OK I know the BBC and the Met Office both inhabit the wacky-world of AGW. Oh and I do realise they've been grossly underestimating Mid-Wales' temperatures over the last couple of weeks ...... but haven't they over compensated a wee bit on the cold side with their maximum temperature for Christmas Day? A day time max of -13C? I do hope Santa has checked the anti-freeze in his reindeer.UPDATE: The Met's all time lowest maximum daytime temperature for Wales was -8C. I recorded a high of -8.7C during the day so I wouldn't have been surprised if the official December record (-5.5C) had been broken. Seems it wasn't. Strange that.
They use the information supplied by the Met Office. The nearest observation point for Llandrindod is Sennybridge. As of 1900hrs it was reporting the temperature as -9.3c, so maybe not too far away - for Sennybridge. What Llandrindod will be remains to be seen.
ReplyDeleteNot far off. I had to defrost the water supply to my kitchen this morning. Bah humbug!
