'A significant storm is likely mid-month'. Nice and vague as usual. What kind of storm, gales, blizzards, heavy rain? And where in the country? Not to mention no definition of what is meant by 'mid month'. This one is so vague that he will claim 'victory' out of just about anything, and that's the way Corbyn likes it. -- Col Bolton, Lancashire 160m asl |

Younger brother Jeremy has been an MP since 1983.
I can't help feeling sorry for the Corby parents - two sons with ambitions to be economical with the truth. Sorry, that's not fair on Corby jnr. Politicians are ALWAYS scrupulously straight talking aren't they? Well aren't they? I hang on their every word. Mind you, I guess I'm calling the kettle black. Older son is at University studying politics. Younger son is at sixth form college studying......politics. So be warned. Watch out for the Harrison con men in the coming decades:-) Jack |

As for 'mid month', well that could mean anything in the Corbynish language from the 5th to the 25th. We'd do better using climatology (again) and that's free. -- Dave |

Mind you, no media interest in that. Doubtless a dumping of Snow on the Highlands, and 50mm rain in the Western Isles sometime mid month (ish) along with a few severe weather warnings from the Met Office will be enough for Mr Corbyn to claim 90% accuracy. He even manages to claim partial success for January. Ian (a very spring like Raunds) |

Whilst his full "forecast" isn't available above, he does do it for the Netherlands. http://www.lowefo.com/pdf/Forecast_F...etherlands.pdf He's already admitting his forecast for the first six days of February was wrong. " The forecast for the weather period 1-6.2 was unsuccessful. We have found maps for the look-back periods, which extend further East than the ones we have been using. We hope that these shall enable us to make better forecasts for the Netherlands in future." -- Mike Tullett - Coleraine 55.13°N 6.69°W posted 09/02/2008 16:01:55 GMT |

Yes indeed you did Will ![]() climatology was of course relative to Corbyn's discredited (as far as I'm concerned) solar methods. -- Dave |
