So glad that the record was broken so that July now holds it. August these days is a poor excuse for a summer month, and the models look like (although they could change) delivering our 17th consecutive poor / average one.

What a truly vile day. You don’t get much worse than this.

Not sure yet. There has been all this discussion about a potential 38.4 at Brogdale too!

38.7C at Cambridge Botanical Gardens. Apparently.

Warmest night for many a year. I seem to recall a couple like this in August 1997.

That’s the flashing I can see to my east!

Post on the other side quoting Brogdale 38.4C.

Sorry I meant the all time record. The July record was never in doubt today.

Because the weather gods always find a way to scupper things.

Too much cloud coming up from France now. Record safe, certainly at Heathrow. Unless the cloud dissipates.

That’s not from the official station though.

Roasting on the top deck of a Boris bus at the moment. There’s more hot air up here than even he can produce!

What’s your gut feeling Steve?

Not often you come out of a tube station and it’s hotter outside!

If we are pushing for the record, we really need: Little or no cloud before 3-4 pm. Around 35C at midday or just after.
