Are downward adjustments still a thing with the current CET?

Hope not

A cooler end to May has put pay to a notably very mild one, but still appreciably mild will be the end result. Question is whether we fall into the 12s or stay at 13 or 13.1 degrees. Today is a cool one, so I can't see 13.1 being final figure, would not be surprised to see it finish as low as 12.7 degrees factoring in the downward adjustments.

Yet another much milder than average CET month without it ever being especially very warm. The figure masks what has been quite an average month rainfall and sunshine wise, indeed some places may end up slightly wetter and slightly duller than average, so despite the warm CET not a particularly great May has to be said. 

Note 2020 only produced 12.5 degrees, and I would rank it a much better month than this one, the cooler nights had an effect. 2017 and 2018 look like being slightly warmer, and again I wouldn't rank this month anywhere near them, especially 2018. 2016 was 12.5 degrees as well. Just like April, we are having a run of very mild May's recently.

Yep the 12.6°C for 2020 was really dragged down by the cool nights.  The maximum CET of 18.3°C makes it joint 5th warmest in the CET series.

[BruenSryan]

Final May CET came out at 13.1C, warmest since 2017 and 2018. No downward correction.

Spring 2022 the 6th warmest since 1659 with 10.1C.

May 2022 had the highest mean minimum temperature on record at 7.8°C

[North-Easterly Blast]

Will the legacy version be updated with the month's final figures?  It appears that another version of the CET has come out which in recent decades has slightly different figures in general to the legacy version.  I notice that the legacy version has the daily values up to the end of April, and the monthly means up until then as well.

Virtually frost free for the south. Many places didn't dip below 5c. Warmth like this slips beneath the radar unnoticed.

Here, May 2022 has a warmer min temp than June which saw 3c today. Kinda astonishing if you ask me

[The PIT]

Funny old month no real highs or lows yhet manged to finish 5th in the warmest mays we recorded here. Night time temperatures were the key coming in a large 1.7c above average. The day time temperatures didn't make the top ten for May in Sheffield. It also made sure that spring was the third warmest on record at 10C.

Overall May clocked in at 13.3C, Average high 17.6C and overnight low 8.9C. Rainfall 33.9mm 56.9% of the monthly average.

Rainfall wise it missed out of the top ten but helped spring to be overall 8th driest on record.

A brief summery here

We may have had a significantly above average May but without any significant spell of particularly warm weather; really warm days were isolated briefly around mid-month; apart from that for the rest of the time it has not felt particularly warm.

Wow that is chilly! I'm grateful that my veg didn't suffer the cold temps that were forecast for this area a few days ago. We were expecting 4s and 5s yet the reality was 8s and 9s. Nothing dies at 8c, 5c and some tender plants such as cucumber don't like it at all. I saw that east Anglia had -2 a couple nights ago.

A reminder of how chilly our weather is in general.

[Don]

Does anyone know what the highest maximum temperature was in May last year?  I understand the highest maximum in May 2022 was 27.5C at Heathrow?  The final week in May last year did turn very warm, preventing it from being a notably cool month.  Would be ironic to have a higher maximum in a month that was overall 3C cooler!

We have a thread discussing the new v2.0 CET and some of the discussion in that thread has spilled over into this one too.

The legacy version probably will not be updated ever again, it ended with 30 Apr 2022. It has not been updated this month.

The new version has four distinct phases worth knowing about:

-- from 1659 to 1852, nothing changed at all, except that they added some missing data for Dec 1786. Also one or two monthly means changed by 0.1 probably due to a new rounding protocol in use, the actual daily values have not changed for those few months (that goes as far back as 1788 but there are not many examples, they are listed in the other thread). 

-- from 1853 to 1973, changes are rather random and generally on a small scale except that some record values have changed considerably. For example, both 23 Nov 1858 and 24 Nov 1904 are now behind 28 Nov 2010 (which remained -4.0) as November's coldest daily mean. 19 June 2005 (now at 23.2) is now the warmest June day, not 3 June 1947 (now at 22.9).

-- from 1974 to 2004, there was a general tendency to adjust down by an average of 0.1 C. This is not a hard and fast rule where every day was reduced by 0.1 but it is certainly the overall tendency. 

-- from 2005 to present, there was an opposite tendency to adjust up by an average of 0.1 C. For some reason warm spells in 2005 got a much larger boost and the number of record highs now attributed to 2005 has increased considerably. A lot of other data with which everyone is familiar (from legacy CET) remains more or less unchanged. 

------------------

Here's what I observed with today's data update: the numbers that I downloaded around 11th of May were unchanged on today's version, I cannot be sure this is true for 12-31 May data that anyone might have seen, because I wasn't recording it. So I am not 100% sure if the 13.1C mean and all the daily means will always be there in the data base, or if the new regime of CET will now resemble the EWP protocol which is to post numbers each month and then refine them for up to three months. I suppose they did that on rare occasions with CET legacy values although the only examples I ever read about were back around 2006. 

Something else worth knowing is that the ranking tables use a second or even a third decimal which you do not see on the page, to rank the tied months. This past May was rounded up from 13.068, which is why it appears in a cooler position than all the other Mays except 1998 at 13.1. I went into the data base I downloaded and worked out that May 1998 had an average of 13.058. The other two now at 13.1 are 1809 (13.097) and 1893 (13.103). They are all listed in that order. The old protocol was to list the ties in chronological order regardless of that second decimal. So that has changed. Since there are no daily values before 1772, when those years appear among tied months they appear to be inserted at random in the position of 13.100 ... see for example 12.5 (May) which has years in the daily data and pre-1772, with those pre-1772 in this order: 1685, 1737, 1686, 1728. I can't see any obvious logic in that order but they are all between 1940 (12.487) and 1829 (12.503) with daily data and averages below and then above 12.500. 

Final take away and a problem for J10 to resolve potentially, what happens if this new regime does have a reset like the EWP on the 5th? Do we score from 13.1 or the reset? How long into the future can we tolerate resets? My policy with EWP is that I wait for the reset on the 5th, but I don't then recalculate scores a month or three months later when the reset value is reset again. Now, having said that, I don't know if either CET or EWP will have those resets any more, in the case of EWP, they have changed the reporting (tracker as I call it) to a one-decimal precision so I am now going to be waiting to see what happens tomorrow and then on 5th of June. Up until this month you would not see the tracker final value in the tables at all, just the adjusted (5th) values.

Quite remarkable to have same CET value 3 out of 5 months. 2022 sharing same value as 2017 and 2018. As said it was the very mild minima that helped prop the CET up this month. It wont be remembered as an especially warm one in my books not on a par with 2018 or 2020.

Lots of cloudy southerly airstreams. Lack of anything from between north west and east which is highly unusual for May.

25.1C at Kinlochewe on the 31st, the lowest May absolute max since 2015 (which was only 23.8C).

[Roger J Smith]

Except that 2022 is not the same value as 2017 and 2018. They were 13.2 in legacy CET and both got the boost to 13.3 in v2.0.

2022 is 13.1 in v2.0. So it's 0.2 cooler than 2017 and 2018 (as of now). 

Just to avoid further confusion, I think the value 13.7 quoted for 31 May is a typo, should say 13.1, as that conforms to the anomalies shown. 

 

[Roger J Smith]

The EWP tracker has finished its work for May and stands at 57.9 mm. 

That value does not yet appear in the tables and they still mention on their download page that values are updated on the 5th of each month. 

So I will wait for the 5th, see what they post, and go with that for scoring. I did update my file a few days ago using 53 mm and there were a few changes to the top ten annual but it remained fairly similar overall. Anyway, look for scoring updates on the 5th which is Sunday. 

Not seeing any new info about CET so I have to assume that 13.1 value is a final value now. Not sure why they use the word "provisional" any more if they don't plan to revise the numbers. 

[North-Easterly Blast]

The only way that I believe that you can get different values for the new version of the CET and the legacy version is if the new version of the CET uses different stations to calculate the daily CET compared to the legacy version.  As far as I was aware, the legacy version used stations ranging from Rothamsted, Pershore and Stonyhurst to calculate the CET.  If different stations are used to calculate this new version of the CET then it is inevitable that slightly different values would be achieved.

For the sake of the legacy version of the CET, given that its daily values date back to 1772 and monthly means date back to 1659, using a particular range of stations to calculate it, then I would prefer it if the legacy version of the CET could continue to be updated using the same stations as were used before.

EWP scoring __ Annual update and May scores

 

_ adjusted after EWP final value _ scored from 58.8 mm

_ scoring rank for May is followed by scoring interval which includes order of entry. For example, looking at the first entry, freeze was 24th and scored off the 22nd interval for which that entry was third submitted. Some other scoring will contain adjustments for late penalties which will be reflected in a differential between rank and scoring interval. Scoring intervals drop regularly but adjusted scores depend on some different values for right or wrong side of normal. Duplicate errors drop by less than full scoring intervals (this month, .12 instead of .22). ... Numbers in brackets after forecaster name indicate number of months entered if not all six.

The EWP came in at 58.8 mm. There have been no changes to the CET so it begins to appear that the "provisional" numbers are also final numbers. 

The slight increase in the EWP from the tracker suggested value will mean a few slight changes in scoring. Our consensus for the month was 59.0 mm and came in closer than any forecast. 

Will adjust the scoring table posted above. 

[Roger J Smith]

From the table of entries, this would be the order of finish for the CET contest (subject to verification by J10) ...

this order is for comparison purposes with EWP and as usual I have shown late penalties as losing one rank per day late.

However, the table shows the CET forecasts as they will appear before late penalties are blended into the CET file format.

This is why for example the order below appears "out of order" around best ranked late forecast from Emmett Garland.

The CET forecasts are shown with the EWP forecasts to provide some context for the "best combined" ranks as noted:
