March 11th isn't just BBC School Report Day...
More than 250 schools from the Shetland Islands in the north to Jersey in the south - and as far away as St Helena in the South Atlantic Ocean - will all be taking the temperature on 11 March. Schools here at the CLC on the day will be measuring and sending in the Gateshead temperature.
Each school will take a celcius reading at approximately 0915 and email it in to the BBC Weather Centre, who will compile all the readings for a huge weather report later in the day.
