Looking very mild and rather excellent next weekend on the current charts.. The first taste of spring for many, if they achieve outcome. How mild? A possibility of the UK date record of 15.9C being threatened if the 00z gfs chart is the one we see in a week's time. I'm not saying that's what will happen, but the likelihood of having dry and warmer than average weather on March 8th sits at higher than 80% ATM and IMO.
The date record for 8th March is 21.1°C.
