Exactly right, everybody panics over long-range weather forecasts but if they're ever anywhere near right, it's a complete coincidence ;D

I can forecast the weather for the next five years. Summers will be a hot three weeks in June and winters will be fecking freezing from November to January.

At least that resembles some sort of order, the way it used to be - for a while we were getting warm rain in summer and cold rain in winter. A few years back, I remember when it rained every day for 100 days in a row...

...or was that just in Wales? :P

Met Office says nothing about snow for the next 30 days but i wouldnt be surprised to see some around November time. Repeat of last year maybe?
