Has anywhere in the UK recorded a 30C max on any day this year yet? If not,
how unusual is this?

I think it was barely reached in one spot on one day.

If not,

Very unusual in recent years, I would think, but not that uncommon in
the 1950s-1970s.

I guess there's still time if the "here in five days" high of recent
forecasts ever actually makes an appearance... :-)
I think this must be the 'worst' (depending on your view) summer for
hot days since the eighties though - the other year which springs to
mind (1998) had about 5 or 6 consecutive days of close to or above 30C
in early-mid August.

I recorded 30.1C on the 5th August in Canterbury (but not official!).
Only six days so far this year have exceeded 25C - it would be
interesting to see what the lowest number of days to exceed 25C in past
years is.

In the 50s and 60s it was quite something to reach 28C never mind 30C on a
regular basis. Of course in recent years we have become more accustomed to such
heat, so when we get a rather cool summer (temperature wise) it seems wrong or
unusual.

Certainly rare since 1970. Only 3 years have had an annual maximum
less than 30C

1993: 29.7C at East Bergholt
1981: 29.5C at Kew.
1978: 28.8C at Poolewe

The lowest annual maximum 1900-2006 was recorded at the old MetO
station here in Raunds in 1920 with 27.8C

Oh, I know. Hence the exclamation marks.
