Here is a summary of the NWP output for 12z on Monday.
Issued 0536z, 31st May 2007.

High pressure will be in charge for the first half of next week, with
all areas seeing drier conditions than of late. Although the winds
won't be from a warm source

I much prefer warm weather from a cool source, if that makes any
sense...

I guess Tuesday before last (22nd) was like that - and it just shows
what effect the sun and lack of wind can have on the temperatures. The
Monday (21st) was decidedly cool (under total cloud cover), so it
looks like the airmass was inherently not particularly warm. That
didn't stop the temperature reaching the low 20s on the Tuesday
though. May is probably the month above all others where the presence
or absence of sun, wind, heavy cloud and rain influence the
temperatures perhaps more than the air mass.
