Default Who's reached 21C this year?

Quite unusually, we're into the second half of May and have had nothing
higher than 18C this year in mid-Shropshire. I seem to remember places
in Wales reaching 21 in late March, the usual southeastern suspects
(London, Gravesend etc) the weekend 30th April/1st May, and somewhere
in Scotland this week. Yet here we're still waiting, despite several
fine sunny days. Who else has/hasn't reached the big 21 yet?

The warm spell at the turn of this month saw 21+ within a line
roughly from Lincoln to Wolverhampton to Hereford to Salisbury to
Winchester, but excluding all the south coast and parts of the east coast.
As you say, isolated spots outside this area reached 21+ in mid-March
(Trawscoed, Saunton Sands) and last week (Perth/Strathallan). But
that's about it.

Much of Britain failed to pass 21 until early-July in 1972.

Not me, that's for sure!

Highest has been 18.1C on May 2nd.
What is really remarkable is that my *2nd* highest temp was 17.6C,
recorded way back on March 19th, a whole 2 months ago.
Had that temp occurred today it would probably have felt pretty warm!
