I agree with you Norman. Mild should only be used in the months NDJFMA. The trouble is that convention has been totally forgotten by the same presenters that now use the phrase. "sprinkles" for a light shower. In the past a January day was described as mild, very mild or exceptionally mild when more often or not these days it's termed as warm. My problem is that I'm just an old fuddy-duddy and stuck in the past and reluctant to change, and why for most of the time watch the weather on TV with the volume muted!
