Does that apply to the rest of the World too becasue from what I can make out it's only Ireland that's suffering this particular maladie of season non-differenciation.

No, just Ireland. Next up on the list is economic disaster.

No.

Wait.

Sorry, that was earlier on the list.

Well on the upside if the world does end this mid winter at least it will stop raining. Unfortunately I fear we'll all wake up on December 22nd with no Christmas shopping done and it will be around 13 degrees with a nasty heavy mist (basically today but 5 degrees colder)

Right, I'm off to buy a wood burner, so.

It'll probably be the mildest winter in 500 years.

davidsr20 · 28-07-2012, 20:12

I really hope we get some cold this year. An other mild winter would be very bad ,

ShawB · 29-07-2012, 18:29

Just a thought was last Winter colder than some previous years?

Yes we got nothing because of the Azores High over us but did the rest of the Northern Hemisphere recieved more or less snow/cold weather than average?

Alaska last year got huge amounts of snow and the European big freeze come to mind.

So what would be the general consensus?

Just a thought was last Winter colder than some previous years? No, it was very mild, we actually did not put on heating on Dec 26th (St Stephens Day). I don't recall any snow either.

Yes we got nothing because of the Azores High over us but did the rest of the Northern Hemisphere recieved more or less snow/cold weather than average? We escaped the worst of the weather that hit Europe and our neighbours.

Alaska last year got huge amounts of snow and the European big freeze come to mind.
So what would be the general consensus? We had a mild winter and we escaped the harsh cold weather that hit Europe especially Italy where snow levels around Opi 150km east of Rome hit levels that forced wolves down from the hills to roam for food in the town of Opi. (see attached picture from Feb 2012)
