Hi,

Thanks to all of those who replied and Graham, intrigued by your original
post, I then looked at the radar for the time period concerned and yes,
quite an area of white echoes was working it's way along the North coast of
cornwall. One thing, I did not realise was that p.407 didn't use the
official figures so I suppose as some have mentioned, it's best to look at
Colin's figures.

Thanks again, an interesting debate indeed.
