The weather in the UK in September 2020 was unremarkable.\u00a0 Can’t say more than that!
\nThe meteorological year starts in December which is why December appears as the 1st data point in the charts below.\u00a0 More information on the layout of the charts can be found in this pos<\/a>t.\u00a0 Points lying between the upper and lower deciles are shown as open black circles, points lying between the deciles and minimum\/maximum are shown as solid black circles and any month with a new record is shown as solid black squares.\u00a0 All data is supplied by the Met Office and can be found here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As I explained<\/a> in October 2018, the addition of a Temperature Range chart (B) means I update 7 charts every month so I rotate which 6 appear in the deck above and \"\"plot the 7th as a separate chart here.\u00a0 Since it is no longer Winter, Frost (chart G) is shown here since that is of least interest in these months.<\/p>\n

How abnormal was September 2020?<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n

\"\"Chart H displays my UK Weather Abnormality Index<\/strong><\/span> (Scroll down my May 2019 post for details<\/a>).\u00a0 The closer to zero this index is, the less abnormal and thus more “average” a month is.\u00a0 The higher it is, the more abnormal the month is.\u00a0 When the index is over 100%, we can describe the month as unusual in some way.<\/p>\n

The abnormality index was 37% in September 2020 making it a very boring month.<\/p>\n

PS: If you bookmark this link<\/a>, it will be refreshed with the latest month’s data.\u00a0 I usually post the update in the first week of each month.<\/em><\/p>\n
