Well, Den, the forecasters are backing off quickly now with that forecast for snow over the whole country this Easter! As I said, forecasts over such a long period are rarely correct, Sudden Stratospheric Warning or not!

I've got one, though. Temperatures on average over the next five months will increase somewhat over present levels and the weather will be changeable over this period.

Place your bets now, ladies and gentlemen.....

Interesting this thread has over a quarter of a million views, more than twice the Brexit thread !

Sometimes I think us weather obsessed Brits get our priorities wrong ;)

There is one fact you forgot to remember Mr K in your wonderfully eloquent portrayal of us Brits and that is this thread has been going since 2004 where the Brexit thread is still a puppy in comparison.;)

The cold weather is being triggered by an active low-pressure system moving in from the Atlantic.

Actually, there has been several Brexit threads - with a combined view of over a million views. Though what the hell this has to do with snow, I will never know.

One thing is for sure - Members need to stop bringing Brexit it in to every bloody topic.
