Odd bits and pieces of stats that jump out initially from the finalised figures The night of the 13th was the first sub-zero May night in the CET zone since 1996, the coldest May night (equally with 2 in 1979) since 1967 and the 26th (I think) example of a sub-zero May night since 1878 - equal 15th coldest May night in that series (bear in mind this was on a scan through, I might have missed one or two) The 12th was the coldest May day since 1997, so coldest of the 21st Century so far. Conversely, whilst the individual 18.1 of the 23rd has been beaten fairly recently, the heatwave of 21-24 had 4 consecutive days in excess of 17 degrees - the first tme since 1989 that May has produced such a heatwave (ironically also on the 21-24 of that month and also with a 17,17,18,17 type return)
