Even at this stage of the day, we might still not be finished with these high temperatures at the temperature at Edinburgh Gogarbank has just jumped back up to 29.9°C within the last hour which is only 1.0°C below today's recorded maximum for that station so far.
The north of Edinburgh, usually always missing out on snow events which occur not just within the rest of Scotland or the UK, but also within the rest of Edinburgh.

Would it be though? Or perhaps just evidence of the ever increasing urbanisation of the UK, and over on the nearby european mainland due to the out if control population growth's.

I guess the only hope left is the 18:00 reports from the MetOffice. How many stations report at the end of the day that were in the prime locations?

Several are out of action, though. As well as Bedford, there is Monks Wood nearby, and Weybourne in Norfolk, both of which have been off line for days.

I've been out for the afternoon and just got back to check the records and I see that the max. temp. here in Tonbridge today was 37.4*C  (99.4*F) at 3.00pm thanks to a small surge when it had climbed 2degC in 45 minutes.  Now dropped to 35.9*C.

Headcorn at 37C late in the day is interesting. North Kent (ie Faversham) was forecast to be significantly hotter than the Weald (ie Headcorn) on the models.

I think Cambridge Airport tends to have higher maxes in these events than both Cambridge NIAB and Cambridge Botanic Garden. There's a chance it might beat 38.1, but a small one.

I would actually be quite surprised if we didn’t break the record once the 18.00 data is in that will include more analogue maxima readings.

No, the record will be the max, which is usually higher than any of the hourly readings. Eg the max at Heathrow was reported as 37.9C earlier but the highest hourly was 37.2C.

Records can be instantaneous readings. In fact, I’d say that it’s very rare that the maxima coincide with the hourly values.
