Paul, but with time being short I have to prioritise
Bill S , I don't feel like it's old age so it must be something else? let us know.
we have survived with less heating in the house than is often the case in November.
that's exactly the type of info that I was looking for, thanks.
the last few days have been slightly spooky, for instance yesterday morning it was in the 20's in Wales , 26F and 28F etc...etc...
upon investigation using google earth I found that
these temps were only in the higher elevated areas
around 700ft - 1000ft or so.
I'm blaming that on the winds above the higher elevated air
and in some areas the temps were in the 30's just
by the sea
shore only these areas have a high cliff that blocks the warm ocean air from coming ashore.
ocean water temps have maintained apx 45-51 F and the air above the ocean water is usually only a degree or two below the water temp.
when I looked this morning at the temps in and
around Portsmouth
they were around 42F and the channel water temps were at 58F !!! I'm thinking that the channel water is
providing this heat to the
southern cities of the UK...
and thanks again Bill S.
