That's one of my pet annoyances too, along with 'warmer temperatures' and
'colder temperatures' - a temperature can't be 'warm' or 'cold', but it can
be 'high' or 'low'.

'Weather front' has become ubiquitous across BBC presenters'
discourse. It must be policy and I cannot for the life of me fathom
