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.

They also managed to get a short piece on the front page of the
Telegraph. I suppose that because most newspaper people know next to
nothing about the weather, they accept whatever guff they are fed in
press releases at face value.

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!
