Not there at all Col. There's been nothing to suggest it and all we

can be hopeful for is a nicer day, or two this week.



Will is ramping, as he always does, the possibility of the most

extreme snow conditions he can. We've had so many posts this and in

other winters from him about Dartmoor (and other) blizzards, that I

think we all know it's silly, but he'll get it right once - the law

of averages will kick in.



There's a lot of talk on TWO about snow and cold, and it can't all be

'ramping'. Besides Will only ever mentioned the 'possibility' of blizzards,

it wasn't a forecast as such.



Hoping for not too bad a day here near the centre of the low where

conditions can sometimes be reasonable. However rain only just

cleared but starting to brighten up a touch. Temp a chilly 3.2°C.

Ha! It's *never* a forecast Col, even when he puts it in the title to ramp the possibility. It only *becomes* a forecast in hindsight, if blizzards actually happen - and one time, I promise you they will! Now you know that! *))
