I see that the record has been broken for the warmest new years eve on record today (in the UK). The temperature in Somerset (Glastonbury pictured above) reached a balmy 15.8 Centigrade, which is ridiculous if you think about it, practically tee shirt weather in the UK in late December!
We spent a pleasant week in Somerset back in July this year (feels an age ago) and the night time temperature probably hovered around this mark, so to get it in December is truly exceptional! Of course exceptional things happen all the time but when it comes to climate superlatives it's statistically noticeable that they're coming thicker and faster than ever before as our climate averages keep notching up every year. Seems probable that we'll start seeing more severe changes and effects from now on (if we will ever lift ourselves out of this pesky pandemic!), out of the frying pan into the fire you could say! Oh well, I'm sure things will work out for the best, don't panic, have another cup of tea and try to forget the cricket!
Cheers to 2022!
