  1. Ecija 46.5c at 4pm Spanish time. 0.8c off the Spanish record. Whether it achieved that in around that hour we'll have to wait and see. Cordoba airport hasn't updated last hour that's one to watch. Some other locations have 47c from a map I saw on twitter but can't confirm the legitimacy of that.
  2. How hot could Spain get over the next couple of days? Any chance of beating the above temperature?
  3. That was a silly mistake by me. I'm sleep deprived haha
  4. Ah right. So the gulf stream while still existing won't have as great of an impact for us this far north as before. Got it. Thanks.
  5. Gulf stream as in the winds in the upper atmosphere won't be affected but the North Atlantic drift could be? Is that what you're saying? I'm slightly confused, how would this affect us if what they fear happens. Thanks.
  6. I believe I read before that the Gulf stream keeps London 5c warmer during Winter. Anyone have any estimates on how warmer it keeps the UK during Winter? If it did collapse and was replaced by a cool water current I think we'd be one of the snowiest locations in the world. Like Northern Japan or Newfoundland.
  7. 69mph highest gust I can see. Recorded on the Isles of scilly
  8. So you think they've got dodgy equipment and the readings are wrong. You do realise the met office investigates records to check their validity. Its not the 3rd world, I'm sure their equipment is just fine and to suggest their entire system is inaccurate and always has been is a bit odd.
  9. Yesterday another station, Killowen, not too far from Ballywhatsit (31.2c) had reached 30.8C which is equal to the Northern Ireland record in June 1976 and July 1983. It will be quality checked anyway before it is verified as a new record.
  10. Hottest day on record for Northern Ireland after Ballywatticock in County Down recorded 31.2C this afternoon. Beats the 30.8C set in 1983 and 1976.
  11. I think a lot were killed while they slept.
  12. The death toll is staggering. Did more rain fall than was forecast? I would have thought a death toll like this wouldn't be possible in somewhere like Germany in the present day, warning systems in place to evacuate people if rivers got beyond a certain point. I can only assume this went beyond their predictions. Some of the pictures look like a tsunami hit.
