What is causing the Jet Stream to take such a Southerly track at the
moment, and are there any signs of it moving further North?

The southerly Jet Stream has just got a mention on
BBC 1 News weather forecast. In the US it's
mentioned all the time and seemed to be an accurate
predictor of the general weather. If it came South,
Washington DC used to get Canadian weather, cool
and dry. When it moved North we used to get Mexican
weather, hot and humid. I often wonder why it's not
used here more often. It seems to have predicted the
current spell of cool weather pretty accurately.
