Default Latest attempt at a weather Forecast by Corbet 7.55pm BBC1

I heard an amusing forecast on BBC Southern Counties earlier today

It was the weekly forecast and following the "forecast", the programme
host had a chat with the "forecaster".

It transpired that presenting the weather on the radio was a part time
job - His "day job" was a supermarket manager!!!

Could explain a lot . . .

I'm afraid I didn't get his name though otherwise we could have had
another public flogging of a BBC weather "presenter" :-)

Cheers

Neil

Just seen this forecast. I get the impression he is getting worse and
worse. Waved his arms in the general direction of Scotland and said there
would be "severe gales over parts of Scotland". No attempt at indicating
which parts are more likely to experience this severe weather! Little
mention of the sort of rainfall to be expected over an area with a number of
severe flood warnings in force. Really worse than useless!
