Foxpalms Posted December 30, 2022 Report Share Posted December 30, 2022 Today's high was 14.1c/57.3f in London it was cloudy this morning and now we are under clear skies so the low tonight will be 10c. New years eve will be around 15c/59f, might even get up to 60f. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The forecast looking mild for the rest of the month and going into 2023. Let's hope 2023 is a hot year! So it will be colder than 2022. Whatever is forecasted the opposite often happens. In all seriousness, UK usually isn't impacted by El Nino as much as the US I believe. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In all seriousness, UK usually isn't impacted by El Nino as much as the US I believe. The UK forecast isn't very accurate usually but for long term estimates it's usually somewhat true. El nino doesn't impact us as much but might make us slightly warmer. However the summers here in the last 10 years just keep getting for most years warmer and warmer on average and also the winter. My guess would be 2023 is going to be warm and possibly warmer than this year which was the warmest on record for the UK. The question is when will be drought start in summer since it can vary. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hortulanus Posted December 30, 2022 Report Share Posted December 30, 2022 14°C at 11:45 p.m. which is pretty warm for a winter night. It's predicted to get even warmer with 15°C in the morning and a daytime high of 18°C tomorrow. Last year and a couple of times in the past decade it was often very warm on New Year's Eve. It is quite a contrast to the cold blast we had lately... 3 2023 High 27.3°C Low -3.9°C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For us it has been quite balmy right after the deep freeze but even more in the last couple of days. This lead to frost damage showing up very quickly on a couple of plants. It's actually very nice out with those temperatures and it feels a bit weird, but it was the same last year. We had unusually warm weather around New Year's Eve. As I just checked temperatures above 20°C have already been measured today. Which makes it warmer than Sevilla. Predictions also went up for todays high. 2023 High 27.3°C Low -3.9°C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UK_Palms Posted December 31, 2022 Report Share Posted December 31, 2022 (edited) Max of 14.7C / 58F here this afternoon. Very wet, windy, stormy and gloomy, although quite mild. The alternative however would be dry, sunny & cold with nighttime radiation frosts, so I’m not complaining! It’s -6C / 21F in the Scottish Highlands, but a balmy +14C / 58F in central London at 9pm. Southern regions are tapping into the continental heat burst.

Silas_Sancona Posted December 31, 2022 Report Share Posted December 31, 2022 Can't ask for a nicer afternoon on the final day of 2022.. Rain should hold off until late overnight / early Am tomorrow, so a great evening for ringing in 2023.. Chandler and the greater East Valley.. Tucson Rain tomorrow, maybe a rumble of thunder or two. Beyond New year's Day?? ..Suggested forecast for the first week of the year looking good right now. We'll see it stays that way.

RyManUtah Posted January 1 Report Share Posted January 1 11c / 52F / I’m reading 92% RH - but my gauge is located under foliage in the shade - so I think that number may be inflated a bit.

Silas_Sancona Posted January 2 Report Share Posted January 2 Some clouds / passing showers after a wet and flashy opening to 2023.. Some pretty respectable rainfall totals, esp. on this side of town / up in the mountains east of here.. For the moment, we may clear things out for several days after tonight / tomorrow morning.. We'll see if it holds since not all forecasts follow WxU's current suggestion ( ..keep more shower chances around over the next 4 or 5 days ) A contrast to the continued parade of storms suggested for northern and central CA. for the next week.. More on that elsewhere.. Looking further out, some interesting stuff to watch as 2023 unfolds.. Current PNA, NAO, AO: PNA: NAO: AO: Since some are referencing it elsewhere, No, we are not in an EL Nino episode, despite the El Nino-like weather occurring in various areas atm... Nuthin' but Nina right now.. That said, "Cold Pool" in the far eastern Equatorial E. Pac. is showing clear signs of being destroyed.. What we need to see now, to get all that warm water on the left to build on this side of the basin, is at least 2 large Westerly Wind Burst generated Kelvin Waves between now and May.. There is some suggestion one modest WWB may try to take shape in the next few weeks.. We'll see.. What is a Westerly Wind Burst?.. Lots of articles online to research. Simply put, it is the pump that starts the entire El Nino process.. Winds blow west to east across the EQ. Pacific, driving "Waves" of warm water below the surface of the ocean east toward Ecuador, where that warmer water builds an ever expanding pool west across the equator/ Tropical E. Pac. Basin, that ultimately leads to a warm " El Nino" ENSO cycle, if Kelvin Wave activity continues feeding warm water into the pool through the entire cycle... All that said, right now at least, i'm not especially impressed at what the long term models are suggesting for ENSO.. As you can see in the current chart, we may only barely reach "Lean El Nino" status ( +0.50- +0.75C anomalies ) by late summer, which is a lower forecast than what was suggested earlier. Some of the blue lines are currently suggesting barely reaching Neutral by mid/ late summer, while others suggest reaching +1C anomalies at that time. Those change each day, so don't pay them much attention. The Dashed " Ensemble Mean" is the "forecast thought" to watch over the coming months. We'll also soon be entering the "uncertain" phase in predicting what lies ahead ( Green "SUB" = Spring Unpredictability Barrier ) Dark Blue Arrow is the starting point, Currently in La Nina territory... Yellow "X" represents June, roughly where forecasts should have a pretty good idea on where things will be headed as we come out from under the Spring "Barrier" Will we actually head into a El Nino this year?.. or hang closer to neutral for 2023? ( The Purple circled area, ], and ? mark ) Where things stand in June could also influence both this year's Monsoon cycle ( Light Green circle and ? mark ) and how active ..or quiet the East Pacific Hurricane Season could be ( Dark green circle and ? mark ) Won't dive into them since it is a pipe dream right now, ...and i don't trust the current "suggestions" enough but some interesting things to casually check in on over the next 4 or 5 months in some long range "monthly" forecasts. Regardless, could be another wild year ahead.. In the mean time, keep an eye on the P.V. ..that could get interesting as we head through Jan. and into next month. No, there is no imminent SSW ( Sudden Stratospheric Warming ) forecast, but, hints of one occurring -at some point / to some degree- are around. If it did occur over the next few weeks, effects -at the surface- wouldn't be felt until sometime in Feb. Note: Colors on the map indicate temperatures at 10hpa, -not- at the surface.. For now, the Wx focus in on California.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UK_Palms Posted January 3 Report Share Posted January 3 (edited) 11C / 52F here at 2pm. Cool, wet, windy and gloomy. Not much difference between day and night. It will be warmer during the day tomorrow and Thursday though. Stuff like Archontophoenix and Rhopalostylis are actively growing again outside here following the freak cold snap a few weeks back. The CIDP and washies are pushing new sprears too.

Ryland Posted January 4 Report Share Posted January 4 It's 11.3ºC/52ºF here first thing in the morning, very mild and humid. The overnight "low" was 10.8ºC/51ºF. Yesterday had my biggest ever (since I've been recording) winter diurnal temperature variation - we had a cold, clear start to the day with a low of 0.3ºC/32ºF and eventually reached a high of 11.6ºC/53ºF. It being the new year I've run my statistics for 2022, which was warmer than 2021 - average high of 14.6ºC/58ºF and low of 8.9ºC/48ºF. That is despite December being the coldest in a dozen years, averaging 5.6ºC/42ºF for the high and 1.6ºC/35ºF for the low. 1 Manchester, Lancashire, England 53.4ºN, 2.2ºW, 65m AMSL Köppen climate Cfb | USDA hardiness zone 9a Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UK_Palms Posted January 7 Report Share Posted January 7 13C / 55F here at 2am. The mild theme continues with my last frost now 3 weeks ago. I'm going to go well over a month without a frost in the depths of winter here and I am right out in the country with no UHI. I have had a number of nights stay above 12C / 54F this week and one night didn't go below 14C / 57F. Spears are proper moving again on pretty much everything, especially the CIDP. The crownshaft palms like Archontophoenix, Kentia, Rhopalostylis etc have been outside for 2 weeks now and seem to be benefitting from the mild nights with new spears opening. If I was down on the south coast by now, these would be planted out.
