Wasn't quite expecting it to reach 10 °C here with persistent cloud and a northerly but it just has hit 10.1 °C, so ending the sequence of 23 days <10 C

[Andy Mayhew]

Reached 10.4c in my garden yesterday.

Today is the 21st consecutive day not to reach 10C here since it reached 12.0C on Jan 25th. Longest spell of this winter. Chance of it going above 10C on Friday here.

Lol, this thread really hasn't got the same punch as the last few years apart from those in more upland areas.

It should have gone above 10°C last thur & fri but the mist stayed - even 3 miles away it was 14°C... but yes, its not been notable anywhere in the UK this season.

Longest gap at my site between 10 °C maxima this winter so far is 19 days ( 9th - 27th Jan inclusive ). A far cry from some more recent winters which had 40+

Has anyone managed 30 or more yet this season?

The last time it was in double digits here was 22nd November, so a run of 70 days so far.... but then being up in the mountains I guess I don't really count (yesterday was close with a max of 9.8°C)

I thought if anyone had it would be you It's still a bit surprising though even at your location that the gap has been that long. I guess that the less cold days lower down in your surroundings haven't been much above 10-12 °C then.

I think the rule of thumb measurement for temp decreasing symetrically with altitude is not all it seems... what with adiabatic wind flows and seasonal differences. Libanus and sennybridge meto stations are a similar elevation and compare them... http://www.weatherca...bsid/99195.html & http://www.weatherca...obsid/3507.html (Unfortunately Sennybridge went down during a thunderstorm and isn't back on line yet) ... but I would imagine sennybridge would usually be a degree or 2 colder than libanus.


And for those frosty still mornings, I'm always 3-6°C milder than the valley's below.

Just gone above 10°C here for the first time this year.. I think that is 106 days in total

[nicko31]

Yesterday was 11.2c here..

[JHJ21]

At Sheffield (Derbyshire Lane - the www.sheffieldweather.co.uk site) the last double digit max was on 29 January. The highest in February was 9.3 on the 4th, and the highest so far this month was 9.5 on Sunday.

[Dave K]

Last time I saw 10 °C was the 7th March, 15 days and counting - no sign of a 10 °C as we look ahead into April! Very late in the year to have such a run like this here.

[Mothman]

17th Feb here in Wicklow eastern Ireland. My record run in my 14 year record is 35 days back in Nov/Dec 2010, but this run is likely to be more than 40 days which is remarkable for time of year.
