    DOOM: Beast from the East

    “ UK weather: Beast from the East might return next week, says Met Office

    Snow forecast in Scotland and north-east England and wintry weather in central England

    ...

    For northern England we could be looking at around 15cm, perhaps 20cm, by the end of Thursday over the highest routes,” he said. “Further south I’m not really sure, particularly into the Midlands, that much if any will settle.”

    He said there could be “maybe one or two centimetres” of snow over the highest routes in central and eastern parts of England.

    “But because of how wet the ground is going to be leading up to it and how much rain there’ll be mixed in around as well there probably won’t be a huge amount settling,” he added.

    Temperatures could drop as low as -7C in the east of England on Wednesday night and possibly to -11C or -12C in Scotland, he said.“

                He was quoting the weather. The weather is often front page news on the weather page.

                  All part of a ~60-year weather cycle that affects these isles and northern Europe. Made milder by climate change but they persist nevertheless.

                  Expect winters to get colder for about another ten years before they start to improve. I studied all this in sailing school in the 1970s.

                    I believe climate change will lead to more weather extremes.

                    Lets discuss this in 20 years time?
