March CET

[Soaring Hawk]

6.1 for me please.

[BARRY]

Well i think 4.2 i know totaly ga ga :lol: :lol:

[Stu_London]

5.9C for me

Cool start - warmer in the last 10 days - but no heatwaves

[DAVID SNOW]

7.0............. Ty......... :lol:

[Roger J Smith]

7.7 for me, looking for a few rather cold days here and there but also a big warm-up after the 20th which may involve some real spring heat as the month ends. So this 7.7 might evolve out of a general 6'ish CET up to the 20th. Might even snow once in that mid-month cold spell. So quite a mixed bag of weather, typical for March.

[Anti-Mild]

6.6c for me please.

[ukmoose]

5.9 for me for March please. Looking pretty much a west to north west flow as things stand. Colder than Jan and Feb (by day anyway)?

Thanks,

Moose

PS Did I miss the coldest nights of the winter ( for the south) last week while I have been in the Alps?

[summer blizzard]

I relaise that some of you are punting very low (around 2C below average), however i am not sure where your faith is coming from, aside from a few ramps on the model thread, personally, i'm actually considering revising my prediction upward, to between 7.7C and 8.3C.

[Mammatus]

Cool and wet start before pressure rises from the southwest giving a warm and sunny end to March with temperatures approaching 20C. The last week of march will be very Spring-like.

7.9C

[snowmackem]

I,ll stick my neck out and go against the grain with an 8.1 please.

[Kentish Man]

The La Nina Marches of 1975 and 1976 were 4.8C. Global warming and higher SSTs have added nearly 1C on those values since then so I'll go for 5.6C as my punt.

[Jonnie G]

March can be a wintry month, and in this year without a winter I very much hope that it will be, but realistically I think I will go for a mild 7.2C please.

[Norrance]

6.9C for me. Some coolish and changeable weather but no extended cold or frequent frosts so very slightly above average.

ps No real heat either though.

[RedShift]

07.5 please

[Scorcher]

The La Nina Marches of 1975 and 1976 were 4.8C. Global warming and higher SSTs have added nearly 1C on those values since then so I'll go for 5.6C as my punt.

I'll take a cold March if it leads to a summer like 1976! And I remember March 2006 was pretty cold and look what that summer produced. I doubt there is any correlation but it's interesting.

[North-Easterly Blast]

I will say that March 1975 was a weak La Nina phase, certainly not the strong phase like this present one. You are right with 1976 as that followed a strong La Nina winter.

[Shunter]

In keeping with the La Nina theme I will go for 6.4C. This will also ( if verified ) be the eleventh consecutive month where the monthly CET falls below its corresponding number in the previous year.

[jimben]

A little above average at 6.9c

[reef]

Im sticking with the value in my annual forecast.

I expect an Atlantic based mild and wet month though turning more anticyclonic by the end.

7.5C

[JohnAcc]

7.0 please

[kold weather]

I'm going to have to raise my CET, I think I will raise it upto 7.1C, so above average but still not stupidly above. Fist 3-5 days do look a little on the cool side but the models are suggesting the atlantic to come back after that which willno doubt raise the CET somewhat again.

[AtlanticFlamethrower]

6°C

[Don]

Ok, my CET estimate for March is 6.8C.

A cool start with a mild second half.

[BLAST FROM THE PAST]

Reasonably average temps for early part of the month getting colder as we approach midmonth cold spell. There could be warmth for the last week or so but will it get scuppered like last weekend which shiowed much promise with +5c 850s very near by but it stayed rather chilly. In view of that it will be enough for a below average month so

5.7c
