bbc says its 21c in Oulu, Finaldn which is really up north (northern Finland)
nice contrast between cold west and warm east today. how i wish the sides would swap
Yes, this situation is now since a few days, but seem to be accentuated. The division line of the two air masses seems to be now satying about along a Hambourg/Munich line. The constrast seems very sharp near hambour where at few kilometers (probably less than 50) they swich from about 24°C to 10°C !!
Here, 16°C at 14H30, still below the average. It has been more than two weeks that we have been below those averages.
Concerning the "green" temepratures in central Spain, we do not have to forget that not all Spain has a mediterranean climate, it is not only a question of latitude; but it is not surprising that the central plateaus of Castillas (which made most of inalnd Spain) has quite a important altitude and is quite isolated from the regularing influences of the mediterranean area (those plateaus are cutted to the seas by montaine ranges). For the same reasons, these areas can be very hot in summer.
The first map is crazy, Spain is extremely cold for the time of year. It's like January in Andalucia, Madrid must be awful too!
It's got be the West's turn for some heat soon!
