3.8C, 89mm. 

I don't think December is our last hoorah albeit it is probably our most severe spell relative to average. 

As things stand, i believe that spring will arrive in February though.

Tough one..  Models looking dire but I have hope

3.5C and 110mm, slightly below average. I feel like the cold will come back in some way, whether it be from an SSW or a pattern shift. 

Well the hope I had has started to diminish..

5.9C and 140mm please

Mild up to mid month, after that it's anyone's guess

Or 9.5C, a December 2015 redux?! 😬

I am going with 4.4 so you can't tempt me with a reversal, and 79.2 mm of (mostly) rain. There might be one cold spell but I am not sensing much potential for blocking with the jet rather strong but too far south to suggest an extremely mild month. So more of what we've seen since the mid-Dec cold spell ended.

6.1 and 95.0, thanks.

Very mild, but not the mildest of recent years, and rainfall maybe a shade above average but not notably wet.

Lol!!  Was expecting worse TBH!😉

Presumably you expect the possible cold spell to be towards the end of the month?

Will review the 4.4, perhaps 5.5, 6.6 or 7.7 eventually, just want to avoid those reversals. It's a fairly mild looking pattern but the GFS keeps trending towards cold zonal late in the run, usually never works out but there's a first time for everything. In December, the one time I don't get sucked into a cold forecast, it would have worked out. Every other year it seems to go the other way and then I fall so far behind nothing can save my year.

Feeling unconfident about it being a cold one, although I feel some high quality Polar Maritime flows will conquer the UK further into January we go, perhaps with early to mid December 2022-esque Northern blocking trying to re-establish right at the end of the month.

CET of 5.8*C and 100mm of rain/snow, please. Tar!

I promise not reverse any of your estimates! 😉

A mild month most likely, 5.5. degrees.  A notably mild first half, colder conditions second half much more so in the north, with polar air pushing aside tropical maritime air thanks to a more southerly tracking jet, but the south part of the CET zone may escape much cold weather - a marked north-south divide, Scotland likely to be close to average. A wet month with snow a common feature in the north at times.
