Yet another forecast that runs ' it will stay dry across the region especially south of the Thames Valley'.

A warm night to follow with a min of 15C to 16C and this will lead on to a very warm Thursday with plenty of sunshine. The temperature will rise to at least 28C. Very hot on Friday.

I recorded a wind gust of 60 mph early evening on Saturday 10th August 2019 at Rottingdean, just east of Brighton. Huge seas were pounding the walls of the Brighton Marina. This is the illustration on the front cover of Issue 40 of Weather eye magazine.

 Above:  Large cumuliform clouds leading to heavy showers building in the distance over the North Downs as seen from the South Downs at Chanctonbury Hill. Taken around 17.00 hrs on the 15th June. It was sunny most of the day on the South Downs and across the south of Sussex, a typical situation in the summer with the Channel preventing showers forming for quite some way inland.

The first issue of Weather eye in 1998.

A good idea for a present this New Year is a pack of Weather eye magazines. A pack of issues worth £22 for just £6 and £3 post and packing. A great gift and a good  read. Includes the latest issue. Tel-01903 741478.

Listen out for me on Sunday June 28th 2020 on BBC Radio Surrey and Sussex, just after 1045 hrs on the 'Dig It' show. I will look back on June's weather and give a forecast for the whole of July. Check the time as shedules could change due to the current medical emergency. 

Have you tried Weather eye magazine. Give it a go. I will send you the latest issue post free and at a reduced price of £2.50- that's got to be a bargain.
