It topped out at 29.8° here with a dew point around 9° and hardly a

we'll be in Reykjavik where the max was 9° today. Much more pleasant

What a scorcher Norman! Low DPs though.

9C; brrrr!

I've worked with may people from Iceland though I've never been there.

A young Icelandic research scientist once moaned to me about the weather
(looking outside through the window across the fine Brum Uni landscape)
on a sunny January afternoon. I asked why when it was such a lovely day.
She said the British winters were full of 'pretence'. I again questioned
this... 'Pretence?' I asked. Yes, it is not dark!
