Default Hotest Day Claim

Yesterday evening the BBC Radio 4 news was reporting that Tuesday had been the
hottest day of the year. The news report gave the impression that this claim
had been based on a single maximum reading from Jersey Airport. Does this mean
that had the UK mainland been covered in ice and snow throughout Tuesday then it
would still have been claimed as the honest day or is some other method (eg an
average temperature of some sort) used to determine which days are honest or
coldest?

Incidentally, the maximum temperature reached here on Tuesday (30.2) was
slightly lower than that reached on Monday (31.2).
