It always amazes me how it gets this right, but it seems to be more accurate than I would have expected. <\/p>\n<p>The Met Office has released a severe weather warning:<br clear=\"all\" \/><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>This is the first warning of disruption due to Heavy Snow. The Met Office is expecting a period of heavy snow to develop across Southwest England and much of Wales during Wednesday night and this is expected to extend across the Midlands, London, the Southeast of England and East Anglia during Thursday morning. There is also a risk that the snow will extend into parts of northern England for a time before dying away from all areas during Thursday afternoon. Accumulations of 2-5cm are expected quite widely inland, with 10-15cm possible for parts of the Midlands and Wales. Rain is more likely close to southern coasts where less cold air is expected. The period of snow could cause disruption to travel networks, especially across high level routes and the fact that timing of this event will coincide with the morning rush-hour. This warning will be updated by 1100 tomorrow, Wednesday 7th February 2007.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Time to dig my snowboard out from the back of the shed, buried under tonnes of other stuff!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Things are getting a little colder, -4.8\u00baC here last night and it looks as though there is some significant snow on the way overnight tonight and into tomorrow morning.
