  1. Almost through what is IMO the worst month of the year for SAD sufferers. Next month we will soon see the first 10 hour day(light) of the year and the sun climbing ever higher in the sky. The steeper incident angle of sunlight becoming more noticeable as things just look brighter and more alive.
  2. One of favourite periods of weather that was. 16°C and gin blue skies really helped to shake off those winter blues a month or two early!
  3. I can feel a February 2019 in my bones also wasn't that after a SSW? Can't really remember
  4. 2018 for me. 7 foot snow drifts in March, an absolutely fantastic May to early August period. Exceptionally warm night of around 19°C in October as well as recording -5°C at the end of month. 2022 also just for the prolonged nature of the warm and useable weather.
  5. Strong support for mild into the foreseeable. Good news for keeping those bills down.
  6. You're looking at mean CET, not max: https://www.metoffice.gov.uk/hadobs/hadcet/cet_info_max.html
  7. We would need an anomaly of -13.54C to miss out on the highest maximum CET year, so I think we can say that's a done deal now unless the sun switches off lol
  8. Shame we saw no snow in Exeter despite a couple of ice days.
  9. Regardless of your weather preferences, you have to admit these are some very unusual synoptics for the second week of December (where you'd expect a roaring jet stream with rain band after rain band after rain band...)
  10. Agree 100%, Marco is a fantastic meteorologist and and very respectful to other experts and amateurs alike. To see people here bad-mouthing him here seriously rubs me the wrong way, can we at least respect each other even if we disagree on some things?
  11. Bitterly cold last night according to my weather station down near St Athan, down to -7.2°C. After a high of 4°C this afternoon it's already down to -5°C.
  12. Don't focus too much on models. Remember these features tend to trend southwards. Met Office going for 70% chance that the feature is south of the UK, maintaining a bitterly cold easterly flow.
  13. I'd expect most of these coming from satellite radiances/radio occultation sounding, etc? Lower atmosphere particularly difficult since multipath/SNR becomes large in the lowest few kilometres. I'd any model output to be dominated by the background in these regions due to the low density of observations in this region as you said.
  14. Watch this plummet by the weekend. A few model runs have this dropping below 1°C by mid-month .
