A quite impressive 18.3*C here which is 1.7*C above the LTA.
Based on model numbers for tomorrow it could reach between 18.7 and 19.0*C and then between 18.8*C and 19.1*C after 7th before it starts to ease down at the weekend.
Yet this will still be short of the monthly means for July 2013 (19.2*C) and July 2006 (19.7*C), which goes to show just how impressive those months were in these parts. Unless the models are some way off the mark with the middle part of next week, or an exceptionally hot spell occurs for a large part of the second half of the month, it will be hard for 2017 to challenge those numbers. This year has had a tendency to do the unexpected, though...!
FWIW, the hottest August in my records (2000-2016), which is the famous one of 2003, sits nicely in between those hottest two Julys with 19.4*C.
