10:30am and Southend is up to 31°c
If Sarthend gets the record I am crying! But makes sense, it is one of the sunniest places in the UK. You get a different climate to London.

Biggin Hill, Jersey Airport and London Southend Airport all already reporting 28C
Funny enough, as a pilot, all those three have there own bloody weather systems. So ironic they are topping 28C already.

Certainly not a dry heat here with dew points at 14C. Could be worse but a far cry from desert heat.
Heathrow currently sitting at 28% humidity. London City at 34% - definitely a lot drier heat than the usual plumes.

This heat is not bad, humidity is very low now in London. Reminds me of Las Vegas or Abu Dhabi outside of the peak heat.

Yeah big patch of airspace where they'll route stuff over top of LON (VOR) and or BIG then direct them to somewhere in Europe and the other way too.
Busy at 4am UK for 5-6am arrivals into Europe.

UL9 Airway and any route directs between EISN and EBBR airspace.

That'll be overflights from US etc, jet's cant get to that level till they are in European airspace or at least 100nm + from Gatwick.

Humidity at 47% at the moment, as the days go by I think the heat is more bearable than it was last week. It was way too humid, dry heat is better to cope with imho.

This might have been a problem, as it appears it took a week to re-start

Tropopause will be roughly 45000ft on Tuesday too. Usually at 30000 odd ft in the Summer.
Probably looking at the odd isolated African Style TSRA in excess of FL450.

38.8C, 18th, London/Kew Gardens
(Is there really nowhere in Kent that has an official record-verifying station at all now? I know Gravesend had the microclimate issue but...)
Lydd Airport is somewhat official? Also Southend Airport albeit over the water.

40.1°C - Kew Gardens on Monday 18th at 3pm.

A further two cells in London this afternoon/early evening. I've had 5 thunderstorms today, arguably the best I've experienced in a few hours probably since the late 90s, early 2000s.
This setup in June/July would be horrific.

Wish we got these in the UK

Looking good, doubt it'll cross the mountains though.
Anvils everywhere behind it.

In Marmaris and I'm being treated to this growing system. Was small earlier, just growing and growing but doubt will cross the mountains.

Yes, but compared to the 00s, I don't think our Summers are as wet as them. 2012 was a wet one all over.
When I was a kid in the 90s, I remember going down East Street Market with my grandparents, getting drenched, going for Pie & Mash and getting drenched lol.

I hope I'm wrong about that though.

Nice to see this early in the season though. Hopefully, we see more in the way of low pressure anchored out to the west, pumping warm and humid air up from the south, as we head towards summer.
We are overdue a wet Summer, hopefully this is it. Wet summer = +TSRA
