[ARW WeatherMan]

Was hot and mostly sunny all day with just a few wispy high clouds here and there.

Top temp I measured here in Hertfordshire was 31.2oC.

The "low" last night ( if you can call it that) was 19.8oC! Possibly the highest night temp I have recorded going back about 10 years! 

Currently still very warm and clear at 22.1oC.

Will be interesting to see what I record tomorrow
