In Sunny Yorkshire it was 26 degrees by the time we started the first Rugby session of the season at 1030. I'm sure I'll look back on it with wonder come February.

I'm trying to convince two small dogs that it's too hot for them to go our for a walk at the moment and that they should go later. I am getting *LOOKS*...

Just reached 31 here in CambridgeNorthamptonshire

Quite cool in Saarfend, relatively speaking. The temperature hasn't reached 26°C on either of the last two days.

Was surprised to find it’s 25C in York but it doesn’t feel like a heatwave. Perhaps because it isn’t.

Got up to 27 along the Columbia River this arvo but the Mighty Rushing Wind made it feel a lot less toasty. As well as constantly trying to remove my hat chiz.

It's 4am. I have the balcony door open. It's a still night outside.

Indoor temp is currently 25.4°C.

It's lovely.

It was 30 yesterday here in sunny North Herts. It never ceases to amaze me when i hear people say we havnt had a summer. As a builder working outdoors for much of the time, i can assure people that since 1977 i cant recall not having had a warm/ hot spell every year.
Totally wiped out yesterday. When i saw the forecast for tempertures in the high 20s for this week my heart sank. Then i remind myself that ill soon be cycling along a bridleway as the roads are too icy.
Exactly two years ago my son and i cycled LEJOG and there was a heatwave.
rinse and repeat.

Relative scorchio

on Saturday a.m. - going to hit 18-20C, with southerly gale.

TimC · « **Reply #809 on:** 04 April, 2024, 10:14:01 am »

18°C is noteworthy in February. Not in April. Except, perhaps, in 2024. Just a dry day is worthy of headlines.

Yesterday was weird. If fluctuated between cold/warm, wet/dry/sunny and very windy/no wind. Today it's completely still, no wind, no sun, no rain and only 7C.

Confirming that it's April and still bloody raining.
More Scorchio please.

Quite windy, but nothing exceptional, and 5C below the promised 22C. Well done, Meteo. Wrong again.

Indeed. I postponed my planned ride today due to the forecast 40+mph winds, which of course didn't get above 20. Bah.

Reached 18C after a very wet night and York has floods of a minor nature so far.

Was 23°C in Amsterdam today. In the first week of April...

Wtf.

It's been pretty cold here in NY, so maybe you will get cold weather in a few days.

I wasn’t keeping weather records that far back, but I have a strong recollection from >20 years ago of spending a day teaching and the temperature reaching 26°C. That was in Chelmsford on 8th April.

Also, in 2011, Jan and I rode a Scottish Borders coast to coast in early April a week after record breaking March temperatures well in excess of 20°C.

T42 · « **Reply #818 on:** 07 April, 2024, 08:47:00 am »

17°C at 05:30 this morning.

rogerzilla · « **Reply #819 on:** 07 April, 2024, 09:03:47 am »

Only 9 and a bit here. It was certainly a lot nicer yesterday, riding in about 15 degrees.

Sergeant Pluck · « **Reply #820 on:** 12 April, 2024, 04:16:37 pm »

22°C here now in SW London.

Mid-April. Sweaty commute season is getting longer.

Sleet/snow forecast here tonight in northern New York State.

The hayfever and random sexual harassment seasons have started.

I have ordered a special order new kilt from Utilikilt, made in 6oz ripstop polycotton, for warm weather walking. I have a 7.5oz version, but it’s just a bit too warm for summer use in places with sun.

Asterix, the former Gaul. · « **Reply #824 on:** 13 April, 2024, 05:42:31 pm »

Strong gusts of wind and rain. Not forecast yesterday.
