New Record? Post here.

8 year old iPad might be the problem with this javascript driven website.
Not sure by highly probable.

Thanks Hans. I suspected that might be the issue. I’m running v12.5.5.

Andy, my ageing iPad is probably the cause.

It is still dry in the Channel Islands, so far we are up to 40 consecutive days with no rain. This is on top of 28 days of no rain in April / May and with a low rainfall year.

So far the total rain this year is 229.6 mm which is about 200 mm short of the year to date norm.

Everywhere is looking stressed, trees are shedding leaves and the fields are like dust. However, the local desalination plant is working which gives us about 50% of the daily island water consumption so whilst the reservoirs are falling they are not empty.

It looks like we still have at least another week of no rain, the tourists will love it.

Andy, yesterday’s forecast for the weekend and into next week suggest low pressure over France will mean thundery showers developing and drifting north towards England and Wales.

You have a reasonable chance of rain by Monday onwards.

New max temp record for me; 32.9°C.

A different type of new record was set yesterday. Five consecutive days where the max exceeded 30°C. The August max of 32.3°C set back in 2020 was equalled yesterday.

The heatwave is now over here in Cheshire. Current temp is 23°C - far more comfortable.

My all time record covering the longest consecutive dry days was broken today after 45 days. Long may the rain continue
