South or Southwest
Mon, 26 Oct 2009 12:10:52 -0700 (PDT)
I know I shouldn't watch it but the BBC breakfast weather presenter
seems to struggle with her geography as much as meteorology. She
repeatedly stated that mild air was moving up from the SW all the way

Mon, 26 Oct 2009 08:58:10 -0700 (PDT)
When the forecast goes wrong as badly as it has today, Monday 26th
October, I realise just how good they are normally. Today having been
promised sun, I looked forward to some enjoyable gardening. Sure it
didn?t rain, but it was unremittingly cloudy and judging by the light
levels, that cloud wasn?t thin. It wa ...
