Power Cuts ravage central Dorset
Well not exactly. A digger at work somewhere near Milborne St Andrew
cut the supply apparently to two or three villages for about 4 hours. It coincided with the passing of the cold front which seems to have been 1152. It was 9.2C then and is now 6.4. There was some 5.8mm rain. Thus the disruption warning proved 'correct' - perhaps the JCB fellow glanced out of his cab and dug a little too vigorously. According to the local BBC girl Dorset and Wiltshire are most at risk of some snow tomorrow. If it does not occur the Red Warning will prove,yet again, somewhat exaggerated R |

I haven't given up hope of the odd flurry tomorrow evening but must admit it's not looking very exciting for down here. The chocolate log will probably be staying in the freezer, all a bit disappointing really. Jon. (tropical east Devon) |
