March 2024 was the 11th warmest on record in the UK.
But yet again we see just how misleading such statistics can be.
As the chart above illustrates all too well, the temperatures we have seen are not in the least unusual. The warmest Marches were in 1938 and 1957 – hardly evidence of global warming! Nor is there any evidence whatsoever that Marches are suddenly going to get much hotter.
What we continue to see is the virtual absence of extremely cold weather in recent years. The massive inter-annual swings in temperature, which were all to common in the past, are almost a thing of the past.
Whether this is climate change or not. I have absolutely no doubt at all that our climate is much less extreme and milder than it used to be. It is also much more predictable.
Would anybody seriously want to swap it for the climate of the past?
