24.1°C at the moment. This spell of weather isn't likely to bring the warmest day of the year here, maybe next week?

Got up to 22.6°C this morning which is the first time this week it’s reached 20°C here. Now as usual the breeze has increased and it’s dropped to 18.3°C.

22C and beautiful. Did hear some rain in the early hours but it only amounted to 0.4mm in the rain gauge.

Interesting stat. The lowest I’ve recorded on this date was in 2008, one of the warmest Mays. The highest I’ve recorded on this date was in 2010, one of the coldest Mays.

26.3c here now.

WSW wind here is 6mph.

[Mapantz]

Scrap my last post.. temp shot up and has reached 25°C.

Today’s cloud shapes as named by my boy.

Castle with windows at 6.30 this morning. Ray with a long tail a few minutes ago.

Same as here, peaked at 26.6 at 3:56pm. There is some walled garden effect as my 'north wall' check thermometer shows 25.0, the truth probably somewhere in between. Warmer than yesterday, warmest of the year so far.

27.3°C at: 15:34 but has since dropped back as the high veil of cloud creeps in..

[CheesepuffScott]

Wasn't expecting today to be that much warmer.. a peak of 27.0°C at: 14:52...

Sunshine has turned hazy with a layer of cloud, but still warm at 25.6°C

[matt111]

Quite a sudden temperature drop not long ago as a bit more cloud appeared. Was 10°C not long ago but now only 16.4°C

[CheesepuffScott]

Overcast. 22.0°C RH 54%

[Frosty hollows]

27c here again! Beautiful evening!

[CheesepuffScott]

Just dipped below 20°C, breeze is picking up too which is rather welcome.

South Today forecast has a thin area of rain passing over the region in the morning, in what looks like a mild night in the low-mid teens, but I doubt it'll amount to much.

Even now it looks to be thin and weakening....

Blue skies all day until early this evening when it clouded over. Reached 22.6°C, currently 14.2°C

[Dorsetbred]

Currently 15.2°C under partly cloudy skies...and the finger of rain is ever shrinking..

[CheesepuffScott]

14.6°C RH 72%

[Mapantz]

25.7°C was the max here. Feeling a little fresher indoors with the windows wide open. Temp 15.4°C.

[matt111]

The temperatures actually risen slightly here over the last hour back up to 14.6°C

Still 18c here. Sweaty night ahoy!

[CheesepuffScott]

Temperature still falling but fairly slowly, 14.2°C

[matt111]

Still rising here. Up to 15.1°C. Doesn't look like I'll even get any measurable rain at all now with how it's breaking up on approach.

Rising here now too. 14.4°C
