Thats why im so glad im living on the coast its been a great few days here apart from sunday morning temps around 22/23c perfect summer weather the sea breeze makes all the diff im glad i moved from midlands esp when theres hot weatherLoving the long sunny days-ideal for my golf and gardening activities.Just wish it maxed out at around 21-23C rather than near 30C that many of us are seeing.Maybe it's my advancing years but i find afternoons and early evenings quite wearing and am then looking for some shade and rest so i try and get my hobbies done by lunchtime at the latest.This is one time when those sea breezes in coastal locations can be so welcome whereas here in the centre of England the stillness allows the heat to hang around and night times are quite stifling now.A great July for heat lovers though particularly if near a beach or pool and a cool drink or 2 within reach.

yes it does maybe one day we will get some high temps like that without the dreaded north easterly/low cloud types sick of hearing them words this summerThis is the chart that brought 32C on 29th July 1983. It does seem a very high temperature for somewhere on the coast.

cheers mate enjoy your sun and warmth spent good few hours even had a paddle and the sea isnt as cold as i thought u soon get used to it cracking day i was looking at some temp records for here August 1990 and july 1983 got up to 32c would love that again B)I love Skegness. Nice to hear its getting some warmth just like we are just up the coast
-
This i def the warmest its been during this spell for us in the east coast its roasting sitting on the beach eating ice cream skegs the place to be right now B)
-
Finally we have winds coming from westerly type already feels warm outside
-
Well the sun is starting to punch holes in the clouds it feels quite warm n muggy now we dont have breeze coming off the see cmon sun you can do it!!!
-
i think if you lived on the coast you would be the same yeah there good sypnotics but a continuous north east breeze and low clouds relentless its not very pleasant beleive me yes it prob will brighten up with a wind change and it will be in the west this time with misty low cloud so i for one will understand when they have a moan it is afterall the moaning thread @ shedhead i saw your post as i wrote mine seeing u have lived by coastThe latest guidance suggests something of a switch around in fortunes, at least for the next few days, with eastern coasts clearing whilst mist, fog and low cloud occasionally laps onto exposed western coasts. That still looks pretty much the only real fly into the ointment for the south at least, then later this week it's all change again as winds swing back into to NE, unfortunately for much of the east coast just in time for the weekend. It does feel rather churlish to complain about minor stuff like this though given the overall synoptics.

The curse of the north sea cack has come back yesterday it was 22c already at this time this morning its only 14c i thought the winds were changing to a more westerly direction hopefully the low cloud burns away and wind changes
-
yeah thats what happened facinating things i just had to leg it coz sand was getting in my eyes n on my chips hahaMust have been. Can get them any time it gets hot and sunny as rising warm air meets the horizontal wind, causing rotation. Don't just get them in dusty areas of course, just they are most visible then. Had a few of them hit the garden. Blue skies, hot, gentle breeze and then the wind seems to turn gale force for a few seconds before returning to normal.

Can someone help me out here i think it was last friday i went to skeggy beach with the missus lovely day clear blue skies light winds i was sitting on a wall eating my chips when all of a sudden the wind picked up got very strong and started rotating very fast i had to run out the way and when i looked up i could see rubbish twisting in the sky above was quite freaky i thought it could of been a dust devil but thought it couldnt be could it ??
-
Im not moaning about this weather after low cloud and cool thru this week i for one welcome this lovely weather it is a bonus tho being by a beach got up to 25.6c which is pretty good for here on east coast just got home after spending 4 hours at beach even with north east wind its been glorious today B)
-
where bouts are u its lovely here in skeg stillBah yet again the North sea is throwing it's low cloud rubbish at us. Even a SSE wind bring it in. Unbelievable. Sunny day forecast. Nope just disappointment for the scores of people at the beach.
-
Enjoyed today we got up to 25.5c which is great considering look north said it would only be 18c thomaz from bbc just said on 5 live this high pressure could be with us for at least 10 days or so B)
-
Its turned out to be a lovely day here in skeggy feels very pleasant feels like its got warmer throughout today lovely B) its currently 23c going by pws weather station
-
well we finally have some sun here clouds breaking up now quite quickly the wind direction makes all the difference feels like were finally joining the partyI would say there is a reasonable chance of an east/west split setting up at the end of next week with low cloud and cooler temperatures affecting the eastern half of the UK with the west still basking on very warm conditions with plenty of sunshine. But from today until next Wednesday it is looking better for those in the east with less cloud and some very warm temperatures early on next week as winds temporarily swing round to a westerly direction.
-
cheers frosty yeah them temps are fine for me dont like it to hot.its just the north easterly wind just seen on bbc weather alex deakin showing the core of the heat moving south eastwardsTemperatures on the east coast are 19-22c which is quite good with broken clouds & sunny spells, it should get even warmer in the days ahead as things hot up inland.
-
what bout lincs will it be same old story cool n cloudy while everyone else has warm/hot daysAt least the next 5 days look dry and very warm for the bulk of England and Wales. Crucially we will lose the northeasterly so Yorkshire, East Midlands and East Anglia should be substantially warmer in the coming days although i suspect temperatures will continue to be supressed right on the coast, but that is not unusual.
-
kool thanks cs the clouds are breaking today the suns popping out quite a few times bringing the temp upLooks like an improving picture from tomorrow, looks like the low cloud will clear away. Winds will be more westerly based from then onwards
-
yep same for here weve only had one good day that was tuesday the low cloud along the east coast is meaning while its summer everywhere else were stuck under cool and cloudy people talking about a breakdown it hasnt even been hot here yet to get a breakdown am hoping this time we get some summer weathergreat 18z, looks hot from saturday onwards, this week has been ordinary so far here, i just hope next week don't downgrade as this time last week the models had it hot for this week and it hasn't been hot at all here,

mornin Frosty just quick question on the last map where it shows numbers over sea are they the actual sea temps or air tempsPretty fair 00z output overall this morning, at least for the south with high pressure or at least a strong ridge holding across the south with fine and warm weather in control, the gem 00z has an unsettled and cooler blip next week but then shows a recovery as high pressure builds in again, the navgem and gfs are looking good for the south but the north of the uk will probably be turning more unsettled at times but for the south there is little or nothing to moan about really, plenty for folk in scotland to moan about though as time goes on.

Agree mushy last week even paul husdon said on look north about best spell in 7 years didnt even mention on friday that yesterday( monday) would be cool with low cloud they was banging "The best spell since 2006" drum we had a nice weekend but thats it even when it was warm the nights didnt feel like summer still had a chill in the airduff heatwave.... another example of a cooler then expected spell. ever since the cold spring things have struggled to get above average. early junes week of sun was nice enough but cool considering the time of year, now this heatwave that supposed to rival 06 simply isnt. whilst some areas are basking, others arent. i wouldnt mind so much if 21c in a ne breeze was predicted, but it wasnt, we were promised 27c... 6c is hell of a wrong prediction at such short range.

some places have not had any real heat ok weekend was fine but during every warm spell us in east have suffered with low cloud and north easterlies its the story off this summer i for one prefer high to the south east for a southerly flowBut what about what we have now? Miles better than anything we had last year- some people have got real heat from this setup (29C for example in a number of places) and not just in the south. No doubt a high to the east is preferable in an ideal world but this will do just nicely, we may get a spell of north westerlies but we even had them briefly in July 2006. Storms are just an extra for me, the warm sunshine will do nicely, don't get why they're so sought after really with the amount of rain we get already!Just thought I should add actually, I do realise that you're further east Mushy so I can see why you're view of this setup might be slightly different to mine in the west but all the same your area has had some hot conditions and will do again before the week is out.
