no jhortlund.. obviously it is co2 rain.. the co2 causes cold and heat and rain and it does it all by sneaking up behind it.

Best of wishes to you guys in england.. your weather is bad enough without all this rain.

We had our normal july day or two of rain for a couple of hours here... something we had missed for a few years earlier.   Temp is about normal here... maybe a little lower on average than the hundred year average.

One theory I've seen mentioned is its due to the Jet stream moving more south than it normally is normally at this time of year it should pass more north of the UK helping to take the weather systems above the UK.

Just this year the Jet stream is moving over the top of the UK and so the weather systems are moving directly SW starting with UK then any bits of Northern Europe on the route and dumping all the rain on us :(

Its also been mentioned its a La Nina year so the colder than normal surface sea temps off of peru could be affecting global weather/jet stream patterns.

I'm no expert at all just a passing interest in weather due to being a surfer.

Wish it was winter this was snow instead :aok

England is about as far north as Alaska is.  They are very lucky to have the weather they have (except for the flooding).  The ocean keeps England from getting the brutal winters that the European continent gets.
