Time to get the winter boots on the jam jar!

Why is the Express so concerned about the weather? It is always forecasting doom!

[Canary42]

No doubt the global warming deniers will exploit this to support their views, they being too thick to understand the whole picture of Climate Change.

[EDDIE51]

The 'Gets Worse' is hardly known for the accuracy of it's weather warnings!

[EDDIE51]

Tilly, that's why it's nickname is the 'Gets Worse' .

[Tilly2]

Aw, did you see that photo of that poor dog? I am not going to click on that!

[ToraToraTora]

I don't think there are many global warming deniers canary. I think most accept the climate constantly changes, warming cooling, ice ages etc.

Full marks to the Daily Express for consistency!

must be true then chris!

[Mamyalynne]

Ready as I ever am for what the weather brings.

[DTCwordfan]

though not the most credible forecasters, they are probably the best and are at 200 degrees from what The Daily Sexpress are forecasting

I'm sure that we all remember the 'repeat of the heatwave of 1976' in 2011, don't we?
http://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/246648/Super-summer-to-last-months

That, of course, was followed by 'the hottest summer for almost a decade' in 2012:

Have they slipped your memory, perhaps? Then what about the 'three-month heatwave' of 2014?

[Old_Geezer]

I hope it is untrue. What with the excessive unjustified rise in gas prices and the concern that we don't generate enough energy in reserve for major increased demand, may be staying in bed with triple quilts for the next month or two. Must remember to put a couple of crates of biscuits and sodas in the bedroom then.

Snow bomb?

Why can't they call it what normal people call it...winter?

[Hopkirk]

If today's Express headline is weather, then tomorrow will be house prices, and then they will be back to Diana again.

//they being too thick to understand the whole picture of Climate Change.//

It used to be called weather. Now if you don't prostrate yourself for the doom sayers (wonder what the next fad is?) you are in denial. Rain, Sun, Wind, even a lot of one or the other, surely not. Sunspots (well it nearly rhymes with what I mean)

[EDDIE51]

The Express headlines alternate between 'doom and gloom' weather warnings and announcing the latest wonder drug.
Look out for the ''Wonder Drug will make us live forever'' headline that should be due next week.

[Tilly2]

Will anyone on here confess
to buying the Express?
My guess...
No.

[Togo]

Steady EDDIE, the other half of the cough and spit twins will soon be on.

[EDDIE51]

Tilly I get the only real newspaper 'The Times' the rest are just scandal sheets.
It's hard to know which is worse the 'Gets Worse' or the 'Daily Wail.'

[jno]

poetically put, Tilly.

In fairness, the barbecue summer prediction came from the Met Office, it wasn't wholly invented by the Express and its minions. But the Express has concentrated for years now on Diana, Maddy McCann and the weather (with some excursions into house prices).

Among the foremost "sceptics" about man-made climate change is Piers Corbyn, the well known brother. But Accuweather tells me the temperature will dip a bit in the next couple of weeks - from 9-10 to 6-8, and cold at night - before warming up again, and that sounds more plausible than the Express trying to make my flesh creep.
