Fuck off with these TERRIBLE SNOW forecasts then putting

"As much as 5mm and 10mm is anticipated in the North East, which will be the worst-hit and see the brunt of the downturn in conditions. "

Fuck

Off

Talking in mm like it's gonna be loads of fucking snow.

Clickbait cunts

Yeah, I thought I was misreading when it said 5-10mm. I was hoping for 2010 levels of snow with that headline and the way the article was building it up.

It's been getting this way for a while. It's getting to the point where we're having SNOWSTORM predictions every week, and when you have a read it'll be a little flurry overnight.

So I guess we just ignore weather warnings now because they'll most likely just be clickbait
