And another one quietly bites the dust.

Max temp on 16th @ 400m = +6 C with 3 knots of wind.

In that case, he should have included "at times" "in places" "here and there" "occasionally" "possibly" and all the other words and phrases included in forecasts to make them impossible to get wrong.

The period began on the 16th, and we are now almost at the end of the 19th, which in my book is four days without any bitterly cold weather.

What is it about the word "becoming" that you don't understand? Or
"week?" Or "16th-23rd?"

I think I have already had that point made, but if the bullies wish to gather in order to shut me up for merely pointing out the failure of a prediction that now it seems was so generalised to be meaningless, then please carry on gathering.

I have become immune to newsgroup cliques.

Ignore him Graham, he is obviously a fool. I do, and he and a few others are
in my killfile.

Latest upper air data over Cornwall suggests +6 and 25 knots at 400 metres,
which gives wind chill of 0 deg C. However, this will be replaced this
evening in the Dartmoor area by air more akin to that sampled over Wiltshire
this afternoon: temperature 0 and wind speed 15 knots, which gives a wind
chill of -6 deg C.

Thanks Freddie. MetO forecast for Friday above 400 metres is for a max.
of -2C and wind chill -10C to -15C, I reckon that would count as bitter :-)
