The S.E is often the hottest part of the Country with the record high at present so with mid June temperatures largely in the 12-16C range he is entitled to draw attention to it despite the good weather in the West!

Bah humbug... It is that London-o-centric forecasting method they use. 17C here in N Yorks and looks like the sun might break through this pm. Farmers were frantically silaging all weekend and fledgling sparrows out are sat out on the lawn. Serious shortage of housemartins, swifts and swallows up here. I'd estimate about a third of the usual quota! -- Regards, Martin Brown |

Dave I suspect that the trouble is that the North Sea is much colder than it normally is at this time of year.

I'm fed up with them telling me how glorious the weather is
today. It's bloody cold in that north east wind today and we do have some sun, I would be even more p&^%^%d off if I lived further up the east coast were the sun hasn't appeared at all for days. But it *was* glorious in eastern Scotland on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, and on Sunday and Monday afternoons. Certainly, there was an easterly breeze, but not enough to negate the sunshine. Anne |
