I'm thinking the HP out in the Atlantic might eventually hold the key to our future sanity:
Will it ridge north all the way to Greenland, and provide us all with some much-needed early season snowfall with winds directly from the Arctic? Will it link-up with any height-rises that might form in the Scandinavia region and, once again, provide us all with some much-needed early season snowfall?
Or...will it simply sink into France-Spain or the Azores, and provide us with endless weeks' mild, damp dross?
In all honesty, I haven't a clue...
