Chill in the air this evening. But not a bad day. Calm. A bit grey but dry. Had a nice walk over to my old Dad's house this afternoon.45 minutes away. He is coming 94 next August but still has the old grey matter intact. Had a couple of glasses of port with him.

Fair enough, never thought I'd see you say it! I haven't seen a good snowfall since 2013 so it seems I'm getting slightly impatient, where as I know summer warmth is a given down here! I'll be getting an early spring in Morocco on the 8th of January so I'm happy!
No worries chap

As much as I love cold weather in winter, this year I seem to find myself yearning for early spring.
Yeah. When I was a kid I loved cold and snow but as I have got older the more I dislike it! Back in the day it didn't matter. Now it just gets in the way of everything and just causes disruption. Having said all that I can't deny it does look stunning if a decent snowfall overnight followed by a Sunny blue sky morning . It's just when it starts to thaw and the grit and everything.

This is not a moan. More of a celebration. By Sunday 7th Jan we already have an extra 18 minutes of day light in the evening. A sure sign of things going in the right direction as we once again tilt closer to the sun. The darkness of November/December fading away.

Hope we are all enjoying Christmas eve? I am . Wolves beat Chelsea 2-1. Not too cold either sat out in the stands for 2 hours. Quite blustery. A few drizzly showers otherwise not too bad for mid winter. Enjoy your evening folks.

As long as any SSW event doesn’t tamper with spring then I’m all for it.
wish this wind would do one. At least it’s dry and not too cold
Yes. Apparently SSW interferes with ongoing weather. It made Spring 2023 cold and wet. No thanks in spring 2024. A re run of Spring 2020 would be most welcome.

Quite pleased with the last week or so. Mild. Haven't had to put the heating on! Wishing ALL contributors to this forum a merry Christmas and happy new year. All the best.

Just had a look at the rain radar and a huge rain event incoming towards Dudley. Could be a few hours of heavy rain.

Would be very nice to have a very mild wet Feb. I look forward to it.

The good thing about today was when I woke up. I got out of bed to have a wash and the house didn't feel like a freezer. If we can keep eeking out a few weeks like this as we eat in to winter great! Always said I can cope with a cold interlude late on in Feb. I know then we are only 4 weeks from spring!

I wont need my lawnmower until late May early June thats when the grass start growing again
Blimey. Starts coming back to life Feb if it's mild here. Been occasions when it's been in action early doors. I remember a mild winter think it was 2011/2012 and had the mower out in late Jan !

Pleasant enough today. Light breeze. Fair amount of cloud. Not desperately chilly. Had today and tomoz off. Nice day to get the final fall of leaves off the lawn. Cleaned the lawnmower up. Sprayed a bit of WD40 round it. Keeps it ready for March when it revs in to action again! Cut a few branches back from the years growth. Enjoyable day keeping busy !

Surely not a repeat next year, hopefully we will get a taste of warmth and prolonged sun in April…March even but I don’t want to sound greedy
The winter of 88/89 was a mild and dry affair. Then followed a chilly March and April if I remember right. But May through October 1989 was a bonanza of warm sunny weather with the occasional thundery interlude. One of my favourite summers 1989. Obviously speaking in the context of the winter gone.

Very much looking forward to the Azores High next weekend. Perfectly positioned. Drawing up SW winds from the Azores. Fairly mild but at least dry.

Seriously, that seems to be the only winter in recent times which has been both significantly milder and significantly drier than normal. Wonder when the last instance historically was?
I don't know. I just have a bit of banter. There are 62 63 fans who love the cold. It's all good.

The iconic winter of 88/89. Never surpassed since.

Rather looking forward to 7c at 6am in the morning. Save me feeling like I am in a refrigerator as I arise from my bed.

I am perfectly chilled thanks to the 48 hours of constant cold rain I have been having to endure.
Ok

Did it predict that at the beginning of July?
Chill out chap. Just a bit of banter. But the prediction was a hot and sunny July. Look out it turned out. No worries.

I don't believe it. Goes completely against this forecast:
Long Range Weather Forecast - Winter 2023/2024 | Netweather.tv
WWW.NETWEATHER.TV
Long range weather forecast for the UK - Winter 2023/2024. Will it be a cold winter?with a Scandinavian rather than Greenland block suggested for later in December.
Also predicted a hot and sunny July
