Carolina for the second week now we've had temperatures ranging from 95F to 103F, and the only rain has been part of severe thunderstorms. I would gladly trade you summers if we could keep our gentle winter. lol

    Perhaps the best part of "The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen" is when Allan Quartermain is told to dress for "an English summer", and it is pouring cats and dogs when he arrives.

    Dear Vladd
    That would put you in Inverness, or Aberdeen?

      Dear Vladd
      Haven't been that far north in years. Did a couple of summers collecting nematodes on Loch Ness.
      I drove once on a friday from Aberdeen to London in one trip stopping only to refuel (me and the car) and eat on the weay. Hit London on the friday night rush hour. Reached the car park at the BM to drop off the car and reversed into the car park pillar. Could have wept.

    Dear Brummie
    Usual British stratified weather. That pic was taken in Hertforshire, not a million miles from you.

    Dear Chris
    We generally have mild winters in southern England. This year the temp seems to have hardly alterred fron winter to summer. But yep, your summers are fierce.
