I think people themselves just need to cop on and read the forecast charts properly and not just go what is written down in a summary forecast.
1. It did snow and is still snowing in parts.
2. The ground temperatures were too warm for a start beforehand for any or much snow to stick in parts where it fell.
3. Some people who should know better when they hear snow can go a little too far ahead of themselves.
4. I agree with you on them giving warnings but I think that is some E.U wide thing now with colour warnings for insurance etc.
5. I'd actually rather be prepared for the thing beforehand and it didn't happen than not be prepared and it did happen.
6. There's flooding in England this evening and the Met Office are getting stick for not warning them about flooding.
7. What's seven? Look at the forecasts yourself and you'll have a clue and not be taking someone else's word for it.

Oh just asked could we leave the window open to hear the snow falling !
Haha I remember my father and mother on the coldest of snowy nights,my Da would insist on the kitchen window being wide open 'for the air' and my Ma would be so curled up near the aga as to be almost inside it
I sometimes wonder how I was born at all

Yep and we had the same here in Ireland. Heavy snow/blizzards here in Dublin. People got caught out on that Friday afternoon with no way to make their way home from work. By 4pm most roads around Dublin were treacherous and public transport came to a halt.Was it Michael Fish on the BBC in 1987 who was giving the forecast and said that a woman had rung them to say that there was a big storm on the way.
He reassured everyone that this was nonsense, that night one of the biggest storms for decades arrived devastating the south of England.

I think you're referring to 1982, 1987 was a storm, no snow, south of england was devastated, I remember BBC talking about an area called Sevenoaks and they were going to have to call it Oneoak after that storm.
We were on a sun holiday that week and the storm crossed the island before it got to England,0 -

Rangler is right, I was in school for the 1982 snow, and I'll always remember the 1987 storm, as I was on the ferry coming home from Wales for it!
Cold with a sprinkle of snow here today.If the seat's wet, sit on yer hat, a cool head is better than a wet ar5e.
