I know March was months ago. But I’m playing around with a new report and I thought I would look at TMax data for HADCET (Central England Temperature). TMax data is only available since 1878.
23 out of the 31 days were colder than the warmest day (since 1878) by double digits. March 23rd was 18.6C colder than the warmest March 23rd.
