Well Sunday heralded a Change in the Weather….

Beech Wood, Derbyshire

Sunday brought the change in weather that had been forecast for earlier in the week. No rain of any consequence and certainly not enough to dampen the woodland floor.  But it was dull with just an occasional flash of brightness that pretended to be the sun.

So the woods were darker under the leaf canopy but the biggest change seemed to be the temperature…. by comparison with the warm spring and summer the days  the contrast seem much greater that the reality as it still registered 17c.

All in all it was a mini shock to the system and reminded us on just how well the weather gods have looked after us….even though it cannot last for ever!

  1. Nothing lasts for ever…but the climate change is said to make for example rain or heat stay longer than usual. Fewer changes if “something” decides to park right over us. And here that happened in May.

  2. I think lack of rain is going to be the issue this Summer. We have had very little here since April. The weather forecaster on the BBC yesterday said, so far this month, the south of the UK has had less than 10 percent of the usual rainfall for June. The long range forecast is more of the same.
