'Monday will be a whiteout'..bollocks will it

[mrmcfister]

Jonathan Powell, forecaster for Vantage Weather Services says Monday will be a 'whiteout everywhere'.The Daily Express forecaster who has a puerile history of getting it badly wrong loves his two minutes of fame when the Express can't find a headline about Diana or house prices.This paper lurches from bad to worse with this sort of bollocks...

Here in London they never seem to be able to cope. I remember about 3 years ago when we were snowed in and the gritting lorries ran out of grit. The Mayor also cancelled ALL the buses for a day, something which never happened even in the Blitz during the war. I hope they get it right this time.

The East coast is "in for it" i am told?.

This is a good thing, at least it's a reason to put my 4WD in to 4WD!!

If I was to place bets

Will it be a Whiteout - NO

Will some areas of the UK almost grind to a halt under less than an inch of snow - YES

[one eyed jack]

I resent the term whiteout...Sounds like reverse racism at play here

If we had another war the PC brigade would object to blackout as it could be misconstrued as a BNP war cry!!

Just a dusting of snow here overnight, not even a cm.
Mains roads were totally clear just wet like rain yet both of my route options had a mile of crawling traffic for no reason hence 10+ mins late signing in at work. !shrug!
