Artic Blast
 
I cannot help feeling that the so called Artic blast will be little more
than a couple of days of sunshine with a cold wind, certainly here in south
Essex. Northerly winds are never our best direction for snow and the only
hope would be a polar low tracking down the East coast. Give me a Scandi
high any time and feel the real cold as in January 87.

.... oh, I don't know: those Norbert Dentressangle rigs always scare me,
and as for the local Waitrose mob, well .... ;-)

Or Feb, 91. -5 maximums, heavy snow showers, and persistant snow also. Great
stuff! Last proper Easterly was Jan '97 I guess.... never really got going,
but a cold month nevertheless.
West Kent.
