I did mention this yesterday, but there are possibilities of some very

This is where one looks closely at the 564 line on charts, I presume.

I think that the chances of high temperatures in London and SE England
later next week are very good. The 564 line may give stratus and
drizzle in Oct, but this will be Aug and that equates to temperatures
reaching 26-28 C (at least) , because the sun tends to 'come out' at
this time of year in those conditions, as the stratus gets burned off
pretty quickly.

As London and SE England is all that the 'national' media care about,
I suspect that the Met Office is in for some pretty serious criticism
later next week.

For those of a nervous disposition, please dont read Simon Jenkins'
comment in today's Guardian. It will only serve to give an idea of
what might be about to occur.
