Hottest Start To May?

The Met Office gleefully declared the hottest start to May on record last Thursday.

This is the usual “One Day = Climate” hooey we are used to seeing from the Met Office, which appears to think we have not worked out there are 364 other days in the year!

In fact a temperature of 29.3C in the London urban heat bubble is not remarkable at this time of year. It was not even as hot as the 16th April was in 1949.
 
Away from the urban heat island, temperatures only hit 26.1C at Rothamsted, the high quality Class 1 site, thirty miles north in the Hertfordshire countryside.

CET reached 25.4C that day, the sort of temperature not uncommon in the first week of May:

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Whoever sets the global temperatures seems to be having trouble deciding what temperatures should be in Michigan.  Yesterday, almost 80 but today isn't supposed to hit 60. :pondering:
