  1. It looks as though we are struggling with this being the sunniest summer on record. It needs August to record 210.6hrs at least to achieve this.

    Using Philip's value as a rough guide, it needs the second half of August to be almost twice as sunny as the first half and with the length of the days steadily contracting, it is going to be a struggle.

    Yes it's been incredibly dull compared to the two previous.Vitrually every day this month I've opened the curtains of the morning to see depressing greyness,hopefully more sunshine for the second half of the month.

  2. Any bets that a maximum of at least 30.0C+ will not be reached this August, anywhere, (Channel Islands included)? The last time that happened was August 1993.

    I'm not going to bet on it but it would be sensational if we failed to hit it after the very warm June and exceptional July,that would make it quite a turnaround.But I can see a 30C somewhere towards the end of the month.

  3. I feel we will see the hottest day since records begun in this month it will be another exceptionally warm month with a CET of around 17.5C,a similar month to August 2003.Isn't 15.2C more or less exactly average by the way?

  4. July 1999 was definately sunnier than June 2006.As Summer of 95 has said,the second half of the month was actually quite dull while that July was sunny all month,rather like this July,but of course this July is much hotter.

  5. Well I haven't recorded a below 20C day this month,which speaks for itself.This has certainly been an exceptioanal month and I can't even see a below 25C day for the remainder of the month now so we will almost certainly reach the hottest July on record.Even the brief spell of cooler nights did'nt have much of an effect.

  6. If we end up with a very hot July (hottest ever) combined with a very warm June and warm May and then probably a hot August we would need a dramatic cooldown to put us below a yearly CET below 10.0c.

    The only month that saved 1995 from being the hottest on record was the very cold December. Decembers recently have shown a slight cooling, so perhaps a very cold December could pull us below the 10.0c mark.

    Slight cooling for December's.In my experience in the last few years they have been mild and dull.I don't think we will see a cold December this year either,I can see another dry and mild one,though I can see quite a cold November possibly like last year's November,and I think we could be also in for a much more chilly October this year,a 2003 like October possibly.But I can't see past a very warm September or August meaning the yearly CET won't be below 10.0C.So I'm predicting that overall I predict the yearly CET will be 10.14C

  7. Well today has been a goodbye to the lovely warm wall to wall sunshine days with a high of 24C.It's cooling rapidly now :D .Also the cool breeze was still with us today.But it's goodbye to that and the fresher conditions now and tommorow it will be welcome back to the hot weather with very uncomfortable nights :)

  8. We did'nt get as much rain as expected either but thankfully saw some decent rainfall last week to keep us going for a week or two.At least the grass is a little greener now but will more than likely turn brown again by next weekend.
