I live currently between Cardiff and London and I note that both Capitals have managed the highest May temperature on record.
Of course high summer temperatures (plus also low ones- Lords cricket ground on some days in early June anyone?) are hardly unknown in London. I seem to recall going back quite a while one or two days when the temperature touched 100F (in old money).
Such temperatures in Cardiff are less usual. Its generally a few degrees cooler than London.
Of course I’m not a weatherman (not even a political one). I’ll leave that to the professionals at the Met Office.
Even so its clear that despite the well known variables of the UK weather hot days and heavy downpours are becoming more frequent and underlying that is the impact of climate change…
What is to be done? If your Nigel Farage, look for donations from fossil fuel companies.. There are alternatives


Bob Dylan- you don’t need to be a weatherman……
