Sea surface temperatures off the northeast coast of England and to the west of Ireland were 3 to 4C above normal, a Met Office analysis has found.

"The North Atlantic is experiencing record-breaking temperatures at present," Professor Stephen Belcher, the Met Office chief scientist, said. Prof Belcher said an anomaly map for current sea surface temperatures in the North Atlantic, which compares current measurements with the average over a long-term period, showed"some areas really stand out".
