It's sickening TBH.

Nothing like causing a mass panic and bit of hysteria here and there.

 

The Daily Express is right though! Just look at the weather!

 

Yes by the law of averages and it will not last a month!!!

Bear in mind a month ago they forecast a typhoon the strength of the one that hit the Philippines

 

I know! Terribly grim out there. My fence nearly disappeared last night. Trees were making so much rakkit with their manic disco in the wind that I had to put ear plugs on to go to sleep.

 

We get this sh1te all winter every winter, you bunch of Southern shandy drinkers need to put your big boy pants on and man the **** up.

 

Just hear that one of our guys at work is stuck in Ireland,boats have been cancelled.

 

Just watched the high tide come in - a van got picked up and smashed against a wall, a small wall got knocked over and more. Pretty spectacular!

 

You always 'diss' us Southeners! At least I talk properly!

 

Just thought I would give you today's Express front page headline (yes I kid you not they are leading with the weather for the 5th time in 8 days).

"Snow on way after floods"
"Days of wild storms before new big freeze"

It is good to see yesterday's weeks of wild storms is now just days, tomorrow one can presume it will be hours

 

Run for the hills were doomed!!

They are making this out to be like something from that film Day After Tomorrow, you know the one where the choppers freeze and fall out of the sky.


Infact it's so cold the chopper pilots have started speaking a funny language!

 

Sitting in the kitchen watching the news,Worst floods for 20 years apparently.Then I had to laugh when the guy in the news room said,Dan Rivers has more news on the floods.

 

I'm pretty sure the forecasters were forecasting a 'big freeze' for this winter like the one we had in 2010 as well, looks like they have fecked it up again.

 

I've always chuckled at a sign on a path up a small hill at the back of the site where I did my apprenticeship that said 'CAUTION - ICE AND SNOW IN WINTER'. Perhaps the signwriter went on to a career in newspaper journalism?

We often get East Coast America's weather two weeks after they've had it. It's pretty chilly out there at the moment, so that may be a possibility.

 

I'm going to fire up the BBQ tomorrow

 

Meant to be bad some parts of the states,-40 imagine that here,the country would be evacuated,we'd have to live in France..

 

I'd rather freeze

 

It would be a national disaster of a magnitude never seen before, well for you lot of southern shandy drinkers it would be, us lot up north would just get on with it as usual.

Ohh and the media would be having a field day with it all!

 

**** off. The Mars bar factories are both in Slough. You can't live on batter with oot ye Mars bars, sonny.

 

 

Och, I'm sure we could find something else to deep fry, Snow perhaps?

 

Don't eat yellow snow

 

The Daily Express is having a day off with the weather front page for Monday, it's a migrant bashing day instead

 

Had to laugh this morning when I spotted the Express was back on the case : "80mph Gales to Batter Britain" (pic)

 

LOL, must admit I forgot to look over the last week or so to see if they were keeping their weather based front page average up

 

Aha they are back on form. Today's front page:

"Snow, gales, floods and WORSE to come"

What a moronic rag this newspaper is!

 

I've seen it too good picture of Abby Clancey though

 

Hilarious when you're not one of the flood victims.

 

We had almighty thunder and lightening on Saturday pm, you know. I thought some incompetent lorry driver reversed back into the metal gates to my office building, so I carried on as usual. It wasn't until I saw flashes of lightening through someone else's window. Then I hid myself under my table and counted 1-10 about 50 times, to measure how far the lightening had done one from here.

Weather is dodgy atm. I'd rather be dramatically warned than no warning at all.

 

Yes except their warnings bear no real correlation with the scientific forecast. They have Jonathan Powell, a crackpot weather forecaster who has been discredited by every meteorologist out there, spouting forth all the time and they print whatever he says!

For instance we were due to have winds the strength of the typhoon in the Philippines just before Christmas... it never happened. Two weeks ago we were going to get an arctic storm with temps set to plunge to -15... never happened, how about the month of 70mph winds... never happened.

It's all sensationalist bollocks. It's WInter, we are bound to get some bad weather. Hardly a surprise and telling people it will be 10 times worse than it is serves what purpose exactly?

 

And here they go again:

The snow and ice they were predicting just a day or two ago is now off the menu and today's front page headline is

'Vicious 48 hour storm on the way - gales and a deluge to bring more misery'

FFS!!!!
