Anybody notice the lack of activity today on the UK radar, is it broke?

20°C - blue sky.

I've just put up some new RGBIC festoon lights outside. WiFi controlled, with endless functions! £20 off voucher from Amazon at the moment. Govee lights are quite pricey, so it's a good deal.

You can link two sets. I bought two in separate purchases so I could get £20 off twice.

Cloudy earlier in the day but the sun came out this afternoon and it felt warm, especially later on when the breeze dropped a bit. Reached 19.5°C

[Dorsetbred]

A nice warm afternoon with the peak of 20.3°C at: 16:49.

Morning All, a little hazy this morning after the overnight low of 7.8°C at: 01:06 has risen to 16.7°C, RH76% and alight 8mph NNW breeze.

From Above with clear patches, but the dying front looks to make the afternoon cloudy.

Meanwhile people enjoying the warm sunshine down on the Golden sands, whilst looking hazy out in the channel

Pipped you by 0.08°C with 21.2°C at: 13:22..

Skin has tingling sensation, somewhat similar to a touch of sunburn, after a few hours out in the sun, and no I don't use suntan lotion, but hey I'm old, I'm gonna die sooner than a fair number of you, so....

Still to reach 20c this year, however today was the warmest day since 29th October! Plenty of hazy sunshine after a foggy start.

Also a sign of higher pressure is fronts weakening as they have this afternoon. Looking forward to a pleasant if not that warm week.

Not an awful day today here with sunny spells at lunchtime after a misty start but there was a cool wind funnelling down the Severn valley which took much of the warmth out of the day. Still, managed the first bbq of the season.

[Mapantz]

20.2°C again today. Same as May 1st and yesterday. 

[matt111]

Brighter earlier in the day but cloudy for the most part and only reached 15.2°C. 

[artzeman]

Cloudy. Breezy. 11.1c. Humidity 66% Rh.

[Mapantz]

3.2mm of rain overnight.

Currently sunny and 14.2°C.
