Brrrrrr.....

Irish Independent reports

The British Met Office has warned power suppliers to be braced for the extra demand on gas and electricity.

...the UK Met Office includes the whole of Ireland in its predictions, which show our winter will be cooler than average.

The evidence is drawn from the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO), a concept associated with winter fluctuations in temperatures, rainfall and storminess in Europe.

The NAO is negative for winter 2005/2006, meaning westerly winds are weaker or less persistent, northern Europe is colder and drier, and southern Europe warmer and wetter than average.


Further encouragement to join the birds and migrate for the winter.
