Default BBC NEWS | UK | Met Office warns of bitter winter - yes it'sthe same story told slightly differently

Felly sgrifennodd Alan Whitewick :
Interesting, though the probability of turning up 10 tails(mild winters
say) in a row is 1024 to 1 so a 65% chance of a cold winter makes for a
pretty easy statement.


Well, 1023:1, but yes to the average tabloid journalist it is easy to
say.
