80f is hot. not all of us go on holidays to the equator. 90F i consider as dangerously very hot.

yes was a nightmare. fatigue, swimming in sweat, health issues. horrible. another mini one due soon I think according to weather pattern predictions.

Its been dry here in leics last week or so since I posted. No rain but also not much sun temperatures mild. I noticed tho my room is suddenly getting warmer right now and it made me check on forecasts which seem to indicate warmer weather again so will see what happens tommorow. the real heatwave type weather looks to be predicted around 21-24 august and the jetstream forcecast shows similiar to how was in july with it arching above the uk.

check rainfall accumulation 3 hour graph wow. Basically nearly all of the uk has had rain in last 3 hours except for a oval shape around leicester. So it seems my area is under a hole in a cloud covering the country. sorry man I read derbyshire peak and thought derby.

you know why the same areas keep getting the cloud and rain? wales looks like its constant rain all week. spreading to west midlands. But then seems to be a dry streak up east of there.

derby not too far from leics yet you seem to have polar opoosite weather to me consistently, bizarre. yeah the radar shows what I been frustrated with cloud moving up same part of the country every day and seems to be just a bit too west, hitting birmingham, scraping nottingham, covering derby leics in the clear. that cloud started moving north now so wont reach me but looks frustratingly close.

yesterday was decent no sun at all in afternoon so no temp surge in afternoon. sadly today the sun is back but met is predicting 80% chance of rain after 4pm. so will see. This morning temps were almost 2C higher than yesterday tho indicating warmer air has moved in. I got the trial upgrade now as well so access to extra netweather data. The radar seems to be confirming what I see out my window, constant cloud (and rain) on west side of country especially wales. Looks closish to leicester but missing, seems I am most days just a bit too far east of the path of these clouds. But I can see now its about to get darker, as the cloud is moving east not north this time.

I subscribed now to the lite service I like that rain radar, but I think I want the service above it the extra lite so asked for the 7 day trial to see if I like it, thanks for the pointer. The radar now shows leics right at the tip of a new lot of rain, I see wales has the best of it. Just outside now the sun went in and started raining lightly. Cloud came from behind me so I didnt see ti coming.

I check weather news and accuweather. I didnt know the met office did local forecasts. any idea why the same areas keep getting the rain and others consistent dry? its been sunny all day so far, with some clouds over me but they small, tons of cloud to the west. thanks for the info on both local met and net wx radar.

lol why do the same guys keep getting the rain? I swear its still sunny here. whats going on? again that usual cloud to the west in the same spot.

clear blue sky, can see clouds to west.temps are similiar to yesterday.

yeah I might subscribe if thats zoomable, I gues thats what you guys all use?Desperate for rain here, last 3 days predicted rain and clouds, both fri and sat largely sunny, always can see clouds to west so frustrating.Today predicted fully cloudy with rain, sunny this morning with blue sky. They every day predicting clouds wrong.

Heavy rain for leics got a massive 2-3 minutes of rain. For round here thats a LOT of rain. Sun already back out. Thats the rain done for august.

temps started 2.5C lower than yesterday, even tho its sunny (yesterday was cloudy this time) its almost 3C lower. Room temp hit the 22s and is now 24.0. Outside feels fresh and cool currently but is sunny and although predicted rain looks unlikely currently. No wind or breeze. The light clouds that do exist are moving very slowly as well. Official max temps for my area yesterday were 25C which surprised me. currently I measuring outside temp as 19C, yesterday was 22.1 this time. We did have rain during night whilst I slept.

wow, clouds round here never get that dark. those clouds I seen in distance I guess were over west midlands. Regarding today its much cooler air, its sunny but my room is at 23.1C 2 degrees lower than yesterday when cloudy. To the west I am seeing what looks odd, like dark poofs of smoke moving fast and low, I guess very died out decayed storm clouds, they small so I describe them as poofs of smoke. Above them to the west also is larger higher white clouds which are barely moving, above me is the usual blue sky.

yesterday before I went bed it did suddenly feel cooler, not sure why. I had shut my room door so the air from the front door which I had open all day stopped and room temp shot up to 29.9C but felt cool at same time, sun at that point was mostly under cloud cover so its entirely possible that was the reason but I think instead we finally got that cold front that was promised earlier in the day. When I did let air flow from front door again temps were going down fast but I shut my window and door and went to bed. Now with window and door open again and woken up at 3.30am so much less time than yesterday with letting night air in my room temps are already down to 24C and standing outside feels way cooler than same time yesterday. So my conclusion is on fri 2 august, there was a predicted cold front and cloud, but my area instead was limited to clouds in the morning and early evening, most afternoon was blue sky with the warm air still present from thursday. I think the lower predictions were based on that cold front and cloud. When the actual temps get published later today I be very surprised if they below 27.

still bone dry here, no whisper of a storm. just very broken up clouds.

clouds breaking up constant sun again now. I think I am in the dryest part of country today.

I posted those clear sky pics i think an hour or so ago. now suddenly a cloud appeared overhead, from my window it looks almost dominating and solid but its not quite covering the sky as the sun is coming in and out of view and I can see to the south many gaps in the cloud. temp inside peaked at 29C dropping to 28.7C when cloud appeared, outside temp dropped by 1C down to 27.5C from 28.5C

I posted my photos in my gallery. showing clear blue sky wth the heat, but clouds to west that look heavy.
