The weather hasn't been too bad between Christmas and the new year. At least it has been dry, allowing us to get down to the allotment to do a bit of tidying up and harvest a few fresh vegetables.
As the summer temperatures begin to fall in August we start to see a pattern develop where the beginning of the month is warmer than the end of the month. February marks the end of this spell as the winter begins to end and the temperatures begin to rise as we head towards spring. However, rather oddly, December somehow manages to have a recent trend of being milder at the end of the month and cooler at the beginning exactly the opposite of what you would expect.

Surprising both daytime high (solid red line) and night time low temperatures (solid blue line) show a slight upward trend through December.
January Temperatures 2019 |
By the time January comes around it's back to expected with the end of the month having colder temperatures than the beginning of the month. February then marks the start of a gradual rise in temperatures as we move towards spring and summer.
We made a short video of our visits to the plot after Christmas.
