First full day back home after just under a week away in Marbella. 26°C and feeling juicy!

richie3846 I actually recorded my joint lowest ever humidity reading during that August heatwave. July’s blip was much more humid.
June 2018 was the other occasion.

Scorcher I’m abroad at the moment but when I get back I’ll dig out my records off the main computer and post

Remember this may quite well. Particularly the gales and volume of rain on the 04th-05th, and the thunderstorms on the 10th-11th (a common time for thunderstorms). As you mention, it was the unusual combination of warm hazy sunshine and N-S movement of storms. The sort of weather more common when they move E-W.
That was the last sizeable rainfall until the 31st/01st, then another long rainless spell until the 21st June… before that notable summer gale! The summer never quite recovered after that.

Harry233 2009 is actually a really good comparison. June the best month, July horrific, and August fair.
Shame we couldn’t have had a 09/10 winter redux…

Get back from Marbella on Saturday. The weather has one job… be nice on Sunday! Even in 2024, can it manage that?

Scorcher I live in the west and it’s not uncommon.

WYorksWeather Not uncommon to have mid twenties at all. Such happened in 2001, 2004, 2006, 2008, 2011, 2014, 2016, 2018, 2020 give or take a week…

The dizzy heights of 18.4°C were reached today. Plenty of sun too!

Nope. Just pointing out what the models are showing. Try again.

No I think it has to stop completely, at least for a few weeks!

Wasn't June 18 actually quite westerly until the 20th?
There was a westerly interlude from the 13th to the 20th, but up until that point it and thereafter very much not.

danm Looks like I was in one of the driest parts of the country relative to average. Not surprising as we bagged 58mm for the month… the driest month since last August’s 49mm!

Absolutely pouring down outside... seemingly out of nowhere. Atmosphere is certainly ripe for last minute shenanigans.

stainesbloke Could’ve been 2007 or 2011, although the latter wasnt sunny.
Here’s 2009:

Scorcher around the time of that map it was actually 16°C here, not the 14 shown, so it’s not been tooooo bad. Getting very dull now though.

stainesbloke In London? I think it was recently warm that month in London without ever being overly hot. Lots of southwesterly winds so humid air. The final weekend was much fresher though following a gale on the 28th.

SunSean You’re being plagued by cloud going up the east coast and I’m being plagued by cloud up the west coast.
Sunny intervals though and although windy, the air is quite warm.

Had a decent if brief thunderstorm at 4pm here which seemed to form and back build overhead before pushing north.
Already feeling much fresher again now.
