This afternoon we finally got a little bit of rain, which cooled the air somewhat, down to 24 °C or so. However, the relief was temporary, hot weather will continue for quite a while still. Yet it was nice to see some water on the ground and on plants. We have seen more dead animals in our garden than is usual, the heat and lack of water must be the reason for this.

Well, we're supposed to get some cooling Saturday night. At the moment it has 32 degrees Celsius here in my apartment. In the morning I awoke sweating in 29.5. Oh dear!

Well, that is really something!

I remember a vacation in Greece when it was 38 °C in daytime and not much cooler during the night either. And no air conditioning in our hotel.
