Default Worst cold snap for 20 years???

BBC
I find ITV Weather and News not as good any more, IMHO, ITV news is

quite
poor these days, it comes over as low budget and poorly presented.


You've obviously not seen Channel 5 then!:-o

D.


C5.. I don't go there..

BBC Local (Midlands) were at it again, even gave the weather a bigger slot
and had Mr King from Brum Uni talking about the weather. Now its going to be
the worst cold snap for 14 years (downgraded by 6 years) and they were
happily showing clips of cars making there way through lots of snow. (For
the drama I guess)
They also pointed out that this is traditionally the coldest time of the
year to the 15th.

I have a theory, the supermarkets are not doing as well because we are all
recovering after Christmas and they need to step up demand and weather
people have been paid off to drum up business...
