Hopefully (and I'm praying and apologise to all those who love it) but I really don't want it in or near Bracknell (WUSS ALERT)

What are people’s views of the Met Office’s  WOW website? 

 

Someone has submitted a 42.1c for St Ives this afternoon and another submission of 38.9 for Kingsway, Duxford.... the heat was definitely just to the west of Cambridge between the A505 and the A14 across to the A1.

It depends if where the temperatures and how they were recorded the Met Office.  I only record temperatures taken in the shade.

I'll be amazed if it's not further north than that by then.

They're probably not the most accurate type of station.  Apparently, those without a fan to keep the shaded air moving read high.

It is more bearable now than earlier on in the afternoon.  The temperature at 5:36pm is 30.6 Celsius.

Just drove from Canary Wharf to Kent (medway) along A2 and M2. Was 37oC the whole way except by the river when it was 36oC.

Real shame that the pesky cloud cover came in. Certainly without that the record would have gone .

It’s worth looking at the 15 min intervals for Cambridge between 15:00 and 16:30.... I suspect the 38.1c will be raised if the Met Office dig deeper on the weather station.

Wouldn't be at all surprised, and, given that it was only 0.4C off the all-time value, it's still possible that it might be a new record.

Little gutted we haven't so far seen a clear 39C. So close it may seem.

Rumbles of Thunder and rain in Hailsham, E Sussex.

Been in the office all today but pretty cloudy from early afternoon onwards so I'm guessing that kept temps a bit lower than they might have been.

Looks like I'm in a direct firing line for that storm over the Channel. I can imagine that as it hits land its going to blow.

Just making landfall in Eastbourne.

Are there any met office stations in the sandy/biggleswade area...or east  towards Cambridge/Bishop Stortford ... seems strangely bereft...yet PWS reporting temps above 39 ..but PWS is PWS sadly hehe ... 

Any of them like this...might be more trustworthy!

For some reason, I seem to recall Camborne (Cambs) as one site the met office are happy with but I could be wrong.
