Not really lol, but those sort of temperatures are unheard of here period. Especially for 2 to 3 days on trot. But even so would probably battle on 24 isothern over most of england and wales. Is 40c+ possible within that?

20 isothern on shetland door step, its unbelievable!!

That wpuld be a massive shock for parts of yorkshire. Usually a struggle to get anywhere above 30c. So 36 to 39 degrees widely would be a massive shock and let alone near or above the national record! Leeds, huddersfield, york, sheffield potential to smash their records by a margin if this pans out

Saturday on the ukmo is looking even hotter than 00z for saturday. The uppers are ranging from 18 to 25c across england! Surely mid to high 30s there! The record in 2003 was with 20c uppers!

Its so strange in the last couple years a lot of countries are smashing all time records by quite up to 4 to 6 degrees! Its occuring places you would never think and i agree with your post. 38.7 is the hottest temperature and yet that could potentially be smashed by a huge margin in a large swathe of the country. Leeds touching nearly 40c on the 12z! Absolutly ridiculous when you think the record of 38.7 was probably an isolated area!

So glad I have a holiday booked to canaries in september. I don't have high hopes for this summer. I don't think this spring has been particularly memorable to be honest. Its feels more like end of october than may! I don't remember a spring with such a lack of anything over 20c. I know 30c doesnt always occur before summer, but in an apparent warming climate its much more common these days. We have been spoilt rotten last decade or so for bouts of warmth/heat in both seasons. Think that trend may buckle this year. Seem to be struggling with widespread warmth this year across the country

Anyone know the wind/gust strengths for are region from Franlkin. Felt way worse this morning on way to work and how the hell all this came to just a yellow warning is beyond me! All the flooding across Yorkshire, Rotherham looks a dire state. God knows what would be needed for a red warning in our region. 100s of flood warning and barely a mention in the media..

Just seen my bad. Thank you

80mph gusts inland and 70s fairly widely. Get the impression this has been underestimated or im reading into it wrong. Especially when the worst of it looks to be early hours into rush hour?

Winds suddenly ramping up here. Last hour was just relatively windy, only now its starting to get very wild. With sodden ground, trees most likely be pulled down quite easy

Wind is starting to pick up more here now has anyone else noticed? Last hour or so just relatively windy, only now its start to ramp up. Very worrying night with sodden ground, will quite easily pull trees down...

I said something similar earlier as well. Its bad enough having 2 seperate yellow warning for both wind and rain, but it only warrants a yellow, on the back of eunice that still came with a punch up here! All the snow melt on top. Its diabolical on the mets part. Its like they dont get the weather up here.

Not sure why northwest and pennine areas are in yellow for wind and rain! I would understand if this was the first instance, but eunice still packed a punch and the strongest winds are showing in the north of england. After days of heavy rainfall and weakened infrastructure, you would have expected at least an amber warning.If this had occurred further south, there would be amber... Its very bog here at the minute, i live on a hill, so i can only imagine how bad it will get for those on lower ground and near streams and rivers. They never seem to take it seriously in these particular parts at all and its annoying

The winds across the northwest and pennines warrant an amber warning surely! On top of the current YELLOW rain warning thats currently over parts of northwest and yorkshire after storm eunice as well. Ridiculous! I know Eunice was much worse further south, but it did pack quite a punch up here and if anything storm franklin has some very high gusts projected for these parts. Which is only going to add to the problems already occured in theae areas.

Getting very bad here now! Worse windstorm for a long time!

Anyone know if the southern pennines will have a bigger impact from the winds due to geographic nature and under the inpacts of such a powerful storm?

Anyone seen lighting? Seen a few now! Also note winds really fire up and seems to calm for a few minutes. Weird.

Some sort of squall like feature just went through 10 minutes ago, very gusty winds, poor visibility and lashing with rain. That was crazy 5 minutes! Sure i saw one flash of lightning earlier also!

Im a bit concerned now. Its slightpy trended north this brings more of the north of england in line, seems there will be no escape from this one. These things usually downgrade near the time frame, but its seems to be bring more areas in line and the intensity more or less the same, if not worse. Red warnings tomorrow?

Thats a chart you would expect if AMOC collapsed or slowing down. Still thing that would be the way to go if it did ever happen. Still think the last few years have been some sort of transition period possibly of it slowing down a bit, could be why weather has been so unusual the last few years. Maybe this is why the last few years has been so up and down in extremes, though i still can't decide whether this is just climate change or as i say a slow transition to something much more off scale. Very interesting times i think. Only look at this winter to see how unusually high pressure influenced and lack of atlantic attacks.

Any news on how the gulf stream is behaving in recent times? Evidence of a it slowing down or nearly on it ways out i have heard in recent years. I did read somewhere a complete shutdown if happened would only take up to 2 to 3 years!

Do you have a link to this? Presuming this is suggestion is to happen in are lifetimes with current solar minimum? Do they expect this run of more milder winters to descend more into colder winters again. That would certainly be interesting to me in climate change era. Ive always thought with a warming planet, there would be at least rare occasions for serious cold to get to this part of world, especially with the ever more unbalanced, unstable climate and the warmth getting into higher latitudes.

Correct me if I am wrong, just going by past experience in similar scenarios. If that low tracks south at end of week, then a strong possibility of pulling in E/NE winds and convective snow showers off north sea? Just a thought, because in my opinion I don't see the snow line getting up here in time for christmas, they very rarely do.

Further south is better for all. More than likely end up in an east to north easterly flow by time it gets to christmas. Snow showers and convection off the north sea would come into play near time as the time period comes into high res. So i don't believe it will be an issue if it ends up anywhere further south to be fair. They usually end up further south like you say.

Will take p14 over any run that I have ever seen in model watching for run up to christmas. Crazy!
