Currently 31.6c here, lovely afternoon! Why does it have to end!?!?!

Reached 33.3c here today, will be interesting to see what happens tomorrow!

Mostly Cloudy, 23.7c

Mostly Sunny, a few clouds 22.3c

true i didnt't think about that, i fully expect a Recon flight to 96L by Wednesday, if not before, will be interesting to watch to see what happens here

nothing planned, however they do oddly have flights planned for Invest 95L?

I can easily see 96L developing this week, possibly at Cat 2/3 htting Texas/Mexico at the weekend?

in the hope that the heatwave conditions pick up again in July i'm going for 18c. Optimistic i know!

Been a lovely day today, high of 31c, still 26.4c

Alex had made landfall overnight, now crossing the Yucatan Peninsula as a Tropical Storm, but soon expected to downgrade to a depression (by next advisory at 1pm uk time). He looks to move into the gulf of mexico late today where he will rapidy develop to a Category 2 Hurricane before making his second landfall in the North of Mexico late Thursday, the track shows that he could cross over into the the Pacific Ocean as a depression, if this happens it could develop rapidly again as a Pacific Storm, most likely to Major Hurricane status as conditions seem favourable. Very intestesting first storm!

Alex only just a Tropical Storm, much strong and it'll be classed a Cat 1

Next advisory 4pm (9pm UK Time)

Latest forecast show's the storm making a second landfall late Wed/Early Tues as a Cat 1 Hurricane. So looks like the first system is going to be Hurricane! Exciting!

I think if this pulls through and makes it to the Gulf of Mexico it could make Hurricane Status

so when do the new features start, eh?

If you read up it seems to be liveing up once again, this could well be a TD/TS in a few days.

which i was a bit more northwest!!

what was the weather like last year, i can't remeber, i'm guessing wet going by tradition!

Not good

agreed!

glad i'm not the only one watching that!

Certainately keeping an eye on this one, just incase something happens!

Am hoping for some storms here in Maidstone, it's been pretty much storm free apart from 1!! rumble of thunder yesterday, although i am remaining doubtful that tomorrow will produce anything here other than rain!

Last night was a bit disappointing, got up this morning and the ground was bone dry, looked back at the radar to find that the storms literally broke up around Maidstone and then re-joined on the other side, it's as if we had some sort of barrier around us!!

Looking good for Kent and Sussex tonight, have just issued a weather watch for thunderstorms on my site!
