    No More Snow... again...

    What happened that the UK was supposed to have a Mediterranean Climate by 2010?

    You need to look past the headlines.

    Heavy snow will return occasionally, says Dr Viner, but when it does we will be unprepared. “We’re really going to get caught out. Snow will probably cause chaos in 20 years time,” he said.
    Not really a thing of the past, eh?

    Cretin dispatched. Next!

        So none of the predictions came true.

          Are you saying that snow doesn't cause chaos nowadays?

                    BBC NEWS | UK | Climate may turn UK Mediterranean

                    Huge swathes of England could take on a Mediterranean look within 50 years as native woodlands are threatened by warmer, drier summers, say scientists.

                    We've got at least another 35 years to go.

                    I guess it means those in their 30's can retire to the sun without leaving home.
