    Looking at the model output today, perhaps for the first time ever I feel a genuine pit in my stomach/sadness that this is even a possibility. I think anyone with a working brain can put together now that something is seriously wrong with our climate. Highs in the low 40s and lows in the mid 20s should not be happening for the southeast, let alone north of the Midlands. I think we can only hope for a last minute downgrade, but I think that's wishful thinking at the moment. Unbelievable stuff really. If this truly does come off I think it will be a wake up call to really see what we can do to limit the effects in the future, even if we have to turn to artifical means like spraying aerosols etc. Who knows. I doubt I'm the only one who's just a bit flabbergasted by it all! 

    It was only 4 years  ago that we were seeing record lows - remember the beast from the east in 2018.

    That UKMO is an outliner, and a wild one at that. I would be very surprised if there was much in the way of cloud, much less rain. UKMO is often poor at longer range and it's fairly common to see it forecast temps that are at least 10c lower than what materializes. I would trust the ECM and GFS much more.

    Trust the GFS over the UKMO - LOL

     

    UKMO - suggests cloud and then rain/showers pushing north and east from the south west during Sunday. It will still be warm but tempeatures topping out in the high 20's.

    Will be interesting to see the ECM shortly

    You are taking raw data as gospel far too much here- I don't believe Tuesday will only reach 23C- certainly not inland where I live. I also don't see how Thursday is going to max out at 18C- even the BBC have 20C here and they are usually too conservative a few days out. Last week we were struggling to get above 18C here with the persistent cloud- so not 'as you were'.

    You're also overlooking the fact that today has been upgraded- hardly a cloud today and we could reach 25C in Manchester. Tomorrow is also showing 29C here now as well- a genuinely hot day by anyone's definition and hotter than anything we had in June here.

    The FAX charts show a cold front pushing cloud and cooler temperatures from Tuesday and straggling the southern half of the country by Wednesday. This will certainly suppress temperatures for a large part of the UK.

    Temperatures will rise and sunshine returns later in the week.

    I always read the Fax charts - they show the detail.

    Stunning period of weather coming up☀️☀️ At least a week of sunshine and heat, which is unlike a normal one day wonder when if you blink you’ll miss it!

    Not for the north midlands including Derbyshire. After Monday clouds will increase and temperatures will return to normal to slightly above.

    A chance of some warmer weather next weekend but that is a long way off

    Dreadful runs this morning for the North West. Barely squeezing one day of warm weather before the cool Atlantic returns. 

    Talk of record breaking temperatures are pure fantasy.

    I said this yesterday - it was very clear that a change was on its way from next Tuesday/Wednesday.

    Still looks decent for the south and temperatures likely to hit 32c for a time.
