Cold and snowy winters follow warm summers in Scotland, well, that's the
theory.

Does that cold necessarily comes from the continent, Alex?

I think that the coldest and snowiest winters in Scotland generally come
on northerlies, unlike in most of England, where they come on
easterlies. Two reasons: Scotland is closer to the Arctic, and the North
Sea is wider up there so easterlies have more chance to get warmed by
the sea. So I think that the answer to your question would be "no".

In that case
there also are some chances for us.
Oh, well, you can keep the snow; the cold will be enough for me :-)).



I don't think that many usw readers would agree with that.
