  1. anyone else wondering why the CET is stil registering above 9c? Ok Saturday was warm, but my local weather station in South Northants was on 8.6c on Sat and is now on 8.4c, and this is in the southern half of the CET zone. Doesnt seem to compute with me that the CET is still showing up above 9c, I am expecting a big downward correction at end of the month.
  2. I would say Lampeter in mid Wales, or Lancaster. Lancaster is outside the town on the edge of the Forest of Bowland, land 1500ft high, often snowy in winter. Even if there is no snow on campus there could be within a few miles, also Lancaster is within easy reach of Lake District and Yorkshire Dales.
  3. for me it depends on what I am doing! If I am just going about my every day business then im ok up to about 23c I would say, can manage ok in mid 20's but 26c above would generally be too hot. If I am doing something more active like mowing the lawn the the mid teens would be nice. Also depends on the type of weather, if there is a nice breeze then I can tolerate warmer temps. I live smack bang in the middle of central England which is pretty nasty on hot summers days, humid and sticky, no wind and warm overnight, its actually the overnight temperatures that I dislike more than the daytime. As others have said, the cold temperatures are not so much of a problem, decent clothing should always be good enough to keep you warm in this country.
  4. Accordong to the Met office it was -327.7. So I was slightly out with my guess. Funny, I thought it was fairly mild but the statistics never lie! Month CET Anomaly notes January 5.7 1.9 February 6.2 2.4 March 7.6 2.0 April 10.2 2.3 May -327.7 -338.8 June 14.3 1.5 provisional, to the 1st
  5. THe CET for JUNE will be 15.5c THe CET for JUNE will be 15.5c
  6. I like Mountains and beaches, summer temps up to aroung 25c, not above 30c frequently Winter cool with snow on mountains. Probably somehwere like British Columbia not too far from coast. Or Seattle area, but not in the city. That or the Maritime Alps of France / Italy. Not far too coast or too Skiing in the mountains.
  7. Nevis Range have said that they currently have more snow then at any point in the history of the resort! The Goose gully is full to the rafters with ski anywhere conditions, getting onto a mile width. At its depest point they reckon the snow in the gully is getting onto 60ft deep. General cover of 3.6m on upper runs and 1.6m on lower runs. The season will last well into the summer and beyond at this rate!
  8. BBC ramping up ice cover http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-25383373
  9. Manley seems to have it down as 13.85c MEt office not updated yet.
  10. not had it on yet, been chilly last few evenings though, 17.5 - 18.5c in the lounge, fleece on and still a bit chilly, resisted the heating though! Had a couple of cold nights at 7 or 8 degrees when it has felt cold getting into bed! Usually resist the heating until October unless the missus cant tolerate it any more!
