    Has the weekend cold spell vanished? Are we going to be denied seeing even one snow flake this winter?

    from the guardian online Atlantic current changes could bring drier summers to the UKResearchers forecast end of wet summers as surface and deep water circulation cools down and climate change takes hold.The UK's run of rain-drenched summers could be ended by a slow-down in major Atlantic currents which bring warm, wet air to Europe, according to research. The currents were known to have weakened since 2004 but the new work suggests the trend began in the 1990s and shows no sign of ending. However, the scientists said the changes to summer weather would take a decade or more to unfold. Professor Rowan Sutton, at the University of Reading and part of the research team, said: "Those of us that spend our summer holidays in Britain would welcome a move away from a recent succession of soggy summers. But this research certainly isn't a forecast for summer 2014, or any other year." He said the changes to UK climate would be in addition to the longer-term global warming trend driven by carbon emissions, which is most likely to bring an increase in heatwaves and extreme storms.

    latest from met UK Outlook for Tuesday 11 Mar 2014 to Tuesday 25 Mar 2014:Current indications suggest a more typically unsettled pattern across the United Kingdom through much of March. Through this period we can expect to see fairly average conditions, which would mean spells of wet and windy weather, mostly in the north and west, but still some decent sunny spells in between. The best of the drier, brighter conditions is most likely in the south and east of the UK. Temperatures are likely to be around average, which may lead to more frequent incidences of frost compared to recent weeks. Updated: 1139 on Mon 24 Feb 2014

    latest from met office UK Outlook for Saturday 1 Mar 2014 to Monday 10 Mar 2014:The weekend will start unsettled with showers or longer spells of rain, with some heavier bursts at first. This will be most persistent in the far southeast and far north, with a risk of hill snow in the north. There will be some drier slots too, especially on Sunday with a risk of local frost and icy surfaces. Temperatures near normal. Through the next week it will remain unsettled in northern parts, with further rain or showers, and some hill snow. It will be mainly dry but fairly cloudy towards the south with isolated patchy frost. During the middle part of the week rain may spread southwards for a time, before turning wet and windy in the northwest again later, with a risk of gales. Updated: 1123 on Mon 24 Feb 2014

    This is from brian gaze from the weatheroutlook regarding next weekends weather. The irony of ironies is if this could allow wintry showers to develop, and even bring a few flakes of snow down to lower levels where winter remained snow-less. Again I’ll quickly add that I’m not talking about widespread disruptive or accumulating snow. I’m really just flagging up the possibility of an unusual anomaly for some areas; the possibility of the first snow flake of the year arriving in spring!

    Wasn't there an earth quake this week in the bristol channel? The Bristol Channel floods, which occurred on 30 January 1607, resulted in the drowning of a large number of people and the destruction of a large amount of farmland and livestock. Recent research has suggested that the cause may have been a tsunami. The cause of the flood remains disputed, insofar as contemporary explanations blamed God. Subsequent scientific explanations ignored much of the written evidence and blamed bad weather, until recent research suggested a tsunami. Traditionally it had been believed that the floods were caused by a storm surge, a combination of meteorological extremes and a high tide. Written evidence from the time describes events that were similar to those that unfolded in the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami, including the sea receding before the wave arrived, a wave of water that rushed in faster than men could run, sparks coming off the top of the wave, and a crowd of people who stood and watched the wave coming towards them until it was too late to run.

    in that case, due to government cuts, my borough couldn't afford any this year, so they have the 2 grammes left over from lasy year.

    More nonsense from the express Floods, storms, and TIDAL WAVES of rats: rodents the latest plague to hit rural towns EXPERTS have warned that waves of rats fleeing the floods are descending on nearby homes.

    Exactly alexisj9, i hate the way this paper twists things round to always sound like they are right. It was snow all the way for them, no mention of mild and record rain, they take the Tut

    Daily express saying they predicted the winter correctly, thanks to their 'expert forecasters' what bull**** Winter will be 'drier than normal', Met Office claimed...but the Express knew truth DAILY Express long-range weather forecasters warned a severe winter was on the way months before it turned out to be the wettest on record. Long range forecasters used by the Daily Express including Vantage Weather Services and Exacta Weather had seen signals that, to the contrary, above average precipitation would fall. In line with usual winter blocking patterns, which allow cold air to flow in from the east, they said we could be in for record amounts of snowfall.. The Daily Express did not rule out the possibility that should the weather be milder than average, we would indeed see this fall as rain - which ultimately it did. Jonathan Powell, forecaster for Vantage Weather Services, said: “We always maintained it was going to be a wild winter with very high precipitation. “We said at the beginning we would either be knee-deep in snow or knee-deep in rain.

    I would prefer it if the met office kept it zipped and just stuck to 7 day forecasts, they have proved that they haven't got a scooby about long range forecasting. The difference between them and the james maddens is millions of pounds from the government. Extract from daily mail Weathermen are worthless (so give them £10m more)By David DerbyshireUPDATED: 08:28, 12 May 2011 The Met Office’s seasonal forecasts are worthless and failed to help Britain prepare for the coldest start to winter in 100 years, MPs said yesterday. Its long-range predictions ‘do not provide a firm basis on which decision makers can act with confidence’, the report into December’s snow chaos found. But despite giving a damning verdict on its forecasting, the Commons transport committee urged the Government to give the Met Office an extra £10million in funding.

    The International Research Institute for Climate and Society have just issued their latest ideas for sorting and summer 2014.It predicts temperatures to be above normal across all of western Europe through spring (March to May inclusive), and places percentages chances across the north of the UK of 55% above normal, 30% near normal and just a 15% risk of temperatures below normal.For the summer months (June to August inclusive, see below) percentage risks are 50% above normal temperatures, 35% near normal and 15% below normal temperature.These are significant signals from the model and confirm current thinking of a milder than usual summer. warning they did predict near normal rainfall for this winter.

    Indeed, if it is true then it shows no improvements in the met office long range forecasting and they should stop making these predictions.

    Were you weeding and digging the soil, or have you started planting? The spinach, coriander, fennel, spring onions and rocket in my garden have all survived the winter. I never know when to plant tomatoes, beans etc because a late cold snap would kill these fragile plants.
