Hit 31.8C here now, hottest day of the year so far here, and not even midday.

 

It was around 25C at 7am this morning according to my car temp

[SMU]

12pm here in the green belt

28.4 thats a rise of 5.2c in 2 hours.

I think we will see 32c at 12 at Heathrow.

If the cloud breaks up we still at risk of 37-38c

6 degrees in 6 hours is achievable- ideally though 36 -36.5 by 3pm is the target

29c@12   IMBG.

Don't think I will match last Friday.

But ya never know.

[Coopsy]

It feels quite different to last Friday. Nice and cool in the shade even without much breeze. Maybe the humidity is lower this week. Maybe I’m getting used to the heat

This is a strange one but today reminded me of when it snows (Bear with me! Lol) It was really quiet - no noise from the trees as so still, not much traffic (maybe everyone’s down the beach) it just felt quite muffled. Not sure if anyone can relate? (Maybe the heat has actually got to me ) 

[Sainsbo]

Met Office forecast for Reading was 27C at 12:00 - Currently it's 31.0C at the University observatory. Could push 35C.

Should note though that BBC had Reading at 30C at 12:00 and only predict a high of 34C. Interesting to see the differences in how the heat builds.

I suggest a cold wet flannel to the forehead and a long lie down

31C here at midday... equalling last Friday's max.

[Nimbusman]

Looks like we've hit the max of 30.9C today here temp just edging back down now, must be the sea breezes kicking in taking the edge off.

 

Edit: Hang on, its on its way back up again!

Temperature here in my garden(north facing and in shade ) is 33.7 as at 12.54!!!.I think we will hit 35-36 here in Locksbottom similar to last week.Shortly be painting back of shed which is in shade thank goodness.Keep drinking the h2o everyone-very very important to keep hydrated

[Froze were the Days]

29.1c here on the Riviera....0.8c to beat my hottest of the summer which should be easily achievable unless we get one of those nagging afternoon on-shore breezes arrive. 

[Methuselah]

Oh well, that's the 90f gone: 32C -- one degree up on last Friday's max...

[Mizzle]

NE Hants (Fleet) I've hit 35.5°C imby. Last Fri I recorded hit 36.7°C so maybe today that will be topped!

And. I have strawberries and ice cream for lunch. Life is good  

[Pistebasher]

33.2 West Kent atm.

[Methuselah]

33C and rising!

[Mr Brown]

35C at Heathrow. 
 

shows that comparison is really a thief of quick surface heat building. 

[Reefseeker]

Sooo hot walking around in London I got really faint and had to ask for help from lovely ladies at a juice bar on the South Bank. Stay safe chaps and chapesses

PS Does anyone have a source for humidity levels around London? 

Edited August 7, 2020 by Reefseeker

[Captain Shortwave]

With very little wind we have a proper pressure cooker over the region. 31c but climbing fast (I can see the cloud to the northwest of here).

[Stabilo19]

The heat is stiffling in N London. Much more uncomfortable than last Friday. 

[lottiekent]

High here last week was the second hottest I’ve ever recorded at 35.8c, at around 3pm. After that the wind picked up and changed direction.

Currently it is 33.1c but no wind at all.

 

Edit: 26c at my “desk” in the kitchen!
