Darren Bett was saying that he wouldn't be surprised if we see
temperatures up to 25C next week. It would be nice but that seems a
bit on the high side although I guess the areas sheltered from the
E/NE could make it.

Chris Fawkes upped that to 26C this morning.


The Country Tracks forecast should make for much
more pleasant viewing. Could be quite a dramatic
switch from cool to hot conditions in just a few days.


And Mr Fawkes has just upped that to 27C on Friday,
well for London at least.
He also said that he thought that the dry/warm conditions
would be with us for some time to come.
This is interesting as on the CT forecast they don't normally
comment on the weather beyond the 5 day period.
Confidence levels must be very high.
