As we head towards April after yet another very mild month, what will April bring? Will we see an early burst of summer weather, or can't we really say a return to cold, as we have hardly had any but some cold weather? the current model output suggests the continuation of the same warm and wet 😫

As usual, please post predictions by 23:59 on the 31st March 

I will post mine shortly 

My estimate for April is 10.49, another mild and probably wet month I really hope I'm wrong about the wet month though

April looks like starting mild. Will we get a cooler spell at some point?

I'm going for 10.75c

10.4c for me please 

I think April will be more of the same - the CET suggesting quite a mild and pleasant month, but in reality continuing the wet and unsettled theme that feels like it's gone on for eternity now.

So sorry to hear you’re not well. Hope you soon feel better and your tests go well. Best wishes

PS Don’t worry about this competition, we’ll survive. Just concentrate on getting better

I just tried too. Do I need to resend when it is cleared or does my message sit in some overflow mailbox that gets picked up once the Inbox has enough room?

Anyway, I'll post here. 10.3C for me please 🙂

11.75c for me.

Not this month... and even if it were, I'd ignore it and go milder 😉

Nothing too extraordinary, but 9.3c

​​​​​​

Only hope is a s*** or bust high guess. No doubt we'll get a 1986 as a result.

Not a record breaker but hoping for mild nights with this endless train of LPs.

So- 10.44°C for me please.

I'm only missing a couple, so thank you all for posting on the topic thread. I will PM the missing couple, as they may have tried or thought it had gone through. 

Thanks all. 

I found it did delete the messages if you selected a few at a time but the confirmation screen did not always show the correct number.

For example if you selected 2 to delete, it would delete them both but then confirm it had deleted only 1 message.

Hope you are feeling better 

I wonder if it's possible for Brian to increase the capacity in your PM library. Other messageboard software does allow this.
