Default Name that symbol?

I've uploaded the MO chart for boxing day so it doesn't disapear. Just
wanted to know what the symbol was over the Irish Sea and western
England and Wales. It looks a little like a poorly draw xmas tree to
me. Take a look at the Link below:

I was about to ask the same question and, no, it is not shown on that
FAQ page. For a different link, see OO UTC SUN 26 in:-

http://meteonet.nl/aktueel/brackall.htm

My best guess would be some sort of complex trough, although a complex
mixture of the office party punch cannot be totally ruled out.

My apologies, Martin. I have just had another look at the FAQ and found
it in the bottom right hand corner (Z). I see that it is a convergence
zone.

It's a hijacker to a Yorkshire newspaper. Mind you I am using Firefox
and that is full of hijackers.

.... and my apologies for jumping in with *my* post ;-) Put it down to
just finding a leak of coolant from the car ;-(
