Spring Sun Winter Dread
06 December 2022 14:08:53
SS not over til the fat lady sings...
I reckon this year will go to the wire.
It does look more or less nailed on to be coldest Dec since 2010 at the very least unless we get a crazy festive warm up (which is something I would never rule out tbh!)
22 could potentially go down as one of the great weather years.
Lovely spring 
Amazing summer 
Prolonged drought 
Mild autumn bringing drought relief to most 
Then a nice seasonal December to finish .
1995 vibes ...

I did go all in on cold. Which seems to be happening however December is a long month. I had a terrible October which cost me dearly but I think I have led the competition since the spring so be interesting to see if my lead run has been one of the longest. And this is the first full year I have competed

Only a week into the month but my 5.6c isn't looking good and will look worse by mid month! 🙄

I was a little surprised to find I was so far down the spread of estimates for this month, though I did decide to play the 'bold' card in case the impressive signal for a lengthy -NAO pattern came through.

Since then I've spent more time feeling positive about my estimate than negative but it's hardly been smooth going, the low from by the Azores causing absolute havoc in the modelling, often with knock-on effects over the following days or even week.

1978 will be in contention for that title. A very mild autumn followed by a notoriously severe winter 

Sadly with all the strikes and the state the country is in the similarities don't end there !

Still 3 weeks to go but as I wake up to a blanket of snow outside this morning I have to say I think I've blown my chances of retaining the title.
Will wait for the charts for Xmas period to firm up but it's going to take some serious blowtorch Atlantic stuff to get us to 4.2C now.
