I do hope not. A two week spell at the beginning of August hotter than
38C?

It is amazing what attention seeking organisations will do to get
their predictions into the gutter press.

I don't see anything in their forecast that looks out of the ordinary
for an average British summer... three warm days followed by a
thundery breakdown... I could forecast that...

See the other thread for my comments - and a little bit of background
too of their incorrect summer forecasts over the past 2 years.

Just ignore them. They've managed an excellent publicity coup for
their company, on a poor summer forecasting track record, by playing
to the Mail's politics and dislike of....well anything that will sell
newspapers to their target audience really.

PWS said summer 2010 will break records as El Nino, which warms the
Pacific Ocean, combines with the effects of the Atlantic jet stream
weather pattern and the Azores high pressure region.
No link and no comment. Have you been taking Lawrence lessons?

I see another rich man is trying to go to heaven by giving himself a
charity:

'After the war I came out of the Royal Navy with a demob suit and
£80.
'I borrowed £100 and made the pact with God: make me a millionaire -
and you can have half of my money.'
He added: 'My belief in a day of reckoning keeps me on the straight
and narrow.'

So now we know what bankrupted all the grocers in North Wales: God.

I suppose it sells papers.
Not to me though.

Yes and I bet the DM was one of the first to attack the guy who
predicted the 2009 BBQ summer!

I just don't see it being a hot summer this year, quite the opposite.

As mentioned by me before, following a cold winter we more often than
not get a cooler than average summer and I see no reason for this
summer to be any different.

.... has anyone got a source for this statement:-

" The firm also accurately forecast a "big freeze" lasting into March
last winter. "

The forecast as presented is quite bold - this is how the 'Daily
Telegraph' has presented it ...

" It now predicts that average temperatures this June, July and August
will beat those of 1976, the hottest summer ever recorded with a
sweltering average of 17.8C (64F)"

If they're really saying that we're going to beat that (in the CET
record), then that would be something. Even more dramatic in my view
than saying that we might exceed the 2003 individual highest screen
temperature.

The official forecast is apparently released tomorrow, so watch that
space ...

The PWS forecast has a ring of authenticity about it; its the wording now
what does it sound like ....ah yes... Old Moores Alamanac. Just throw in a
famous person will die during the summer months and we're there.


JUNE: Starts with fine weather. Rain mid-month but temperatures warm to very
warm. Changeable later in month with fine conditions although some heavy
rain to finish. Someone famous may die this month

JULY: Starts unsettled with some rain, then dry through mid-month with warm
to very warm temperatures, lots of sunshine and light breeze. Humid towards
end of the month with thunderstorms and possible flash floods. Someone
famous may die this month if they haven'nt already died in June.

AUGUST: Thunderstorms quickly replaced by unbroken sunshine which may cause
record temperatures. Warm mid

Someone very famous is either taking their time to die or they died in June
and July.
