Clear spells and the temperature holding up still. A really nice evening.

11.0c clear with slight breeze.

21°C seems possible. 25°C less so based on official observed maxima http://www.weatheronline.co.uk/weather/maps/current?LANG=en&CONT=euro&LAND=UK&REGION=0003&SORT=3&UD=0&INT=06&TYP=tmax&ART=kartealle&RUBRIK=akt&DATE=1433710800&CEL=C&SI=mph

Windy again here until evening, with max of 15.7C despite long sunny spells.
Feels chilly again now at 10.2C

In a heavily urbanised area local hot spots are always a possibility given a little shelter from the prevailing wind.

At 5pm this evening it was generally just over 21C, however during my cycle back from work I did encounter a few areas with the temperature easily in mid 20C's. These areas were large open areas too, pockets larger then a football stadium..   

 Kinda just like an oversized garden effect 😊

But I guess it's just as likely his thermometer was a little exposed ☀️

 

it was 25c on my car temp gauge and it's normally correct, andI had to have 2 windows down and the air con full blast! Sorry if that seems improbable to those in the frozen north ...

car thermometers are never right.. They're ridiculous things, gimmicks really. 

 

Most likely that your car temp was reading near surface road temps, which would be considerably higher than air temps recorded at standard stations.

Well I disagree because mine nearly always matches what is forecasted, except for yesterday....

 

Plus 21c doesn't cause me to be sweltering in a short dress as I was yesterday and require full air con...!!! ;-)

OK, you are right and the network of all official weather stations in the UK are 4degC off the mark. ;)

Despite living in the frozen north I realise other places may be warmer than here at times. Shock horror I have even visited a few when out and about on my horse and cart.

Seriously though car thermometers for the reasons mentioned before do often over estimate the temperatures and it is all rather academic as 21°C in sunshine and light winds will fell just lovely anyway.
