Default Cold late winter/Spring on the cards?

Gosh those bitter and raw NE'lies can be cold in Devon in March!


I know what you mean! March 2006 springs to mind, it was perishing, made
your eyes water. Now why do those north easterlies hit us here in Devon so
hard; makes me want to move south.



Low SSTs Nick.

Ah yes just looked up that month. What a good'un.
Mean max. 7.5C (-0.8)
Mean min. 1.8C (-0.9)
10 days with air frost, low min. -5.4C
Lowest max. +2.1C
6 days with snow.
Turned mild after 23rd with no days below 10C then.
I'd settle for another one like that!
