*Data from before 2009 are mostly from the historical site at Whitestone Pond in Hampstead. Where data from that record is missing, other nearby sites were used, including St James Park, Heathrow, and Kew Gardens (pre-1910). Best efforts have been made to adjust for site differences, but uncertainties are somewhat greater for this data. I am grateful to the Met Office for making this data available for free through the MIDAS Open database.

Air-temperature extremes for each calendar day run midnight to midnight (local time), when daily extremes are reset. Night minimum (21–09) and day maximum (09–21) use those fixed windows instead.

Notes

  • Station temperature records began on 1st Jan 2009. A long-term series from nearby sites is available from 1881 (use Start year above).
  • Figures in brackets refer to departure from average conditions
  • An air frost requires the overnight (21-09) temperature to fall below freezing
  • All figures, unless specified, relate to the period midnight-midnight, this being when daily extremes are reset.
Definition of 'Feels-like' temperature: This displays either the Wind Chill index or the 'Humidex', depending on the temperature and humidity. These indices are attempts to depict what the air actually feels like on a human's skin - either from the warming effect of high humidity, or the cooling effect of the wind. However, they have little physical meaning and their valid use is debatable, so are provided for interest only.
