All the other places they mention are regions, and I would have thought that Lincolnshire would be included in one of them. Or perhaps not - they don't mention the East Midlands, so perhaps it will miss us. Martin -- Created on the Iyonix PC - the world's fastest RISC OS computer. http://homepage.ntlworld.com/m.dixon4/ |

It may be the Midlands but ,when I lived there, I always felt most closely linked with East Anglia - certainly from the weather point of view. Wording is strange....why the AND - and not just ...Wales, East Anglia and Lincolnshire. John -- York, North Yorkshire. (Norman Virus Protected) |

You know that you're in a country that rarely receives snow when you get a
"Heavy Snow" warning for an event that *could* leave "Accumulations of several cm" on the hills! Especially when it is under a heading which says... "These warnings are issued when severe weather is expected to cause widespread disruption to traffic etc. over the next few days." Yeah right. Whatever happened to the substantial snowfalls that I remember when I was going to school in the 80's? Haven't seen substantial snow now for many years. Brendan |

There's no significance to the "AND" above; I suspect it's merely the result of the technical 'jiggery pokery' that relays the bulletin onto the web page. Jon. |

Yeah right.

Brendan I suppose it will be eventually justified as soon there will be a whole generation who have never seen 15cm of snow so a few cms will be severe. Dave. PS. -a fter some very clear nights why does it always have to cloud over the night of the Leonid meteor showers. |

The Leonids are expected to peak around 2150 on the 19th, not tonight or are you just saying it will be cloudy Friday night? http://www.spaceweather.com/ -- Cheers Dave. pam is missing e-mail |

Driving back from a concert in the early hours of Sunday morning, I stopped for 5 minutes in deepest darkest mid Hampshire - and saw a bright meteor trail without even looking for it. Not as spectacular as seeing the milky way however, free of any light pollutuion! ![]() -- Dave Fareham. |

We get missd off everything being just in between two areas (you have to buy the midlands and east anglia auto traders, then everything is still miles away!) The top of the county could almost be "northern england" being next to yorkshire, where I am is probably Midlands, although if Derby is East Mids, I must be EastEast Mids! Then in the far southeast of the county you're probably East Anglia... Life with no identity tsk... James |
