Default Rather quiet here, given the heat?

Usually in much warmer (or colder) than average conditions, this NG is

It's been quite cool in SE England, though, hasn't it?

Currently 30.1°C.

A max of 29.5C here.
That's my second highest reading of all time (records started Sept 2000)
and only bettered by the 31.3C recorded on 9th August 2003.

Had there been less cloud build up this afternoon, which looked pretty
threatening at times 30C would probably have been achieved.

Sorry Paul, I was sat in the garden with a cold beer :-) Currently about
21C here near Lincoln, today's max was 26C, but as has been mentioned in
other posts, it felt a lot warmer.

Topped out at 29.1c here in Brampton, Cumbria that makes in the 4th warmest
day since I started recording in 1999. What makes this different is the
blueness of the sky - usually it becomes hazy buts the visibility has been
excellent all day.

In a word, no. Today (Monday) and yesterday have been too hot for my
liking, here in Surrey.

Same here in Shrewsbury.

Until 1300BST there was not a cloud to be seen, and I thought we'd get
a 30C. From 1300-1500 a few cumulus developed, yet the sun was still
keeping us warm.
At 1600 it suddenly (and I mean suddenly) clouded over to 7/8ths cloud
cover, which looked black and threatening. I thought we were in for a
thunderstorm, but no. Just annoying cloud from nowhere which spoilt the
late afternoon. Where did this appear from? (MO radar showed similar
cloud development in a line from Cumbria down to just south of here)
Wasn't a front AFAIK, no precip, or TS.
1900 sun came out again. All in all a lovely day, except for those 3
hours of unforecast cloudy weather.

Some kind of convergence line perhaps?
I did notice on the forecast that there were light westerlies in the west and
light easterlies in the east. This combined with sea breezes and uplift
over the Pennines could have led to it. Though that's doesn't really work
for Shrewsbury!
To be fair cloud build up in the afternoon and even a very isolated shower
in Pennine areas was mentioned, so for me at least it was a very good forecast.
