Default Sunday 'interesting' or typically English?

Just had the quickest of looks at

http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/..._pressure.html for
[currently] T +72 & T + 84 - Sunday 22 June 2008

Only a forecast for three days ahead, but...

Isobars to my inexpert eye are not especially tight, but the low which
is to arrive from the south on Saturday night above northern England is
shown to have occluded front curving back rather impressively.


The phrase 'sting jet' comes to mind, based purely on shape of system
and direction of approach. Guess that it really won't have the magnitude
of pressure/temperature differences for anything terribly impressive.
MetO http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/...orecast_uv.htm
shows no more than 22mph gust for Sunday [1]. Should just be a typical
English summer's day?

Anyone care to give a more informed comment, please?



[1] Would perhaps coincide with scheduled musical performance Sunday
lunchtime in Guildford high Street. Could take cover under Tunsgate.

Line squall or misocyclone on CF with attendant 'mini - tornadoes' set
to send tubas, trombones and players skywards in your area on Sunday???

Very clever; placing the words 'tornadoes' and 'tuba' in the same
sentence... was that intentional, Les? With your knowledge of the
latin names for cloud types, I suspect it might have been.
