metmanH

I'm just about to graduate from undergrad met at Reading uni in june, It's a great degree, the stuff i've learned there will really help in my future career and there's some very clever people there however at the same time I won't exactly be leaving with fond memories, the departments idea of fun is a few games of croquet and a once per term pub crawl that never goes to plan... meh!!!

I don't see the need for a scottish Met office, I agree that the Met office can be located anywhere and still produce highly certain forecasts but its the north/south weather warnings bias that needs to be adressed I think. I could imagine if southern England was to have -18C and a foot of snow overnight like Avimore had, they would have came up with some super red warning or something, yet I'm sure only an yellow advisory was issued on this night in Avimore.

Hi, I'm currently down at uni in Reading and jealous of the weather I'm missing at home! Does anyone have any photos of big snow drifts I can show off to friends down here (I will acknowledge the photos of course )? The media is too busy with a wee bit of rain here to mention amazing temperatures being recorded up north. Thanks

Just got woken up by Thundersnow in Reading :lol: Track them on here: http://www.isleofwightweather.co.uk/live_storm_data.htm
