Met Office Still Rubbish Shocker
Metcheck.com, who correctly forecast the deluges that hit Britain in the summer have told us to prepare for one of the coldest winters on record.
They predict regular cold snaps until Christmas and prolonged bleak spells in January.
"The cold snap next week is nature giving us a taste of what is to come in the next few months".
They also predict, "bitterly cold winds in the south and snowfall in the north and there would then be a very cold spell between 22-27 November".
So what do the Met Office say? "it is very difficult to forecast so far in advance." Yup, but that's your job, isn't it?
"We are expecting the weather to turn cool, but further than that it's hard to say." ...er ok.
When asked what the Met Office forecast could be for winter, they said: "We expect temperatures to drop in winter".
Fantastic! So it'll get colder in the winter. How about, "It'll be wetter when it rains" or "it'll get darker at night-time".
They say, "We prefer to offer quality rather than quantity," I can do that, according to my thru the window observation - "it's currently cloudy in Central London, it'll get colder as the temperature falls".
