Possible new UK all time record

[Nick L]

Up to 34.1c now, hottest day of the year looking probable, July record possible but it'll be a stretch.

No update from the Met Office, so that 34.1C could be today's maximum. No chance of any broken records now, it seems.

Nope. 

So todays highs were in between what the Beeb and Met Office were forecasting as I thought it may be.

well if yesterdays 35.1c is the top for this summer it at least reflects the amazing consistent heat we have had

There is an official station in Norwich. 

Showing 34c:

A lot of sites failing to report across central parts of east anglia at the moment, but with cambridge/norwich and wattasham reporting 34c you would think somewhere will see 35c.

As unbelievable as it sounds but observing the temperature predictions, the best model was the GFS which was pretty consistent with 34c being reached quite widely.

Was showing 37C earlier

Tibenham Airfield is about 13 miles southeast of Norwich and (assuming the site online is the official airfield station) looks to have hit 37.8C during a brief freakish rise around 4.30pm.

34.7C at Tibenham Airfield is the provisional high so far

[nic]

I'm near there (SW Norwich) and maxed out at 35.4C but it get quite windy and heat up a bit as the towering clouds came close by to the West...

[Summer Sun]

New data shows yesterday's high was 35.3C in Faversham

[Summer Sun]

Yesterday's high confirmed as 34.7C at Tibenham Airfield 

Thursday was the peak of the heatwave with 35.3C in Faversham
