Record Temperatures?

[johnholmes]

hi

I just wondered if anyone managed to break any temperatures records!

For me I got 32.0C, backed up by second thermometer in even more sheltered area of the garden. The only other temperatures of over 31C I've recorded are:-

31.7C on 19 June 2000

31.3C on 11 August 1997

31.2C on 2 August 1999

so the highest for me in 8 years recording for June.

The highest ever recorded in June in this area is 32,8C at RAF Finningley on 3 June 1947. That year ring any bells for record heat and a scorching summer?

regards

John

I know there are not many around at the moment but could you please post your records on here, or your highest readings over the weekend with comparisons for hot spells before please?

many thanks

In reply to your post here in Newhall yesterday I hit a top temperature of 32.1c this was backed up by two thermometers. Where we are situated in Newhall we get some very strange weather readings both Temperature and pressure wise.

I think it is the fact that where I am is like being in the bottom of a horse shoe.

Surrounded by hills on three sides with an opening to the SW. Well thats my theory ans I'm sticking to it.

I will take a look at my past records to see if I have anything to beat this but I am sure is is the top June Temperature I have recorded here in Newhall

I wasnt sure whether to believe the weekends readings on saturday i recorded 27 c but the night time temps were incredible the temps were around 23 c right up to midnight and on sunday we touched 30 c for a time in the afternoon i just hope my LIDL thermometer can be trusted JOHN!!!!!!!

This is my 3rd June of recording temps.

31c yesterday is the highest of any day in these years.

2003 highest = 27c twice

2004 highest = 30c once

[paul tall]

Not too far away from Mr Karlson in Cleveland I recorded a pretty reliable maximum of 26.6ºC.

Thats my hottest June day, although I only have last year for comparison, so not much to beat.

[SP1986]

I hit 29C on Sunday at 11am before temps declined - think thats a new record early time for June and possibly July...

Yesterday's 29.5°C temperature is the highest maximum I have ever recorded in June, beating the previous 27.0°C by some margin.

[Terminal Moraine]

Maximum of 27.4c here yesterday equalled the June maximum in 1995 which in turn was the highest since 1976. It's only the 3rd June in the last 28 years to reach 26.7c (80f).

Lancaster only managed a high of 25C, the highest June reading in the area since 2000 (when the temperature reached 28.4C on the 18th)

19 June 2005 would also appear to have been Durham's warmest June day since 2000.

Looking at past reading there was nothing to equal this years temperature.

we have now settled down to boring old 26c to 28c.

Here are the readings for the past three years

2002 26.3

2003 29.1

2004 29.1.

The way things are going over the past year or so I think every weather record willhave been broken, other than a record snow fall.

Kindest Regards

Hi Mr Holmes! LTNS! My fault........

It's turning out to be a really lovely June in this neck of the woods. I'm loving it.

Just for quick info, here are my daily max temps for the month so far:

June 2005

1st 16.3C

2nd 17.1

3rd 20.1

4th 17.7

5th 18.6

6th 16.1

7th 19.4

8th 21.6

9th 21.4

10th 19.8

11th 18.6

12th 15.1

13th 17.3

14th 18.5

15th 21.4

16th 21.3

17th 24.7

18th 28.4

19th 31.1

20th 26.2

21st 22.7

22nd 26.0

Nights between the 17th and 20th were particularly close and warm with minima between 15C and 18C

Rainfall has been in very short supply, with measurable rain on 5 days only so far, with one day of measurable rain between the 6th and now and no sign of any in prospect, unless of course we are to be affected by forecast thunderstorms from tomorrow Friday onwards.

Rainfall in total for the month to date is 15.5mm

Rainfall total for 2005 to date is 209.9mm

So far, this Summer is remarkably similar to that of two years ago in 2003.

Cheers from a currently HOT 28.3C in the shade.

you have been experiencing very hot weather lately, much the same as what i have been experiencing, feels like i am on holiday waking up every morning to clear skies and warm temperatures.

[Ledbury Lad]

I like the way you've set out your stats SizzlingHeat - intersting. You've had less rain that we have even!
