Some Weather Stuff for a Change

Monday turned out to be another lovely March day with dawn to dusk sunshine. The forecast is for the weather to continue much the same all the way through to the beginning of next week, but with varying amounts of cloud.

Although it’s been sunny and felt very spring like in the sunshine, the actual temperature hasn’t been all that high. The warmest day of the month so far was Saturday 12 March when it reached 13.3°C (55.9°F). Strangely the record for the mildest day of the year so far, is held by 24 January 2016 with 14.7°C (58.5°F).
March so far has been fairly cool as recent previous March records show with only 2013 having a lower average temperature. Hopefully a decent end to the month will see the average temperature rise up a little towards the monthly average.
It’s also worth noting that the averages temperatures for December and January were higher than that for March to date and there’s very little difference between February and March. Seems like a mild winter followed by a cold start to spring.
