we had some big weather contrasts across the uk on monday. now, for central and eastern parts of england, it was a cloudy day with outbreaks of light and patchy rain around. it was a cold day. temperatures just seven or eight degrees, well below average for this time of the year. and actually, these kind of temperatures are much closer to the averages you'd see in february. so, if you thought it felt a bit wintry, well, you weren't too far off the mark, but it was a different story further north. in scotland, we did have some brighter skies and some sunshine and we had temperatures 16—16.5 degrees or so in glasgow, so was actually warmer than average here. now, the reason we've got these kind of contrast at the moment is we do have some slightly milderair coming in off the atlantic into generally western areas of the uk. but this trough in the jet stream across europe is dragging in cold northerly winds across a good part of central and eastern england. really, there's not going to be a huge amount of change in that over the next few days.
