The winter 'polar vortex' is coming.....maybe.... (1 Viewer)

[MR. FUSION]

Had this been in the Express I would dismiss it immediately....but maybe...wrap up your van

Winter lay up extras for me this year are:

Mouse sticky pads (to catch insects and rodents)
Bagged mouse poison (mice only smell it if they are actually in the van)
Mothballs.

I keep the van under cover at a farm, so extra mouse precautions are essential.

 

[Janine]

My extras will include vodka and another hot water bottle

 

[Figaro]

Usual filler storey for the tabloids taking a punt on it maybe cold during the winter !
Whatever next, it maybe warm in the summer, wow, never would have guessed.
Just ignore and follow the seven day forecast.

And it would be useful if you could always rely on that!

Won’t need to worry we’ll be in warmer climbs

 

[Steve N Tracy]

When winter is not colder then summer I will begin to worry.

As Michael Fish said in 1987 "she had heard that there was a hurricane coming, well don't worry there isn't"

Read what the Met Office ACTUALLY SAID, not what the b*ll-s**t reporter made up

Met Office said UNLIKELY to snow before end Oct

It would be absolute chip-wrapping if it wasn't on line

To quote Morrisey from his song "spent the day in bed" he sang;-

'STOP READING THE NEWS- BECAUSE THE NEWS CONSPIRES TO FRIGHTEN YOU'

Effectively it is....I believe the Mirror's owner bought the Express a while ago. And they must be sharing articles...it even says "Piers Corbyn, of WeatherAction, told the Express" further down the page.

Clearly a well put together article....one of the photo captions says "A car is surrounded by deep snow as it makes its way along a road in the Pennines in last year's Beast from the East".

Thanks, it's total meteorological fairy tales in that case

Of course, having said all that, you can bet I'll be stuck in a 10 foot snow drift on the M4 on October 31st

With a name combining two people who I have little time for it was no wonder I was suspicious and looked it up
I will leave you to decide which two people I am referring to

 

[Gromett]

Damn, He is actually related to one of the people I was referring to. Didn't know that, but it explains a lot.

LOL, Alex Jones is a fruit cake (on the moon landings particularly) so that is not a good pedigree media wise
Marxist weather, whatever next

So if we are going to the chilly side then we can’t be getting global warming.
You can’t have it both ways it’s not how it works

Surely you should know how it works by now, warmer winters = global warming, colder winters = global warming.

Ice age ended 12000 years ago (after 2 million years frozen)
Now THAT was global warming/ climate change
Probably caused by non Euro 6 vehicles imho

Nothing new about global warming .....

Alex Jones is more than a fruit cake, he is a spiteful dangerous man and supposedly a "friend" of "The Donald" - see below and/or google him

Jones is being sued by parents over his false claims that the 2012 massacre at the Sandy Hook elementary school that killed 26 people was a hoax
