Default CET: longest cold and warm spells since 1772

For those interested Bruce has written an excellent analysis of CET warm and cold spells. Interestingly the 'Year without a Summer' in 1816 only comes in at Number 5!

Fascinating. Thanks for the heads up.

Really nice set of stats. I was pleased to see that winter 1962-63 and
1947 had the largest negative anomalies. It's good to know that some on
here have survived both!
Not surprisingly since 1980, by these criteria, there have been 18 warm
anomalies and just two cold ones.

Yes, including me - though it's arguable if I 'survived' the 1947
record-breaker as I was only halfway to being born at the start of it!
The negative anomaly figures of circa -5 deg C for such long periods
are astonishing, there's no other word for it.

Hard to believe summer 1976 doesn't even feature in the T40, though!

A super analysis. I've never seen it done in this way before. One usually concentrates on just the coldest winters and the warmest summers, not the anomalies over the whole year. Very interesting.

I think that winter is when the really large anomalies can occur,
because it's when there's the greatest difference in temperature between
the various regions from which we can import an air mass. I haven't
checked, but I doubt whether such a large anomaly has ever occurred over
a prolonged period between say April and November inclusive.

I think there was one week or so with slightly below average
temperatures (though still dry) in late July, and that was enough to
break the sequence.

Just missed it but my brother was born March 12th 1947 and Mum and Dad
said it was a tad chilly at the time :-(

Indeed - I have put forward Bruce's name to be recognised by an RMetS award. His analysis are superb - his enthusiasm for the subject really shines through.
