Philip has the November CET in record territory:

http://www.climate-uk.com/graphs/201111.htm

It's a bit early to be counting that clutch of chickens.

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.
