Just back from a week's holiday with the outlaws inlaws, average 40degC with 50degC in sun. Very enjoyable, although sweated a bit when very high humidity followed by the mother of all thunderstorms. 24 hours later ground was like a dustbowl again!

I agree with you  :y

However it depends of your definition of winter..  :-\

Mine was September sometime last year and it ended end of May this year  ::) ;D

Ive not had the heating on for just about a month now  ::) ;D

Feeling relatively cold today at 23degC in my office. Got used very quickly to the 40degC of the last week. :) :)

Berlin flooded! Up to 250 l/m2 rain in two days. :o

Here deepdown southwest the weather is more comfortable. Still 25°C, most sunny and a moderate western wind.

Optimal conditions to work on the Omega. I changed the left fog light. Glass, holder and adjustment mechanism were broken. The bumper has to by removed for that. 90 minutes work  :)

You cannot reliably measure heat in the sun only in the shade.

I am a happy bunny today as the air con on our mobile greenhouse is fixed. 145 euros for repaired  connecting pipe ( new flexible section between existing metal ends) and regas. Just in time for Temps to go back up next week.

Outside sender was claiming 30C at midday.  So brought sensor in and stood it by main unit, within 20 mins was within 0.1C of main unit.

Not sure way it was reading 30C earlier - whilst hot, wasn't that hot IMHO...

Omegas MID said 33,5°C late in the afternoon. Official weather station at Lahr airport measured 30,9°C. It was the 12th day >30°C this summer here.

If it gets warm and I park up after a good drive, the sensor on my astra has been known to read 43°C.  ;D
Drops down once I get going, so it's obvious heat from the rad.

Oh STEMO ! I read out the MID after parking in the shadow for 19 hours in my garage yard. Omegas sensor is always in good agreement to the local official weather station DWD (German Weather Digest) 10805, Lahr airport. (+/- 2K, that is the normal local temperature fluctuation)
