The next day came reports of several road closures in west Cumbria due to surface water flooding. Parts of Wales were also notably wet during

observations of the weather in the London area and is credited with having first discovered the concept of the urban heat island, where night time temperatures in the cities do not fall as low as those in the countryside. He attributed this to the numbers of coal fires burning in close proximity
