... (03/1455Z JAN2011): OAT= +4.5°C // DP= 0.0°C: slight rain for the
most part in past 30-40 mins, only a little melted snow at the start of
that period - wet bulb too high currently for anything 'wintry'.
Surfaces damp. Cloud looking a bit convective.

past hour; looking at the Hurn DP ( a few miles to the south of us /
+1.7), I think the curly occlusion must be somewhere down the Poole Road!


That curly occlusion appeared on the Bracknell FSXX a couple of days ago. It
looked really strange but it has come off! What has caused it? It could be a
kind of thermally forced low I guess as ascents have been unstable, bit like
a pseudo polar low maybe? Any thoughts Martin?
