ABSTRACT
Previous work has shown that environment affects SARS-CoV-2 transmission, but it is unclear whether emerging strains show similar responses. Here we show that lineage B.1.1.7 spread with greater transmission in colder and more densely populated parts of England. We also find evidence of B.1.1.7's transmission advantage at warmer temperatures versus other strains, implying that spring conditions may facilitate B.1.1.7's invasion in Europe and across the Northern hemisphere, undermining the effectiveness of public health interventions.
