UK Weather and Climate

The British climate is temperate, with no extremes of temperature and rainfall. Winters are usually fairly mild under the influence of the Gulf Stream, while summers are neither oppressively hot nor frustratingly cool. The average annual temperature is about 10°C, with a summer and winter average of approximately 15°C and 5°C respectively. The British climate is dominated by the tracks of frontal depressions which form in the Mid-Atlantic and pass across into Europe, bringing rain and frequent bad spells of weather.
