1.6c White frost on the Cars

This person sums up it up On 01 Dec 2011, Saskia Steinhorst wrote: It seems to me that the weather prediction for mid to late November in itself wasn't an "error". The solar activity in region 1343-1342 on Nov 10th, small proton storm on Nov 26 and the filament eruption in solar spot 1353 on Nov 27, resulting in a full halo CME impacting earth on Nov 28 would throw any prognosis for a loop. This actually proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that earth's weather is directly influenced by solar activity (or inactivity) which can abruptly alter any "set" weather patterns. Piers predictions for November may have been "off" but his theory has been completely confirmed again ;-)

I think we are,

Meall a' Bhùiridh is a mountain on the edge of Rannoch Moor in the Highlands of Scotland. It lies near the top of Glen Coe and Glen Etive, overlooking the Kings House Hotel inn and the A82 road. The Glencoe Ski area is located on the northern slopes of the peak.

While i was looking at ssts for 2003 they resembled 2009-2010. Thats what made me think we would get a severe winter 09/10. So i begun a troll through presure patterns for september to march. 1919 is nearly a carbon copy of today. I havent much information on the hurricane season of 1919. But after the new year 1920 was a rather mild winter with a snowying period end of march 1920. By my reasoning, when the hurricane season is over hp will be able to establish to our west and a repeat of last year is on the cards. The reason i think we will have a cold winter is, the jet on a south ward track, low solar activity are ther main driving factors. I see a cold first half of autumn like 1919 and a cold start and end to winter, Not like january feb march 1920.

Just been looking at the archive winter of 1919-1920 weather patterns. Has anyone any info on that winter to hand.

This picture is from Firefly from Winterhighland. Picture from yesterday http://www.winterhig...e=19#msg-125634

Perfect Summary of whats going on right now. I do see what you are saying about atlantic systems not been able to break through, Low pressure systems are just dieing out in the north atlantic and heading to greenland. When the blocking starts to develop out over the west atlantic like last year, its going to be another cold winter.To me its not "if" any more just "when".

I envy you, Use to work up at Ft MacMurray. Some classic cold winters, well below zero, late ice breaks in May. Hope to get back there soon. Live it up there.

Severe Cold Winter

The mans a LEGAND.

Nice One

<P itxtvisited="1">MONDAY 3 AM <P itxtvisited="1">LATE WEEK SNOWS LIKELY IN LONDON <P itxtvisited="1">Okay thaw is over.. time for more fun and games. <P itxtvisited="1">The next 5 days will find the upper ridge popping back northwest over Iceland which turns Great Britain into an Iceland. I think the heaviest snows of the season are on the way for the southeastern part of Great Britain ( London) as the deep northeast flow and the very chilly air coming over the water picks up plenty of moisture and the snow flies a new later Thursday into Friday. In any case as we approach Valentines day we find much of Europe in classic cold with the mid and late week maps featuring and icelandic high pressure aloft and plenty of low pressure aloft from Spain to the Balkans and the drainage southwest of cold air back into the west. Make sure you have something, and someone to keep you warm. ciao for now ****
