There was a similar forecast a couple of weeks back when I was passing through Speyside. All of the locals were very excited about it.

I’ll file this forecast with the ‘BBQ summer’ one

they know they can’t be accurate so it makes you wonder why they try

Its not uncommon to get snow in October

Indeed, and it is the daily fail….I do just like Jo’s response….!

Metcheck website did a similar publicity stunt a few years ago (2003ish), they predicted snow hell and freezing damnation in November, all the main press and TV reported it and their source, mission accomplished for Metcheck, turned out to be absolute tosh in the end. Personally, I just look at 5 day forecasts and take anything more long range with a big pinch of salt.
Most of the respectable Meteo sources work on historic models, which are still just historic trends. There’s no certainty.

well im just about to buy my new touring ski set up.
And a set of snowshoes.
Bring it on 🙂

FFS! That article is the meteorological equivalent of bloody horoscopes!

Gotta love those “huge swirly low pressure systems” 🙂

Just off to sharpen my crampons… you never know

Remember Brant (the king of viral marketing) is now back at On One. And On One are about to go into the Fatbike market. Expect more snow forecasts…
