Azores high next week
 

Hi

From the charts it looks like the Azores high is making a return next
week. My interest in meteorology overlaps nicely with one of my other
interests which is sailing and the like. Next Monday or Tuesday I want
to shift a smallish boat from the N Wales coast over to the Isle of Man.
On board there'll be a couple of non-sailors who don't fancy ten hours
or so hanging over the side.

The current charts look promising with the north Irish Sea seemingly set
for fairly light winds during the period. Any of you real experts out
there, compared to my enthusiastic numpty status, like to hazard a guess
as to how likely it is that actual conditions next week will bear some
resemblance to the current forecast charts please?

Promise no-one on this group will be blamed for any incidences of
mal-de-mer which may arise during our forthcoming trip.

Cheers
