Hoping for a Christmas weather miracle

Maybe because we get a lot of it, the weather definitely defines us up here in northern England.  Living on the western side of the country, close to mountains, the sea and a wide river estuary, there are a lot of opportunities for weather to dominate our lives. Inevitably, there is a lot of relief rainfall which can cause our rivers to rise and fall dramatically in a matter of hours but we are also affected by warm westerly fronts which collide frequently and  dramatically with colder weather from the east.  Here’s hoping for a fine weather miracle over Christmas!
