Difficult to keep the winter interest going with the same progged for the

Dave now you know why I was moaning for weeks on end about the endless
dross!
We've had at least a few half decent snowfalls in November and the middle of
this month, but most of the time it's been nothing but endless dross.
November saw around 120 mm of rain, December almost a 100 mm of rain and
this month so far 125 mm of rain.
Sunshine totals for the 3 months (Nov to Jan) not even reached 100 hours
(average 155 hours), and still the dross goes on.
Yesterday was one of the better days of this horrible winter. I really can't
see February getting any better.
The only upside I suppose, if we do get a cold spell we will at least get
some sunny days which would be a welcome relief.


What on earth are you idiots groaning for on Monday there is a linestorm warning that runs through to Tuesday when it is replaced by a tornado warning.

Nip down to the pub until Tuesday afternoon then dust yourselves off ready for the middle of February. You are going to need all your faculties then:
