  persistently mild and wet it has been, particularly in the south and this is largely due to the influence of Atlantic low-pressure systems bringing a predominant mild, south-westerly flow. This mild, wet theme is also true of winter overall.”  How wet has February been? It was also a wetter than average

• Urban heat forecasts could be enhanced with machine learning

  with citizen observations and urban land cover data to aid the machine learning, allows the temperature forecast to learn from previous events and account for natural and man-made influences on the temperature, which can vary significantly within relatively short distances in cities. Lead author
