Algarve, Summer finally here? - Midlands Weather Forum

Well, seems like the first propper summers day today. A temperature of 34 ºC is what I remember of July. Till now the Azores High did not only make the English weather a nightmare, but caused us a very un-typical start of the summer season. Too much wind, and quite cold.

But than today it changed, not perfect yet, but pleasant. Now, I'm sitting on the terrace, a (rather lively) breeze has brought the temp down to a pleasant 26ªC. A chilled bottle of green sparkling (Portugese) vinho verde, and suddenly life is worth it again.

I just wanted to share this with you all, it's days like today that make it all worth it.

Regards

it must be nice up there, we have had rain, thunderstorms, even a small amount of snow in the mountains up around Scotland, sometimes i think about global warming and it could be a little more 'persistent'.

lol TG!

Seems nice in Portugal! Hopefully the low pressure will move away soon enough and we will probably have a suddent heatwave with temperatures reaching above 40c or something like that! I really wouldnt be surprised!

Gosh, I wish i could send you guys some of this weather. today another hot one (the hottest so far this year) and more to come. But what is annoying is that it's windy, so not all is perfect in paradise

Hope you all get some improvement, here it just stays nice till end of September - I hope.

Will keep you informed

Not realy that strong, about force 4 or 5, but annoying enough to not be able to enjoy the beach.

Can't complain too much, temp is down to about 26-28 C and the wind turned S-SW, so pleasant and cooler.

See England has a reasonable week-end ahead, shame it wont last.

Have a good week-end too all
