  1. Weather: Warm, sunny with not a cloud in the sky, and in no way excessively warm as there is quite a cool breeze. Perfect.

    Temperature: 15.5c

    Wind: East 13mph

    Pressure: 1028hPa

    Visibilty: 10km

    Humidity: 73%

    Sunset: 19:32

  2. I think its safe to say the low minima during the clear spells such as during the second week have kept the March CET down to more "respectable" levels. Because for some days during daylight hours it was a different story! Jan 07 has a similar CET but the daytime max was nowhere as high, one assumes the minima kept the CET up then.

  3. It looks like the low night minima is what is keeping the March CET relatively sane so far!

    It's a reverse to when you get a mostly cool overcast summer month that ends up being average or even above. It has nothing to with the maximum temperature, the cloud that keeps the temperature higher at night is what gives off the susprising figures. August 2006 and summer 2004 as examples.

  4. I have voted for an above average March because, like any other month it is above average!

    However I have decided against voting "much" above average because officially March isn't a winter month... and the winter months are usually the "much" above average!

    I have also decided not to take a guess at the CET for March as I am still learning about the CET for the spring, summer and autumn months. You really do never stop learning!

    Incidentally has anyone got the official CET for Dec 05 Jan 06 and Feb 06 ??

  5. I thought I was aiming "high" with 5.5c but even then the sky high figures never cease to amaze me! I actually guessed that it would start of high but get slightly reduced towards the end of the month, instead it was the other way round!!

  6. Oh dear, looks like the CET is going in only one direction! and thats towards the sky!

    Oh well my prediction of 5.5c may have held some truths, although it will probably get higher, but I think it should just about be lower than January's CET.

  7. I little review of what happened in WBSHland today!

    04:00, no snow, (according to mother!) 06:30 I wake up and all of a sudden it’s there! About a few centre metres and still snowing. -07:15 I leave the house, snow turning light and a bit sleety, with already first signs of thawing. Around 08:00 I’m on the bus and snow gets heavy again. At 09:00 it’s chucking it down fast with huge flakes! At 10:00 it’s turned to sleet and rain before at 10:30 turning to big snow flakes again! At 10:35 it’s more or less stopped and by 12:00 the sun has started to come out! By 15:00 most of the snow has thawed and by 17:00 I am walking home and it’s raining on and off again and you wouldn’t have known it had snowed at all! Bar a few patches of sluDoh a dumb swear filter got the better of me

  8. Maybe a little early, but my CET predicton for January looks to be quite close and I took a wild guess at that so I will do the same for this.

    Sadly I expect another above average one, but lower than December and January, so my guess is 5.5c , I feel that my guess will be valid untill the last week of Feb, when I predict that maybe my "inflated" guess will fall flat on it's face! :D:D

  9. For me it was rubbiDoh a dumb swear filter got the better of me The last two mornings I have woken up to some really pathetic dustings of snow, actually they were barely dustings, more like chunks of frozen ice!

    However, as soon as I left Maidstone the "snow force field" that usually hangs around me wore off. Today in the morning for instance I was at Bedgebury forest and a few centre metres of snow had fallen, which although wasn’t a great deal, it looked great amongs the scenery. I took some pics, i'm glad I went there at the right time!
