Brian Gaze's winter forecast is sadly going wrong already when he

predicted a
settled first half of December.

snipped

I'm a great snow fan and a member of the TWO forum, but I just get

tired
and
bored with the seemingly endless "snow and cold weather love-ins",
usually

at
T+168 or greater range. I prefer nowadays to wait and see what happens

and when
it does snow to actually go outside and enjoy it ! It seems rather

pointless to
me to wish one's life away waiting for that elusive severe winter. But

there you
go, that's just me.



I agree Will, the only time I believe any snow forecast is at T+0 and I
can
see it in the sky, falling onto the ground. And then I hate it with a
passion...

For me waiting for a good snow event is a bit like watching the England
football team playing in the World Cup or European Championships.
To start of with the head rules. Don't be silly it says we all know

England
won't win/ there won't be any severe weather.
Then a few charts pop up/ England play a good game. Hmmm the brain thinks.
Stay calm
Another few charts pop up/England's draw looks good. Heart starts to take
charge. Maybe this time. Head butts in. Calm down it screams. Now it's

T+48.
The charts are great/ England are in the quarter finals. This is is. This

is
what we've been waiting for. Yipppeeee!!!
Result is England get beaten on penalties/zonal weather crops up at T+24!!
