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


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?

Yes but I do get the Foehn effect from the pounds shops.




Lawrence, you need to untick that box in Google Groups that also sends

this as email....

No problem Kate but ever since I moved for OE to google groups I haven't touched any settings and just presumed things were okay. Where is that setting?
