Piers Corbyn's 'Solar Weather Technique'


About 0 for 5, isn't it? Maybe this one will be correct. Even a stopped
clock is right once a day.

Oh, how did the last one do?

The last astrology prediction for the UK.

(Nov 11 2006)
Piers Corbyn, managing director of long-term forecasters Weather Action,
predicted Arctic air blasting across the whole country towards the close
of the month.

He said temperatures will sink as low as -14 C in exposed Highland
locations, with the rest of the country experiencing hard frosts and heavy
snow showers.

Mr Corbyn said: "There will be some notably cold and snowy parts. Coming
after such a mild October these conditions will feel especially cold."

Let us verify (Nov 28 2006):

London:

Clearly a blast of Arctic air. From the south, even. As cold as 6 C
overnight. High temperatures only up to 14 C during the day. That is
almost 60 F, for the metric challenged. Bitter cold.

Scotland Highlands:

No snow, not cold, not even freezing. Oh, wait:

At the top of Cairngorm (Aviemore) ski area, forecast temperature for
overnight Tuesday (today) is 0 C with light snow. Then warmer (4 C) with
heavy rain. With a strong southwest wind, clearly from the Arctic. Sounds
like grand skiing weather.

Another real winner, this one was.


Hi Phil - hope all's well with you. I hope your public display here
combining new superficiality with long-limp assertions isn't some
indicator that you're in some turn for the worse. The notion that Nov
28 is adequate sample for "towards the end of November" as you put it,
even if everything else you say is accurate, seems silly on its face.
Are you truly a silly person these days?

Hope you get better!
