Normal stuff - 17 flakes fall in the mountain of northern Scotland and the UK papers start panicking about the snow causing mass deaths and the elderly dying due to cold and remaining undiscovered for months

When I wake up and find our road covered in snow I will know it is a cold winter

That sounds about right.

And they need a £100M computer to forecast that there might be snow up north towards the end of the year?

Several lines down in the Article, after all the panic and hype, it says:

“Likely areas to be affected are the Scottish mountains as well as higher ground in northern England and northern Wales.

“Low areas are unlikely to see any.

“It’s quite normal for this time of year.”

In short, nothing to report.
