Another very unusual temperature distribution on Sunday, with the
disproportionate coolness of the south-western UK (from Sussex
westwards and northwards to north Wales) manifesting itself clearly in
the mean temperatures, whilst East Anglia and eastern Scotland do
well.What is surprising is the (very warm for the area, I would guess)
20C on the outer Hebrides and 22C in Skye. I can vouch for that as was
walking on the downs in Wiltshire yesterday and it wasn't just cool,
it was decided autumnal cold. Had it not stayed light so long it could
easily have been a day in early October!
