But we spend 9 months of the year in short sleeves to start with, so it's hardly a novelty its it. Now 9 months of cold and only 3 of warmth would be.
You missed out crap from the end of your post.

Horrible cold start here but warming up a bit from tomorrow thankfully, a lot drier from Tuesday as well,

You are going to be very disappointed in 3 or 4 weeks time me thinks, the clue as to the reasons why is in my username.
I.m not greedy though, that would be two of the 3 months of winter gone and I would always be happy with only one cold winter month, and unlike a lot on here it really doesn't bother me either way I just endure winter whatever it does although the heating costs are a much bigger factor in wanting mild than before. A dry summer is more important than anything else.

I'm not looking to antagonize any coldies on here but I really don't understand what all this fuss is about. 11c in January is a very mild temperature indeed and it's staying that way into the night as well, I could understand you moaning if it was 18+ but 11c is hardly warm. It's warm enough that you can save on the energy bills and don't dread getting out of bed in the morning but cold enough that you know it's not Summer any more.
If cold does come then it will come, if it doesn't then it doesn't. At the moment I'm most inclined to say it won't, but you can't say never. Me personally I think this will be a repeat of the Winter of 2007. Wet and stormy but mild.
I'm sure you will all love some Snow and minus temperatures but I assure you you will get tired much more quickly of that than what we have now.
I'm just enjoying not giving the gas company a big chunk of my income and having to put gloves, scarves and double socks on when I walk outside only to still feel freezing cold. Most winters I'm urging to end but this one I'm not, it's more like Autumn really.
This is just a very comfortable Winter where we can all save some much needed money rather than handing it to the gas company and we don't all dread having to get out of our warm beds in the morning. I'm sure a lot of people will agree with me.
Sure the rain is a pain but I'd take that over minus temperatures, a hefty gas bill and snow any day. I do feel for the people in the west however, it's been relentless.
Totally agree, loving this mild winter although we could do with less rain of course, no car windscreen scraping, no snow. and low heating bills, long may it continue.

Awful up to mid April, too cold for too long, excellent summer especially June and July, average autumn, liking the mild start to winter but would prefer it to be a lot drier.

I really wish we could write off the whole winter as having no really cold spell but it isn't going to happen, we will get some cold and snow at some point, just the same as we get a bit of high pressure and sun some time in summer, it is just that some peoples expectations on here are plain ridiculous.

Like it!
Y'know what I mean though!
Oh you mean for cold lol, well the first 2 weeks of Jan were mild with hp to the south so would guess about the 10th onwards and pretty much for 3 months after.

At what point last year did we start to see the light at the end of the tunnel in the models? It was just after new year wasn't it?
May.

Hopefully we won't get any snow all of next year either.

i was drawing attention to the fact that this is a 'monster' chart for coldies, yet gavin (who lets face it, is not a novice on here) had only seen 'another low'. (or decided to see it like that). if i wasnt making dinner at the time then i could have made a more in depth comment. i merely wanted to put gavin's post into context.
There have been "monster charts" for mildies yet many posters only see the cold possibilities in them, do you have a go at all of them?, if they only look for one thing why should he be any different?

Pointless model watching until the new year at least if you want extreme cold weather.
Why do the mild fanatics keep posting endless reams of useless charts that consume unnecessary bandwidth.
There should be a restriction on number of charts people can post. Maximum 4.
I wonder what the record is for number of people on ignore list? I have 3 pages worth of ignores.
aAgreed, thankfully.
Who? it is the cold fanatics who keep posting fantasy garbage.
Frosty would be knackered then.
I'm sure they are really bothered.

8c cloudy dry.

I see there are a few murmurings of excitement in the model thread — talk of snow and a pattern change!
Fortunately they are a bunch of hopecasters.

Very strong winds, driving rain and now a power cut.

Gavin, it amazes me how you fail to see any cold potential in the charts you post. Or you just love HP over the UK so much that's all you see!
And other posters only post about the cold potential in every chart yet we don't see you questioning them.

I hope it does happen and shuts the mild rampers up for good.
Possibly the stupidest thing I've read on here and that's saying something.

Yes soon the search for double-digit Maximums by day will be a lost cause and the descent into a more seasonal (Christmassy type of pattern) should become the norm. In fact I did mention such things a few days ago in other areas of the forum. Looking forward to it, sorry mildies but at least we all could do with drying out I guess before a potential wintry onslaught for some.
No it won't, they will be back sooner rather than later.
