Weather on individual days has been notable yes.
But in the final analysis it will end up a wholly unremarkable month as the extremes all end up cancelling each other out 
Plus despite all the media hype , there haven't really been any proper extremes. No individual day or night has produced jaw dropping mild or cold temps (the very low temps of the last 2 nights have been the coldest in Jan in SE England for some years and much hyped in the media  yes, but that speaks to a lack of recent cold Jans more than anything ), it's just a marked step change from a mild wet first half to a cold and dry second.
Will be interesting to see what Feb brings now as it very much holds the balance of power now with respect to how the overall winter will be remembered .

Did it really reach 15.8C at Dyce yesterday or is that a mistake?

It did happen. It was discussed in yesterday's Current Conditions thread along with the fact that Hereford almost had an ice day.

Id be surprised to see the CET fall too much further but a finish under 5 seems more likely than one above 5.

Ah well.

My pred is right off the mark, but after Christmas it looked like it might be good! In fact, there was a surprise swing in the forecasts that said 'becoming milder and more unsettled over the weekend' at first at some point. So at least I must have been thinking the same way as someone in the know- except we were both in the not-know!

I think it'll likely drop to perhaps 5.0-5.1c after today, then inch back to 5.1-5.2c in the last 3 days.

Then it's down to any adjustments (which have been minimal when I've wanted bigger adjustments in recent months... so this month they're bound to be big when I don't want them to be 😁)
