21.7°C, overcast, again.
The constant cloud is getting very tedious, it has to be said.

This thread has been started exceptionally early. Good idea would be to close it and open it in a month's time. How can anyone moan or comment on autumn when we're not even halfway through summer?

And yet, we will have the same old posters calling me out later today at 3pm saying how lovely sunny and warm it is, but they still ignore how poor the mornings are.
I think "sunny" to some people on here means anything that's not entirely dark.

Seen comments saying "fine sunday". What? It's been overcast all day here which has kept the temperature pegged back to 18-19 degrees. Cool and cloudy, rather autumnal compared to the 26 degrees and sunny in France last week.

20°C exactly at 13:18, with a low hanging tupperware overcast.

Years I don't remember anything weather wise, or were boring:
1993, 1996, 1998, 2002, 2004, 2005, 2008, 2011, 2017, and 2019 so far.
Don't remember any notable good summer weather, storms or anything interesting in these years. In 2005 everybody went on about a big thunderstorm outbreak on 31st August, which is my birthday, but even though I lived in the middle of the storm zone I don't remember anything happening at all, must of missed me.

It reached 21°C here, followed by a sudden moderate shower from the west. That was actually the first rain I've seen this month, but then I was in Margate from 1st-6th July, then central France from 6th-12th July, and it didn't rain in either place when I was there. I've certainly come back to traditional northern English weather, cool, cloudy and damp. Not moaning though, it's exactly what is says on the can.

Today's weather is cool and cloudy alright, but that's fine by me for once, after having some proper summer weather abroad it makes a nice change

Just got back from my holiday in Central France, where it was 27-31°C everyday and sunny. The sun is so unbelievably strong there compared to the UK. Wow. Seeing as I was doing some activities it was a bit much even for me at times. The cold, cloudy weather I have arrived back to here is almost welcome lol. That ever present grey, low cloud that looks like you can reach out and touch it. Not seen that for many days that's for sure!

It depends where you used to live? The average Max at low level for June in south Yorkshire is 20.7 C, that is over the past 20-21 years at my site, about 40 ft above msl. It was about 19.5 C from 1942-1995 at RAF Finningley. My temperatures, prior to actually keeping a record, showed my avge Max in summer was about 0.5 C above RAF Finningley (Robin Hood Airport now)
That sounds pretty mild. I'm at 93m ASL so a bit cooler on average. My weather station has recorded an average max of 20°C between 17th-28th of this month (there were technical issues before that so no more data from earlier on).
Anyway today's stats here:
Max 29.3°C
Min 13.3°C
Quite a warm afternoon.

Looking good up there!!!
To be fair it’s the North’s time for a chance at glory...although admittedly it is utterly stealing here (app says 33C)
Last thunderstorm here was September 2016.

Thankfully nowhere near the temps predicted in South Yorkshire,just scrapped 26c which will be a max today i suspect. Lot better than i was expecting!
You must live upland then, because it's just reached 29°C here.
-
Utterly galling that they should be getting big storms and not England as well lol.

You have a heck of a lot cold days then
Yes, to me average summers in Northern England are quite chilly. But then I grew up in a warmer climate. To people who grew up in Northern England they're more used to cold summers of course. I mean 13 days this month failed to achieve a high of 18 degrees, and that's meant to be summer? LOL.
-
If people even think today's weather is too hot then they need to spend a few weeks in a country that actually gets "hot" summers. i.e. places where about 98% of the world's population live and don't whinge about it.
Anyway it's 27 degrees here and very pleasant. Not even close to hot, and very comfortable outside with my usual 2-3 layers on.

26°C here and few clouds.
Close to my minimum temperature to be considered a warm/mild day in summer.
-
I have little confidence in any type of record going tomorrow. I think London will reach some annoying temperature like 29.9°C and that will be the hottest for England this summer, then more northerlies til September.
-
Cool start with cloud which cleared at 11AM to leave a day of few clouds.
Low 12.3°C, high 22.7°C and still 19.9°C at 8:10PM.

One annoying thing I noticed this week is that with all the media bleating of "heatwave", stores everywhere have turned their Air Conditioning on full blast even though it's been average or even below average temperatures most of the time. As a result it's been utterly freezing inside most places, almost unbearably cold with drafts of ice cold air coming from the ceiling, ridiculous.
-
13:34
19.4°C, 65% humidity.
The refreshing heatwave continues, nice cool but sunny day.
-
I went out for the day to the most perfect city in England (in my opinion) but in the evening when I got back, I noticed the temperature in my apartment was only 18°C. Not so good eh.
-
This month's failed heatwave (compared to what charts showed not long ago and the now well below forecast temperatures even based on yesterday's forecast) makes any other failed heatwaves in my memories pale in comparison. This June is only slightly "better than" 2012, and a lot colder (though drier) than June 2007. Still been my worst June in many years. At the end of the day you really have to laugh at what a fail the climate of the UK is. Just can't do anything. No snow last winter, failed heatwave with maxes of 14°C, it is very funny really.
