You can't go down Sheerness High Street without hearing someone referring to
the expected cold winter. Every man and his dog is talking about the
possibility of the island being cut off. To be honest with you, I can't see
the MO issuing an amber alert unless they expected something quite serious.
Just another 90's style winter is nothing to worry about, now an 80's style
winter is a different story!

I took this from the Met Office Site:

snip

The last eight winters have been relatively mild and perhaps have given
the
impression that these are 'normal'. The balance of probability is for a
winter colder than those experienced since 1995/6.

All in all then, it looks like being a fairly average 90's style winter
with one month with a CET of 2.5. What's all the fuss about????


What fuss would that be ?
From your own interpretation of the warning (if it is a warning), there is
a good possibilty of a colder winter than we have been used to recently,
nothing more. The Met Office have also let us know that interested parties
have been advised.

Or were you referring to the response of others to the information ?
