BBC going with 28c at Heathrow could we beat last month's 29c? Probably a stretch too far if only it was a southerly or swly then here in Gravesend would no doubt be close to the hottest place maybe a 30c

cooling down next week with westerlies

Standard... this is the UK, no warm dry, wall to wall sunshine is never prolonged. But to have 3/4 days of it in early May is something to cherish. 

Of out in Camden today today meeting friends to enjoy the heat and sun. Have a good bank holiday everyone.

Yes a lovely still, warm evening. 

Only downside are the Magpies and Jays trying to trash the nests of the little birds. Having spent some time encouraging the little birds rather annoying  

Where is my rifle I ponder?  Well not on a nice evening like today. But tomorrow is another day.

Yes bloody Magpies real bullies, last year trying to get in a hole in the guttering to eat baby sparrows.
this year fighting with crows seagulls anything.

Yes need a magpie destroyer for sure and they are so bloody noisey.

Has anyone else noticed that this is more like the days when I was much younger.
What I am telling everyone, gin clear skies, cool early and late with easterly sea breeze.
20c on coasts much hotter inland.
Lets hope for  a more traditional summer than those crappy south westerly dominated humid summers over the last 10 years or so.

My first day of duty as a member of the volunteer team of 6 who now run Hastings Borough Councils official weather observations, reporting to the Met Office ( on the WOW website ** ), the local press ( Hastings Observer) and the general public ( Kiosk on the seafront ).

I couldn't have picked a better day to start my week long shift. Wall to wall sunshine and currently around 24c here. The town is absolutely heaving. Jack in the Green fesitivities in full swing and over 10,000 bikers here for the 1066 May Day Bike Run.

** My first ever report here:

Currently 28.4 C in my back garden at Watford - wall to wall blue sky with a strange yellow thing in the sky - just wonder what the weather gods will bring for the summer - maybe if we are lucky we may just about reach 35 C if we keep getting these highs bringing in south easterlies. 

Any bets?   :) 

Whilst at Capestang in Southern France it is 22 C with a yellow warning for thunderstorms and floods.
