Default First 20C day at 25C?

not quite a 25C here in northern ireland! I managed to record a 12.4C max
between the heavy off-on rain all day! most of the day the temp was below
8C!

My first 20C day today at 24.5C, easily beating the previous
record (from yesterday) of 18.3C.

Now this got me thinking, there must have been a fair number
of places in the country today whose first 20C day was also
their first 25C day. Now to me this seams like a statistically
rather unlikey feat but perhaps it's more common than I
might imagine. Is there any data on this interesting (though
admittedly rather obscure) event?
