14.9C and 85.5mm for me please.

18.3C and 38.5mm for me please.

Thoughts: milder and much wetter than average throughout Sept, Oct and into Nov, whereupon it will switch later on that month to much colder conditions.
Hopes: a continuation of predominantly settled weather into Nov, then the switch to cold, ushering in the coldest winter for decades (no suspots, etc).
I can dream!

A smir of drizzle here this morning, but not enough to actually register on the rain gauge, so that's day 21 without any measurable rainfall, beating the May/June dry spell by a day.
Max of 20.3C today and mostly cloudy until later on when it turned a bit brighter for a while. Very muggy.
A snap of what's left of the Earn from the Comrie FB page - exceptionally low.
As others have said, this is turning into some year weatherwise.

Sounds dodgy to me:
Am secretly quite pleased that Ochtertyre keeps its June record for a wee bit longer.
In other news, scorchio and wall to wall sunshine here again today. We're matching Strathallan for days above 20C per the above table.
It's now day 15 of the current dry spell, too. Grass brown, plants starting to look gubbed. Ditto some of the trees.
If this keeps up into August, we will be talking about it in the same breath as 1976. Some very plausible teleconnection reasons for it doing so have been referred to in the TOORPing threat. Extraordinary summer so far.

Strathallan appears to have topped out at 30.5C at 3pm.

30.3C here now. Properly hot!

23.0C at noon. #scorchio!

At 18.9C at 9 o'clock in the morning and wall to wall sunshine, today is going to be special.
Am going for the all time June high (set just along the road from us at Ochtertyre: 32.2C) to fall today and just short of the all time record. 32.5C somewhere.
Enjoy it, kilters!
PS: who mentioned 1976..?

After a grey start with fog/low cloud this morning, turned into an absolute scorcher of a day. Max of 26.5C - warmest day of the year so far. Tomorrow looks like it will top that. Would be great if somewhere in Scotland can beat the all time record.
Another notably dry spell developing, too, by the looks of things.
A perfect evening for a balloon flight over sunny Perthshire.

Settled, sunny and cloudless with steadily improving temps through the weekend. Max of 23.3C yesterday and already 19.6C this morning. Proper scorchio by the looks of things later on this week and continuing dry and settled in the reliable. Some snaps from yesterday evening on the Langside (the hill road to Comrie). Glorious.

Dear weathergods, please can we have that other weather back again - you know, the nice stuff?
Blowy overnight. Lots of debris on the road - branches, down, etc. Some disruption on the railways, too.
Sunshine and showers and still breezy this morning. Garden: bit of a state. Currently 13.8C.
Hopefully, the nice version of summer will return soon!

Flash crash bang wallop! For the past hour or so. Some torrential rain, too. Towers had been building since mid-morning and they delivered. Max of 21.7C.

13.2 has now been confirmed in all the tables so I guess they rounded down, must have been like 13.249 or something.
This is the first time May has had consecutive similar CET values (2017, 2018) since 2003-04 both hit 12.1. Before that, it was 1924-25 hitting 11.6. And before that 1846-47 were both 12.3. Then it's all the way back to 1717-18 for twin 11.0, before that more frequent as most of the values are multiples of 0.5 in the Maunder period.
Excellent - many thanks as ever to everyone who makes this competition happen and good fun and interesting, too. Just hope I'm as accurate with June's prediction (flaming about covers it)!

Non-event. One distant rumble, a few drops of rain and that was that. Nothing registered on the rain gauge, so that's now day 20 of no measurable rainfall. Sun is back out splitting the evening skies and it's 22C at almost 8pm. Braw!

Day 19 of the dry spell here. Looking at that chart, somehow don't think we'll be making it to 20 days in a row.
This morning: low cloud + mist/general murk. Humid. Currently 15.5C.
Yesterday was the warmest day of the year so far, with a max of 24.5C.
Bring on the storms!

Mist and low cloud took a while to burn aff today, but we managed sunshine and a max of 20.3C this arvo. Signs of a more unsettled (thundery?) blip as the week progresses, but the jet is still waaaaay up north, so reasonable optimism that the predominantly settled stuff will return over the weekend.
Needless to say, after seventeen days without any rainfall, the Earn is looking rather low. Lang may it continue!
