I suppose cos it's September and not December that there is remarkably
little comment (in fact none) about the current developing Scan High, a
front down the North Sea, and the easterlies pushing into our Eastern
counties .Certain memebers of this group would be wetting themselves and
Will would have issued at least two warnings about the impending freeze.
What a difference a month makes...still could be signs of things to come
,after all these ghastly westerlies can't go on for ever......can they ?

They tend to stall at Iceland and the Baltic. Usually when stalled at
the Baltic, the spell changes and the low dissipates.

These particular spells seem to see the lows joining up at these
sticking places. It is interesting to watch them rotate and to fan out
afterwards.

Most interesting is that sometimes they come back from the graveyard.

Thank goodness the BBC has no interest in presenting the weather these
days. I might never have noticed. (This is in no way to be construed
as satisfaction with a smajor/smedium medium that aught to be
excoriated.)

Like this one. Usually when they reach Iceland there is no coming
back.

Looks like that high which may have separated the conjoining of said
low with it's twin from Newfoundland has failed to do so and the
repeat of last weeks spell is entraining.

Lookout Glocostersetshire.

Well it won't necessarily be warm weather or even particularly
sunny weather but for me it should at least be *dry* weather.
And that's exciting enough at the moment to be honest. After
seemingly months of endless rain, a chance for a week or
so not to have to worry about taking a bloody umbrella with
you everywhere....

I'm now kicking myself - I thought about saying something along these
lines myself, but got distracted.

The British are the only people that use a device to protect against the
sun, to protect against the rain . It just shows British ingenuity !
