We're overdue some kind of record high, we haven't had any this year even if May and July did still get to their second-highest temps on record.
Last year had four, even if three of them were pretty much one after another in February.

Currently goes by the name of ScrappyJoe on C-D. Yn0hTnA is the most famous account. I still remember everyone's surprise of when it was realised that Yn0hTnA is Anthony backwards. |

After this shit house year, I'd want a largely cool + wet 2021, most accentuated in winter (I'd also like a classic 50+ cm snow eventโthose never seem to happen anymore). I know for a fact summer will be cool and wet (La Nina), so might as well go full on polar foamer. Hopefully La Nina has all of 2021 in its grip, jointly with a strong โIOD and strong โAAO in autumn, winter, and spting.

Big snowstorm or two. Whether we get one or not is really the biggest weather-related variable. Everything else is more clockwork. Sure, there are other variables, but nothing as big as that.

In any order:
- record sun (after this spring it has been duller than average since and is a pattern that annoyingly keeps happening every damn year recently)
- hot summer (this year had decent spells of hot weather in the mid to high 30s but August in particular was ruined by an autumnal polar silt or my outbreak in the middle.
- extreme mild winter in NI to piss Owenc off. No snow at all on his mountain
- a new record high in March/May/November would be cool

Lol why is that? I'm mostly wishing for a very wet spring & summer. Trees desperately need it, they're immensely stressed by the bone dry past 3 summers. And if possible not in the form of stratiform rain coming from the Asstlantic, but rather from thunderstorms accompanied with clammy, warm to hot conditions. And please, if we could have a decent wintry spell in the meantime, would it be too much to ask? |

For fun, let's have a volatile winter with a lot of change between very warm/very cold with lots of precipitation.
I want a normal and long spring. Not the spring that comes mid May, stays 2 weeks, and then it becomes summer.
A below seasonal but not too wet/stormy summer. We've never had a cooler-than-normal summer that had below-average precipitation.
Nothing much to complain about fall this year, hoping for a repeat. And lastly, a White Christmas.

I'll have to work my ass off next year so shitty weather is at least a good excuse for being indoor all the time. My contract ends in spring 2022 and I'm planning to spend the whole summer of 2022 doing nothing and vacationing 
Btw, above average rainfall the whole growing season 2021 has to be on my list as well.

-I want an epic (I don't use this word lightly) Arctic blast in January/early February.
-Thunderstorms at any point
-A dry summer (i.e. low dew points but not low rainfall)

In some kind of bizarre parallel universe, Sheffield experiences a year with almost entirely above average months. Many set sunshine records, and some hot days occur too, though no high temp records are set. Despite that, it's the sunniest and mildest year on record.  The reality: Effects of the Sudden Stratospheric Warming combined with massive northern blocking and a southerly diving jetstream produces one of the coldest, wettest and dullest Jan/Feb combinations recorded. A sudden turnaround as the jet shifts to our north east in March, allowing for warm southerlies and sunshine to take hold. Over all too soon though, as delayed effects of the SSW and continued northern blocking send the jetstream back over the British Isles for April. Unprecedented levels of disruption to the jetsteam's normal path along with huge heights to the north keep the UK under constant trains of low pressure all summer, setting many cloud and rainfall records by the month. A brief bit of "heat" on a Spanish plume in July; all collapsing with a big storm of heavy drizzle and one distant rumble of thunder. A very mild, damp and moldy October is quickly replaced by a piercingly damp-chilly November with the lowest sunshine hours on record. The year 2021 sets the record for the most heavy rain events recorded in one year; the next milestone in the saga of unmitigated climate change that is robbing us of the ample heat, dryness and sunshine the British Isles were formerly known for.  |

The year 2021 sets the record for the most heavy rain events recorded in one year; the next milestone in the saga of unmitigated climate change that is robbing us of the ample heat, dryness and sunshine the British Isles were formerly known for. My sensible prediction for 2021, altered slightly from my earlier thought.
January: the month continues as it has done, with below average temperatures and barely any sun. The month takes the title of cloudiest January on record. February: continues where January left off. A heavy snow event in the first week brings 15cm to London, but the skies remain mostly grey. When the sky does clear, minima crash to -7c. March: yet more of the same; cold both day and night with frequent rain and barely any sun or signs of spring. April: no sun recorded for the first 15 days of the month, accompanied by rainfall and cool temps. The 2nd half brings almost unbroken sunshine with temperatures frequently around 20c. May: mostly warm, dry with partly cloudy skies. A brief heatwave late in the month produces the first 30c in May since 2005. June: continues where May left off; mostly sunny skies and temps above 30c in the first few days. The 2nd half of the month is frequently cloudy and cool. July: A mix of partly and mostly cloudy skies and average temperatures. A plume event mid-month peaks at 35c, but the end of the month is cool, cloudy and dry. August: very cool, cloudy and dry for the first 3 weeks. The final week is warm with unbroken sunshine, and produces the first above average day of the month. September: continues warm and sunny as August left off. A 2nd plume brings 30c and some thunderstorms, but the month closes mostly fine and settled. October: the UK is repeatedly battered by the remains of Atlantic Hurricanes. The month is characterised by almost non-stop rainfall and cloud, becoming the wettest month ever recorded.
November: another very mild, wet and cloudy month. December: frequent winter storms bring plenty of rain, but also allow for the sun to appear in between. A mild and wet month with near average sunshine.

2021 Wishlist:
- A freeze (very unlikely to happen).
- A record cold February; haven't had even a below average one since 2016.
- A cool/active April with lots of cold fronts and thunderstorms. We haven't had a cool April since 2005 FFS!
- A stormy/wet summer.
- Active hurricane season with a Cat 1/2 landfall here in South FL.
- An autumn where 90% of cold fronts don't die right in the ass in Central FL.
- A cool (relatively) October and November.
- Record cold December like in 2010.
My number one wish: To get out of this hellhole climate and move somewhere with a good climate.

So unlike the 2021 predictions thread, this one is for UNLIKELY (though not impossible) things you'd like to see happen in your location in 2021.
I'd like to see ONE of the following things happen this year (seeing as all are fairly unlikely):
- A July/August with an average high of 24.0ยฐC (75ยฐF) or higher - only 5-10 times in history has this occurred.
- Hailstorm with 2cm/20mm hailstones or larger at my residence.
- A proper blizzard with a few inches of snow (2-3 maybe) in less than 1-2 hours.
- Max temperature exceeds 34.0ยฐC (93ยฐF) at some point, making it the 3rd highest temperature on record.
Still interested to see if any of these things will happen. The blizzard didn't happen in Jan-Mar although it did snow a fair bit, including in April. Maybe December will produce one. Large hail, happened in Sheffield last year, but not at my location, hopefully this year, it will. The 34ยฐC, doubtful, and a July/August with the 24ยฐC avg max, very very doubtful.

Storms and heatwaves. I'm sure it's too much to ask though from our New World Climate. And thus far, 2021 has proven to be the greatest piece of fuck on record. Everything I could've not hoped for. No heat and no storms whatsoever. Fuckyooooooooooooooooooooooooo |

Likewise, this has been the worst start to a year I can remember, just no warmth to date aside from a few days in March. We have had some nice clear sunny weather up until a couple of weeks ago but temps were freezing cold barely struggling into double figures, way below average. There have been almost no warm days all April and weโre now coming up to โsummerโ without having had any type of warmth so far
