    Another horrid day GFS suggests a chance of much higher temperateness several days well above 30 for several days.  I ain't laughing at it after last year. If it came off 34C to 35C for quite bit of the country with +20 850 layer not far from the south west.

    You're not the only one thinking this-i'm fast thinking we should all emigrate somewhere cooler between the Spring Bank Holiday and And the Summer Bank Holiday if this is "the new normal" 

    after last year, Summer can basically do one until it deciedes to throw another 2007/12 style summer at us-i think i prefer that to this disgusting prolonged heat.

    Current model output is vile. We couldn't get an easterly wind in the winter for love nor money.

     

    When we get them in the summer, being in the north west is like a neverending oven. At least your area is off the hook if the winds become north easterly again

    And yet when we do get an easterly it's in entirely the wrong season.

    Please can the models switch off the ovens and send some rain our way please-preferably before Glastonbury and Wimbledon happen otherwise Sheffield will be back to square one in terms of the river levels-imagine if we haven't had both the snowmelt from the snowday and the wet April-we would be in trouble by now.

    This feels like the exact equivalent of last December, but that being a severe cold spell and this being prolonged heat. Hopefully it all breaks down as it did in mid December. 

    It broke down earlier than that when we had the rains in October/November. 

  4. And just when the rivers had refilled when we had the wet spell from  March to Coronation Day, we're now back to square one and possibly back on drought watch-let's just hope things don't get as bad as they did last year.

    Watched Gavin's forecast and indeed it looks like a colder scenario is more likely to play out which probably means the C.E.T. will start to take a tumble.

    I imagine after today it'll plateau then start to fall with perhaps a slow and steady decline.

    I'd feel quite confident about a finish in the mid 7s to low 8s at this point. I think because we're already halfway through the month and its a warming time of year it is unlikely to go under 7 now because you'd need some quite extreme cold ala 1981/1908 and while there is some persistently cold/chilly weather on the way I don't think it's quite record level. I'm thinking of April 2016 which was similarly running close to normal and ended cold and ended up at 7.5C so maybe something like that. What's interesting to note is that if we do end up quite cool then that's two chilly Aprils in the past couple of years. Not much to note in older times but since we've seen so few cold Aprils since 1992 it's notable the shift.

    Rainfall wise it's looking wet to me for the rest of April regardless of if it's cool or genuinely cold. Looking like a very wet March/April combo now. Good news as far as I'm concerned going into the summer!

    And if i was reading Gavin's video right it looks both May Day and the weekend of the Coronation could both be grim weather wise-still 2-3 weeks away on both so we shall see.
