Didn't Charlwood go crazy back in 2022, 37c by 11am I think.
Already 32c in Charlwood

Retire while you can still press the 'retire now' button.
I feel E Anglia tends to be 'off the beaten track' when it comes to weather reporting.

Less than 500m from the end of London City Airport runway.
There we go - the first gust of wind from the south and it goes from 29 to 32 instantly!

Vineyard on the other hand has dropped from a peak of 32.4 to 32.1.
The MetOffice have confirmed that the June record is now 38.0C recorded on 26 June 2026.

Why so late? Other country that get a new record is immediately recorded on that day. Very hot and sunny here now 30.5C.

Until 2022 I can't say I'd experienced anything like it in the UK...
It sounds like it was initially reported as an average rather than an outright max, which seems weird - must have been an hourly average or even shorter to be as high as that!
I do wonder about the Charlwood figures as they seem quite out of whack with other local stations. It seems like the Met are fairly stringent though.
Shoreham airport reported a max of 28.0 on Sunday which seems to have been struck from the record.
I see that Tenby recorded the warmest Welsh June night ever on June 25th. I was on holiday with my wife that week and we were staying in Tenby. I can vouch for the fact that this night and the one before were incredibly warm for Pembrokeshire. Outside late into the evening in t-shirt and shorts and still feeling warm - was like being on the coast in the Med.

Amazing. 🙂🙂🙂

Currently 34C at mine. Anyone on 35C.

Dew point is still rather high with one local station recording a DP of 21.5C not long ago. Thorney official site DP 19C.
31.2 now and the conservatory 44.1C. After this we should chase for heatave 5 in August with new thread as well.
Regular days over 25C I regard as warm to hot. My forecasts are still showing 26s and 27s after this. 🙂🙂🙂
