As your figures are taken from the Hampstead weather station, readings in central London should be slightly higher. Mild winters with no snow lovely.

Does anyone have any relatively reliable long range forecasts for summer? We will be there in late June to Mid July and are considering London / Jersey / New Forest area, BUT if it will be an unusually warm / dry year we'd consider Scotland. Just curious...

Try this. You can see quite a bit without logging in. https://weather.lgfl.org.uk/

I still have Geraniums (pelagonium) plants in flower that have survived outside through the winter. Normally around November/December they are killed of by frost. I have already cut my lawns this years, as have the local council in the public parks. After so much rain I await for the summer drought! Although if the jet stream continues to stay nearly over the UK we may have a wetter summer again.

Check out the number of days a wind gust over 40mph was recorded. 3 between August 2009 and 27/10/13, 9 since.....

Cheers Andrew - I've now added some wind gust data to today's post.

And Antipodean - there is no such thing as a reliable long range forecast for the UK.

Does anyone have relatively reliable long range forecasts for next weekend?

I've missed having no snow. I wonder when the last time that happened was?

To be fair I did say 'relatively reliable'... but I guess I'll play it by ear.

Antipodean, not sure what you plan to do in Scotland - countryside or city sites. In any case, a long range weather forecast will be useless as it is quite possible to have 4 seasons in a day.

Mmmm I get that, re four seasons, it is just that I vividly recall the trip to Wales, in July, where it poured every single day. I know that is par for the course, I'd just rather avoid it if I can. We do some 'city' tourism, but mostly we like the outdoors. I did a lovely walk in Scotland, round conic hill way, just out of Glasgow, and I'd like to do similar things on a trip back, as well as see some of the archaeology and at least one island. Whisky may feature there somewhere too, but I don't want to spend the whole time choosing between drowning and drowning sorrows :).
