(December & January)

Based on the time we have been here (winter 1999/2000 onwards)


Currently (end Jan), in terms of mean (24hr) temperature, it is the
coldest winter since 2001/02;

In terms of air frost days, 2001/02 had more (26) than this winter (21)
at the same point;

In terms of snow falling, we've had 6 so far, the same as in 1999/2000 &
2000/01.

In terms of snow lying at 09Z, we've had 0 (zero) so far: as recently as
2003/04 we experienced 2 days with snow lying and in 2002/03, by this
time, there had been 5 days with snow lying at 09Z.


Overall, this winter so far (in terms of snow, frost, temperature) for
us has been unremarkable, with a 2-month anomaly on 24hr temperature
of -0.3degC on the 1971-2000 eLTA. Given that the 71-00 base-set was
warmer than the 61-90 used by the Met Office, it may in fact be regarded
as "around average".

Overall, this winter so far (in this part of Norfolk) there has been no
weather at all. None. Someone must have turned off the machine.

It feels the same way in this part of Hampshire too. Today we've seen a
rare small glimpse of blue sky but mostly the only variations in the
weather seem to have been the shade of grey above.
ho hum.

January ended as it started - grey and cool. Probably only 2-3 days that
have been sunny. Colder as well this afternoon. 2.5C at 5.30 pm.
