The cet area seems to be one of the coolest areas in Britain this month which is quite unusual. High pressure seemed to rest just far enough north to bring them cool easterlies mid month! The cet could quite easily have been in the 6's with little change in the positioning.

This March has been quite a miserable month in my part of the country. A big disappointment really.

Sorry for the delay. Here are the March predictions

Here are the latest charts for March. Currently looking like a 5.7C finish. So quite a bit below average but still higher than January and February.

Thank You GW for the charts..

Looking back to January and here are the highest temperatures for each day in January this year. We saw 2 date records including a 17.0C at Prestatyn on the 25th. One of the highest January temperatures ever and part of a consecutive 4 day spell of very high maximums.

I agree the CET does seem a little low compared to my local temperatures, although it could be that just one of the CET localities has been lower than the others and has brought the overall average down.

Looks like I've guessed the wrong side of right again this month.  At least I've been consistent this year.

It's been pretty constant for the past few days and still below average.  Let's hope April warms things up a bit.

Looks like I should do OK on this one.

I have to say its turned out to be a chilly month in many ways.

A cool start to spring after such a mild winter! Looks like a 5.6,5.7 finish I think. I wonder what corrections will be though

Here is the daily summary of maximum temperatures for February. No date records this month.

We had 5 days where the temperature exceeded 14C somewhere in the UK.

The warmest temperature of the month was 16.1C at Denver in Norfolk.

My current estimates suggest the March CET will finish at 5.7C. This is 4.0C lower than the December 2015 CET.

In the history of the CET since 1659 there has only been one other year where the March CET was at least 4C lower than the December figure. This was in 1853 when the March CET was 3.4C and the December 1852 CET was 7.7C. So the March CET was 4.3C lower than December.

That's quite an astonishing fact - wow!

and many refer to March as a spring month most years spring in the uk arrives sometime in April
