OK we will certainly lose the easterly but from the Midlands northwards is

it really going to get much milder after we lose the sun and still stay in

relatively deep cold air? I think not. I also heard today on R4 the

presenter saying she is "looking forward" to the milder weather next week.

What she does not realise is that in the south at least there is the

potential for a lot of wind and rain and for the north more snow. I know

this easterly is far too cold for many because of the low wet-bulb

temperatures, but at least it is mainly bone dry and one can get out and do

things, unless you have deep snow cover which the majority don't have. The

one consolation for wet is that plant growth will start in eaernest and it

won't rain all the time.

I guess what a lot of people really want is a summery Azores high and we

ain't going to get that, it is going to be a long process of warming up with

the jet still way far south. Keep the expectation down, deep cold air will

never be far away in the next two weeks.

Yes; "relief".

The presenters are representing a *huge* majority of people in the UK who are sick of the cold for this winter. You aren't. It's as simple as that.
