Metcheck for December was 9.78 c nearly 5 c above normal. This was also 0.5 c warmer than November which was itself the second warmest ever.The warmest ever December has been totally shattered
Actually frosty in mid Sussex this morning. Only the second frost I can recall this winter.
Isnt the average for London in December nearer to 7c, 9.78c is indeed historically mild but nowhere near 5c above normal ??
No London is about 4 c average. Metcheck was 9.71 in the end just under 5 c above normal have a look at their site
I am willing to be corrected here US, but the met office site states the average temps.for December in the Southern region as follows:
1961 - 1990 as Dec @ 7.4c
1971 - 2000 as Dec @ 7.8c
1981 - 2010 as Dec @ 7.6c
http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/public/weather/climate/gcpckds7n
They seem to use 29 year periods, but even so it seems to show a 50 year average way above the stated 4c, I cannot be sure how more historic records might change this, but a 54 year average seems a reasonable temperature when comparing current trends.
I think this is daytime max the metcheck takes night and day average the daytime average in December this year was 13 c
Some signs of a cold spell the week after next
Jesus Christ. Must be a titanic certainty for you to proclaim it might actually be cold.

Love to know where you get that idea from or is guesswork?

There are a few signs of pressure rising to our North West later, but the Ensemble is still far too messy to say this with any confidence.

It's January old chap
Papa/US can you please assist us at this time and briefly explain the likelihood of a/an SSW event occurring in the next couple of weeks and the therefore likelihood of any sustained blocking that may lead to potentially snowy conditions for us in Feb?
