Well I'm not wrong because the official data for Spain comes from AEMET stations which are all listed on the AEMET website & the standard period used is 1981-2010, 30 years of data not 20 & certainly not just 3-4 years, so no the average October maximum is not 26.1C.
We only use official sources on here, not amateur stations, which is what is on the AVAMET website
Hey man, why are you still determined to disparage other's word and contradicting data you don't even know about?
1. I've told you that it's not Alicante city it's ALTEA city.
The standard period for Aemet is 1981-2010, yes, but I've told you that 1990-2016 is what appears on AVAMET, because aemet has no stations in Altea. 25 years are enough years to be considered as an average, and the average is 26,1ºC, I've only shown you the last 3-4 years in nearby places to see an example, because you can't see Altea's station and averages unless you're a signed user on Avamet... it wasn't hard at all to understand...
AVAMET are not amateur stations, many are, but many others are from their own. Like the one which is close to me. No one doubts on your data, I don't care, I don't even doubt on it. Besides, I don't understand your determination to talk about places or climates which you have a little idea or no idea at all. It's a bit of funny... And about what is amateur or not, bro, you're not a WMO judge to tell which data is amateur or not.
EDIT: Now I understand why you argue with many other users. You talk about what you don't know and you also want to be right. You know what? Whatever you say, dude. , if you're happy... me too!

I am stating a fact that the AVAMET website is for amateur weather stations, it is no different to using a station from Wunderground. They are NOT official AEMET weather stations, so the data is not official.
We only use references to OFFICIAL climate data on here, if you don't like that then tough.
And you are the one arguing "buddy", I am simply stating facts, which you for some strange reason cannot acccept
Does anybody know if the Daily Mail come out with any of their usual ridiculous 'new Ice Age coming this winter' headlines yet this Autumn? They promised us Arctic conditions last year AND the year before that (probably the year before that too) and I am still waiting for it to materialise!

Daily Mail does that? The same here in Spain , last year's winter was warmer than normal in overall Spain but I've seen in Facebook by November 2015 lots of publications where they stated that "we are about to get a colder and a wetter winter" while the last winter was really dry compared to the normal average and the temperatures were about 1ºC above the normal...
Yup! now this map seems normal to me. The one from the bottom right corner shows it good.
Funny tho, because all of central, central-northern and central-eastern Europe were significantly warmer than normal in August and September, now October is colder... crazy climate
indeed. gothenburg had its 2nd warmest september ever, and now october is turning into a cold month. must be highly unusual when you consider its oceanic lag.

Interesting. This was only the 8th warmest September since 1961 in Turku.
But October will definitely be colder than average. And drier, if some weird monsoon doesn't hit. Still not a single drop of rain this month.

Yeah, it's the same story every year since a long ago, just because of our yellow media coverage trying to alarm us all the time.
Anyway, as you come from such gloomy but also lovely small country, how do you deal the climate of Altea area? It's so different to Rotterdam one.
