Maxed out at 22.3 C at 2 pm during a day of hazy sunny spells and varied high cloud amounts.
Same for last night and night before last - On way back it was a a cold +9 - 12c in Exeter then in Okehampton it was a balmy 16c @ 23:00? Anyone know why? One would have thought it would be warmer in cities @ night not countryside town on edge of Dartmoor 200m asl?
Back to here and now - Some moderate isolated localised showers on and off but humid and sticky outside +17.5c @ 00:00

Where I am in S Devon the same zone produced impressive cumulus over Dartmoor but no storm AFAIK.

Currently 10.9, dew 10.0, the overnight low being 9.7. Yesterday's high was 19.9.
I'm looking forward to the return of cooler, drier air tomorrow - should be quite bracing!
It's now sunny again with a fresh feel at 9 C
Such a dry, sunny and warm Spring so far here (figures from Swanston SEPA site to my south):
RAINFALL:
March 24mm (44%)
April 25mm (48%)
SUNSHINE:
March 148hrs (128%)
April 197hrs (141%)
MEAN TEMP:
March 7.6 C (+ 2.0)
April 9.9 C (+ 2.2)
On the GFS at least, the first half of May looks dry with High Pressure. We could be on course for an unusual Spring 🤔
Edinburgh, in the frost hollow below Blackford Hill
Not for here though. A familiar sight on the radar when a breakdown tries to materialise but fails.
The dry northerly looks on track though.
Current conditions (personal WS)
Fair with partial cloud and sunny breaks, if anything today so far has turned out more brighter than I thought. However, it isn't exactly feeling that warm at 14.4 C under a light north east breeze. Still bone dry, though.

Some clouds but plenty of long sunny spells.
