It's another early start for me tomorrow so I will post now, and try to do an update by midday tomorrow.

Today was as forecast except the temperature which never got above 21c, but it was a pleasant enough day out of the wind. And The Calima has eased slightly.

Tomorrow's forecast, The temperature to reach 23c with an Easterly wind circa 17/19. with no rain forecast.

A couple of websites are predicting temperatures I the mis 20,s for the weekend, we can only hope.

My apologies, I have only just read this post, as I normally just cut and paste it, I assume the temperature of 37C referred to was a typo {27c?} unless WG was in a very different part of The Island to me 😀 😀
