Folks. Worth mentioning. The wildlife is really struggling.
if you get a minute, put some water out in the front and back gardens. I managed to attract about 200 honey bees yesterday to come for a drink. It was a remarkable sight.
And it isn’t slowing. It’s pushing through these temperature gradients like it’s nothing. It’s more akin from being 15C and cloudy to 20C and sunny once the cloud has cleared!
Even Anglesey and Caernarfon are reporting much higher than you, with 30C and 33C, respectively!
Can see the blue sky clearance. Here it comes. The UK temp record (old one) will be broken IMBY today!
Met Office has us dropping 6C between midday and 3pm.
Regardless of what high resolution models are showing, I can’t see tomorrow being hotter than today here.
We had a 30 min period of cloud. It hindered the temp. It fell a bit. 33.7C. Doubt it’ll rise anymore. 3C cooler than forecast.
Then again. Even Liverpool airport is at 35C. Maybe my station is underreporting
And so is the weather obs
Bit of a ‘downgrade’ for tomorrow now. Hot air being swept away much sooner with the emphasis on east of the Pennines for the highest temps. Still make it to 36-38 here though. 40 out of reach now.
Observation: it’s currently 999C, the mod thread is going mad as tomorrow has downgraded to 1000C toys are flying out of the pram
Knocking on the 34C door now. Lots of cumulus popping up. Going to hinder the rise somewhat.
