Some showers breaking out soon maybe? Lots of lightning going to waste out at sea currently!

Quite a lot of clouds bubbling up now and I wouldn't be surprised if some develop into showers.

Warm here in the inland NE. Widely 24C late morning and early afternoon as we drove to Inverurie and back for the bi-weekly 'bug' food shop. A cooling breeze has developed now but still sheltering in the North facing conservatory with the windows open until it cools a little.

You would assume that unless the cloud becomes an issue that it'll break 30C, maybe 31C? The airport is reporting a SEly breeze so as long as that stays on land then why not? 

I am not sure if that's rare for Prestwick but I would assume it is...

Yep, it's up to 29.8c now on that traffic scotland station, although not official it'll still be a decent weather station I would imagine. It's also up to 29.4c on the M77 near Newton Mearns (my closest station) and rising faster since the breeze has died down.

Cloud building across the south-west now as can be seen on the satellite loop so the temps probably won't get much higher. You can see the storms to the North-West too!

Don't see that too often.

With the wind it really doesn't feel that warm.

Given how close Prestwick is to the sea 30c is quite remarkable - and it's not the first time it's happened. I wonder if there's a micro climate there that contributes to higher temperatures or perhaps it's just down to a favourable wind direction.

31c here now...the Glasgow temperature will be reported much lower as Glasgow AP is a bit cooler. At least somewhere official has reached 30c

I am inland a bit from the Ayrshire coast but it really is feeling exceptionally hot. No sea breeze here.

I've put an old mercury thermometer in the shade and it's at 29c. 

The patio doors have expanded to the point they barely fit the frame. Don't get that very often.

Hot and sweaty! Just the way I like Summer to be!  Currently 27C.
Sheep below have the right idea! 

Starting to bubble up...

Met Office brings an isolated thunderstorm close in the next few hours:

Hopefully some of the above happens! 

Would rather have been somewhere else today...

I am off to enjoy some more sunshine/heat and hopefully thunderstorms kick off for many of us later!

All the best everyone!

Within 5 minutes a cloud has built up pretty well becoming darker too with other towering cumulus building surrounding it. Need to see if this builds a bit more as it heads northwards over Glasgow and beyond

A heavy shower has formed over Glasgow, looks like its from the base that was building as it passed over here...

 

Pic is another tower heading towards Glasgow.
