Sunny in Newhaven
Sunny in Newhaven
showing it's settled
I've enjoyed these frosty, sunny days of late, but is that the end of the cold for the foreseeable?
Incidentally, I was amazed at the temperature difference when I drove down to the coast on Boxing Day; 3 deg C all the way down from Beckenham until we got to the Amex, then up to 7 deg C by the time we got the A259 on the coast. I didn't think the difference would be that marked.

Woke up this morning at 7 frosty as by half 7 all gone in Lewes got to Ringmer thick frost and a good morning for ferreting was had.
Is that it for now? Clearly warming up for the next ten days or so. Loved the frost but where was the snow?
I can't cope with another winter with none of the white stuff.
Jet stream trajectory suggests strong, mobile, changeable, westerly flow over UK for most of January, hence series of Low pressure systems bringing frequent spells of wind and rain across the country.

Little sign of what is needed for a serious cold spell and high likelihood of some serious snow, namely an anticyclone over Scandinavia, and low pressure resident over France, feeding in a bitterly cold easterly airflow originating from Siberia - which is my favourite winter weather pattern.
I'm very disappointed with the current weather situation and forecast for January; BORING!
