As we step into July, the statistically warmest month of the year, the question on everyone's mind is: what does the weather have in store for our little corner of the world?
June, for a while, looked like it might post the first below-average month in a long time. However, the last seven days have seen the CET rise by 1.3c, and it's expected to be bang on or fractionally above average. For the second month in a row, we have all gone in the wrong direction. In May, we all predicted too low, and in June, we all predicted too high.

What will July bring? The models are not providing any clear signals, making the forecast for July quite unpredictable. A coolish start is likely, but I suspect warm to hot weather will assert itself during the month. Maybe for a change, it will coincide with the schools breaking up. Who knows? I am going for an uninspiring 16.85c for July.
As always, can I have predictions in by midnight on the 30th of June? Please
regards
Justin
