37.1C at Heathrow at 2:30pm. We just might do it.

Very close to that 100F. With higher 850s continuing to progress northwards, I'd expect at least 2 or even 3 hours of heating left to go.

[Summer18]

36.1C by far the highest I’ve recorded since 2017 in north Leeds dew point is showing -1.7C. Feels like the Med!

Lots of 35/36c and odd 37c popping up on wunderground website in Yorkshire could be the place to break the record today…

Yorkshire is looking like the sweet (or sweat) point tomorrow 

[SunnyPlease]

Really does feel like the Med!. It’s a very nice heat despite being high. 
 

Beautiful stuff

...what?  Offended by maps, this country really has lost it.

It was all over Twitter in the past few days.  The AGW "sceptics" are convinced it's a conspiracy.

East Anglia looks to me to be the region to watch, clearest skies for longest and a big overland fetch to the wind.

Hawarden a possible exception due to the foehn effect, could yet see todays highest temp.

Our local area stalled for a while around 34.6C but is now at 35.5.

Indeed i got back from Rome yesterday and it feels identical. 

[Frosty hollows]

36 in Benson. I'm told our record has gone tho I thought it was 37

[chrisbell-nottheweatherman]

Norwich rounded-up to 36C.

[SunnyPlease]

With 2 hours warming or so to go, this has to be higher than 2003, and should get very very close to the record. 
 

It’s 100% hello 40c tomorrow with this sort of pre warming 

[Snowman.]

35c here in Southend, not a single cloud or even high cloud in the sky. Beautiful day. 

[kold weather]

37.1c put us at joint 4th along with Aug 1990.

Highly likely to reach 100f now as well, possibly in multiple locations.

[Methuselah]

Norwich at 36C at 2pm -- lots of new (local) records surely will be set this arvo!

[reef]

34.1C here, so there goes our August 1990 record of 34.0C that has stood 32 years!

We've obliterated the existing July record by 2.4C today!

[kold weather]

Local record of 35.5c has now gone . New local record is 35.8c, and still time to get upto 36c I reckon.

[Snow Dayz]

35.1c here now dropped back from 36c an hour ago!

Heathrow now down to 36.2C, if the record is going it will be elsewhere!

[matty40s]

It's due to colour blindness, old maps don't work so well according to the met office.

I see a new Welsh record.

Also 36.5c puts us into the top 10 hottest days ever.

You learn something every day but most people wouldn t know that...

By the coast at aberyswyth just beating 1990..

Who of thought that by the sea..

[Snow Dayz]

It may be tomorrow for the national record now!

Feel Cambridge will be the last man standing with the cloud moving into London area.
