  1. Nice to see you broke a record! My station record dating back to 2011 is 21.8°C. Reached 21.7°C earlier but now it's dropped back! So close!
  2. 31.4°C and climbing. Had a 30 second shower as those altocumulus clouds passed over. This stalled my steady rise but now back on up.
  3. Currently on track for the warmest day ever recorded at my station, if the cloud stays away. Currently 29.9°C Edit: just seen the satellite and radar. I may now struggle as come convective clouds are surging north over the Channel!
  4. A high of 27.7°C today, feeling less oppressive than yesterday now. Currently 26.6°C
  5. Beautiful stormy evening last night. Storms arrived at around 11.30pm and lasted to around 2am. From the radar, I counted 3 separate cells that formed one behind the other to give near continuous lightning throughout! Only 1mm of rain fell last night, given the elevated nature of these storms last night. Low last night was 17.8C but was still 25C at midnight last night, was a long time since I've seen that here. Currently sunny with a light Southerly breeze, 27.2C. Humidity has dropped slightly since yesterday, sat at 59%.
  6. We've had at least an hour of thunder and lightning now. They are back building everytime one passes!
  7. High today was 33.4C, making it 0.2c warmer than June's high! Local Met Office site reporting 31C and that's right on the coast. Good accuracy here! Currently 32.4C and feeling increasingly oppressive.
  8. Lucy sent me over an update, so now I have my moisture sensor and air quality monitor uploading to ecowitt.net! Cannot fault the customer service.
  9. Hot. 30.9C currently. Feels like 31.4c! 32 to beat for the warmest this year!
  10. Sounds like its an issue with the console radio signal?
  11. My anemometer is around 50ft away from the house, with the temperature sensor, rain gauge and air quality monitors at about 20ft away. I've had full signal at all times (except when I had issues with the anemometer, however a update fixed that).
  12. I have the HP2551 console. The Air quality and moisture sensors are visible on the console, but cannot seem to get those to upload to ecowitt.net. Guessing I'm not doing it right? Haha All other data uploads perfectly
  13. Oh this is interesting! I need to figure out how to show the data on ecowitt.net now! Edit: Currently in contact with Lucy to figure this out, as I've just ordered the GW1000 this morning through herself to achieve the upload!
  14. Yeah I should email as well to be honest, but I cannot see a way for the data to be sent onto Ecowitt.net. But yes, live data is available on the sensor, but as Mapantz pointed out there's nothing for historical data and/or charts.
  15. Correct my if I'm wrong, but for upload to Ecowitt.net I think you need the GW1000 with the extra sensors. I currently have the moisture and air quality sensors, they show up on the console but not online. Hope that helps! This is strange Mapantz, I had the same issues, but was limited to my anemometer. Lucy sent through an update to my console, which fixed the issue. Seems like yours could be a faulty unit? Interesting to hear the rumours of a new unit?
  16. Not a bad day today, little cloudy at times but still very warm. High was 23.2°C with light SW'ly winds. Currently 22.1°C.
  17. Had some early rain this morning, around 1.8mm fell, breaking the 16 day dry spell. Currently 22.7°C with party sunny skies.
  18. Update: Today I finally got around to adding a fan to my radiation shield. The temperatures were not too far off a local Met Office site, however during the peak sunshine hours of the day, the temperature can really shoot up. So a fan was needed to assist with airflow within the shield. I popped my designing head on and decided to fit a PC fan that was powered via solar. Not only to ease with access to the mains, but to provide a little more energy conservancy (even though the consumption would of been minimal!) I bought a Solar powered pond pump off Amazon for around £7, with the intentions to use the solar power for the fan (45p from eBay) during peak sunlight. The output of the solar panel is 7v, meaning the fan has plenty of speed for purpose. Have been testing it this afternoon and the results have been instant, temperatures have been around 1-1.5°C lower than before, which made me realise how important this feature really is! Today was a partly cloudy day, however the fan was constantly running, and finally powered down around 6.30pm this evening as the sun turned to the west. This is one of my favourite editions thus far and relatively cheap!
  19. Temperature rising to 25.9°C here currently, warmest Its been all day!
  20. Partly sunny today, but still very pleasant. High today has so far been 29°C... but that was in the garage whilst I was fitting a fan to my radiation shield Currently 24.1°C, which so far is the real high today!
  21. Another beautiful start to the day, sunshine from the get go. Currently 26°C and Sunny.
  22. Lovely few days of weather here, even with the cloud at times, its been feeling very summer like. Maximum temperature yesterday was 25.3°C. Partly sunny today with some high level cloud coming and going. Currently 25.1°C, winds like from the SW.
  23. More rain arrived during lunchtime, according to the radar it just keeps forming over Portsmouth and heading SE. 2.4mm so far today. Currently 16.6°C.
  24. Well was expecting the rain band to have shifted out into the channel by dawn this morning, but clearly models did not handle this well. Actually got 1.2mm overnight, ending the 11 day dry spell. Currently 17.0°C, should brighten up soon according to the satellite!
