    so winter 2013/2014 broke records for wind, rain and high temperatures, no doubt what ever next winter brings, it's highly unlikely to be anything like the one we've just experienced. Im sure these records will spread all the way past Moscow at least for winter warmth and wind. At a guess I expect next winter can only be less windy, more frosty at least and not as mild as this one. Perhaps we will see an easterly next winter, it's been 3 years since we've had a decent stab at it.

    Speak for yourselves. We'd a colder than average winter down here (apparently!) ..."Mean air temperatures were on or above LTA everywhere except for Cork Airport and Markree. Differences ranged from 0.1°C below at Cork Airport and Markree with a mean temperature of 5.7°C and 5.5°C repectively".

    If anyone wants to see some snow this summer, the new season at the Fonna Glacier ski resort in Norway is about a month away. They currently have too much snow however.
