Sorry I haven’t had much chance to post in Januarys forum, January is the peak of self-assessment tax return season, and my accountancy firm has been inundated with people who have left their returns to the last minute.
Moving on in the end we had 29 entries for this year’s Competition in January.
As we look towards to the last month of the winter what will it have in store for us.

Ok so now for some straw clutching for those who prefer their wintry weather in Winter, of the last 15 Januarys since 1970 that had a CET between 5 – 6c (Assuming this January will come in at somewhere in the 5C’s) 5 Februarys were warmer while 10 were colder that the proceeding January.
Not included in that is the biggest monthly switch between January to February which in the reference period I am using being 1970 onwards was 1983 with a balmy 6.7c for January and a distinctly chilly 1.8c for February.
Good luck, please submit entries by 23:59 31st January 2024 I'll post mine on this page at some point over the next couple of days
