I searched for a picture showing hawthorn on Tower Green but couldnt find anything.<br /><br />There was a programme by Dr David Starkey recently called Mind of a Tyrant. I think it's still available on 4OD if you can get that. Well worth watching if you like anything Henry VIII :)Joanna Cakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15944673677004607976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6493386230053818260.post-64978528782506950512009-05-16T18:16:00.000+01:002009-05-16T18:16:00.000+01:00Cake,

There's a precise metric for it. <br /><br />The first 24 hour period where the daytime high is 89-F and the nighttime low 72-F.<br /><br />The 89-F can occur in January, but BOTH need to occur to trigger the big changes in wind-patterns and precipitation.hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04341805107057968097noreply@blogger.com
