Absolutely nothing to do with the weather right now, but I just came across this and thought some might enjoy this. My kind of forecast.
I genuinely remember this forecast, I was 17 at the time, probably not long back from the pub when it aired.
A sudden hail storm had me rushing out to get the washing in, and my cat running indoors looking bedraggled.
I was keeping an eye on the radar in case I needed to get the washing in, it just bubbled up out of nowhere.
Both yesterday and today, I've felt warm enough to walk to the shops without a coat or jacket. I don't recall having done this so early in the year before.

I notice this often too, I don't know for sure, but I've always assumed this is a radar thing, not the weather.
Interference where different Doppler radars overlap.
Well obviously I now am singing Come on Irene too-ra-loo-ra.. but it's my birthday and I've had wine, whilst wishing for snow.
Knee deep in snow I am told when I was born in 1979.
