Wonder how UK average temp for April will pan out. Got to be one of the colder Aprils on record.

Met Office full of it as usual. Down here in the SW I still had the heating on throughout April and normally it goes off whatever.

Same in the North east, today was the first time it didn't fire up, set at 18°C, but if you look at the met office Web site its obvious what their agenda is.

So?

For England, April av temps (1991-2020) are:

mean max temp - 13C
mean min temp - 4.1C

For this April

mean max temp - 13C
mean min temp - 5.5C.

The mean min temp of 5.5C was the sixth warmest for April in the record back to 1890

Because you were a bit chilly on a couple of occasions in April the Met Office is corrupt? I think the true believer is plain to see.

No, they have been corrupt since they they signed up to climate change and forgot that they are a weather forecasting business, they have regularly got the weather spectacularly wrong, barbecue summer anyone....
My energy bills for April confirmed it was colder than average, for the met office to claim otherwise is strange because by their data we must have had lots of colder April's than the last, we had sleet and snow and temperatures in single figures and II don't remember been stuck in snow drifts in April.

Another one with anecdotal evidence. Bravo.

You appear to be using your thermostat and the current price of energy per KWh to determine the UK climate for April.

I'll leave you to it.

The 1991-2020 reference period indeed contains many colder aprils obviously, particularly in the early part



Year to year variability is clearly high - too much for personal perceptions from memory to keep up with.

Only on Pistonheads can a link to another thread be offered as proof that scientists have got it wrong. These threads are comedy gold. laugh
