High pressure in the Atlantic

Today's Met Office FAX chart (1200) shows a High south of Newfoundland with central pressure 1051 mb. Does anyone know if this is a record for an Atlantic High or if not, what the record is? It's certainly the highest I have seen. Tudor Hughes, Warlingham, Surrey. Tudor I have the gridded data back to 1948 at least, it just needs some code writing to search and list the extremes. In the mean time I found this PDF that has a mid- Atlantic January high from 2003 of 1057 hPa! http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/wea.35/pdf Bruce. |

I'd simply forgotten about the 1057 mb in 2003. This is extraordnarily high, higher than anything recorded in the UK and at a latitude south of most of it. This has prompted me to dig out some old Weather magazines (mine go back to 1981) which of course I should have done in the first place. Thanks again. Tudor Hughes, Warlingham, Surrey. |
