Zijn er altijd vlug mee en het klinkt allemaal onheilspellend. Noordzee krijgt windstoten tot 50 mph, valt wel mee denk ik, ook Meteoservices gaat uit van rukwinden tot 80 km/u (Vlaamse kust !).
Here is an ADVANCED WARNING of Severe Gales and Heavy Snow affecting Scotland, Northern Ireland, North West England, North East England, The Midlands, Wales, Central Southern England and East Anglia AND Lincolnshire.
Issued by the Met Office at 10:40 on Friday, 6 February 2004.
For enquiries regarding this warning - please contact your regional Met Office.
Transmitted by the Met Office at 10:40 on Friday 06 February
The Met Office is forecasting a low to come down into the North Sea on Saturday, the strong winds on its western flank pulling cold air down across the country through the weekend. Showers will start to fall as snow over Scotland on Saturday morning, combining with gusts of 60 to 70 mph to give blizzard conditions at times, especially over higher ground. Over other areas, winds gusting to 40 or 50mph will blow showers well inland, these falling increasingly as snow over hills, and rain, sleet or snow at lower levels. On Sunday, snow showers will become more confined to eastern coastal districts, mostly dying away later.
