The weather in the UK for September was unremarkable. Perhaps that is a welcome change after the hot summer?
The meteorological year starts in December which is why December appears as the 1st data point in the charts below. More information on the layout of the charts can be found in this post. Points lying between the upper and lower deciles are shown as open black circles, points lying between the lower/upper deciles and minimum/maximum are shown as solid black circles and any month with a new record is shown as solid black squares. All data is supplied by the Met Office and can be found here.
Every month I update 7 charts in all. I rotate which 6 appear in the deck above and 
plot the 7th as a separate chart here. Between March & October, Frost (chart G) is shown here since that is of least interest in these months.
How abnormal was September 2022?
Chart H displays my UK Weather Abnormality Index (see my May 2019 post for details). The closer to zero this index is, the less abnormal and thus more “average” a month is. The higher it is, the more abnormal the month is. When the index is over 100%, we can describe the month as unusual in some way.
The abnormality index was 43% this month which is in line with the median.
PS: If you bookmark this link, it will be refreshed with the latest month’s data. I usually post the update in the first week of each month.
Click the relevant month to see what the weather was back then. Months highlighted in bold had an abnormality index exceeding 100% indicating unusual weather. Alternatively click the Weather Tracker hash tag below this post to see a list of all such posts.
