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.

Right there Will. I kept hearing of double figures in temps but it's a

dull, miserable chilly day here in SE London. I was hoping to cut the

grass.



Us too But we have had double figure max temps here on the other

side of the Ravensbourne for a week now (ex Tuesday, which just dipped

below 10C), and max today was 12.4C at 13:52. Is it colder up there on

the heights of Sydenham?
