BTW, 2006 will go down in British History as the year with no winter.


Just so we are clear, is that the winter of 2005-2006
or 2006-2007?

2005-2006. Temperatures during September and October have been and remain
well above the seasonal average. Today's forecast is 20C compared with a
seasonal average of 10C. This good weather may break before March, and I may
well be proved wrong. The MetOffice are predicting a cold winter because the
Atlantic SSTs are high! Occam's Razor says I will be right :-)
