No not a sense of desperation. im not taking that info from the forecasting sites, im looking at the charts and there is going to be a run of cold northerlies at the start of next week.
Sunday to Tuesday has a deepening area of low pressure moving south and ending up just to the south of Bulgaria pulling in even colder North Easterlies and what looks like a pretty good dump.
Obviously things can change but thats what it looks like at the moment.
