Partial Thickness values are similar to previous days, although a slight E drift is becoming established which will lower the temps in E PArts esp tomorrow. The Zone of higher temps is pushed a little further west today vs yesterday but only fractionally.

CS England, THames Valley across to Wessex and Bristol area seeing 19-20C With the top spot again a favoured location likely to see nr 21C

13'c here in Bristol and rising quite quickly!

[Dave W]

A LOT of overnight clag to clear away first though inland in many areas which will not help temp rises

Already 15C in Guernsey & Jersey though..

[Ed.]

Slight haze but predominantly blue skies, i.e, cracking start!

12C atm and rising - looks like 22C could be attained in perhaps more sheltered W parts of UK, (my guess..) Cheltenham/Glouc/Avon/Cardiff zones..

[Dave W]

Jersey is warming up well today.. 17C at 10Z

[Dave W]

Remarkably though Gogerddan is already 18.8C at 10Z

[Chris Alder]

Already 16c at Hurn, not bad given it got down to zero just after sunrise.

[Dave K]

22.2 °C is the daily max record for 24th at Hodsock Priory, Notts in 1918.

[Ed.]

Trawscoed also sitting on 18C - pretty good considering!

[Dave W]

Quite a few places on 18C now as of 1050Z incl Bournemouth .. which as mentioned has seen a 18C rise already this am. A lot of clag left though in places esp further north and east which is being very slow to clear..

We are at 16C here too in Brighton, good goin for us right on the sea..

[Dave W]

Edit- Shoreham 17C now as well, can't be long before the sea breeze kicks in and we fall by 3-4C !

[Dave K]
