UK weather: June nights could be coldest since records began as summer takes tim

[Mark]

June is on course to be the coldest month in 24 years - with the coldest nights since records began.

Instead of sitting in a beer garden enjoying a cool gin and tonic as the sun goes down, Brits have spend this month huddling inside and wondering where they put their winter coats.

So it comes as no surprise that the Met Office has said this June is on course to be the coldest summer month for 24 years.

And freezing after dark temperatures could mean June nights are the coldest since records began 105 years ago.

The UK's average temperature from June 1-15 was 11.2C, which is 1.8C below normal.



An average temperature over the whole month below June 2012's 12.3C would make this the coldest summer month since June the average of 10.9C reached in June 1991.



The UK's minimum temperature from June 1-15 was 6.6C which is 2.2C below usual.
