Oh well, perhaps we can look at Heathrow again tomorrow and see its hot ( no records broken) AGAIN,
That's great for the storm starved SE,.....Yawn....
Models showing temps falling back over the coming days.
UKMO for instance, has 'uppers' back close to average in a few days.
Warm yes and probably more usable weather for many.
Correct.
Accurate temperatures being recorded in the UK are relatively new.
To say 'this' temperature is the highest ever is wrong.
Unfortunately we are missing many centuries of unrecorded temperatures and therefore 'missing' past extremes.
Understand the feeling considering how the SE has missed the storms for some time.
We have 5 days of potential, IMO excellent potential, I get the feeling it will be like buses, wait ages for 1 then 3 turn up.
That's enough Science from me.
?️
Anyway, there will be storms that I guarantee 100%.
I can also guarantee that 100% of people wont get them.
Good luck!
And if you are able to chase and want your guarantee, then do so.
Way off the 40c that some said was possible for today.
For the UK to get that number you would need every single parameter to align perfectly.
That's why 40c has never been 'recorded' in the UK, sure it can be said that cloud scuppered it or a change in wind direction but that's what you have with an island and not with a land locked continental country.
