Here the temp has rocketed from a low of 14*C at 6 am to just past 21*C as of 8:30.

Reminds me of last Friday with the rapid rise from a non-exceptional start.

Usually a day in the 30s is past 24*C by 10 am here. Will likely be well on pace today.

PS I am never sure why Jersey gets included in lists of UK temperatures. I know it's a British dependency but on that basis you may as well include Gibraltar!

28C as of 20 minutes ago in Calais - far and away above anything in the UK. However, with a southerly / SSE'ly flow likely, you can see where the hot air is coming from!

Jersey was already 25.6C at 9am. Could be close to a record-breaker for the Channel Islands too - 36.0C is the all-time Jersey record.

Wonder if anywhere will top 37C like last Friday.

Meanwhile, in Cumbria, some sun and a temp in the 20's would be appreciated! It's another climate altogether it would appear. So pleased for everyone getting these hot temps tho…………..

Slower rise so far today. But I think the max is due a bit later.


I think wind direction also become important as turns SE around 15:00. I think we will see a surge mid afternoon.


Heathrow currently 27C at 10:00am

Think we will see a more linear rise in temps today rather than the early surge then levelling off somewhat. Lighter winds so less of the early heat from France being imported, but would expect that to be more of a factor later. Not sure what others think?

Very slow start it seems, while France is already roasting. I noticed a bit of dampness on the ground this morning so perhaps a bit of dew to burn off first.

Edit - LHR 10am reading was actually 26.7C. I am updating the hourly tracker on the previous page.

Models suggesting 35-36C maxima are about 2-3C too cold atm in the SE.

On the three previous hottest days, Heathrow was already at or above 33C by 11am (BST). It's going to be a long way short of that today, but the modelling does suggest a big rise through the afternoon.


 


Justin - I think he means the models that have 35-36C maxima are showing temps 2-3C lower for the current time than they are right now in reality?

So naively if we keep this 2-3C lead we would expect to see 37-39C however I'm sure we won't keep it all. The models do definitely seem to be understating the temperature though, so 36-37C definitely seems more likely than not now.
