Michael Hulmo Under the Supplementary Benefits Act (1976), payments or 5 a week are payable by the DHSS to people on supplementary benefit during periods of exceptionally cold weather. The definition of exceptionally cold weather is obviously crucial and involves climate in three regards. Mow many climatological stations should be used to define the extent of cold weather? The fewer the stations used, the less representative of the DHSS offices where the claims are made. What length of time is used to define a This could be one day, any seven day period, one calendar weefc, or one month. And how is "exceptionally cold" defined? Does one use daytime or nighthne temperature, windchill, indoor temperature or outdoor temperature? The appropriateness needs constantly to be improved for accuracy and fairness.

The system currently in use dates from December 1986 and for a to be upheld requires the mean outdoor temperature to be at or below freezing for a continuous Monday to Man, Central England, NE England. Rather cloudy with some rain. Sunny intervals developing. Max 13C (55F). Channel Is.

Mostly rather cloudy with chance of some rain later. Bright spells. Max 16C(61F). Borders, Edinburgh, Dundee, SW Scotland, Glasgow, Argyll, Ireland. Sunny spells but coastal showers.

Max IOC (50F). Aberdeen, Central Highlands) Moray Firth, NE Scotland, NW. Scotland. Sunshine and showers, perhaps heavy and wintry. Max 9C (48F).

Orkney, Shetland. Sunny intervals and frequent showers, perhaps heavy and wintry. Max 7C(45F). Outlook for the weekend: most places dry and bright but colder with night frosts. Mean dally temperatures for a -Mean 0.4" 's'm't'w't'f 's's Sunday period at'the closest climatological station (63 are used) to the relevant DHSS office.

There are various ways, however, of using climate data to produce clear and sensible criteria for cold weather payments. For example, is an average temperature of zero Centigrade a suitable definition of exceptionally cold? Under public pressure it was increased- to zero from -L5 deg in 1986. Temperatures, however, do not take account of wind speeds, although the cooling power of the air is greater on windy days than on calm days. More importantly, is it fair to define the "period" as a week running from Monday to Sunday? A definition which allowed any seven day period to qualify is surely preferable to Around Britain Report for the 24 houra ended yesieroay: lemn Weather (day) Notllngh; PtamnuM floss-on-Wyi bast com Scarborough Bridlington Eiwgni In iManehastor 164 Deansgate Manchester M80 2RR Telephone 061-332 7200 Fax TfilfHriionoSalM: London 01-430 1234 Manchester 061-332 7200 Sun shine Rain hrs in GNQLAND Birmingham 4.4 ,02 15 59 Stiwrs pm Bristol 53 .06 15 59 Sunny Buxlort 2.1 .19 11 52 Sunny pm Carrisre 1.8 .22 13 55 Shwrs pm rrlfr 2.8 .09 14 57 Shwre pm Condon. 3.2 .01 17 S3 Sunny pm Manchesler 18 ..17 13 55 Showers Newcastle 12 .15 13 55 Bright pm Norwich 2.5 17 53 Rain am am 3.1 .06 14 57 Shwre i 6.8 .02 15 59 Sunny 4 5 07 16 61 Bright 2.1 08 15 59 Sunny 2.2 .11 14 57 Bright pm 3SS VI' 13 on aiiwrci am HUnBiamon '-r lo ai uiuuujf Cromer t.

The graph shows the sort of anomalies that can occur under the present system. Two successive Monday to Sunday weeks have mean temperatures of 0.4 and 0.6 deg although within that fortnight there was a seven day period when the mean temperature was as low as deg C.

Although the questions, of station representativeness and temperature versus windchill are complex ones to tackle, from the climatologists viewpoint it should not be difficult to use the running seven day period rather than an arbitrary calendar week. 9Dr Mike Hulme is a Research Climatologist at the University of East Anglia.
