owned_by_a_catEnglish weather is a byword, of course, but so is English weather forecasting.
In October 1987, southern England woke to widespread devastation after a famous weather forecast that declared: There will be no hurricane in Britain tonight.
Wrong!
This time, they're playing it safe. If I believe what I read, we will be buried in snow tomorrow morning. And it will snow every day between now and Tuesday. The white stuff started coming down about an hour ago... and right now it looks cute. But I rather wish I'd paid attention to the forecast a bit earlier, because I'm for once having my shopping delivered tomorrow lunchtime and there's not a single bottle of wine in the house.
Serves me right for being so pleased about not having any appointments today...
