Long range weather forecasts in The Daily Express - Review 3

So, December - the average maximum temperature for December was 10.02 C, compared to an average of 7.76 C between 2005-2013 (and incidentally warmer than the average maximum of 10.01 C for November!). The average minimum was 4.54 C, compared to an average of 2.91 C between 2005-2013. The highest maximum was 13.30 C (compared to an average extreme of 12.36 C), and the lowest minimum was 1.20 C (compared to an average extreme of -2.94 C). So the month was much warmer than average. So no big freeze at all, although the succession of storms means it's been a bit windier than normal.
