It’s the Flood Forecasting Centre in London confirming extreme rainfall in just two hours

at 17 to 18 °C across these areas with a 12-hour minimum of 19.6 °C at London St James's Park - exceptionally mild for the time of year. Numerous stations set October minimum temperature records, for example at Cambridge Botanic Garden and Hastings (East Sussex) in 80+ year record lengths.

The research for his PhD at Imperial College, London was atmospheric modelling of the environmental consequences
on 26 February with temperatures exceeding 20 °C in London, west Wales and as far north as Rochdale making this a more widespread event than the previous record set in February 1998. New national records were also set for Wales (20.8°C at Porthmadog on 26th) and Scotland (19.3 °C at Aboyne on 21st
of observations to numerical weather prediction accuracy and more detailed observations from the satellite will enhance the complex calculations that can be made as part of weather forecasting, enhancing accuracy. A 2024 study by London Economics concluded that Met Office returns £19 in value
