I can remember when these conditions would have resulted in two feet of snow. Sadly it's all melted away in the Manchester area as well. In Manchester, maybe, but still lying several inches deep in Mossley. -- Martin Clark Mossley, Greater Manchester |

.. The problem is that global warming has increased the temperature of the North Sea, so the easterlies are being warmed up sufficiently that the temperature is hovering just above zero, rather than dropping below zero as it used to. Don't agree with this theory because they are now at 6C on our coast and only 2C on the other side by Norway. What would they have been in an old fasioned early January? No lower than this and we still got cold dry easterly's in January. IMHO it's because the air has been very moist and not that cold to start with and the soil, in the south anyway, is well above freezing and warmer than the air above. Surfaces like cars and dustbin lids (plastic) have frozen water droplets but the grass is unusually uncrunchy and just wet. Dave |

Felly sgrifennodd lawrence Jenkins :
Almost a white out for a ten minute period. Is that the same thing as a "near white-out"? If so, you could be in trouble here! Adrian -- Adrian Shaw ais@ Adran Cyfrifiadureg, Prifysgol Cymru, aber. Aberystwyth, Ceredigion, Cymru ac. http://users.aber.ac.uk/ais uk |
