Higher than forecast?  

[knocker]

Fine morning with finally less cloud with about three oktas of Ac to the east

[Dorsetbred]

Morning All, some early warming today, already at 14.7°C with the early morning arrivals on the beach..

Sunny Sunday.17.5c Humidity65%rh

Beautiful start. As long as that high cloud to the south doesn’t invade it should be a cracking day!

[Mapantz]

Yep. Cloud moved in here. Currently 17.3°C.

[Dorsetbred]

Satellite image suggests the current cloud will move away westwards, and there is a fair bit offshore as the images shows..and the light breeze in from the E now having moved from the SE..

With the patchy cloud showing on the webcam, meanwhile it sunbathing for the folks making their most of the fine sunshine..

Clear blue skies forecast yday eve for today for here. Cloud spilling in now.

[CheesepuffScott]

Sunny skies but a fair bit of high cloud about now. 17.3°C

[Dorsetbred]

The stripe of cloud (albeit reasonably high) seems to want to hang around... from the latest satellite shot

Meanwhile on the coast and over the channel clear skies prevail

[Andy Bown]

The aforementioned and aforemoaned high cloud is a mixture of Cirrus and Altocumulus which is beautiful to look at and not in any way detracting from a stunning day!

Seriously it is a gazillion times better than the last god knows how many Sundays!

[Andy Bown]

There is also a perfect solar halo.

Christ what does one have to do to get a sunny day round here! Completely milky sky now... such a disappointment.

Sympathies mate! That was us yesterday. It's so painful isn't it! Meanwhile does the south barely scrap the low 20's when the rest of the country is in mid 20's?! We are normally nice and hot here!

So frustrating. Didn’t mind it yesterday as it was supposed to be cloudy, not today though.

[knocker]

Just a touch of Ac Cas here

[CheesepuffScott]

Milky sunshine this afternoon.. not the clear blue I had anticipated. Temp has been straddling around the 20°C≈ mark, whilst it’s 23°C/24°C on official obs half way up the country!

[Dorsetbred]

No complaints milky skies but still very please gardening weather...with a maximum of 18.8°C at: 15:35

HOW are they getting higher temps than us?

[knocker]

Fine morning with some Ci, mainly from the spreading of contrails

[Dorsetbred]

The early-birds catching the sun..

Currently clear skies and warming nicely...11.8°C

[MP-R]

Clear sky to start. Now let’s keep it that way!

[Bobd29]

Been up for an hour, still grey and murky. Sun needs to get its blowtorch out not a hint of blue yet, hoping for a decent spell late morning onwards though.
