Let's sincerely hope that 2012 is not going to be as boring a year in
southern England as 2011 was.


Spring and autumn were pretty interesting. But of course being
"intermediate" seasons they are never going to be as dramatic as winter
and summer can be.


Spring http://www.sennen-cove.com/ts06.htm (March 10th 2008)
Autumn http://www.turnstone-cottage.co.uk/PzStorm.PDF (Oct 2004)

Pretty dramatic!


You're right of course. The October Storm of 1987 in the SE is another
example, as is the great blizzard in the SW in March, 1891. I was
thinking of temperature when I wrote that, but shouldn't have been so
sweeping.
