Any views on the coming winter Philip?

It'll be an interesting one.


Because all winters are interesting? Or do you have reason to
think that
it may be out of the ordinary?

Ah, you can read me like a book. John. I do sometimes
despair of those usw-ers whose world revolves around
snow and thunder. What unfulfilled lives they must lead.
All weather is, of course, endlessly fascinating.


Couldn't agree more, Philip. Every synoptic chart is utterly unique.
Every day's weather is utterly unique. Enjoy what you have today,
whatever it is, and don't get all hung up about what some model hints at
for 10 days into the future.

Having worked as a forecaster in so many places around the world I would
say that this country has some of the most fascinating weather I have
come across, and some of the most difficult to forecast with any useful
level of accuracy.

Interesting site. I have a feeling that October is going to be much
wetter
though!

I only heard recently, that in 1987 the Eastern side of the
Isle-of-Sheppey
was completely cut off for six weeks. Everything was being air lifted in.
At both Warden Bay and Leysdown-on-Sea, the sea froze solid. I've even
seen a few old photo's, truly incredible...


I know that the shift staff at the Isle of Grain LNG storage plant were cut
off for some considerable time by the snow which was very impressive in its
depth. I think they had to fly essential provsions in for some time. I was
told this by the former plant manager a few years later.
