I have looked at the Met office and the symbol for Friday is sleet as somebody has pointed out- but, there is no mention of any sleety precipitation on any of the forecasts tonight or indeed on the Netweather or Metcheck forecasts - where have they picked up the sleety signal?

Quite an interesting rhyming slang 'aris', for anyone remotely interested, it derives from a double whammy of Aristotle = Bottle, Bottle and Glass = Ar*e, therefore just giving you the shortened version of 'aris'......(cockney parents).... moving swiftly back to the weather....

Cockney accent? As if, only the finest Estuarine Essex syllables fall from my lips!!!
