Have to say that keeping the amber warning for heat in place for today was a complete joke when it was clear two days ago that it was not going to be that hot. Predictably the Met are getting a lot of stick for it on social media from those under the rain.

Less than 500m from the end of London City Airport runway.
Here in soggy South Wales the ground is fairly sodden - I have some puddles still in the back garden and yet today we reached 31c despite it being breezy and cloudy pretty much all day. It was also wet underfoot in the May spell and we hit over 32c then too.
These temperatures may not be remarkable for other parts of the UK but they are in this part of the world. The May spell had a temp that was in Cardiff's all time hottest top 5 days.
On a different note it also rained here briefly today and felt just like being in a Tropical Rainforest - stonkingly hot, humid and uncomfortable.

Will be very interesting tmrw anything from 33c to 38c possible.

Still dull and back to the unsettled cool cloudy spell type this evening.
Report of rain chucking down at Heathrow from one of the poster so likely game over now for any records for the SE.

Look at the wind direction and try to understand why eg Cheltenham was the form horse on 3.8.90
