news We have now had one day of "decent" weather since Christmas. Almost every
day bar last Sunday has been dire with it barely getting light during the
day. I can't wait for the change to come next week so long as it brings
some clear skies. I'm not bothered about a cold spell anymore as that
looks
as far off as ever but the promise of normal High Pressure next week is
welcome. This is why I prefer cold to mild - because there is less chance
of it being like this!

Thirded - this is the kind of winter weather that I hate.... mild damp and
dreary.

Fourthed. Gloom, pervading damp, and oppressive humidity are the three
reasons (in order) why I'm hoping this changes soon, and, to be
honest, why in most years, in our climate, January is one of my least
favourite months. Thankfully by next week we'll be more than half way
through it. Bring on the snow, but if not, bring on the spring!

Yep. The dreaded most awful very mild Sw'ly weather type in winter. A mild
snap. Not long to wait now till the 18th when the skies will brighten and we
will get some lovely cold dry air back (sub 528 DAM in places in the north).
Soon after we will get the bitter cold in and eventually the snow. Yes I
know models don't indicate quite that, but they are all over the place as I
expected. I go no further than 5 days at present - max. After that it's a
dynamical appraisal!
