UK weather forecast: Britain braces for ‘SEVERE snow’ - FREAK SOLAR STORM warning
UK Express ^ | Oct 16, 2018 | Nathan Rao

Freak changes in the composition of space around the sun are about to drive a chain of meteorological events locking the UK into a savage early Arctic freeze, it has been claimed.

The so-called solar corona has become dotted with holes on its Earth-facing side threatening serious knock-on effects to the flow of the jet stream and the weather this winter.

Temperatures are expected to nosedive towards the end of October bringing ‘substantial snowfall’ across Scotland, northern and central England.

It could herald the start of a four-month Polar assault with snow and sub-zero temperatures threatening to grip the nation until February.

Britain could be facing a worse freeze than that wrought by the Beast from the East which brought swathes of the country to a shivering standstill earlier this year.

Despite forecasts for milder conditions over the next few days forecasters are sounding alarm bells for the mercury to plummet within weeks.

WeatherAction’s Piers Corbyn said: “We are expecting some quite severe snowfall before the end of this month and it will not just be confined to the far north, this could reach parts of the Midlands or even further south.

“We are also forecasting some very low temperatures, we could see the record for October broken this year.” Changes in the structure of the ‘plasma layer’ around the sun will trigger wild deviations in the flow of the jet stream, he warned. This will encourage freezing cold air over the North Pole to spill southwards and edge into northern Europe – a so-called displaced Polar Vortex ...

More global warming.
It must be hard for them to admit that it is the sun which affects the Earth’s climate, not straws and farts.

And if it snows 2 feet every day until next August the Global Warming advocates will still claim it was the warmest winter in 10-quadrillion years

To explain this as simply as possible as maybe its a bit alien to my friends in America....

UK newspapers have a very very bad habit of reporting complete nonsense about the weather here - you really have to see it to believe it.

And the very very worst culprit of that is and has always been the Daily Express (actually a paper I like because it is very right wing).

I’m not saying they’re wrong - but normally they grossly over exaggerate in terms of weather predictions.

“Freak changes in the composition of space around the sun are about to drive a chain of meteorological events”

This reminds me of something I saw in the DirecTV program guide’s description for an episode of Space’s Deepest Secrets or something similar where they look into why a part Jupiter is “hotter than it should be”.

It does seem a bit over the top, but there is science behind this story. Wish I would have bought Natural Gas futures at $50 a few weeks ago - now they’re at $90 (UGAZ)

LOL!

The term “Winter” has been banned, don’t you know (not compatible with “Globull Warming”).

This will be simply a “cold snap”.

From 18 years ago:

“According to Dr David Viner, a senior research scientist at the climatic research unit (CRU) of the University of East Anglia,within a few years winter snowfall will become “a very rare and exciting event”.

“Children just aren’t going to know what snow is,” he said.”

Kudos to these guys for putting it on the line. If they’re right, they’ll look like geniuses.

We won’t have long to wait to see if they’re heroes or goats.

If climate is made up of consistent weather events and we can’t control the weather...?

This sounds like the plot from “The day after Tomorrow”.
