Some charts (GFS...) continuing to advocate extreme heat next week from the plume. Temporary, very hot, very humid - very big breakdown on Friday with very big storms.
Keeping an eye on things - warmer, definitely. Extreme heat...? Maybe.
I am as excited by this as I get for Snowmaggedon on the opposing thread. I hope not to be equally disappointed :-)Keeping an eye on things - warmer, definitely. Extreme heat...? Maybe.

This is good news. Just what I want. 
Hit 37 this time last year when we were travelling down!
I was there... (further north between Tours/Le Mans). Hit 37 this time last year when we were travelling down!It was brutal and relentless. Thank god 1) for the big tree in the garden 2) the swimming lake in the village (which was a mere 29 degrees)
6am data from GFS only upgrades the heat.
Honestly hoping for some downgrades soon... They are exceptional charts, with the true meaning of the word.
This is the upper atmosphere temp chart for Thurs:
Remember that we can normally easily add at least 8 degrees to this to get the ground temp.

Even better! I absolutely love the heat. When on holiday, I am happy to sit about in the warm. Makes it that much better.It was brutal and relentless. Thank god 1) for the big tree in the garden 2) the swimming lake in the village (which was a mere 29 degrees)

When you come out with statement like that, I get the same feeling I did on Christmas eve when I was six years old!Honestly hoping for some downgrades soon... They are exceptional charts, with the true meaning of the word.

Was sunny earlier in East Berks but not hot. (I did read the date on those charts as today, not next Thursday, didn't I?)
However, the atmosphere has that "something is going to happen" feel to it.
[edit] there are two dates, todays when the chart was produces then a "French" date for next week, I look forward to it, but today still has that "something is going to happen" feel.

What's the Middlesbrough area looking to do over the next week? I'm sick of the heavy rain for 3 days then half a day of sunshine.
Winds will have an easterly aspect to them for some time - so off the north sea and therefore not as hot. But mainly dry, some heavy downpours!Puggit said:
