the urbanisation of Heathrow has never halted in the last 60 years and

impossible.

Every weather presenter knows if you need an extreme max look no further
than O3772. In winter Gatwick was always a bet for coldest in the SE but
nowadays Benson seems to be the place.


The Heathrow max on that day does look a bit dodgy, but its the
insatiable desire for a headline that drives these weather presenters
onto social media with their tweets thats even more alarming. Of course
it might not be the weather presenters at all but someone in the
production department whose job it is to generate headlines. It might be
better if the BBC weather app is modified with a direct video link to a
web cam focused on the dry bulb thermometer at Heathrow and be done with
it.

Well said Bruce. This whole extreme weather stuff has got well out of
hand. I blame ****ter and its ****s :-)

Does anyone know where the instruments now are at Heathrow? Looking at
Google Earth, there seems to be a Met enclosure at the same place it was
when there were MetO observers, but it's difficult to be sure.

Bruce, I thought Gatwick was notable for fogging out, not coldest.
