Reply to So far 2022 has had the second widest range of daily average temperatures in the Central England temperature series. This shows the 5 years with the widest and narrowest range of temperatures in the series from 1772. [OC] by neilrkaye
I took this dataset and made some more graphs.
You can see the bimodal distribution because of the seasons

I derived this equation
x = time milk is added
y = temperature below which not adding milk at all would be quicker than adding milk at time (x) I.E if you want it to cool down to 30 degrees and y = 35 degrees then it would be quicker not to add milk
T_r = room temperature
T_c = Temperature of coffee when it is poured
T_m = Temperature of milk
K = Mass of coffee divided by the mass of milk added
a = constant to be found
​
It takes into account
The change in temperature from the addition of milk
The change in the rate of cooling due to the addition of milk
The change in the rate of cooling due to the increased mass of the coffee

Reply to comment by bongsound in Summary of UK weather and climate in 2022, it was the warmest year on record and overall the mean temperature exceeded 10°C (50°F) for the first time ever! It was also drier and sunnier than average. [OC] by neilrkaye
That was published before the record temperature was recorded in Coningsby
