Hols!
April 27, 2014
I’m on holiday in Scotland this week, but having broadband issues at the cottage, so posting will be light and moderation slow (some posts are already scheduled)
I’m in the pub at the mo using their broadband!!! At least it’s an excuse.
I’ll leave you all with a puzzler.
As Rosie pointed out, on the England &sWales Series, Oct-Nov 2000 was wetter than the same period 1929, unlike the figures for UK and England. (Both are wetter than this winter)
Now the puzzle
On the Met Regional Stats, both England &Wales individually are much wetter in 1929 than 2000.
As they are built up differently you would expect some differences, but not so much.
I’M posting on this when I’m back, but any thoughts welcome
Cheers!!!!!!!

Enjoy your break, Paul.
Scotland:-
1. I bet you wish it was affected by Global Warming.
2. I bet you wish that for your holiday’s location & duration, droughts would get worse.

Sorry – multiple re-readings make me think that you were maybe still referring to specific months, not annual figures. In which case you are correct.
Ah too late!
Sorry for delay.
I should have made clear I meant October to dec not annual
