Default Cornish north Coast - Warmest Day of the year

26.8C at Land's End, highest for a few years, a F4 ESE just off the land. Just onshore at Penzance - max 24.6C so far.


Warmest day of the year to date with a maximum of 27.0C here and with a
DP of 21.0C at the same time, it felt very warm and humid.

UV down on previous days with 'just' 7.9.

We really could do with some rain but looking at the long range forecast
it seems that here in the deep south, there's none on offer for the next
week at least.

The garden grass has gone from green to brown in under a week and the
hills out back are now turning brown too. This part of Devonshire is no
longer the lush, pastoral landscape it normally is.

Today, the offshore SSTs at 1 metre depth in Lyme Bay exceeded 20C for
the first time this summer.
