And what would "bitterly cold" be? 0? +2?

If you want bitterly cold, try a winter's day in Nunavit or Resolute. Bitterly cold comes just before all atomic motion and outdoor cooking stops

Today it is quite mild ... only -3 .... but a little cloudy ... and it seems as if there is another winter storm warning out ....

A mixed weekend on the cards for many areas as the UK continues to lay under the powerful influence of Cyclone Helga (what images does that conjure up in your mind?).

During this morning, so the cold front with its wind and patchy rain clears the South-east corner of the country. Behind it, so the skies clear and temperatures drop a little, however a good deal of sunshine for most. Into the weekend and Saturday will see a good deal of general cloud around. A cold front will once again march South-east during the day but not reaching Central and Eastern areas until after dark.

Sunday is the pick of the pop for all regions as sunshine breaks through to bring most a late Winters day with only hazy cloud spilling in from the West later in the day to ruin the party.

The story then continues on Monday as a deep and powerful storm is expected to hit the UK. At Metcheck we have to put a fine balance on features like this. Had it been expected next Wednesday we probably wouldn't have mentioned it until Sunday or Monday, however for many of you, you'll visit the site today, go off and have a wonderful weekend and next thing will be to check us out on Monday. This is why we have to mention the storm today, so that if you can't make it into work on Monday you'll know why.

Basically, on Monday we have, probably, the most intense storm of this Winter heading into the UK. At present, there is general agreement within all the model of the position and track of the low. The difference is in the intensity, however we'll give you the best fit at the moment.

The storm will wind up to the West of Ireland, bottoming out at around 935mb (incredibly impressive for this time of year). The storm will then push West into Ireland, the Irish Sea and then into the Midlands with gales, severe gales and even storm force winds wrapped around its core. Heavy rain pushing in from the West during Monday morning will also spread quickly across all regions with the damaging winds following on behind later in the day.

In short, Monday is looking pretty damn nasty and if you have any outside plans then please do follow forecasts over the weekend on the latest for this system.

That aside, have a fantastic weekend from all at Metcheck and don't forget to have a quick look around the garden for anything which could get blown around, otherwise you'll be asking Jim at number 48 for it back on Tuesday.

This was taken from Metcheck.com today.

They have been warning us for a couple of days now, about the storm on monday.

If it hits with the force they are saying...... say good bye to your roof tiles
