I'm not sure how the site stands with showing this clip of current temepratures from the Met O-WOW site-if its not allwed please delete admin/mods and accept my apologies.

I post it to show how variable our temperatures are when looked at in relation to the bigger picture.

I have e mailed UK Met seeking their advice

[Summer Sun]

What a stunning day, not a cloud in the sky 16.5°C and rising

[Andy Bown]

13.6c and virtually clear blue sky/sunshine after fog/low cloud cleared at around 11.00.

[Zenarcher]

Cloudy with mist and some drizzle around as well, the sun is trying to make a appearance but don't think it will. Temp 10c wind 16mph.

[Kent Snow]

13.2C, few cumulus, sunny, wind from the NW, 1036hPa.

[HighPressure]

Fantatic day on the north downs not a cloud in the sky and sitting in my conservatory the temp is about 80c

mid teens outside, no wind and pretty much the perfect day.

[GreyCrag]

just about scraping above 10'c north of Buxton at 4pm. However despite the low temperature i'm currently sat in a t-shirt & shades as the energy of the sun's rays leak through the double glazing. On a contrast 2 years ago here we was under 3cm of snow and something like a -5'c windchill.

[johnholmes]
