What about 1980? Also how about 1985 - I thought that was the year
when the maximum temperature (of just below 30C) was in October.


Hi Nick,

Thanks for pointing out 1980, the annual max was 29.4 at Cors Fachno
(Dyfed) however 1985 did exceed 30C. 30.1 at St Louis (Jersy). The
hot spell in early October you refer to, which I recall well, saw
March (Cambs) record an all time October high of 29.4 on the 4th.

Cheers,

Ian.
