It may not feel like it as we approach the shortest day of the year on Sunday - but 2025 was England's sunniest year ever. The country had clocked up an average of 1,622 hours of sunshine by Monday, according to early Met Office figures. That is comfortably above the previous record of 1,587 hours for the whole of 2003. Across the UK, England had its sunniest year since records began in 1910, while Scotland had its second brightest, and Wales its sixth. #weather #ukweather #sunny
