If you zoom in a bit then you find the map is becoming very patchy with a few areas misbehaving and still having large numbers.However, looking at the daily map, London is mainly light blue or green whilst the north is mainly dark blue.

I think the darker blue average further north is due the remains of the cold weather spell, since it warmed up again the numbers have been accelerating downwards again with the warmer south leading.
It is actually low humidity, not temperature, that is the trigger, which you get either when you turn the heating on due to cold weather, or turn the aircon on due to hot weather, hence UK having spikes in winter and Texas getting hit back in the summer.Humidity may well play a role
It's important that primary schoolchildren don't wear face coverings, says Public Health England's medical adviser Dr Susan Hopkins."
But it might be too hot to wear your rubber suit!As any fall / winter / spring i am the one rooting for a tropical summer, even if i moan a bit if my wish pan out.
same pattern everywhere for flu as well, look at the trends on any country over a period of years and they all peak in the colder monthsThe curve here flattened totally over the summer, and then picked up again in the fall.

the pattern for the last 12 months has still followed the same trend everywhere, doesn't mean you can't catch it in summer if that's how people interpret it, but it does have a bigger impact during the colder monthsPeople keep comparing COVID to influenza but they don't seem to behave in quite the same way. As I mentioned earlier it may take several years of study before seasonal patterns, if any, are fully understood.
