At this time of year it becomes noticeable when day maxes fail to reach 10C
even with SW airflows.
Although nothing remarkable in itself I have now gone 10 consecutive days
with a max. below 10C. Yesterday was close with +9.8C in the evening. I know
winter has properly begun when I start counting consecutive days with max.
below +5C :-)

Good spot Will, 10 days here as well, though nothing above 7c here.
Equally only 2 of those below 5.
With your 9.8 yesterday evening, it was -0.4 here at 1830, then the
cloud and rain rolled in!

Our last double-figure max was the 24th November (10.9°C).

Much warmer down here by the coast. Only had three max below 10C so
far. Compared with 8 at the same time last year. Shows how mild
November was this year.
I am waiting for it to dry up. Better weigh up the spaghetti. It's
questionable that the much heralded cold period will reach this corner
of Devon. Even less likely snow. Same as Feb. last year. Hardly got a
flake of snow.

below +5C :-)

Temperature in Evershot rose steadily on 05/12 from 6.9C at 09z to 11.7C
at 04:16 this morning. It must be quite unusual for the temperature to
be higher in the small hours than in the whole of daylight.

It has been dropping slowly since the max and is now 8.6C at 07:45.

The temperature here has been trending upwards since about 08:45 on the
4th (0.1°C), peaking at about 01:30 today (9.1°C). The three-day history
on the web site shows this quite nicely. Currently 6.9°C

Unusual times.

Yeah I had a max. of 10.8C last night :-(

Still, don't get too many double figure maxes up here usually in DJF!
