RMK: Vis less 'perfect' than I thought it would be. Broken
Sc layer has been coming and going all morning, although
some elements show a hint of vertical development. Bar
unusually high for July ... must check last time it got this high

My record for July (last 30 years), Philip, is 1034.0 on 16th 1996. This
morning's 1032.2 equals last July's max (on 12th). My average highest for
July is 1028.0.

I see the UK record is 1038.3 at North Shields in 1911 (courtesy of
Stephen B) ... seemingly not at risk on this occasion.
