Were there ever hopes of a heatwave? I mean really? How can you dash what never existed?
Theres rarely a day when either the Mail or Express don't have a doom laden weather related front page.
Fair enough. I don't read the Mail enough to know what their usual reports are. Theres rarely a day when either the Mail or Express don't have a doom laden weather related front page.
Just heard about it on the news and hit google.WhoseGeneration said:
Oh well, that's that there Global Warming for you.
What's that you tell me, I'm out of date, it's now "Climate Change"?
We've gone beyond that again I'm afraid, we started with "global Warming" and it seems the climate didn't get the message and refused to warm, then came "Climate Change" but, embarrassingly for those that used the phrase, it became apparent that this is something the climate has always done - the alternative would be "climate stasis" which the earth has never seen. I believe the new phrase is "Climate weirding" so those with the program can point at any unusual weather event and say "it's all your fault.." What's that you tell me, I'm out of date, it's now "Climate Change"?

It says 'Daily Mail' and 'news' in the same sentence. That rag should be considered nothing more than a version of the Sunday Sport.
As usual - knee jerk in 'way off the mark' shocker.It says 'Daily Mail' and 'news' in the same sentence. That rag should be considered nothing more than a version of the Sunday Sport.
The info presented was from the Met Office, not some seaweed and a fir cone hanging up in the DM Editor's office.
That said, the seaweed and fir cone would probably do a better job.
But snowfall is a thing of the past and it's warm winters and even warmer summers from 2001 on.. This can't be right, someone call mother nature and tell her she's wrong, because we have a bunch of scientists and politicians who make millions of pounds out this so they can't be lying....

Agreed the information originally came from the Met Office, but the spin put on it by various newspapers is down to them.The info presented was from the Met Office, not some seaweed and a fir cone hanging up in the DM Editor's office.

Here are some facts, and forget all about global warming or the lack of it or whatever today's reason is for the weather being on the change. This weather isn't unusual for the UK at this time of year.
It is mid-April. You don't get "Arctic blasts" in mid-April. We have a northerly flow of air at the moment. It might get a bit parky for April, but in a few days the pattern will change again. If it does happen to snow, given the fact its mid-April it will be gone in a day or so.

I remember it snowing at Easter just a few years ago.I've known it snow in May - in the south of England BTW. Nothing that unusual about getting snow in April
But as I said in my last post, if it does happen to snow, given the fact its mid-April it will be gone in a day or so.
To summarise: "Right wing tabloid press in weather scare story shocker"
Its probably the EU's fault .....
