    ... different, in so far as [I think] the word you're looking for is 'trough', Steve.

    But note: type though, relates to atmospheric pressure ... NOT the sort used by animals - and politicians, of course, in Dedworth's opinion - for feeding.

    Have you noticed recently Arthur that the Weather broadcasters have been using words like, windier and sunnier instead of saying more windy or more sunshine, what is the correct term to use?

    ... blow me, Michael! ... well, BOTH are permissible really, I suppose. Although, in my considered opinion - placing them in the order you have here - the *latter description is [likely] to sound the more grammatically-CORRECT of the two ... if you get my drift.
