What transpires over the next couple of days will be fascinating and hopefully not too harmful.

Closest weather station to here maxed out at 31c according to Weather Online

I won’t lie I feel uncomfortable tonight, but that partly because I’m feeling a bit rough anyway

It reached just under 30C today but the haze surprised me. Could this in part be caused by the Continental fires?


We've lost the deep blue skies and fresher warmth of recent days and it looks almost thundery too.

It’s madness. Everywhere I look on social media people are bringing up summer ‘76. Are they too brain dead to realise that the max temperature in ‘76 is probably going to be a full 5c lower than what we’re going to see tomorrow and Tuesday?!

 Yes this hot blast is extreme but it is set to last just 2 days so we should be able to cope.

Highest hourly reading I have seen so far has been 31.1C at Gringley on the Hill - a few miles from Bawtry, another historic hot spot!


Edit: 32.2C at Hawarden actually! Also 31.2 in Nantwich.

They don’t seem to like this overshadowing it - plus they don’t want to have to face reality on climate change.

It’s quite interesting looking at sea temps around the coast. Also the further west you go along the Channel on the English side the warmer the water gets though  the land temps are considerably lower than further east.


For example according to this site:


https://seatemperatures.net/europe/united-kingdom/


And taking Lulworth Cove which isn't far from me though I wouldn’t dream of heading in that direction at holiday time, the sea temp is 15.24° C. I guess that's not far off as Ringstead Bay (a mile or so west) where I often go was about 15C the other day.


Head west to say St Ives in Cornwall and it’s 17.85° C though coastal land temps there have been a refreshing upper teens/ low twenties recently.


Let’s head to Aberdeen and we find according to this site, that the water temperature in Aberdeen today is higher than the average temperature of 12.87° C (55.16° F) and the temperature on this day last year, 17th July 2021, was 13.79° C (56.82° F). Which of course is good news for two of TWO’s legendary posters though whether they would find the swimming conditions comfortable is another matter.


And you could go on and on ad infinitum contrasting and comparing places.


Near to me the sea temps are actually a little lower than this time last year and places like Weymouth today with a stiff wind from the east and some illegal haze/high cloud struggled to get into the low twenties C. Coupled with blowing sand on the sea front in these conditions it makes it a picnickers/decorators nightmare.


Inland another matter with a high today IMBY a balmy 29.8C and with the winds decreasing to a F2 or less it’s starting to feel a lot like a tropical island in my garden.


Brian asked if any of us will be sleeping in our gardens? Perhaps not tonight for me but tomorrow is another matter.

it is also the case that Raab did indeed say that, as has been noted by the Guardian etc. Even by current cabinet standards he's exceptionally bad! Normally it would seem incredible to say something that appears to be the opposite of all the other advice but there you go!
