Looking at the satellite pictures around the globe, there seems to be
a different look of things this year. The Indian Ocean is now
particularily quiet, whereas Australia now in it's third day of the
effects of Cyclone Debbie looks decidely unsettled, infact many parts
of Aus have had a mixed bag of weather with plenty of rain. North
America seems to be falling into a pattern with High pressure over the
Rockies forcing low pressure over eastern Canada and a succession of
northerly plunges. Not seen things looking quite like this in the
short time that I have had access to all this data and graphics.

Thankyou Will for both your informative and honest reply. I will be
tuning in to your update when it appears.

What I like about Joe's column is he gives an indication of any change
or trend in the patterns, without saying it's going to snow in the
afternoon in London in three weeks time, anyone who say's that you
can't realy take seriously.

Merry Christmas to you :-)
