Clouded over a little at lunchtime, but still reached 29.6C - in my bedroom it's currently 30.3C despite my best efforts at closing curtains and blinds (there must be a point where opening windows lets heat in rather than out of the house, and it looks like I've reached it today!  )

[John]

We hit 30ºC under the shade of the parasol on the patio late afternoon. It was 21ºC in the house. The polytunnel peaked at 42ºC - I should have put the misters on but that involved walking up to it and connecting them to the hose. Far too much effort!

[Lardman]

Cloudy and grey but very warm.

It's still 26c in the house even with everything being opened up at 6am to try and get some fresh air in. A very unpleasant night and I'm not impressed with the weekend forecast of 36c either.

Two reasons to open the windows here - the heat and I also burnt the toast...

But the good news is that I've found the spoke-rattle on my bike, and can peacefully go where nobody has peacefully gone before! (They all needed tightening, and in fact, the wheel is straighter than it's ever been, so all is just fine)!

It's quite cloudy this morning and 22C, so not quite Scorchio 
I'll still need to water in the greenhouse. though..

There's your problem! Wheels on the bike should be round and round 

I thought I'd have an early night and get out early this morning to sort out in the polytunnel before it gets too hot. So Gandalf the Stray came in and had fights with our resident cats @ 2am and 4am. Thanks

Now it's drizzling and they're predicting proper rain at lunchtime....

[Lardman]

It ended up cloudy and very muggy all day yesterday with occasional large rain drops but not even enough to wet the pavement.

It's fresher so far this morning, 14c , bright and with a good breeze.

[John]

 Yesterday was weird with frequent very light rain but warm all the same.  - Looks like it's going to be a lovely day today though.

It's cloudy this morning and although it's 20C, that feels cool, after the last few days 

[Goosegirl]

This morning was cloudy and a bit cool on the arms but now it's hot. God help GG when it hits over 30C next week as I'll have to shed all my feathers and that won't be a pretty sight I can tell you!

Best male cat name EVER . . .

A friend of mine once had 2 cats, a female named Queen Elizabeth Taylor the First, the other was a male cat named Thud. Both names appropriate for those cats! 

Just to stay on topic, 28 C here at noon, overcast.  I'm about to push the self-propelled lawn mower around the yard to get the grass cut. (The mower is self-propelled because I propel it myself).

[Yorkie]

Lovely day - hit the heights of 27C this afternoon, but with a slight breeze

Got a couple of hours in this morning but the afternoon was spent being dormant on the patio under the parasol. Don't know what the mercury rose to but inside the house was a cool 19.5ºC.
There are some benefits from cold stone buildings although the heat will come through the walls in a week or so!

It's a lovely morning  20C with a slight breeze taking the edge off the heat.
Not Scorchio yet
