Well spotted Col!

In Coventry, our data also shows this trend from last May.

Looking back through our records to 1892, this hasn't been expereinced
before.

8 months was the highest sequence before this from March to October
1894, and February to September 1934.

John's 1962-63 sereis was spoilt here by June 1962 which was warmer
than June 1961 by the looks of it.

Mind you this was a tedious exercise!!
