Still more weather forecasts

This, from Dr David Viner, a senior research scientist at the Climatic Research Centre at the University of East Anglia:

“Within a few years winter snowfall in Britain will become a very rare and exciting event. Children just aren’t going to know what snow is.”

March, 2000.

Ah, the joy of knowing the difference between climate and weather.
