Re: UK Weather - Summer 2021
Posted: Sun 29/08/2021 00:41
The weather has bene dry and fine for the last five days with high pressure anchored to the NW of the UK. The best of the sunshine and the warmth has been in the north and west, and on Wednesday (25th August) the temperature reached 27.2°C at Tyndrum in the SW Highlands in Scotland. This looks likely to be the maximum temperature for the month of August and it is certainly unusual for a site in Scotland to record the highest temperature in one of the summer months.
The settled weather looks set to continue well into early September as the high pressure cell remains close to the UK and we could be looking at a two week dry spell for many areas. Temperatures will remain around average with a few chilly nights. Autumn is calling!
The Met Office has produced a preliminary summary of the UK summer (up to 25th of August for some reason) and it shows a warmer than average summer for all, with the best weather in the north and west. Indeed, the far south has been colder, wetter and duller than average.
