What a surprise the cold hasn't returned. Just unremitting bleak ugly unpleasant un-festive dirge all week that shows no sign of relenting. Yet another year of unbelievably dire Christmas/New Year weather in which we'll struggle to get a frost 🤬
The meteorological equivalent of getting just a 💩in your Christmas stocking every stinking year. Nothing to look forward to or enjoy whatsoever.
It's just utter poison these conditions. Detestable without any redeeming qualities. Conditions so poor that darkness is more acceptable than daylight. Horrendous with the mildness concentrated at night as always. Not dropped below 2C all week and outside the cold spell it hasn't dropped below freezing all month. Disgraceful. There isn't another climate at 57 degrees north that struggles to drop below freezing around the shortest days of the year ☹
Feels horrible cold and rotten during the day with temperatures barely higher than during the night. It's 5.2C now having dropped lower than 4.2C overnight. Absolutely dire temperatures. I can think of nothing worse. Bedroom temperature is currently 14.1C same as during the cold spell and there has been no change all week.
The sooner this rank, poxy horrendous good-for-nothing season is over the better. January will just be another boring write-off. That's all it ever is nowadays. Relentless bone dry westerlies from start to finish which is why it is now ludicrously the driest month of the year having once ranked amongst the wettest.
