Default Why are these NE winds so mild?

I believe the automatic temps are for the mildest location and also taken
from the 850 temps, in a high pressure set up as of present will not allow
for the colder air below this.

Col Simply put, I believe the forecast temperatures will turn out to be
inaccurate as they normally are.

OK, we've got a strong NE flow coming up over the weekend moving
around high pressure with largely clear skies. However temps are
*still* expected to be 6/7C, surely around average for this time of

year.
Never mind the 'bitter' (ha-ha!) feel of the wind, why so mild?
This is a strong NE flow in February for heavens sake, I'd have thought
2-3C, or even lower would be more the order of the day.
I would expect 6-7C in a showery and blustery NW flow to the rear of
a depression not in what looks like it should be a 'classic' cold

situation.

So what is the answer, SST's, global warming.........?
