South Ockendon, SW Essex 18 September 18:06

It has been a very strange day for weather, first thing this morning there was partly cloudy skies with sunshine and by late morning it clouded over as was very cold and windy. The by tea time, it was sunny and for just over a half an hour there were completely clear skies and then clouds started to build but up and then clear up again. I had two jumpers and acket on and I have had to take off the jacket and the jumper because it suddenly became a lot warmer than it was this morning. The temperature is 18°C and the wind direction is from the east and the speeds are 14mph.

Was fairly sunny earlier... Then a kind of late sunday afternoon mulpyness set in, which was compounded by the American military frlying their plaines very fast and loud over the center of town to piss everyone off... now its just vaguely mulpy in a kind of chicken pie saltryness of a typical sunday early evening... Expect it will be sunny again tommorrow... Quite a nice September thus far, cept for the mulpyness, at least the heating hasn't gone on yet and hopefully won't have too for a while yet...

Did you see the news stories on the huge red dust clouds hitting Sydney?
It hit us yesterday and it was horrible in the extreme
I noticed pictures in The Guardian and The Times about it.

Well it's just warm here and very very very dry, we're standing in nappy buckets when we have showers so that we can reuse the water on the lawns in a poor attempt to keep them alive(not green, just alive).

A 10 year drought for the country and the farmers continues and we all wonder about climate change. If it's not changing then explain that to me...why not?

Oh...the temps are 30 odd and the nights are cool....

Grief. Sometimes it's hard to believe we're on the same planet

We just moved into autumn (northern hemisphere) and today it's like winter, and dull and overcast temp says 15degC but I don't believe it

I did, impressive. I thought of Feisor and Kea, next time -I hope for better reasons- I´ll think of you.
