E&W rainfall 1-7 Feb 2004 = 31.3mm
E&W rainfall 8-14 Feb 2004 = 3.0mm

Once again parallels between this year and last year seem
to be turning up with surprising frequency ... there were
quite a lot between 2003 and 2002 as well. The abrupt
change to drier weather happened on 12 Feb last year.

On that basis we can probably usefully predict that it
will get considerably warmer during the next five or six
months insert smiley if required.

Is this likely to be a statistical anomaly or are the similarities
possibly the result of other influences (e.g global warming)?

Interestingly, here at Holbeach St Matthew I recorded 7.5mm between 1st and
12th Feb, with a further 14.0mm since 09:00 on 13th February - it really has
been a wet, miserable weekend in Lincolnshire

ditto here in East Yorkshire. About 10 hours rain Sat, and Brid coming in as
the wettest place today on weatheronline with 4.8 mm

Philip, I think that's a bold statement even for a man of your stature!
Afterall, look what happened to old Bill Giles.

What was? You quoted stuff by Paul Freeman and Trevor Appleton, but
nothing by Philip.

He misthreaded. If he'd responded to Philip, instead of following on
from the last post, it would have been clear.

Yes, I see Fylingdales came out with 24mm or so over the weekend.
Just shows what these depressions aloft can do, doesn't it? But the
E&W rainfall figures still apply. If you'd rather lets just say that the
change to an anticyclonic regime happened around the 9th :-)

It appears that your earlier comments regarding the January average
pressure charts showing low pressure near Newfoundland, being followed
by a sustained anticyclonic spell in our vicinity, seems to be holding
true to form Philip. No sign of this thing budging atm.
