January 2024 CET and E.W.P. forecast contests

[Methuselah]

6C and 100mm thanks, Roger.

[SummerShower]

5.0C and 115mm

Cold and mild spells alternating.

Wettest in the south, southerly tracking jetstream quite prevalent.

[Typhoon John]

6.2c please

[Summer8906]

5.2 and 110mm.

Based on a combination of the Met Office forecast and what the models were showing, some hint of cold, taking this with scepticism but perhaps enough to prevent it being silly mild for too long.

Going for the first half being mild and wet, but less mild and less wet than last year, and the second half being dry but less dry than last year, with temps around average. So a month of two halves again, but the halves less contrasting than this year.

[Addicks Fan 1981]

Going to have to lower my CET guess to 4.0 which would be the coolest January for three years.  I do think colder bits and warmer bits will cancel each other out.  We have to take into account the IOD and ENSO which I think will have some sort of bearing of how January will behave weatherwise.    

[WYorksWeather]

Very, very tricky one this. We have a mild start to the New Year, then most likely a significant cool down in the second week. Then, it's just a matter of how long the cold lasts. I'm going to bet on only a week or so of cold, followed by a return to recent type with some mild but wet conditions.

Rainfall overall very slightly wetter than average, temperatures quite mild on 1961-1990 but nothing unusual on 1991-2020.

5.4C and 103.6mm.
