Think we might take a full degree off the CET today. Severely cold in the Midlands.
Don't think that is really possible this far into the month!
5.2 x 15 = 78
4.2 x 16 = 67.2
So today would have to have a CET of -10.8C. I don't think that will happen. Wait till Monday (by which time the anomaly would have to be even bigger as we would be further through the month of course...) Remember that later in the month, each day has proportionally less impact on the total.
We could see a daily CET of -4 to -5C today but they never seem to come out that cold even when everywhere has ice days and -8C minima!
Assuming an extreme case of -5C then the CET would be down to (78-5)/16 = 4.6 by tomorrow.
Then the CET for tomorrow should also be very cold, before the snow on Friday and Saturday holds minima up... then early next week all bets are off if a cold clear ridge or col settles over deep snow...
