    Global Warming

    http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...akes-hold.html

    Britons should brace themselves for a Big Chill in the New Year with weathermen warning that temperatures could plunge as low as minus 13C.

    New Year revellers will need to wrap up with overnight temperatures as low as minus 6C predicted for the coming week.

    At least two weeks of widespread frosts are forecast as a cold front from Siberia takes hold.

    Daytime temperatures will barely rise above zero in many areas, the Met Office says.

    And it says there is a 'significant risk' of a 'very cold snap' towards the end of the next fortnight.

    That would see sleet and snow in northern and eastern areas and temperatures as low as minus 13C overnight.


    I blame the 4x4's!

    UK has got climate that is much milder than it should be thanks to Gulf steam - if that goes due to global warming then UK will get a lot colder.

          It's nothing but a cover story for when the National Grid collapses in a few weeks after so many years of 'investment' by the government.

          They'll blame the bad weather for causing a demand spike that causes widespread failures. Yes, partly true, but not the truth, whatever that is nowadays.

          The important thing is the sheeple won't know why, and telling them is now a terrorist offence, so the government will be happy.

              Ensemble analysis (http://91.121.94.83/modeles/gens/gra...&ville=Londres

              The ensembles show temperatures aloft NOT FAR from average for the next five days or so, although it's likely to remain on the cold side at the surface, a marked change to a colder, wetter type of weather is indicated, which could be prolonged.

                There you have it. The icecaps have melted. The gulf stream has stopped. That's why it is cold, has been cold and will be cold. Warm=Cold.
                Bored.

                  If this is true, then the scenario the scientists concluded in a recentish documentary, that resembled the film The Day After Tomorrow coming to London, may be a possibility.

                    Don't know about that, but I'm already bracing myself for a Big Chilli I'm going to have tonight.
                    Will work inside IR35. Or for food.
