The westerlies continued on from mid January through much of February as well as March, reflected nicely with a persistent +AO/NAO. Warmer than average has been the rule but not without a chillier end to the month as per my March Outlook. From late winter to early spring, rainfall distribution returned to a typical climatalogical […]
The pattern which carried through the back half of January largely continued in February with dominant westerlies. A distinct cool North, mild South for not only UK but Europe. Cold and dry Scandi & Baltic Region, exceptionally mild and wet France/Spain/Portugal. See February Recap! Is there any hints of change into the first month of […]

The northerly, packing 30 to 50+mph gusts shall usher in increasingly heavy and frequent snow showers. Low level accumulations of 5-10cm and 10-20, locally 30+ over high, exposed ground. A yellow snow and ice warning is […]
December and meteorological winter starts mild and wet with the Atlantic the rule. The tail end of November finished with a rare SSW but being of the reflective type and supportive of North American cold outbreaks, the result for Europe is a stronger jet and reinforced low pressure dominance. While the MJO is strongly in […]
