"The forecast for mid-February remains very uncertain. However, the
most likely outcome is for much colder weather with winds mainly from
an easterly quadrant to prevail, bringing widespread frosts, and snow
to some areas. In this scenario it would be the east that would be
most vulnerable to snowfall. There remains an alternative scenario, in
which milder westerly winds prevail, the chances of this alternative
scenario are currently rated as about one in three."

Yes, I noticed that, and they've come off the fence for days 6-15 too.

I imagine that the North Sea must be warmer than usual for January at
present, so in an easterly it could be one of those occasions when the
south is colder than the north because of the shorter sea track.

It appears that there is still a degree of fence sitting going on down
here in the South West.

The usually informative local Wednesday forecast on the BBC TV local
news spot would always give a summary up to and including Sunday.

But tonight the forecast ended on Saturday. The presenter stated that
there was no forecast for Sunday, " as we don't know what's going to
happen on that day".

Perhaps Mr Braine should take a peak on here. No harm in that is
there?

He really did say that and I sat momentarily open mouthed at what I'd
just heard - then I actually laughed out loud! It was very funny. The
two news presenters just looked a bit stunned!

Terrific honesty in many ways!!
