Our subscriber the Daily Express has picked up on Sir Piers prediction.

I would like to request that people kindly do not lump him in the same camp as that nutter James Madden. As Lawrence pointed out Sir Piers did not make any snowy predictions last year because he KNEW they werent going to happen. This year he is CERTAIN we are are for a real big un. HOLD ON TO YOUR HELMETS LADS!!!

aND THE XPRESS PIECE

Sir Piers Corbyn, forecaster for WeatherAction, said: "There are some very significant cold and snowy blasts now almost a certainly in December.

"We are expecting something similar to 2010 and 2011 with major snow events and sustained extreme cold expected through the month.

"Major disruption at airports and on the country's transport systems is inevitable and they should be prepared for this.

"We have the jet stream to thank for this which, due to solar activity, is meandering.

"It is about to open the doors to a blast of cold air from the north and will block milder conditions from the west.

"It will be mostly cold and snowy until just before Christmas and there are signs of some more extreme conditions after December, although there are huge variables on these models."

The difference between Piers and Madden is Piers genuinely believes in his method and that makes him far from the maddening crowd and Madden is just mad, mad on publicity for the sake of it
