A question of scale



We're whizzing off for a holiday on the south coast this weekend. Packing begins tomorrow, but according to the BBC weather forecast, we could see the maximum daily temperature fall by ten degrees over a couple of days as all this sunshine clears off. Packing the right clothes could be a headache.

Ten degrees is a large drop in temperature over a couple of days, but we'll just have to adjust. Certainly a bigger temperature change than even the most dramatic climate forecasts for this century...

oh hang on...

  1. When we lived in Lymington, on the edge of the New Forest and on the Solent, friends from the Lake District came down to visit us one summer. The husband looked at the people in the street and said "I'd forgotten that in the South everyone needs a summer wardrobe".

  2. dearieme - needing both is a pain. An aunt and uncle of mine used to avoid it when retired by spending each winter in Portugal.
