It's beginning to look a little brown across England now due to the lack of rainfall. The last really wet month was September.
Southeast Water, with 1.4 million customers today became the second large water company to announce a hosepipe ban…I would think only a matter of time before Thames Water follows
Yorkshire Water has announced a hosepipe ban, but what does that mean for you? @Hudsonweather

I reckon if the airport was still open, Finningley would have beaten the June Yorkshire record which was set in 1976 (32.1C from memory) - sites like Waddington in Lincs got 32.6C today so it would have been very close !
So close to breaking the June record here in Doncaster
Top temp in Lincolnshire today was at Waddington with 32.6C (91F), In Yorkshire Topcliffe was highest with 31.4C (89F)
A remarkable June evening in Roundhay, Leeds, still 27C (81F) at 9pm at my weather station
Is today the hottest June day ever recorded in Yorkshire? @Hudsonweather
Lovely time at Wetwang. Paul and I got a shock when we found out the legend that is Bernie Clifton had driven all the way from South Yorkshire to surprise us. What an absolute star.
