Max of 36.1 ºC here today, new July record & the 2nd highest temp I have recorded since 1984. And - since getting Davis VP1 in 2004 - also lowest ever relative humidity of 18% and highest ever heat index.

(my own weather website is down as I write this )

[Terminal Moraine]

Max' of 28.3c today which is 0.2c lower than the July record.

Almost cloudless, just a little cirrus on the south western horizon.

The wind tempered the heat a little, the mean speed was 17-21 mph NE with a max' gust of 35 mph at 1555 b.s.t .

I can barely imagine what 35 or 36 must have felt like.

Not sure what the max was at my place today but according to the local BBC news forcast, the hottest place in NI today was Enniskillen at 29c, still short of the all time NI record of 30.8c.

[ngoodman]

Sky becoming very dark over hastings - expect some storm activity very soon - very little wind / cloud movement - looks like storm is developing overhead and to the south

[weather_it_will]

Thunderstorm just passed over here heading north now.

I think another storm is on the way.
