Should've been like this all June - early September, IMO. I've loved this hot weather but it doesn't feel right for October. I like rain and cold weather and that's what it should be like in October, really.

I suppose it's a nice change, though, and I'll probably be going to the beach. Hope there's some fit bird waiting for me there...

We seem to have had summer early, then late. Not in the middle where it 'should' have been. Where I live anyway. We got a heatwave in Spring and one now!

Yeah, I'm back. Had a normal conversation with a few posters on here and it's like I never left.

I do admit to missing here but I wasn't initially keen on posting but, once you get sucked in, you can't come out.

How have you all been?

On all the weather sites I've seen it gets gradually colder until it's just 13 on Friday with some rain. Is this supposed heatwave only in the south?

[MTVN]

Think the heatwave generally ends on tuesday, the title's just a little outdate I think

Yeah, that was pretty much it really. Done

Now get yer wellies on

The remnants of Hurricane Ophelia will lash Britain with strong winds and rain this week, forecasters said.

But much of England and Wales will see the unseasonably warm weather continue for another two days at least.

Andy Ratcliffe, a forecaster with MeteoGroup, said the remains of the hurricane, currently hitting north America, will affect Scotland, Northern Ireland and the North West of England from Wednesday. "That will bring strong winds and rain to north western parts of the UK," he said.

But the mini-heatwave continued in England and south Wales on Sunday, with the mercury peaking at 29.4C at RAF Mildenhall, Suffolk, around 3pm, a new record for October 2.

The UK's hottest day of 2011 was June 27 when a temperature of 33.3C (91.9F) was recorded at the Olympic Park in London.

But not everyone in Britain shared in the heatwave. While many headed for beaches and parks, rain fell on North Wales, most of the north of England, Scotland and Northern Ireland with temperatures hovering around 15C.

Many feared the worst for the country's motorways but traffic remained at "normal Sunday levels" as of 4pm.

Andrea Day, communications manager, Trafficlink, which provides live travel news, said: "The M40 is a little busy around Buckinghamshire towards London and there's a bit of traffic on the A1 near Newcastle, but it's nothing that's ringing too many alarm bells.

"It's a normal, busy Sunday afternoon with people heading back home for the working week."

People in England and Wales can look forward to basking in more warm weather as the working week begins, with highs of around 25C. "Tomorrow much of England and Wales will continue with plenty of sunshine," said Mr Ratcliffe.
