It's quite staggering the difference in max temp between Northern England and Southern England (7C in Halifax vs almost 11 in Barton-on-Sea). You'd expect some difference but not that much; on a global scale, the difference in latitude is negligible.

Halifax is seasonable whereas Barton is very mild, yet both appear to have had the same airmass. Seems to happen an awful lot these days. It seems to be constantly mild in the south in an Atlantic setup, whether or not Tm is present - while the north has the mildness more restricted to Tm airmasses.

The difference is we are in the Pennine hills.Even more amazing is where i used to live at 340metres just a few miles from here it is between 2 and 3 degrees colder than here in the valley all year around.Yet if you get out of the hills say Leeds or Manchester it is also a degree or two warmer than here and just an hour down the road you have Doncaster which often gets temps like southern Britain,the warmest place in the North.

Interesting info, thanks. Amazing that an altitude of just 340m, which isn't as high as all that by northern England standards, makes such a difference. Even down in Surrey there is a summit which manages 295m, not so much lower than that, and the highest point of the Cotswolds is around 330m.
