A slushy covering in places, mainly high ground, but little chance of settling on roads otherwise. Verges and whatnot maybe. Stephen. |

the last time that i looked a 'forecast' was a prediction of something
that will/might happen - that's probably why it hasn't happened yet and in particular when it's the forceast for tomorrow!! Been described as 'any fool' is really one of the kindest compliments bestowed upon me of late. define rural and Northerner. rural is surely well understood whether you linve N E S or W. Northerner is far more subjective, someone living in Penrith is a southerner to someone 19 miles up the road at carlisle!! somoene that I knew once said there wasn't anything decent south of the M62, bit harsh one feels. But obviously Orkney and Shetland makes you fairly Northern, but is that not also an islander, a scottish islander, is someone from Orkney not a southerner to someone from Shetland? |

Tudor Hughes, Warlingham, Surrey. I'm not or haven't been careering around any room Tudor. I just sit down, close my eyes and imagine the steam hissing out of the end of your trombone. And if I were a clockwork train it would a hornby dublo unlike your wishy washy triang. I see posts on here moaning about the MSM sensationalising the weather yet they only have to visit the UKMO warning web pages where only recently the yellow peril threatened the very existence of the British Isles at one stage. |

I agree on the part about this North south thing-that does get tiring. |

Yes the NvS thing is boring, but then divides do not just exist
between North and South, one example: Back home N.Notts and Lincolnshire border is the river Trent, for the Lincs yellow bellies if you were from Notts you were "other side of water." and that was it. divides are boring, unlike the weather, but like the weather is very much there. |

I suppose one other test might be thus:
1" of snow up here = no mention in the media 1" of snow midlands and south = mention in the media |
