I knew it was going to be warm today but what was predicted seems a shade on
the cool side. It is currently 27.8C in my admittedly sheltered suburban
back garden but the heat seems well distributed within the vicinity here -
five south-east stations on the Ogimet list were all in the Top 5

1 London / Heathrow Airport (United Kingdom) 24.3 °C
2 Gravesend-Broadness (United Kingdom) 23.9 °C
3 London, St James Park (United Kingdom) 23.9 °C
4 Shoeburyness (United Kingdom) 23.6 °C
5 Northolt (United Kingdom) 23.5 °

Wanstead was 23.7C at noon

Could have done with some of that here near Brighton. Breezy, overcast, grey
and occasional sea fog been pretty horrid this afternoon, Just 13°C here at
17.00
