Snowy thoughts :-)

Hi Keith

Have left Dorset for a few days for Bedford where it is really
suprisingly mild - half expected it to be a bit chillier.
I have not been out much as the Mrs developed a virus and has been in
bed for the best part of 3 days so I have been pounding up and down
stairs doing the nursing bit. (She had the seasonal flu jab in one arm
and oink flu in the other a week ago or so, but this is not related).
There seems to have been a heck of a lot of posting about this cold
'event' but my gut feeling is that it just is not going to get cold
enough. I caught sight of a few charts the other day ( I can access
FNMOC here but not in Dorset) and was stunned to see (then) high
pressure across to the North Atlantic sort of stretching into
Scandinavia. It was really exciting at first, but it seems there is
not going to be much of a cold push westwards to us.

But it is interesting that it is on the cards that this regime can
carry on until 2010, and the newsgroup has plenty of postings which
enlivens the day somewhat

Regards
