As soon as things don't change the way Will indicates they are going to, have you noticed how he tries to forget what he says, never returning to it if it pans out wrong and instead tells us that we're about to go "straight into summer" next weekend. Then he calls other, far more experienced and respected meteorologists for saying "silly things". The rosicrucians would be proud of you Will. *)) |

notice............ It is much further south than climatology across the vast majority of the Atlantic at this moment in time. -- Freddie Bayston Hill Shropshire 102m AMSL http://www.hosiene.co.uk/weather/ https://twitter.com/#!/BaystonHillWx for hourly reports |

I'm just happy to be able to go outside and not feel cold when the wind blows at the moment. I have become so used to the biting winds of late that this new direction feels like I'm on the Canary Islands in comparison! Simon |

When Will created this thread on 4th April the Jet was very far south heading in to the straights of Gibraltar, it has since buckled with a brief ridge over the UK (14 April, 10 days later) giving unsettled weather for most of the UK & some warmer sunny spells in the SE of England (if they are lucky).
Over the next few days the Jet flattens again, but pointing more or less straight at the UK, again this will give unsettled weather for most of the UK, though the SE way fair a little better. Expectations by some were for fine, warm & settled Spring weather, by way of the Jet being to the North of the UK for a prolonged period (longer than just a weekend) THAT HASN'T HAPPENED NOR IS IT FORECAST TO IN THE NEXT 5 DAYS. I hope that helps explain it Dawlish. |

I hope that helps explain it Dawlish. And who was expecting "fine, warm & settled Spring weather"? Name sonmeone. There's a bit of a strawman, don't you think? Will deliberately constructed it and you've fallen for it. I know all about what has happened to the jet and I know all about what Will was talking about - i.e it staying well south of the UK. What has happened to it was exactly what the models were predicting; hence my forecast. It was also what Will was not **wanting** and there's the nub. It is certainly not "way too far south" - which is the implied prediction from our dear Haytor resident and the meaning there was; "way too far south of the UK". BTW; no-one, AFAIK has mentioned that the Jet was going to be to the North of the UK for a prolonged period. You've made that up, haven't you and shouted a bit to try to be heard better. Well done. Not my fault that Will never returns to these hopecasts (and this one certainly was - a hope for continued cold which hasn't been realised) and leaves it to other sycophants to interpret them in hindsight, dear boy. Don't be taken in, would be my advice. Hope that helps to explain it, in terms that don't involve shouting, oh anonymous one. |

Where is that setting? I don't know, because I never use the blighter. But I do know that it never snips (thus producing huge long strings of irrelevancies), mangles posts (as it's mangled the one you sent), and unless you keep an eye on it (because it alters settings without your permission), starts sending copies of posts as emails to the poster you're replying to. Which all means that any sensible matter in the post gets submerged under miscellaneous crap.... ![]() PS High of 20.8 here this afternoon! -- Kate B PS nospam means nospam.
