Weather stations across the East Midlands are reporting a very hot 33 to 35c.
My weather station is now on 34.3c.
The hottest day here ever since I starting recording back in 2000.
Just to put this in perspective, if 36.7C is as high as it goes this will be the equal third hottest day EVER recorded in the UK.previous top 5:1st 38.5 10/08/20032nd 37.1 03/08/19903rd 36.7 09/08/19114th 36.6 02/08/19905th 36.5 19/07/2006

When you put this into perspective the 1st July is remarkably early for such a ferocious temperature.
That's not fair when Nav shows it -20 in winter it never comes off
You guys are all going to have egg on your face when yesterday's NAVGEM turns out to be right!
THIRTY SIX! RECORD CRITICALLY ENDANGERED.

The stats I've used all day are from White Lightnings Davis VP2 in Seabrook (max of 33.6c).
I shall confirm mine when I get home at 6pm.
My own station is currently recording 30.4 C, which is actually more than I expected given my close proximity to the sea and the wind wafting in from the south (I expected 28 C tops for here).
No high temperatures here on the Northumberland Coast. After a sunny and windy day with a max of around 20-22C we are now in the middle of a thunderstorm with heavy rain and hail.
I don't think many people that live and work in them areas will be sad, only weather geeks
This station is showing 39C

I know I know, but the main point is the temp rapidly rose a few mins ago, if this is mirrored by the northolt station we could get 37C.
Small little storm in the Channel, South of Brighton/Newhaven
Wunderground is reporting Bedford at 35.9C. Not sure how reliable the station is, but still maybe a little bit of time left.

No! We need 2 months of parching drought and yellow landscapes first. Storms welcome from 1 September onwards.
