Default Cottesmore METAR

Reminds me of an occasion when I was at Wyton in the early 80's. The
Assistant at the time got bored/mischievous or whatever and transcribed the
forecasters trend verbatim. The forecaster being a rather blunt speaking
Yorkshire man called out the trend as NO F**@*!* SIG.

Shame, as the Assistant had one of the most brilliant mathematical minds I
have ever met and I believe he left the office shortly after!

I love it, but someone will not be amused

(As a parallel, that picture of the head of P.Charles superimposed on
Linford Christie's body did not amuse the "Palace".
But of course, I didn't elect Charlie nor pay my taxes to support the
Palace, so who cares what they think?)
