Where are the westerly,s

I actually read in "new scientist" (boffin mag) that the lack of SW wind/change in the jet stream is due to the low solar activity at the mo not heating a specific section of the upper atmosphere, and this causes the high altitude jet streams to shift. They change their minds in that mag every month though. Other times of extreme documented UK cold through continental winds correlate to low solar output levels... They said they have records going back a long way. So give the sun a sir!!!

Having just returned from a tour of the shops it's obvious no one is riding. It's really bad. The season just hasn't started! and it's the middle of May!!

Keep your eye on the forecast tho, and don't loose heart... Feel for the windsurfers though..

These easterly airstreams are bad news for every wind powered industry... :-(
