Default October CET records


Looking at this table

http://www.climate-uk.com/graphs/200410.htm

This is interesting. The current October is almost on normal track now. The
CET range for October is from 13.3C which was 2001 to just 5.3C which was in
1740.

That record low of 5.3C, does anyone have any idea from historical records
of course what that must have been like? 5.3 is a normal winter month not a
mid autumn one.
I must also point out that the winter that year in 1740 was a real bone
shatterer. It was colder than 1963 and it seems most of that year was very
cold indeed. I still cannot imagine a CET of just over 5 in October.
