For much of the UK, it hasn't felt much like winter is coming — or even that autumn is well underway.
The last couple of months have been marked by exceptionally warm and mild weather across much of Western Europe, due to the effects of climate change which also saw Britain have its hottest day on record in July.
Last week saw both the warmest Armistice Day and Remembrance Sunday on record, with highs of 20C and 21.2C respectively — staggering temperatures for mid-November.
