Looked like this month would be notably sunny until now in the
Hampshire area.... even yesterday despite the heavy showers was quite
sunny at times.
In Penzance about 0.6 degrees above the 1971-2000 norm. (Just about
spot on the 1991-2004 norm, showing how warm recent Augusts have
been.)

Only 3 days in August have failed to reach 20 degrees. Currently
(13:30 BST) 20.8 and rising. Sunny spells, calml & humid.

Philip Eden's site is a good one to keep an eye on to see how the month
fares for rain, temperature and sunshine:-

Looks as if the SW of England is doing quite nicely!
