The waving front across Northern England seems to be causing nightmares
for the forecasters. It never seems to do what it's supposed to!

Originally it was supposed to move down south as a weakening feature,
then they said it would push up into Scotland and now it's going to come
back south again, as a weakening feature.
For much of the day it has stayed just to the north of me but now the rain
has started as what I assume is the cold front part begins to move through.

A dull and cheerless day here, a max of just 14.7C.
I hear it's been 27C down south, that might as well be on the other side of
the world.

It just goes to show that for all the people who think they can forecast
acurately week or even months ahead, sometimes even 24hr forecasts
can go badly wrong.
It would have been nice however to have seen Peter Gibbs this evening
making some mention of the fact that the forecast had completely changed
from what it was last night though.
Instead he just carried on as if nothing had ever happened!
