    Volcanic Activity Thread!

    All I can see are clouds?

    I thought they were far cumulus clouds at first too but if you look at the refresh they seem to move (and rise up) too quick for that? This is the direction of the volcano anyway - as this image appeared on websites yesterday when those distant clouds were far darker.

    Just to be clear, I'm referring to the billowing clouds in the far distance, not the near small ones that sometimes block the view.

    Woke up to a couple of cm's here. Going into town for college now- I se on the webcams that snow has actually stuck there too which is very rare.

    New MetEireann warning-

    Severe Weather Warning

    Heavy snowfall will affect mainly East Leinster today and tonight.

    Average snowfall 3-8 cm, but drifting may lead to higher accumulations.

    John Cox is a real stalwart on this site and a really keen "weather observer" in his native parts.

    . Records and keeps data as well a watcher of nature and the seasons. John takes in a lot of interest on what experts have to say on netweather.tv forum. His posts and thoughts are highly valued by myself ,and I also know by some of the other experts on this forum.

    Ok...that's great but how does it relate to my post? I merely qustioned how the 'summer temps have been the lowest in years' and I brought up the fact that the records show there is no real correlation between a cold summer and a cold winter in our small corner of the world.

    Hi rc28,

    Personally and from what I have read hear on NW from the experts; Summer SST's have a big bearing on our winter weather and vice versa and they are much colder this summer than usual. To say that there is no link between summer weather and what the winter weather will be is a not correct. Cause and effect. With the weather, one season's weather will always affect another. The temps of the oceans do have a large effect on our weather.

    But time and time again it has been shown, on weather sites like this, that cold summers don't correspond to cold winters although i would see why one would think otherwise. We occupy a tiny part of the north atlantic and just because we are having a crap summer (and the waters around us are colder) doesn't mean there will automatically be a colder winter(seeing as the warm gulf stream is such a powerful moderator of our climate). Has the temperature of the north atlantic drift taken a dramatic dip or is it just the shallow seas that surround us?
