COLDEST WINTER IN 100 YEARS ON WAY

[super jumbe]

BRITAIN will grind to a halt within weeks as the most savage freeze for a century begins.

Temperatures will fall as low as minus 20C in rural areas, forecasters warned last night, while heavy snow and ?potentially dangerous? blizzards will close roads and cripple rail networks.

James Madden, forecaster for Exacta Weather, said: ?We are looking at some of the coldest and snowiest conditions in at least 100 years.

This is most likely to occur in the December to January period with the potential for widespread major snowfall across the country.

?Parts of the North, Scotland and eastern England are likely to experience a run of well below average temperatures, which will include some potentially dangerous blizzard conditions at times.?

He warned the South faces a bout of ?unusually heavy snowfall? in December.
Leon Brown, meteorologist for The Weather Channel, said snow could arrive within days

James Madden got it wrong last winter tho

At least we know it's not global warming, since it's only the coldest in 100 years then it must have been colder 101 years ago *shrug*

In 100years my dad use to tell me 60 years ago you could not open house back door full of snow.

True, around my part of the country even the gritters and snow ploughs stay at home as well....

That happens when you live in an igloo in Greenland.

I think I have heard this story with different words for the last ten years or so, and it has failed to materialise every time
