Dewpoint 16.5C, air temperature currently 19.8C following a few bursts
of sunshine when it reached 20.2C. Light wind so feeling very, very
muggy, a warm night ahead. Ideal conditions for raising the SST
though.

On the subject of warm nights, I believe the highest minimum
temperature ever recorded in Cornwall was at St Mawgan in August 2003
(23C) - Unless someone knows better!

Just looked out - bursts of sunshine again. Often the case near sea
level in SE facing Penzance under these conditions, nice hole in the
low crowd just over the seafront.

Misty on west facing coasts still www.chapelidne.com/php/surf_report.php

Would that hole in the crowd be because of the humidity Graham or folk
trying to get away from the endless Cornish sunshine ??

Very sharp Ron, especially as you've just had a beer! What temperature are
you showing at 16.15. It's saying 25.1C here which strikes me as being a bit
high?

Actually, I think someone was threatening to play a DVD of Cliff
Richard's Wimbledon performance, either that or a Best of Abba CD.

My max was just 21.6 at 3-29BST Dave, low as usual because of the large oak
tree shading to the southwest.
Unlike the troglodytes on this group I 'LUV' this higher humidity and
being able to take my vest off,lets hope it doesn't get FRESHER for a few
days.....

Felt muggy over my way too, Graham, with Exeter now reporting a dew point of
17C (air temp 19C).

A plume of high theta-w air (16+) is advecting east so air temperatures are
likely to be even higher tomorrow assuming a decent amount of insolation to
the lee of high ground across southern areas. 00Z MetO GM theta-w

Blimey, that Exeter Airport temperature/DP is all over the place again.
Sometimes it is 3C or 4C higher or lower than my readings.

Currently, as you say Exeter Airport is recording 19C and a DP of 17C.

Here are my recordings below:

(20:40), 17.3°C, RH 82%, DP 14.2°C, 1024.9 hPa (R), Wind 4 mph S.

Cloud's fairly well broken in Penzance at the moment, (20:40) and
there seems to be less low cloud south of Ireland now, so I'm hoping
for some spells of sunshine along sheltered parts of the south coast
of west Cornwall tomorrow. If so it'll probably causing a mass exodus
of holiday makers from the north to south coast of Cornwall around
lunchtime.

Lots of caravans, boats, cars full all heading south down A38 this
afternoon. Moorland traffic is increasing too, amazing how many cars don't
seem to have a reverse gear - even nowadays :-)
2100 Temp. 15.9 DP 14C and max. 18.3C (about normal). Naff all wind and very
midgy. Humidity has also given us a plague of flies in the house presumably
from the dead bird that fell down through the eaves off its nest a month
ago - nice!

Low level conditions have deteriorated here in the last hour or so with a
light a drizzle now falling and lowering vis to the west. Not sure if it's
evidence of a deepening boundary layer or just upslope effects; suspect the
latter.

Notice Jersey airport's been on fire since 1750Z :-
