Default Next two week's weather beginning 26/02/06

Yes, thanks Will and thanks for explaining where the changes occured to help
us understand. Some forecasters would have claimed accuracy as it was a cold
week and did snow today!
.... and Jon, don't forget to blow hard southwards next week and let's hope
we all enjoy what looks like a nice week one way or another.

First a few words about last week's forecast which was not up to the

usual
standard.


Well the risk of snow was certainly there and, IIRC, snow was still being
catered for right up until the end of the event (admittedly for high

ground)
and there was snow (mostly showers) in the SE late Monday/early Tuesday.

See
Norwich at 2050Z on Monday and later in the night at Luton.

snip
So I apologise for those errors.


No need IMHO. You did your best with the information available at the

time.
Can't ask for more than that.

OK, this Sunday and Monday look like being cold and bright days with

plenty of
sunshine around especially in the north. The sun is now strong enough to

melt
lying snow quickly. In southern England a strong east wind will persist,
probably bringing some wintry showers, especially to Devon and Cornwall

giving
more snow over the moors.


I'm 100% confident of heavy snow in Devon next week.. while I'm in the
Arctic* !

Jon.

*north of the Arctic circle anyway
