Ok, this is amazing now....
35.0C just reached at 2.10pm. That has completely smashed my all-time recorded max of 34.0C on 3rd Aug, 1990. Still time to go higher. My records go right back to 1982.

The intense heat has set off convection - Not surprisingly.
We've taken #2 if that's any consolation.
2nd hottest day on record at least.
My Vantage vue station is now recording 35.0 c on the nose but the sensor is still currently exposed to the sun. However, that said it recorded 21.5 c this time yesterday mid-afternoon and that was also in full sunshine.Edit: Still climbing to 35.2 c.

Too early to say the all time record won't go. I'm not saying I've called this correctly yet.
I saw 37C in Epsom from my phone app. 33C in Lower Stoke. There some clouds but not shaded here yet.
This is very likely to be the hottest CET max on record. Even using the highest hourly values so far recorded gives a max of 33.1C
Edit: 33.5C. Hottest on record for sure
Probably anothehr 30 minutes left before things peak.
Stansted 37C and east of the cloud.
Stansted AP now 37c only a couple of miles from me not sure if its official or not though.
