The late autumn mild spell is set to deliver one of the warmest October days on record, with temperatures in some parts of the country predicted to rise to 23C on Thursday.
The trouble is, record-beating climate conditions seem to crop up with such remarkable frequency these days, it's almost easy to be blase about such things.

Mercury rising

What a remarkable day it was in the UK today. Walking around in t-shirts coming up to November. I wonder why bees and flowers etc are coming into bloom 3 weeks before spring these days...
Greetings from Brookside. Yes it sure is pleasant. KC weather is famously freakish but I was wondering if living under the "jet alley" transcontinental air corridor might have greater effect on the microclimate than we imagine. Visualize the tons of water vapor being dumped right up there day and night. Maybe there's a local greehouse eh?
Send some of that weather here! New England has been getting November in October this year. We went from a long spell of too hot to the current spell of relentless cold and cloudy with periods long rain. Usually October (along with May) is one of the pleasantest (fairly sunny and mild) months of the year. Ah, Im afraid that this, this also is the sad result of GW. (Aha! I just realized that the acronym for Global Warming is also the first two initials of.... Coincidence or...?)
