Default North Atlantic cools a little more

Might be interesting up here in such a scenario. Lying snow in a straight westerly showery airstream (as opposed to a NW)isn't all that common here but it does happen, especially in late winter when the sea is obviously colder.

We will see if this pattern of a colder Atlantic persists, it's been around for a while now I think, late spring/early summer?
