BBC v Yahoo weather
Another (mainly Scottish) gripe: on ITV and BBC equally, it's often very
hard to know where the weather forecaster means when (s)he uses, very
frequently, the vague term "in the north". Is it north of England, or
north of the UK (meaning northern Scotland, presumably - or maybe the
whole of Scotland - and maybe bits of N England too)? Sometimes it's clear
from the forecaster's gestures, sometimes it's not, and we can't see the
gestures on the radio.

North = north of M25 to level with Birmingham. Anything further north...
"here be dragons"
