UK_Palms Posted December 24, 2022 Report Share Posted December 24, 2022 I have had clear skies here all night so far but the temperature is still holding up at 10.6C / 51F at midnight here. The convective airmass is just too warm to allow for any serious radiational cooling, as opposed to what we had a week or so ago. +15C isotherms are currently overhead, compared to -5C isotherms over say Houston, Texas right now for instance. I legit have my bedside fan running right now as I am roasting in my bedroom. All windows open as well. I cannot get my bedroom below 23C / 74F. My max today spiked at 16.4C / 61F due to the clear sunny skies. Even I am surprised that I am not getting hit harder from radiational cooling tonight. At least we don't have to worry about any frosts moving forward... 3 Dry-summer Oceanic climate (9a) Average annual precipitation - 18.7 inches : Average annual sunshine hours - 1725 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PalmatierMeg Posted December 24, 2022 Report Share Posted December 24, 2022 43.3F at 10:15 a.m. Low was 41.1 at 7 a.m. Predicted low was 38F. If I get the same overnight I won't get upset. Just the barest hint of sun so I may be lucky if we get to 50F. About 30 degrees below normal. If this front happened 2 weeks from now it might have been a disaster. Here in Cape Coral the 2nd week of Jan. is most prone to catastrophic winter weather, Jan. 10 being the lowlight. The record freeze of 2010 occurred the weekend of Jan. 9-11. We hit a record low of 28.5F the night of Jan. 10/11.

Cloudy sky scuppered daytime warmup; maybe it will scupper overnight low. Fortunately, we have turned off the sprinklers. My coconuts will show their displeasure over this run of cold weather.

Silas_Sancona Posted December 25, 2022 Report Share Posted December 25, 2022 Nice Xmas eve / day ...followed by 7 days of rain, showers, whatever wett-age / moist-ness?? 🤔 Too much season's "cheerfulness" by the 18z run today??🤔 ..Might i suggest saving such " Cheerfulness" for July ...and August, September / early October??

UK_Palms Posted December 26, 2022 Report Share Posted December 26, 2022 (edited) Who would have thought that London would be warmer than Miami on Christmas Day!? Both by day and night too. It's not uncommon for us to be hotter than Miami in July during heatwaves, but never in winter given that they are down at 25N and we are way up high at 51N. I mean Miami is 1,800 miles closer to the equator! Currently 9C / 48F here at 2pm as a cold front has hit. There is the possibility of a touch of frost for me tonight under clear skies out here in the country, as I have no UHI. This will be the coldest day/night over the next 10-14 days though. London is looking pretty darn mild as we enter the New Year. My Washingtonia's are on the move again now.

Silas_Sancona Posted December 27, 2022 Report Share Posted December 27, 2022 One last day soaking up some winter 70s before some rain and cool-ish days return.. We'll see how soon the 70s return.. Temps around town / down in Tucson around 2:45PM.. Less high cloudiness over S. AZ through the day allowed for more insolation / reaching into the 80s down there. Chandler/ East Valley: Tucson area: As you can see in the 10 day, anticipated rainfall totals have come down quite a bit compared to earlier, more "enthusiastic" thoughts.. Still should be a nice period of soaking rains area wide.. ( perfect for providing spring color to come a boost ) Temps pull back a bit, but nothing unusual.. Nights actually stay a touch "warm" under the pattern setting up. We'll see how long things stay unsettled.. E.Pac. Jet Energy driving storms across the pacific and into the west coast / S.W. could keep at it for the next week or so, or dump and retreat.. ( IE: Jet stream starts to retreat north, while low pressure bias retrogrades west, back out over the pacific closer to Japan, shutting off the hose on this side of the basin. ) On a side note, Sunsets are getting a little longer ( by a few seconds/ day, for the next few days anyway.. lol ) About 24 days out from the sun starting to rise earlier each day as well.. Already counting.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
