Hi, All,
With no really cold weather on the horizon, this is set to be the second mildest December, after 1988, since I began recording in these parts in 1970. Mean screen so far is 5.3C which is 2.4C above normal. Since I began recording at my current Copley site in 1995 the mildest December up to this year was 4.2C in 2006. (I estimate 1988 in Copley would have been 5.5C using my record at nearby Low Etherley.) Mild Decembers are invariably followed by mild winters on my record. It certainly makes a pleasant change from all the snow-shovelling and difficult travel conditions of recent winters. Don't like the winds though, mean speed so far for this month is 13.2KT Best wishes, Ken Copley, Teesdale |

I did say last week how mild this December was and here too it's normally followed by a mild Winter ![]() Mean here stands at 5.7c so far with just 1 air frost, only the very mild December's of 1988 (6.3c) and 1974 (6.6c) have been warmer. Both 1975 and 1989 Winters were very mild, only the Winter of 2007 was warmer. Graham (North Staffs) |

Webcam and weather:- http://windycroft.co.uk/weather Anomaly not as large here Mean so far 9.0C (+1.2), but still the mildest December since 2007 Rogers page http://www.met.reading.ac.uk/~brugge/anomt.jpg shows anomalies of +3 to +4C over a largish area of Scotland. Still no severe gales or notably heavy rainfalls here this month, though that may be about to change. Strongest gust in Penzance 47mph, total rainfall 62.7mm, 45% of the December norm. But some really spectacular seas over the last 4 days, which have all seen swells 20' at Sevenstones. Superb wind/kite surfing conditions at Marazion this morning, I may upload some photos later.

Graham Penzance Good news about the mildness, but there's certainly been some interesting weather here while I've been away in Yorkshire. My neighbour rang me on Thursday to say the gene had blown down in gales on Tuesday night. Also, some very mild weather in Pontefract while we were away. 13C yesterday. On the way back vis Cardiff, some excellent cb's, virga and optical effects. Nice! (except for having to repair the fence). |
