Talking of utterly clueless, here is the forecast that Piers issued for 12-16th Dec 2014....

Heavy snow and blizzards. Thundersnow, turning EXTREMELY COLD in
Scotland and NE England. DEEP SNOW likely in E+NE (espec) England &
South Scotland. Airports lkely disuprted inc Heatheow + Gatwick. Small
clarifications 45d re deeper snow"

UK map - most of UK except N Scotland and W Ireland "HEAVY SNOW,
BLIZZARDS, prob heaviest in East and NE parts FEET OF SNOW IN PARTS,
East parts inc London + SE. Becoming extremely cold"

Oh dear, didn't happen did it? Completely hopeless.
