The west coast of Britain experiences milder temperatures in January primarily due to the influence of the North Atlantic Drift, an extension of the Gulf Stream. This warm ocean current raises air temperatures along the coast, which helps to moderate winter conditions. Additionally, the prevailing westerly winds bring moist, temperate air from the ocean, further contributing to the relatively warm climate in this region compared to other areas of Britain.

Is the west coast warmer than the east coast?

The west coast is milder than the east coast (warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer) because of the California Current that starts from Alaska and runs down the west coast of North America. Gyres and winds that blow from west to east cause this current to happen. Because of this, the ocean moderates temperatures on land (since water has a high specific heat), which is why the west coast never snows in winter and rarely gets above 80 degrees in summer.
