    I can't place the year, but I remember one February when it was 18 or 19 degrees, I was working outside and it was warm even in a tshirt. (Five?)Six nations was on around the same time. Think was 1998 the year?

    It was 1998 alright. 3 or 4 very mild days with hazy sunshine mid month.

    "LESS STORMY" - :pac::pac: I wish... This Winter so far has been the epitome of ****! As soon as they mention naming storms, a thousand storms start belting right at us.. Coincidentally as soon as somebody in 2012 mentioned "Hosepipe ban" in the UK and then in April, the weather turned around dramatically to a prolonged period of blocked patterns with wet and mostly cool weather. Be careful about what we say LOL :D. Anybody think the El Nino will cause February to be as mild as 1998 when a strong El Nino also took place?

    I hope not. The netweather winter forecast talks of a very mild February. I think, knowing our luck, we will get an easterly at the very end of February into March.

    Well see these contrasts associated with Strong El Ninos:

    February 1983 - Very cold
    February 1998 - Unseasonably "warm"
