It was the hottest Mother's Day in 58 years! Top temp was 28.2 28.5C (83F) in Kouvola, SE Finland.
edit: corrected highest temp

Umm... wonder what’s causing that in the model? Land masses generate friction that slows down the surface level winds whereas the winds flow more rapidly over the smooth surface of the ocean. See that a lot on wind charts for the UK as well.

The point was that the model had the hurricane spending 12 hours over florida then emerging into the atlantic with a lower minimum pressure, something known to be extremely improbable when it comes to tropical systems.

Top temperature today in Estonia was Haapsalu in west Estonia with 28.5c. (An emhi's hydrometric station not far from it recorded unofficially even 30.0c at the same time but that one doesn't count)

Stupid overcast keeping the temps down. It was supposed to be sunny and in the low 70s but instead it’s mostly cloudy with a max of 69 (21 C) so far.
This coming week looks very consistent with highs between 65-75 and lows between 45-55 with a few days of showers.
Im hoping for a heat wave the last week, highest temp is 85 (29 C) so far, which would be the coldest May record high since 2009.
Still looks like it’ll be a warm month with the very warm beginning, a slightly above average mid month and there’s no sign of a cold snap any time soon. Averaging 73.0/48.1 so far (22.8/8.9 C) which is well above average. Also been quite dry so far with just 0.50” (12 mm) on 2 days. Hope the dry pattern keeps up.

24.3C @ 11:00 maybe there's a possibility to reach 29C today.

Apparently still issues with high levels of water in lakes and rivers in far Northern Sweden due to the intensely fast snow-melt! Very rare to see these types of headlines, normally the snowfall during a winter is much lower and the issue is kept rather low-level and local, but this spring it's been all over anything north of 61°N!

Yeah. I've never seen stuff like this before. Every lake has got a bunch of trees submerged by almost half a meter of water. I saw a river with dozens of trees floating around in it, and creeks have become home to frogs as the water level has reached creeks.

Any risk at all of the lake spilling out of control and flooding at least the pathways down there?

Nah. All pathways are at least a meter or two above the water. Lots of trees are submerged though. That's the good thing about coastal areas in Western Europe is that housing, pathways and so forth are well-planned out not to be subject to flooding, unlike areas in the third world where the water just goes straight in. Nyköping is of course extremely dry by global standards, but even during a sea level rise it would have to rise a lot for the harbour to flood. What's the level been like at Umeälven this spring by the way? Judging by Skellefteå is looks extremely controlled with those high pathways so that even a Class 1 level of warning shouldn't make a difference in Umeå.

The main pathways are way too far above the water level for the change to be very noticable. I'd have to go to the outskirts of the city to actually notice the flooding.

Preliminary observations puts Turku's high today at 29.0C! 30C was just a bridge too far.

30.5c was today recorded in an official station in northern Estonia (Kuusiku).
