Get ready for it, unless it has worn itself out by the time it gets down South. It hasn't made it much cooler though! Sticky hot night ahead I think Joanne

I'm sure it will hit the Midlands but it might not be as powerful when it gets there, if the sky goes dark and the wind picks up you'll be in for a treat Joanne

Hi Paul. Have to admit I didn't see the town today. A friend told me the air down there was full of irritating littl;e flies and as I'm starting some building work on the house tomorrow I spent the time getting ready. Weather wasn't really too bad as there was some wind. :-) Keith

Would imagine that Leeds got it as well, if not they were lucky as both Manchester and Sheffield got hit Joanne
