Picture: Brian Moore I m dreaming of a warm Christmas is a little way off from that famous song lyric. But that was the case in this area five years ago when we experienced an usually balmy Christmas. In December 2015, we were enjoying mild temperatures at Christmas with temperatures nudging the mid teens as we headed towards Christmas Day. The weather on Boxing Day was spring-like . As per the tradition swimmers took the plunge for the Weymouth Harbour Christmas Day Swim, but a couple of holidaymakers from Birmingham couldn t wait to have a paddle in the waters of Weymouth Bay. Eileen Cook, and her friend Jade, had only been in the resort a few minutes after arriving from Birmingham when they decided to have a dip.
