Is it possible your max temp today has not yet been reached, if this lot gets to you before midnight? Just a thought. ------------------------------------ I did think that as well Paul - not my true max I know but I thought it would give a good indication of the type of day, certainly coldest during daylight hours since then. Dave Yes, horrid! --------------------- Crept up to 8.1C by midnight. Surprisingly bright and cheery this morning. 12.7C, 10.45am- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Thought it might!

Nick, could you please alter your sig to replace the long line? The divider should be "-- ". This would then be recognised by newsreaders and removed from any replies. Come to think of it, why not create it as a sig and let TB8 do it all for you? Is this better? Already was a sig file in TB8.

George Bernard Shaw It's rather annoying that in such a mild year, the three months that were cool were the three summer months! To be honest I feel that if we are going to have three cool months then I would rather they be in summer. If autumn, winter and spring are mild then it helps to keep the heating bills down, which given the cash-squeezed state of people in the current economic climate can only be a good thing. Cool temperatures in summer are still warm enough to enjoy outdoor activities yet still be able to a) sleep at night and b) be able to enjoy the sunshine without that horrible oppressive energy-sapping heat and humidity. I wonder if the current synoptic setup so far this month had occurred four months earlier we could have been looking at another July 2006. Incidentally I wonder if this year would come close to setting the records for most equable April-October period? In a typical southern England location I'd guess that all of those months had mean maxima in the approximate range 17-20C, compared to 14-23 in a typical year. Nick |

He's not. The graph shows what the CET is up to now, there is no forecast/projection as to what it will actually be for November as a whole. I interpreted the horizontal lines of the graph as showing the CETs for November as a whole (as is clearly the case for the rainfall and sunshire graphs). If so, the graph shows the highest CET for November as a whole. Comparison with the actual temperatures for the first half of this November doesn't show the November CET in record territory - for that you'd need the historical CETs for the first half of November. Comparing the CET for the first half of November with the CET for the whole of November is comparing apples with oranges. Now that we've had another few days of seasonally warm weather, and a projection of it continuing for the next few days, it's more reasonable to start speculating about a record. -- Stewart Robert Hinsley |
