I used the 61-90 average because I was discussing years going back well into the 20th century. If someone is only mentioning the last 2 years, then fair enough, use the most recent 30 year mean. But when discussing a range of decades, there little point in using the mildest 30 year period on record for meaningful comparisons.

Surely that is relevant - if months are now coming in well below the last thirty year average it is bucking the ever upwards trend we are told to expect.

Best not to get into discussing trends in weather here, our posts will get binned!

Perhaps I should have used the 20th century average instead for a fairer comparison?
