It seems like the Met Office site changes as fast as the weather!

Is yet another sign of the nanny state? When the temperature will be a balmy 72 degrees with a light breeze, will they issue warnings that some people may experience slight discomfort and perspiration?

Maybe it went to the warnings page first because there are so many right now and they figure that's what most people are looking for, rather than checking if their picnic will require umbrellas.

They went through a phase of using the American sounding "Weather Advisory" for a while.
At least they're not doing that any more.

The warnings have always been there, filed under "warnings" and the forecasts are under "forecasts" where you might expect. The 5 day one happens to be the first item on the weather menu.
