12:15 got a temp reading of 18.1°C here. Past few days, the temp's peaked at 13:00/13:30~ish, so might be possible for a 19 (at a push 20?)

Looking interesting for mid March Posted Image Earlier you metioned a contrast between March 2013 & 2014! Well March this year could be a month of two halfs.

Looking at the GFS'Ensembles there's plenty of members around the -8 to -10 mark !Posted Image

Perhaps but Steve Jackson of Bablake School, Coventry going for a rather cloudy, chilly feeling week for there:

 

'Highs of 17C expected today, but cooler in the week ahead, more like 12C - still fine & dry frost at night, feeling cool by day under cloud.'

My lawns still in the drying out de-bogging phase, little fresh growth as yet.
