  1. 6.1 and hope for something better - still the main thing is that we have some dry weather.
  2. The fat lady hasn't sung yet but she's warming up, at least as far as next weekend goes. The odds are stacked against there is still hope as long as the UKMO 00z hangs onto the cold spell.
  3. 15.1, yet another dismal summer month </reverse psychology>
  4. Never thought looking for some sunshine and heat in FI would become as desperate as winter FI-watching
  5. 16.4 for me please, in keeping with the run of near-average months. Sorry for late entry!
  6. Another cold first half of Feb scuppered. On the plus side my guess will be very close!
  7. Was hoping to be able to make a sub-0C guess, ah well not to be. 4.1C please.
  8. Continuing the warm theme... 15.1C for me please
  9. Do I hear goalposts being shifted? There is less tendency to deviate from the maximum in winter but very large scope for deviation from the minimum. Temperatures of around -15C are a bigger deviation from the average minimum (in England at least) than just about any record high temperature in the summer. And yet such temperatures were recorded quite widely in December. Assuming the average is around 1-2C, this represents a difference of 16-17C from the average. We've only seen that kind of deviation from the max in summer on two or three occasions (I'm thinking August 1990 and 2003). Of course even lower minima were experienced widely in Highland Scotland.
  10. 9.1C for me please. How's that for beating the deadline?
  11. I will go even further back than Mr Data SF on 28 Feb 2007 on the thread 'Are we still capable of getting a <1c CET month?' This quote really stuck in the memory and a quick search through the archives confirmed it.
  12. In these post-modern winters it seems the synoptics for an above 3C month have to be just right. We almost managed it in February but fell just short. You have to wonder if we'll ever see one again.... I think we will fall just short of the milestone at 2.8C
