They just said on the evening news, that this has been the coldest march in Scotland since 1962. I do hope it warms up here soon, as my early potatoes are supposed to be planted in about a week.

Hi Whl.
----------------------------------------Yep 1962 average 2.8C we're at 3C for March 2013 but there's still time  http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/hadobs/hadcet/cet_info_mean.html March 2013 has (so far) got the joint 20th lowest average temperature in Central England for the last 354 years alongside 1675,1684,1693, and 1709 So currently the coldest March in the last 51 years (which makes it the coldest March I've experienced...just )2.6C below the 1961-90 March Average The year to date 1.15C below the 1961-90 average We can rely on the politicians to not let a bit of reality get in the way of their plans though. The "it's warming...alarmingly!" meme will continue unabated Unlike the actual warming Dave  [Edit 3 times, last edit by David Autumns at Mar 30, 2013 12:13:03 PM] |

Oh marvelous
----------------------------------------http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/newsbysect...h-poll-tax-on-energy.html I think we in the UK should all be paying more Tax on our energy because of the alarming warming we are all suffering from. Our energy in the UK is just so unbelievably cheap when compared to our friends elsewhere around the Globe. There might be a modicum of sarcasm in the paragraph above - see if you can spot it |

With 1 day of March left to go
----------------------------------------Average Central England Temperature for March 2013 2.9C 2.7C below the 1961-1990 average Joint 17th lowest March Temp in the last 354 alongside 1807, 1814 and 1865 The Gas and Electricity Suppliers (+ Her Majesty's Gov) are raking it in as we try to keep warm. Whl. with 1 day to go matching 1962's 2.8C is still very likely links in posts above Dave |

Published today the Alarmists are still going with this
----------------------------------------http://thinkprogress.org/climate/2013/03/31/1...cott-et-al-faq/?mobile=nc  and they still think to claim this is rational demonstrable clear thinking that will be borne out in reality Can you see the anomalous errata in this proposed graph? |

The March 2013 result is in and the average temperature from 2542 NOAA Weather Stations around the Globe was 5.94C
----------------------------------------Jan 2011 1.37C Feb 2011 2.85C Mar 2011 6.93C Apr 2011 12.25C May 2011 16.16C Jun 2011 20.45C Jul 2011 22.83C Aug 2011 22.19C Sep 2011 18.72C Oct 2011 13.50C Nov 2011 8.32C Dec 2011 4.78C Jan 2012 3.26C Feb 2012 3.84C Mar 2012 9.71C Apr 2012 12.45C May 2012 17.32C Jun 2012 20.59C Jul 2012 23.13C Aug 2012 22.11C Sep 2012 18.44C Oct 2012 13.28C Nov 2012 7.97C Dec 2012 4.11C Jan 2013 2.65C Feb 2013 3.50C Mar 2013 5.94C J-D 2011 12.584C F-J 2012 12.745C M-F 2012 12.795C A-M 2012 13.031C M-A 2012 13.048C J-M 2012 13.145C J-J 2012 13.156C A-J 2012 13.180C S-A 2012 13.174C O-S 2012 13.151C N-O 2012 13.133C D-N 2012 13.104C J-D 2012 13.047C F-J 2013 12.995C M-F 2013 12.997C A-M 2013 12.677C Here it is as a forum friendly sized graph that updates hourly  The graph above is (at this moment in time) the result of 50,199,139 individual temperature measurements taken around the Globe since the beginning of 2011  Note: The above is preliminary. I'm still working through the annual audit so that we keep comparing apples with apples. I moved house and jobs early this year hence the delay. We lost ~ 20 weather stations during 2012 so not quite apples with apples at the mo but I'll get there - apologies progress is glacial - It's looking like mid May  Still, a whole load closer to reality than the graph in the post above it!
