Over the sandy soil of Breckland, Norfolk The Met Office listed Santon
Downham Climat station as Coldest night *with Min 4.5C, Warmest day, 27..0C
and wettest 20mm for East Anglian region for 24 hours to 2100Z on Saturday.

And 20 miles or so away (from Thetford) in Ely we saw precisely zero
rainfall. Conditions are really arid around here at present. Plenty of
(very unusual) cereal irrigation also going on (potatoes etc yes - not
that unusual, but cereals not so). Saturday max at a well-exposed site
out in the fen measured at 26.7C. I see Lakenheath and Mildenhall were
also showing 27C max on Saturday (though just reading to the nearest
integer degC IIRC).
