We're in for some pretty disturbed weather at 10 days.

**At T+240, on Wednesday 22nd Nov, the UK will be experiencing weather with an Atlantic source. Gales are likely in the NW and spells of heavy rain and strong winds are possible in other areas. These will interspersed with calmer spells, with night frosts, only in transient ridges of high pressure. Typical zonal weather.**

The first bit is ok as it says "on Wednesday... " but I think what is
confusing people is the plurality of the second part. As this part must
refer to the subsquent weather (i.e frosts, transient ridges etc)typical
of zonal weather. It may have been better to word the forecast as a
"spell of zonal weather commencing October 22nd", or "continued zonal
spell at Oct 22nd" or "at least a week of zonal weather from Oct 22nd".
