Back to meteorology. ISTM that the 564 DAM air to our SW is providing
"fuel" that is helping to maintain a more southerly location of the jet. I
said in another thread that I thought that the 564 DAM line was just a bit
further north than it should be. I wonder if this is a sign of things to
come in the next few years - wetter and more cloudy summers, contrary to
what GW "experts" predict for the UK.
Or is it all down to synoptics and a one-off? Having said that July can
often be a cyclonic month so perhaps we shouldn't worry too much, but the
persistent closeness of that warm and moist 564 DAM air is bothering me -
summat's up :-)
