Hi all,

A gloomy weather forecast for Summer 2008 ... news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/7328843.stm

All we can hope for is that the clouds clear at nightfall :?

Hi John,

Because of my multi-yr analemma project, the weather is something I have been following on almost a daily basis during the past nine years. I have noted that our weather has taken a turn for the worse during winters where we have gone from being at the beach in December to being at home with the furnace on and lots of clouds outside.

Unfortunately this forecast for the UK 2008 summer is not too surprising.

That's just so that they don't get as lambasted as they did after last summer, when this time last year "they" said we were in for a record breaking hot summer with global warming/climate change and all that!
