The link below is to temperature predictions for overnight on 1 April:

Gulp!

Now do we treat the prediction as a gimmick or do we prepare?

Doesn't the date say it all!!!!!!!

All I could get to was the weatheronline site, where the temperatures
looked "normal" so not quite sure what was on the tinyurl site in your
post.

From the dry & sunny, but ground frost overnight southern edge of the
Epynt.

Hi Roger

It was a link from Derek Brockway (the BBC Wales weatherman) to some
output from a weather modelling map for overnight on 31 March to 1
April which showed some significant low temperatures likely inland.

The model's moved on a bit but if you look towards the top you'll see
some tiny numbers in boxes. If you can still see 150 and 156 - they're
the two overnights from the Sat/Sun. 168 and 174 are the corresponding
Sun/Mon predictions.

Seems to have changed since I looked this morning. Now showing blue,
through central southern England (serves em right!)

Seems a very strange model and its predictions are funny.


Why the surprise, we have seen white Easters before now.
