Amateur Weatherman Prediction

Heatwave on the way?

MEV's resident amateur weatherman has made this year's weather predictions.

"April will be full of showers, to be followed by flowers," he said predictably.  "I also predict that the weather will get a little warmer, before getting cold again."

Looking sagely into his seaweed collection, Mr Burt Swaddletooth explained that he has been making ludicrous weather predictions for decades, none of which has ever come true.


"I used to rely on looking out of the window," he said. "Before deciding on whether to wear a sun hat, or take my umbrella. But now I have decades of data on which to base my ludicrous predictions."

MEV's real weather forecaster, Mr Michael Fish countered Swaddletooth's predictions. "Do you really believe that the Met Office would invest zillions of pounds on computers if it were as simple as looking out of the window, and guessing what the weather was going to be like?  Well yes we would actually, but that's another matter."
