So begins the final push. Temps didn't fall too low last night and today looks good for mid-20s maximums widely, hopefully far north enough for the CET region to average about that.
Then we have tomorrow, which I wonder if might produce one of the largest last-day-of-month CET climbs on record - but still only by two or three tenths. There's only so much you can do when competing with 30 days averaging much lower!
I wonder if the true CET can possibly make it to 16°C?
I've noticed Pershore doing pretty well for temps in recent days - but not so for the other two locations further north and east. The warmer temps just haven't quite made it far enough in that direction, frustratingly for the 16+ club.
August approaches. Now we have the opposite signal to July - much warmth in the modelling for the first half, but suggestions to be found in the 'background drivers' that this will find it hard to sustain much past that.
Unfortunately, a huge fail of long-range probability forecasting one month in no way precludes the same occurring the next month, so again there's the conundrum of 'to trust or not to trust?'.
