Once a pattern becomes established, It is hard to change. A simple

extension to my forecast of 3 days ago. Looking for the change now.

**On Wednesday, 30th Oct, the UK will be continuing to experience

Zonal, Atlantic weather, with depressions bringing an alternation of

rain bands, showers and ridges of high pressure. Windy weather will be

common in many areas and there is the possibility of gales at times.

Despite some cooler period with NW winds, temperatures throughout the

period will be generally warmer than average, the chance of frosts

being limited to ridges of high pressure between low pressure systems.

Pressure will be higher over continental Europe. Rainfall will be above

average for most areas and some areas, espal train looks like it will

viecially the West, may be very wet.**







A zonal train. First time we've had this for a long time.



Again, hints of something different on the operationals last night but

again, just model froth and the zonal train looks as if it could roll

on into the start of November.



According to the asylum that is the Daily Express, the "storm of the

century" is only a few days away -

Yes, amazing isn't it? There will be a gust of 90mph on Cairngorm, or at Sule Skerry (hardly unusual in October) and gales elsewhere (there will almost certainly be gales elsewhere and especially in the West) and Powell and the Express will claim they were absolutely correct.

One day he'll forecast "fairly mild and breezy" and the Express will plaster it over the front page and page 5; but probably not in our lifetimes. *))
