This also adds fuel to the cold winter scenario, with the high SST's
in the Med, the occurance of cyclogenis's is more likely down their
with high pressure blocking to the north. Of course a Bartlett High
could fall into this category, although these may be a little further
south.


Well, Keith I'll sign for that winter :-)). Starting actually third of
december with some light night frost; snow on Boxing Day; followed by
moderate to heavy frost during the last week of December and the first days
of January. Then some thaw -- jan 12 10.1 C (!) -- but again a frosty period
from jan 17th -- until jan 25 severe night frost; and light to moderate
during the day :-)). Period of ice ended unfortunately February 10 th 1996.

Can remember my son's first skating tour -- 80 km; he was eleven years old
and insisted to come with me :-).
Half dead afterwards; but very very proud of his medal.
