The house has undergone quite an unprecedented warming trend over the past week.
We are now peaking in the early evenings at around 20.7c to 21.7c. This mornings lows of 19.7c to 20.3c were simply remarkable.
I'm typing away in the bedroom at the moment in shorts and t shirt with a temperature of 21.7c with a RH of 71%.
No surprises really, todays outside max temperature was 19.7c.
This weeks outside maxima since Saturday have been as follows 18.7,18.1,19.1,19.8,17.7 and 18.5.
Minima have been equally impressive 9.9,10.7,11.3,10.3,13.6,11.1 and 11.3c

Just been to the cinema. When we came out at 10:00 pm, it was 17°. It actually felt mild. Incredible. Indoors at home it's currently 21.2°. T-shirt and shorts... Even the better half commented she felt warm. No heating still.

Bexleyheath, Kent.
17C downstairs and 20C up, much as the past few days. The heating, set to 16.5C, came on in the early hours yesterday morning but hasn't been on since.
The temperature (downstairs) in my house has varied from 15C to 17.5C over the past week, the outside temperatures in the same format as yours have been:
Max: 17.4,19.0,17.2,16.2,18.8,19.4
Min: 8.6, 15.9 (!), 6.4, 13.6, 14.1, 9.5, 14.8 (so far)
Sunshine through the windows. 22.5c in the lounge. Thermostat turned down a degree.
Some people walk in the rain.
Others just get wet.

Didn't bother with the heating this morning as 17.6c inside. Yet to spend more than £2 on any day on gas (hot water and central heating and that is before the Government discount for next 6 months) so far this autumn which I see as a great success.

Snowfall Winter 24/25: 18/11 5cm, 23/11 9cm, 22/12: dusting, 5/1 16cm, 6/1 6cm top-up , 7/1 1cm top-up.
I've had the fire going a few times so far this autumn - borderline as to whether I've needed to although a few mornings have been a bit chilly indoors when working from home.
Currently though it's too warm in the house - not really dropping less than 20c and topping out at 21-22c, which are window opening temps.
Good for the heating bills I guess but would have been nice to have had some crisp chilly mornings.
Work: Tonbridge
19.9 C - still no use of gas. Hot water just warm enough for a strip wash but not washing up - need some sunshine today for the solar hot water

22.3 yesterday pm, 19.9 this morning. Brief use of gas to top up hot water for washing etc.
It was 20c outside yesterday afternoon with unbroken sunshine for 90 minutes in a calm period of weather before the 5pm storm.
As a result I was able to open the back door to let some warmth in ! Madness for late October.
We achieved downstairs highs of 21.3c to 21.7c as a result with a brief high of 23.1c in the bedroom.
A wild and windy night with temps circa 15-16c did little to reduce the internal warmth.
This morning we have 19.7c to 20.3c downstairs and 21.7c in the bedroom.
The humidity needs to be kept in check. 74-77% generally.
Steady 21.5c This Morning

22.3c in the lounge with sunshine through the windows. Heaters luke warm.
16.3 outside, 16.5 downstairs and 21.6 upstairs.
The heating is presently set to 16 and thanks to the high dewpoints outside of late, the dewpoint downstairs is 13C (79% RH) and 13C upstairs too (59% RH). Outside the dewpoint is 12C (77% RH).
It'd be nice to get dewpoints both inside and out in single figures... but without running the heating for a long time, or using the a/c in dehumidify mode, that's not going to happen. And the GFS has double-figure dewpoints here for the next week and a bit!
20.5c is the room temperature.
22.6 yesterday, 20.2 this morning, no heating on. This is getting ridiculous but just what is needed in view of gas prices.
Yes DEW and long may it continue.
No heating required since that 12 hour drying boost 10 days ago.
This morning we have 18.7c dining room, 18.9c hallway, 19.2c lounge and 21.0c in the bedroom.
Yesterdays internal highs were around 20-21c again.
22.c. No heating switched on.
16.0 when I got in, the heating (set to 16.5) came on soon after. I think the cooler night than of late allowed a bit more of the heat to leech out than over the past few days.
It's 20 upstairs.
22.7 C late afternoon yesterday, 20.2 this morning after a mild night; 16.0 C outside which is quite remarkable in itself.
This morning in the living room it's 19.2c & upstairs is roughly 22c.
Still not had to put the heating on, which although unusual, I'm not that unhappy about it.

It’s the end of the world as we know it (and I feel fine) - R.E.M.
19.3c Hallway, 19.1c dining room, 19.7c lounge and 21.0c bedroom (we even opened the window last night as it was a bit stuffy).
Humidity closing in on 75%.
It would be great if the upcoming very warm spell is associated with some sub 60% humidity. I doubt it though very much considering the sub tropical origin of the airmass.
22.6 C yesterday late pm down to 20.2 this morning
Half an hour boost on hot water using gas boiler to supplement solar hot water which is getting less effective at low sun angles
