I know when Metcheck first burst onto the vista they made the same sort of
headlining "coldest winter ever" statement. Weather Action did the same
thing in Autumn 1980 I still have the article from the Daily Telegraph. The
truth is it's all nonsense really isn't it. I will give credit though to
Metcheck and The Weather Outlook for stimulating interest n the weather.
They both run very nice informative sites. I'm just a little disappointed
in the fact that this totally unverifiable prediction has gone like
wildfire around what should more critical news sources.

You may be disappointed but surely not surprised ! Give them the hint of a
story and the 'media' will always sensationalize it. The thought that they
should apply some 'critical' thinking would never enter their heads. 'Never
let the truth stand in the way of a good story' is there axiom. Yes - I'm
afraid I am a cynic.
