Stargazing Live (not as off-topic as you might think)

Dara O Briain and Brian Cox would be tough act to follow. Keep Dara O
Briain but replace Prof.Cox with perhaps Gavin Pretor-Pinney of the
Cloud Appreciation Society.

Is the ash cloud reaching into the stratosphere? If it is, then there
could be world-wide consequences.

Outrageous !

Well, with three real meteorologists to be axed from BBC, what are we
left with? Non-meteorologists employed for personality (??? ) rather
than having in-depth understanding of the weather.

Flushed with Pride

Desperate Dan on BBC referred to the wind circulation of Sundays
upcoming storm as like being flushed down the toilet. I collapsed
with laughter so not sure exactly what he said.

Metcheck predicting loss of atmosphere !

I don't think you need to take that forecast seriously. I'm not sure
if the MetCheck owner is still a "guest" of Her Majesty but I suspect
that is an automated meaningless update.

Fog or Freezing Fog

I guess if its +0 (i.e. between 0.0 and +0.4C) it would be fog. But
if -0C (i.e. between -0.1 and -0.5C it would be freezing fog.
