Britain has hottest October day on record

01 October 2011 18:48 (UTC +04:00)

Britain has experienced the hottest October day on record. National weather service the Met Office says Saturday’s temperature reached 85.8 F (29.9 C) at Gravesend in southeast England, APA reports quoting Associated Press.

That is the highest October temperature since records began a century ago, beating the previous high of 84.9 F (29.4 C) reached on Oct. 4, 1985.

The average maximum temperature for early October is about 59 F (15 C).

After a cool and wet summer, much of Britain has been basking in several days of sun and unseasonably high temperatures. Forecasters say cooler temperatures should return by Tuesday.
