Behind the scenes the MetO are very concerned about another snowy spell this
month. Due to uncertainties nothing much has been said yet for fear of
"damaging the brand" and setting the Press off on one. But looking at the
charts this morning it would seem something more definite will be announced
in the next day or two I expect. Going to be an interesting month I fancy
with borderline snow events to contend with :-)

Surely Will UKMO only have to use simple words like 'maybe' or'could'. They really don't help themselves with their garrish OTT warning system.
I mean 'National Emergency' . War is a national emergency not a bleedin' couple of inches of snow. I'm sure in days gone past they would have said weather not too bad just acouple of inches of snow. In my view anyone visiting their website would come away with a very different opinion from reality.
