In answer to the previous message: If he looks at todays synoptic chart he
will see that there is a trough extending out from the low pressure and
waving front over europe. This is enough to explain how some stations in
the north midlands have westerly winds while others futher south have a
south eaterly direction; I other words the winds are following the
direction of the isobars round the trough.
Hope this is helpfull!


Thank you for that.

I was surprised because the some of the winds either side of the trough were
at 180deg to each other.
