It's that time of year again. I reckon my region of east London and
Essex is in for a winter over 1C below average with average to
slightly below precipitation.

Forecast mean: 4.2C (result: 5.5C)
Forecast rain: 'slightly below' (result: 126.9mm 1981-2010 144.3mm)

In summary the rainfall wasn't bad but the actual type I envisaged was
way milder in reality. One for the bin I think!


If only December and February had been like January you'd have been
spot-on.
