Cliches, faux pas, and your favourite other stupid media comments,
"The second cold spell this winter!"
and
"Blah de Blah in the south has been hardest hit"
and
"They're used to it up north"
and
It's remained cold in the north for "more than a week now"
and
"Blizzard conditions" when there's light snow and calm conditions with a
dusting on the ground.
and
worst of all;
Severe warnings for widespread icy conditions.
After 4 weeks of nothing but ice, I think I've realised that's what the
slippery layer on the ground is. I don't need a severe warning to tell me
that every single day, time and time again.
