Currently 31.4C, following on from a max of 33.2C earlier this evening.
Dropped below 30C now. What kind of heatwave is this? :)
Rob - which weather station are you using as your ‘local’ out of interest? It’s been consistently a couple of degrees lower than the iPhone reading for Farnborough or Camberley today (still not sure where this data is sourced)?
Don't feed the troll
Whoosh
Straight over
I’ve just spent the evening watching Sky news. Wall to wall coverage. Tell me again, what has the government done today (that notoriously woke, lefty Tory government we are currently enjoying) to infringe your civil liberties in any way whatsoever?We don’t even have a hosepipe ban or a ban on outdoor smoking in the countryside. Or even a ban on barbecues or bonfires. Vast swathes of France are on alerte canicule currently meaning a large number of ordinary activities are restricted. In the libertarian paradise of the UK, nada.[/quoteWe probably ought to, only just now i caught a nasty whiff of a cheap sausage on a Barbecue

Still 32.2°C here. Incredible at 20:00.It's possible it might still be above 30°C at 21:00, which would be beyond unheard of.
Yep, still 30.2°C now.
I just plunged into our deep paddling pool in full t-shirt and shorts - I’d recommend it, by far the best way to cool off. And I’m now actually shivering. Local PWSs down to about 31C now. 21C at vineyard.
If you haven’t got a plunge pool, have a cold shower directly before bed, until you feel really cold and don’t dry yourself.
Cloud attack from the SE of here around 2pm which came from Coventry that may had prevent them from going ot 37-38C values.
The cloud formed over Solihull and headed to Nuneaton Jiries must admit I think it stopped us going higher so hopefully no cloud tomorrow until late afternoon so I reckon we will see 38c or so.
31.2c @ 9:20pm!
Just watched the BBC national forecast we have chance to see 40C as the red hot area from Birmingham eastward, he put 40C symbol just NE of Birmingham that over my area as he zoomed in and show 42C NE from here toward 41C in south of York. i wonder how it can reach 42C there bypassing London which is lower than north.
Me too, although I’m not shivering but I am very cool and dripping. If you haven’t got a plunge pool, have a cold shower directly before bed, until you feel really cold and don’t dry yourself.

Our hot tub is set to 'tepid'
Currently sat in it up to my chin(s), posting on here, with a nice cold Bud.
Think I'll probably have a final, pre-bedtime dip later, too.
Cooling down quicker than I expected in St Albans this evening. Now 27.4C on my garden thermometer. No overnight records likely in these parts. I'm guessing humidity is still low and is allowing temperatures to fall away quickly.
28.5C here.
