Cheryl continues to be odd, now now, miaow, enough's enough, truce Cole-girl?
Apart from the odd spat or two at PWS Towers, the great debate at present is the banter on the web about winter 2010/11, and how it will turn out. 'Good question' I said to Cheryl, 'Come on then clever!' she said to me. 'My guess is that winter will still fall between December and early March' I replied.
Seriously....
As I see it, not PWS, (we'll wait for Mr P to roll out one of his masterpieces at a later date), this winter looks on a par with last year, perhaps not as bad. This is my own research done in my sparetime, (not on company time I promise Mr P), perish the thought!
However, I won't be subscribing to the crackpots and their 'frozen stiff for three months under a ton of snow' nonsense, that's highly unlikely, and in the current mix of affairs, the replication of last year's winter doesn't add up either, not from where I'm sitting. A generalised cold theme yes, but similar snowfall amounts, mmm, I don't think so. I will be buying boots for winter, (the footware, not the chain of chemists), but let me tell you it's a fashion thing, just to keep my feet warm. Nothing to do with red berries on trees, or cows pointing one way in a field, although, yes, go on then, add 'Lisa buying boots' as weather folklore for a harsh winter.
The projections PWS have at present take us up to the end of February 2011, and they make for interesting reading. If released now, it would be strongly at odds with current thinking, but not totally at odds with the thinking of the past 10 years, when you take a chunk of past data, rather than a thin slice of the present stats to hand.
We'll see, but calling it now would be a bit daft, I mean, who'd do that?
Old misery won't let me have a 'Twitter' account, ain't he mean? Bet Cheryl gets one!
Catch you again, remember our Mr Powell is on twitter - 'JPWeatherGuru'
