The all-time May record currently stands at 32.8°C (Camden Square on 22 May 1922; and then Horsham, Tunbridge Wells and Regent’s Park on 29 May 1944).

The most recent occurrence of temperatures reaching at least 30°C in May dates back to May 2012, when the threshold was met on 25 May. Prior to that, there were similarly high temperatures reported on 23 May 2010 and 27 May 2005, demonstrating that while uncommon, summer-like heat in May is not unprecedented in the UK climate.

Looking further back into historical records, occurrences of 30°C or above in May are scattered and infrequent. This dataset (back to 1900) shows only a handful of years in which the 30°C mark was reached during May.

Among the earliest instances in the observational record are 29 May 1944, 12 May 1945, 29 May 1947 and 25 May 1953.
