Yesterday we reached 17.2c after 0.8c minimum. This morning it has snuck a point lower to 0.7c but I wonder if we can sneak a little higher later.

16°C here about half an hour ago from a start of 2.1°C.  Breezier than yesterday and actually feeling fresher in spite of a slightly higher temperature.

[Bazray]

Sat in the garden in t shirt in February, that doesn’t happen very often. Welcome surprise.

[CheesepuffScott]

Another very spring-like day and warm in the sun too. A high of 16.6°C earlier, currently 15.5°C

So beautiful today. Maxed out at 19.1c! Blossom buds have appeared and one of the bushes already has leaves growing on it!

[matt111]

Another sub-zero temp this morning, -0.8°C. Blue skies all day and a max temp of 14.3°C.

Over 100 hours of sunshine this month, quite a bit above average.

[CheesepuffScott]

Can't say I'm looking forward to Atlantic returning, quite adjusted to this nice weather now, oh well it was bound to happen! 

Currently 8.1°C

[Stargazer]

Today was by far the warmest February day on record here in Reading. Maximum 20.0 in my garden (just made it! 19.6 at the university, the nearest official station) This was after a cold start with a ground frost (minimum 0.4), so also an exceptional diurnal variation.

[Lyn-M]

[Stargazer]

Not quite as warm as yesterday but still exceptional - it'll be a shock when normal service resumes. Sunny all day, maximum 18.4.

[Mapantz]

A perfect example of the blue skies here over the past 4 days.
