A new UK record high temperature has been set in the Scottish Highlands, according to provisional figures from the Met Office.

28th January 2024, 10:31 EST

"It recorded a peak of 19.6C (67.3F) at #Kinlochewe on Sunday, making it hotter than Rome and the Cote d'Azur.

"If confirmed it would be the highest January temperature in the UK, breaking a record set in 2003 by more than a full degree celsius.

"It would also be the highest winter temperature ever recorded in Scotland

"While enjoying mild temperatures the village was also subject to a yellow wind warn on Sunday, with gusts in excess of 40mph forecast. In the Western Isles a gust of 71mph was recorded."

Another absolutely astonishing and alarming temperature record set today, with the warmest January day in UK history at #Kinlochewe, at 19.6C (67.3F), smashing the previous record by a scarcely believable 1.3C (2.3F).

Even more worrying is even though a Foehn was forecast before time, in the #MetOffice video forecasts I saw, they made clear that despite it being unseasonably warm, that it would not be a record. Yet it's been totally smashed.
