A spookily warm Halloween for the UK today

 

14.6c already here in Darlington if the cloud does thin and break as expected we could hit 20c later which is remarkable for the time of year

[A.J]

20.4c in a humid & occasionally gusty southerly wind with clear skies

[reef]

Currently clear and sunny with a temperature of 18.9C. Its rather humid aswell with a dewpoint of 16.1C.

 

It feels more like summer than almost November.

[ItNeverSnowsInWindsor]

It's currently 20.1C in Windsor in sunshine and a strongish breeze.

 

We just need a record breaking Winter day now!

[Hocus Pocus]

Currently 18.0c  and murky skies, very unlikely any records will be broken around here today.

[Man With Beard]

Currently 23C in London I see. If it had been tomorrow, it would have smashed the November temperature record of 21.6C. Remarkable. What a shock is coming in the next couple of weeks, a frost will feel like Siberia!

Warmest UK Halloween on record

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-29851285

So 24C in Gravesend. That's obscene!!! The daily record beaten by 4C, that is also outrageous! If it had happened tomorrow, it would have been a November record never to be broken again. Good grief, all my memories of bonfire nights as a child were fog and frost!

[stevofunnelcl]

I did see some people wearing winter coats today, with my area getting up to 21c

I was in t-shirt and shorts, and i was still sweating. Feels like i've been sweating since April

The sun sure doesn't have the kind of power it had in June / July
