And now 15.9C to 9th.

Met Office: 16.2C to the 10th (+0.2C). Finally we are above average for the month.

Considering how nice July has been so far it's a testament to the dryness of the airmass and hence the relatively cold nights, as well as the West-centred nature of the CET in a month where East has been best.

Given the way the models are looking an 18c+ july is now well possible.

Didn't take long to hump that over 17.0C

Hadley 16.6C to 11th, as predicted. I reckon today's heat will move it to 16.8 or 16.9 followed by a slight levelling. When we get to the end of the week it will be low 17s and mid month. A meteoric short term rise to between 17.4 and 17.6 by Tuesday then very uncertain.

Models suggesting another plume maybe at the end of next week. Could we get a 19C?

Think we'll be well into the 19s by the 24th. The final week could be iffy though.

Monday is surely going to be a strong contender for the hottest CET day ever, and by some margin?

The record to beat is 25.2C (set on 29 Jul 1948 & 25 Jul 2019).

Looking at the UKV, even a conservative estimate would have a max for the CET area of 36C and a minimum of 21C, giving a mean of 28.5C.

Taking the more extreme end of a 38C max and a 22C minimum we would end up with a 30C CET day, which is just ridiculous to contemplate.

Surprising to see 1948 holding that joint record still .. it's not a heatwave that gets mentioned very often now but has survived several smashings of the record UK temperature...

I think some of these historical data were slighly altered when CET 2.0.0 was started a few weeks ago

Just to be a bit pedantic, the leader on its own now is 25 July 2019 at 25.3C

(12/08/2020 is 2nd at 25.2C and 29/07/1948 3rd at 25.1C)

As one of the 3 CET locations is in Lancashire I am not sure a combined average max of 36C is goint to be that easy - but should be interestung to see

I was going by the UKV grid points for the CET locations. If it goes as modelled then the widespread nature of the heat would be amazing. Even a max of 35 and min of 18 would smash the record by over 1 degree.

Manchester is forecast to be 34C on Tuesday as per the BBC, while the GFS shows 40C around there. I know the Lancashire site is north of Manchester but it gives you an idea of how widespread the exceptional heat is forecast to be.
