After a week of hot sunshine and dry ground, but grass still green, the
temperature in my Met Office standard Stevenson screen (UPVC with black
slats inside) reached +29.8C. A new record since moving here in April 2002.
This beats the old record of +29.0C on 10th August 2003 at the same
precise location.
AWS max. was +29.2C at 1600 local. Wind has been F1-2, so well ventilated.
Dewpoint oscillating 15-18C.

Inside the temperature has been up to +23C, also the highest indoor
temperature this year in my house.


So much for trying to escape the heat by living where you do.
