    Ho dear, just seen the latest projections for the next 10 days. Hampshire has no sub zero temps even at night. Just across the channel , Paris, Madrid due to get sub zero by day with snow due in France. 

    Northern France looking very cold next week and snow forecast for the coast of Northern Spain next Week

    It seems the bbc always plays things down slightly. I can understand that, id imagine they don't want to cause panic. In my view the bbc does a good job, the forecast is never so straight forward. 

    What sort of job could a weather forecaster do if there was no need for them?

    well there we have it, from an imby perspective, winter is nearly over, lol,  3 chilly days, rain on sunday according to the met office forecast, not much to cheer about, lol.

    Is the met office on its own because apart from rain on Thursday, hardly any mention of cold days ahead in the South.

  4. Watching Aljazeera News, there are pictures of snow in vast areas of Europe including Italy, Greece, Turkey, France, Germany, Poland to mention just a few. Many people have died due to severe cold in Europe. fountains in Rome are frozen. One media source says that Britain has missed the cold and snow, for its usual gray cloudy skies and warm temperatures.

    Which sums up this Winter up gain. local weather forecast suggesting more mild temps here with a cooler two day period later this Week. Ho dear, day 34, cool, fog , cloud , drizzle.

    Winter almost over !!!

    What a stressful year waiting for some decent cold. I used to wait for the models to come out a few years ago, before we had those cold winters. I ended up getting so obsessed and annoyed that i had to pack it. I didn't go on netweather for about 2 years because my interest in weather fizzled slightly. I hope it doesn't get to that again. I like to think i understand how forecasting works a little more now. Back then i would have taken a chart at t384 as a definite!

    There seems to be snow pics everywhere on Facebook from Europe to middle east, Asia, USA. Here in Hampshire day 28 . No wind, cloud, cool, fog. Today we have a change to rain, cool, cloud, fog.

    Exactly. Why people put themselves through it . it would be easier to get a day trip to Europe. You could play in the snow all day then fly back to the warm, all in a day

    Aye. And as the Azoroslug has been a constant feature of this winter, so far, I can't see it buggering-off any time soon. At least, not without some kind of major disturbance?

    Don't worry it will bugger off early March allowing cool east winds in, just when the rest of Europe begins heatwave.

    I promised myself that I wouldn't, but I still managed to get sucked in to the latest cold snap hype. Alas, my BBC Weather app tells me Saturday will be the coldest it gets here, with an over night low of -1c and a daytime maximum of 4c.

    Atleast the local wildlife will pull through.

    Sorry is that if it gets here?
