The forecast suggested wall to wall sunshine for ten hours. Reality revealed around two returning 2.7 O's but as QB stated at least it kept temperatures down.From a selfish personal view I'd rather have had the former along with higher temps so just turning the wick up a bit on HP's to offset them.
