And if she's still around, will she call them tomorrow and ask the
same? I'll bet she'd get the same response if she did.


Richard, I recall you've studied the details of that system in great

worrying simlarities for people who are not on the continent?

Eeek!


It is an eek! Mr. Brain on Spotlight was highlighting the stormy
potential even here, some distance from the "eye". Coastal flooding
and perhaps lee snow potential on the moors too. It'll be an
interesting day - but perhaps nothing like as interesting as the
weather in Northern France. That really looks like it may be an "eek!".
