Around Wednesday, a storm depression will track close enough to the north to being strong winds and rain there but southern areas may escape quiet well. After the storm depression clears into the Baltic Sea, things become much quieter and current indications are that b Thursday, Friday and Saturday will be much drier and quieter as pressure build from the south. After this the fun starts, will the high pressure settle to the north or east to allow winter temps to set in so we can start looking at the risk of snow and very cold conditions, will the high stay to the south, keeping things dry and mild, will it settle in the Atlantic to the west of Ireland, opening the floodgates for dry but bitter arctic air to flood south or will it pull back to the SW, allowing the cold northwesterly regime to return with very unsettled conditions ? An update to the November forecast will be issued in the monthly section of Reality Weather on Sunday and will take a closer look at the distant possibilities. Don’t miss it, —Ray
