Hi TRL 23c here atm. Just right IMO as I wouldn't want it much hotter than that to be honest.

Have you got the storm magnet charged ready for this afternoon? :o

your never happy Magpie! hehe :o

28c in Cambridge recorded just before noon!

Well, I must say I rather enjoyed the summer up til now. I used to quite like this weather but I think after last year I've had enough sun and heat to last a life time. Looking forward to the lovely autumnn and winter now.

Me too! I would love a proper autumn ... but I won't begrudge a warm August except that Mrs WIB at 35 weeks is not a happy bunny today!

28.5C at noon at Charlwood. Just a question of 'when' not 'if' now. We might well see a 31C from this.

Do I have reason to be twitchy about my bet on betfair that 91F (32.8C) wouldn't be breached this summer?

Edit: I mean in the context of today, not asking for a 4 week forecast :o

There was quite a large variation of temperature last night over a small area.

For example it was 18.7c at The Weather Centre in London yet many places away from the city recorded sub 15.0c. Suppose just shows how large that Heat Island Effect is?

Ii wasn't that warm here last night. Dropped to 13.4c which is only 0.4c above the average August night.

Well I have lost the sunshine now and it is starting to cloud over....Looks like I'm

going to max at 23C for today.

Bye Bye summer.

No I think you're safe ... probably! Might just see a 31C I guess.

29.2C at 13h00 so 30C should go between now and 14.30 I'd imagine.

We had some late running highs yesterday so we might get some more of those and have one or two high mark surprises when the Met Office complete the data late in the day.

Got to admit it's absolutely gorgeous here today. Can't begrudge it ... plastering done. Now for the lawn!

Yes although I'm not a 'mildie' I am certainly jealous of your sunshine this weekend and wouldn't even mind a couple of hot days either! Heavy rain and 13C here!

Done it. Absolutely knackered now Brian. Hmmm ... think you're right. Feet up time.

Haven't hit the alleged-magic 30C just yet, but think it's coming shortly!

Great stuff :o

I couldn't cope with those sort of temps to be honest. I'm far too hot already and my temps

are nothing like what you are seeing.

By the way Congratulations on reaching 6000 posts :o

[kerensa]

hi its hit 29c here so nearly :o

[Mammatus]

Well it's 30.2C here currently in southwest suffolk, south east Cambridgeshire border. Far too warm to enjoy doing anything, although I must not complain after the summer so far. It's sweltering outside. :o

Currently 25.4C here with a brisk and blustery wind. We wont make anything past 26C here I don't think. However, it is the warmest day of the year apparently. Still, I am not finding it uncomfortable at all and really am enjoying it. In fact, I could do with it being 5C hotter.

[Optimus Prime]

....to think in the worse summer of the 20th Century (going by maxima temperature) 1962 even then the temperature reached 27.8c so there must've been a heatwave similar to this one?

Anyway, the maximum temperature so far here is 28.1c. Now way I'm going to recieve a 30c but Cambridge may it's currently 29c.

[Costa Del Fal]

Well its about 28c here currently and there is all afternoon to go yet so a 30c is coming possibly!

Its very Hot outside.

[Optimus Prime]

29.4c at the London weather centre...

[West is Best]

29.4c at the London weather centre...

Yep, a little bit tighter than I thought an hour or so ago but we should see a 30C somewhere I think.

[Optimus Prime]

And to think almost this time in 2003 it was 40c being cheered on not 30c!

[Mammatus]

Well it's hovering around the 30 mark here, 29.8C - 30.2C in last 30 minutes.

29.2C recorded in Charlwood (southeast) @ 13:00, looking forward to 14:00/15:00 readings. 30C will be exceeded in a few places I expect from London up through Cambridge towards Kings Lynn in Norfolk (Mainly along M11 areas)
