A snow symbol appeared yesterday for next Thursday and I was expecting it to vanish this morning; instead I now have snow symbols for Thursday and Friday.  But at +5 and +4 it’s all very marginal and I still expect the app to switch to rain today/tomorrow.

To me the outlook can be summed up in the well-used phrase: changeable. Wet, windy, a quieter day, mountain snow. Much like the UKM extended text in fact.


im sick of the tripe spewed by the likes of The Express- there should be laws against this. How many elderly and infirm people felt anxiety about not being able to get out to vote due to snow? Irresponsible reporting from a gutter rag

The guy in Carphone Warehouse earlier this week told me he'd read in the Express or Star that December was going to the coldest on record. As he completed the paperwork I silently prayed that the quote hadn't been attributed to me. 


On that cheery note I'll start a new MO thread at 08:45.
