March looking an absolute treat...

December 1997 is another one going back a bit. The brief easterly midmonth had a snowy breakdown.
Its still amazing how that whole spell just fell apart…
-
We seem to have breezy fog here so far today…

offerman Yes I’m not sure why that is as it seems to be happening over lower rather than higher ground
Tomorrow and Monday at least look brighter during the daylight hours. Fingers crossed for sun!

Back in the West Country after a quick trip to Suffolk. Guess what… it’s raining!
Amazed how much rain there is given how high the pressure is!

Just been for a very quick visit to east Anglia and it’s noticeable how more springlike it looks compared to back home in North Somerset. Lots more blossoms out and daffodils. Maybe the benefit of being that bit warmer, drier and brighter.
-
raz.org.rain you mean for the springlike lockdown part or the storminess?
For a variety, I’d probably go for a 2020 too.
-
sorepaw1 seriously? When was that?
The lowest max I got was 16°C on the 31st!
-
Assuming winter has behaved, I like mixed marches too. Cold ones are depressing but warm dry ones aren’t normally good news for summer. A blend of 04 and 05 would suit.
Otherwise, a March 22 or 03 would do just fine.

dr weather Hit the magic 16°C earlier while the sun was out. Proper grim yet again since mid afternoon though.

dr weather Yes Martyn Hicks’ sounds plausible in Bristol but I think that Clevedon one is questionable.
Tomorrow however I think could easily reach those heights if not more as long as it’s not as wet as today.

dr weather My car said the same, but reality was a 13.4°C max.

Weatherman_93 If it were accompanied by blue skies and sunshine, I think more of us would be enamoured by the idea. Having said that, I've never had temperatures that high AND cloud/rain in Feb, so I think it'll be either/or in reality.

SunSean Talking my language! Sunshine is paramount. I think for any true weather enthusiast, February 2019 was interesting. Granted, I am in a part of the country that had a major snowfall early on, thunder during the brief Atlantic spell shortly after, then of course we all know how the rest of the month went!

Thundery wintry showers and it's funny because I remember quite a bit from 2002 but it's almost all bad or unsettled weather - gales in Jan, Feb, Mar & Apr; a lot of rain in May, dreadful first half of July, thunderstorms in early August, washout rugby match in early September, gales and thunderstorms in late October, incessant rain in November, then early snow in December.

Nice to see these synoptics but can't help but feel like yet another garden path is being laid, or something like this will happen:

reef This is reality of how this country is becoming. We're now just getting all the same weather we've always had but for much longer periods of time, and proper cold spells have reduced in number. So it's luck of the draw where the good weather and the bad weather settle.
Oh for a climate of seasonality...

Back to square one today. Sigh…

Catherine91 hardly any daffs here yet but I’d imagine after this balmy week, they’ll be out.
-
Much chillier last night, almost an air frost but not quite. Lovely day today too.
As always, a shame good things never last.

TheOgre I find this quirk is a bit like the warm September / naff winter link. Works a lot of the time, but too many contra examples. Likewise, not all warm Marches lead to poor summers… 2022, 2014 and 2003 come to mind.
Edit: just to add, you rarely get a good March and a good May.

Buzz At least by then you can get decent convective weather out of it. More likely to get thunderstorms than snow from cold synoptics by April/May

In Absence of True Seasons The United Mingdom. The joys of living in southern Mingland.
Here in Somerwet, it's actually not been bad at all today, but next week is already going downhill before it's even begun...

Supposed to have cleared through by now with bright skies but oh no, it’s dull as dishwater again with drizzle.
