Did I Hear Right?
Dis Thomas Shaffernacker (sp?) really say, during the weather
forecast before the one o'clock news today, that the sea would be rough in coastal areas? Does that mean that the sea will be calm inland, then? Anne |

Richard Equally Hamsey Green Pond at the height of the Gale force 6 (sic). Just a few ripples. Both Schaffernacker and La Tobyn frequently refer to the weather "outside" ( as we head through the afternoon). Yup, that's where it is. (Unless your roof leaks). Tudor Hughes, Warlingham, Surrey. |

Sometimes it just dribbles down for ages in a flat calm. At other times it is brief and heavy and accompanied by a strong gusty wind. This is a squall. He got it right. God knows there are enough sticks to beat the man with without inventing false ones. Tudor Hughes, Warlingham, Surrey. |
