According to the Daily Express we are due the worst winter for deacdes, with record snowfall predicted for November. Bloody marvellous!

The Express has an interesting choice of go-to weather experts.

Quote:

'Jonathan Powell, forecaster for Vantage Weather Services, said: 'We are looking at a potentially paralysing winter, the worst for decades, which could at times grind the nation to a halt.'

Quote:

James Madden, forecaster for Exacta Weather, said it was likely to be the worst winter for more than 100 years.'

I'm not saying that their forecasts are wrong. Just interesting that the Express should pick them, when there are established, professional, weather agencies out there. Perhaps, there's a better chance of them coming out with colourful quotes and more extreme predictions for the front page?

Edit: Spelling!

UK Outlook for Sunday 27 Oct 2013 to Sunday 10 Nov 2013:

The unsettled weather expected by late October is considered more likely than not to persist through the rest of the month onwards into the first week of November, leading to slightly above average rainfall amounts for some regions. Temperatures during this period may well remain close to or a little above average throughout, especially in the south, leading to a lower risk of frost here than can usually be expected at this time of year. There are some indications that the second week of November may see drier than average conditions across some parts of the country with temperatures probably returning to average.
