The provisional Hadley figures finished at 15.18C which is the same as August

The final data after month end adjustments is currently only available to the 29th so we are missing one day. Hopefully this will be rectified shortly http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/hadobs/hadcet/cet_mean_2014

If we take the final data for the first 29 days and the provisional for the final day this gives a CET of 15.08C. So it looks like we will end up at 15.1C and higher than the August CET.

Congratulations to Saint Snow with a prediction of 15.1C which was spot on to 1 decimal place. The figure CET finished at 15.08C.

Here are the charts for September

CET annual competition - September update

Darren S has extended his lead this month at the top of the table while Gusty just about holds on to second place. There are a number of people continuing to climb up into the top 10 reaching their highest position of the year. marting is up four places this month to sixth, Saint Snow is up eight to 8th, wallaw up four to 9th and Edicius81 up two to 10th. At the other end of the table vince is once again propping us up after he failed to make a prediction in September.

So it's official then that September has finished warmer than August...15.08 to 14.95

That's only the 3rd time since 1900 along with 1956 and 2006. Another amazing stat in this incredible few years of weather...where will it all lead?

Just a small suggestion if I may, would it be possible to file the monthly CET threads into a separate file for ease of access? eg It took me a while to find the August CET thread to get the final figures.

Cheers

Brilliant stuff, GW - enormous thanks for you putting in so much time & effort to run this fantastic competition.

Not doing to bad this year. Good stuff GW thanks again.

Thanks for all the stats GW, much appreciated.

Thanks GW! 

Only 0.1c out and I still only managed to climb 2 places.  Hopefully this month I might make it onto the next table up.  This really is a tough year to call. 

Cheers GW.

Thanks GW, that might be as good as it gets, i think i've gone a little high for October.

Great stats and analysis as ever
