  1. True. That's the thing about this summer. Even after very warm /hot days in London the nights have been remarkably cool which is no bad thing imo.
  2. Why is everyone so interested in the temperature in London on Friday all of a sudden even though they dont live here?Bonkers. Don't all turn up on Friday to see/feel/smell/take pictures of the heat, going to be hot enough here!
  3. Well whatever the models show London is having and probably will continue to have a splendid spell of weather. 26c again today with good sunny spells.
  4. The 12z certainly continues the NW/SE split until late next week when it becomes widely much more unsettled. Very little in the way of decent weather midlands northwards until early August at this stage.
  5. Beautiful morning once again in the capital. Sunny spells, and a fresh 15c. Only going up to 19/20c today, cloudy. Ideal for outdoor working. Lovely.
  6. Pretty accurate i would say. Certainly been a decent summer so far here in the capital so far. Temps regularly in the mid 20s,plenty of sunshine and just the right amount of rain. Ive been in the mudlands and Northern England for work occasionally and yes it has been pretty dire up there.
  7. Im quite enjoying this cool damp weather. Nice and refreshing. It cant be sunny and hot all the time. This is the Uk, not the Mediterranean. It ll end up being a fairly average summer down here in the SE. Miserable from the Midlands northwards though.
  8. Yes, some proper rain at last. Not your fleeting shower type. Will do the soil and vegetation on my allotment wonders. Looking pretty damp for the next few days. Quite humid though at 19c today in the capital.
  9. I think its now time to call Summer 2020. With the latest model downgrade i think we can confidently say Summer 2020 will be summarised as follows: SE England SW England South Midlands Average with some brief warmer spells. Midlands and Wales Poor summer overall with above average number of wet dull spells. Scotland N England N Ireland Well below average temperatures and above average rainfall.
  10. All runs definitely going for a NW/SE split by this time next week.
  11. Yes, a distinct lack of thunder in London this so called summer so far, despite met forecasting it quite regularly. Someone has just said that our Met Service are the best in the world. LMFHO!!! On the MAD thread mind you. They may aswell be forecasting the weather on Mars this last few days for the London area imo.
  12. Yes, you guys up there will always get a good deluge at some stage. Down here we can go weeks on end without a drop. That's what irks me with folk in the winter that complain about the rain, or anything that isnt snow! We need the blinking rain!!! Nice commute to work by the way mate.
  13. Surprisingly not actually. The reservoirs serving the London area are about 92% full as off the end of May. The Thames Water website has all the info. Winter was very wet and they seem to have sorted out their leak problems.
  14. Hang in there! This hideous heat will be all over tommorow, thank god!
  15. The 00z and fax definitely paint an unsettled and changeable picture right out to 6/7 days. Just heard some weather bod on LBC london mention wet and autumnal. Still, we've had some nice weather so can't complain. Atlantic taking over now.
  16. Just a hotish June day in London. 31.2c. Nothing exceptional. Cools down from tommorow.
  17. Yes, as i predicted, the crazy high temperatures forecast for the region earlier in the week have been watered down. I suspect somewhere may get to 32c but wont be widespread. Fairly standard June fare for the SE. Two hot days and a rumble of thunder. I do wish they would bring back the laughter emoji.... just for the Mad thread.
  18. Great pictures as ever. Postcard stuff! We don't get much photograhic opportunities like that down here in the land of bland.
  19. Late Thursday and certainly Friday will see quite alot of high and mid level cloud which will surpress the temperature somewhat. I would say max 31c somewhere just NE of London. Much cooler and more mixed afterwards.
  20. Fairly normal June day in the capital at 21c with sunny spells. Very pleasant actually with a nice breeze. Quite alot of hysteria elsewhere on the site about the heat later this week. 2 days of temps above 30c in SE in June is hardly exceptional.
  21. Yes indeed. Looking increasingly likely it will be a very brief hot spell focused mostly on the south and east. Unsettled mostly, from midlands northwards. Cooler for all next weekend and beyond.
  22. Certainly the 6z has watered down any prospects if a prolonged heat spell. As has been said, nothing unusual for SE this time of year. 3 hotish days and then a cool off. Remaining cool and rather unsettled midlands northwards throughout the period.
  23. Torrential rain now again in the capital after yesterday's deluge and last nights soaking. Certainly very welcome. No drought problems this summer. My allotment is loving it!! Temperature just 16c though. Much cooler than forecast. Fairly poor forecasting generally this last few days.
  24. The dicrepancy between the BBC and Met Office forecasts for the SE have been unbelievable during this last 7 days or so. And to be fair, the BBC/MetoGroup have been far and away the more accurate. Gone very dull in SW London at 21c.
  25. The 12z certainly painting a wet and unsettled spell coming up for the SE. Big change from a few weeks back.
