, including the Manchester area on the 26th. This was the first time 20 °C had been recorded in the UK in a winter month. The maps below show daily maximum temperatures across the UK from 21 to 27 February, indicating the spatial extent of the warmth. The maps below show daily maximum temperature anomalies

in a belt 200 - 250km wide and 400km long stretching from Anglesey across central, north and Eastern England with outbreaks in areas near Liverpool, Manchester Hull and Bimingham although most were in rural locations. Although most of the tornadoes were only F0 - F1 on the Fujita scale with a few

of Manchester as a post-doctoral research associate. External recognition David was awarded the Institute of Physics Computational Physics Group's annual thesis prize in 2003. This is awarded to the author of the PhD thesis that, in the opinion of the Committee, contributes most strongly

a PhD on 'Entrainment in Clear and Cloudy Boundary Layers', from the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology. Since then, his interests have broadened to include all types of boundary layer and, in particular, the interactions between different physical processes (such as those
