Snowmageddon - this Friday
Discussion
According to the BBC weather forecast this morning, the next ice age will get into full swing this Friday in the SouthWest of England.
Heavy and persistent snow will fall on frozen ground during the day and snowy cold weather will follow.
I suspect its all to do with MMGW. Or solar flares.
If it doesn't cause 'traffic chaos' I'll be very disappointed with the BBC.

The problem with snow here is the often quoted 'wrong kind of snow'.....
On the continent, the weather is usually a lot colder, and when the snow falls it remains crisp and 'dry'. Whereas in the UK it usually turns to a slush and then refreezes. The snow clearing machines used in many countries wouldn't cope with this kind of stuff. So we're left with ploughing it off the roads instead of using the kind of blowers they use in many countries that get months of snowy weather. And ploughs rely on good traction to force the snow away.
