@Rroff You’re a bit of a weather expert mate, any signs that we could get a bit more high twenties and sun or do you think it’s all downhill from here?
It's too hot :(

LOL I know enough to be dangerous nothing more heh.
GEFS output (which is a very basic way to look at the medium term) is pretty dismal overall - 1-2 days might be nice but looks like more normal for the UK for most of the rest:
Though the actuality so far has been slightly below the GEFS predictions.
Most of the models seem to have a teaser for high pressure pushing over the UK early September allowing warmth in from the south so might be nice for a week or so in September but too far off to be sure yet.

I'm kind of hoping for a nice week or so in September - I've got a week off work and a nice warm September is perfect for me - I find mid-summer sun far too strong to do anything outside.
It's still 23 degrees here.Its too cold.
We still need some rain. It's still just endless sunshine.
Still, at least I'm comfortable now in shorts and t-shirt. Rather than sweating my newts off every minute of the day.

Well its still warm but its barely stopped raining here. Not that I'm complaining the only thing growing where the grass used to be is weeds the rest is brown bread. I'm heading in to the west country in the next few days so it that continues for the rest of the week that'll do nicely, ta.
had our fair share of rain in north Cornwall garden is very lush tbh .there was no way my lawn was going to be allowed to die in heatwave especially as sw water had no issues with hose pipes and i can see how full colliford lake was !
I think we had a bit more rain overnight; the pavement outside the back door is wet.
The biggest problem is that the ground is only superficially wet; there hasn't been enough rain to soak the ground properly. Dig down more than a couple inches (I'm gardening all this week), and the soil is literally dust. So whilst the top looks wet/damp, there are still deep cracks throughout the place.
It's the driest I've ever seen in decades.
Right now I'll take all the rain I can get - the more the merrier

There seems to be another wave of heat coming in but it's grey and overcast so it's pure humidity. It's been quite pleasant at night but last night was horrible again; no breeze and oppressive humidity
I wish I lived in Alasaka.
