The BBC seem to be getting excited about it but hey....was there any

point
in me telling you that!

This will be interesting, my view is that ukmo will *always* over do the
risk factor. I trust them to be correct over such a short period of time
but I don't trust the over hyped potential, that's being painted.
I don't believe the south will see any settled snow -perhaps maybe and a

big
maybe for hilly areas.


Not so "over hyped" if you happen to live in the Northern third of the
country! You're welcome to join me driving the 40 miles to work on Friday
Morning at 6am over Slochd Summit (1,300ft.), Inverness if you think they
might have "over-hyped" it after looking at todays run of charts!!

That is the worse argument against "over-hype" I've ever heard, in fact
it's over-hyped. If that's a regular route, are you telling me it never
snows up there!

Call me daft but that is a shock to hear it may snow up there at Slochd
Summit (1,300ft.), Inverness. I bet that's suprised a few people. It must
have come as a shock to you as well when you decided to live there. Climate
Change eh! I don't know.
