![]() ================================================== ================== This posting expresses the personal view and opinions of the author. Something which everyone on this planet should be able to do. ================================================== ================== All, this is a very serious post. Just had a look at all the available information this morning and it seems to me that the UK is *potentially* in for quite a severe spell of weather this coming week with the possibility of loss of life, damage to property and some disruption. The low on Monday will give heavy rain in England and Wales and could cause flooding. Track is important for associated gales, but a track slightly further north than the Met Office expects could bring severe gales or storm force winds to larger areas of southern England. Atrocious conditions are likely in the Channel anyway with a high swell and severe gales or storms. Another low on Tuesday could be just as nasty with a short spell of very strong winds and even some snow over high ground, particularly in the north. As things turn colder after Wednesday there is a significant risk of heavy snowfall, possibly blocking roads and causing disruption. High ground and northern areas obviously most at risk but low lying southern Britain not immune. This is a bad time of year to have such a strong jet so far south and "aiming" at the UK - that is the reason for this post. Please keep an eye on Met Office TV and radio forecasts for warnings for your region. Take care, Will. -- " A cup is most useful when empty " ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A COL BH site in East Dartmoor at Haytor, Devon 310m asl (1017 feet). mailto: www: http://www.lyneside.demon.co.uk DISCLAIMER - All views and opinions expressed by myself are personal and do not necessarily represent those of my employer. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
