Mean Central England Temperature, 2022

Note that the estimated mean value may not be equal to (max+min)/2 because there is always one more minimum
value than maximum. This discrepancy is exaggerated during the first part of the month and when the nights have
suddenly become significantly colder or warmer.  

• Averages so far this year:-
• Average CET to April: 7.07
• Normal CET to April: 5.28
• Anomaly to April: 1.78
• Provisional CET anomaly (up to 8th May): 1.80

  anomaly must be higher than 1.25 for the remainder of this year

  The lowest annual mean CET ever recorded was 6.86, which is -2.65 lower than normal. To beat this record the
  anomaly must be lower than -5.05 for the remainder of this year
