The temperature reached 21.2 C (70.1 F) in London today beating yesterday's record of 20.6 C, making it warmer than the Spanish holiday resort Ibiza. Average temp this time of year should be 7 C - 9 C (44-48 F). Even here in the usually chilly North-East of England (all those cold winds coming in off the North Sea) it reached 18 C (66 F). Something is definitely amiss here - the lawn is beginning to grow and I don't like the prospect of having to drag out the mower in February ! I hear it hit 86 in parts of Florida this week too.
