Looking at the charts this morning shows the onset of the "European monsoon"
after an early spell of hot weather. Cooler west to northwest winds spread
across Britain by Wednesday. However, it looks weak this year and as per my
forecast issued last thursday I'm not expecting a lot of rain in the south
although there will be some.

Will, for those of us going on holiday, how large an area does the European
monsoon affect? And how large an area will this one likely affect?


Hi Adrian, primarily usually restricted to NW Europe, i.e not the Med or Spain.
So mainly UK, N. France, Benelux, Netherlands, Germany and Scandinavia. As I
said this one looks weak and will bring a change to cooler temperatures but most
rain really restricted to northern areas and mainly Britain and Scandinavia.

Will.
