Finally found some to catch up on this and have realised a two-pronged error has occurred, first on my side then seemingly in my CET estimate listed for this month, unless I made a typo in the message I sent.
So here it is - I meant to predict just under 0.3°C below the 1991-2020 average, but somehow got my reference point wrong and went for a seriously chilly (for the time of year) 15.53°C, about 1.3°C below average. This I accept can't be reasonably overturned now, so I'll take that hit, but in the listed CET estimates it says an even lower 15.33°C.
In other words, as far as I'm aware, I was 0.2°C closer to the final CET. Alas, still much further out than I would have been had I been paying better attention to what I was doing. I honestly logged in today expecting to look back on a much needed great result for this month, only around 0.1°C out. Must admit, I'm pretty cross with myself right now. How did I not even realise that mid-15s is pretty low for July?
Ah well, all I can do is carry on and hope for some kind of astonishing recovery in the remaining months.
