Winter Walk

conifers at Langsett

With our Christmas finally sorted, it’s time for one our wilder walks around the reservoir at Langsett.

A stable mass of high pressure is starting to establish itself over Britain, forcing the jet stream into an Ω (omega)-shaped diversion right around it to the north.

The reservoir has filled up since our last visit.

This morning, the Pennine watershed marks the division between air masses and we can see a large grey cloud hanging over Manchester and rolling over the moor tops to envelop the Holme Moss transmitter but it doesn’t make any progress towards us.
