Weather warning

There will be a severe depression. Depending on the pressure, wind direction and speed this depression will alter its course.

It will be both profoundly deep and long lasting but could appear fast moving and seemingly inconsequential at times. Generally there will be thick fog.

Meteorologists talk in knowledgeable terms about highs and lows, peaks and troughs but unfortunately are unable to predict life threatening storms, tremors or earthquakes. Therefore, everyone can expect a turbulent time.

Potentially, there is the risk of widespread flooding, possibly drowning, due to heavy rain. Panic is a distinct possibility.

Some days there will be scattered light showers, with the odd mist here and there on the high ground. Other days it will be impossible to tell whether it is hot or cold.

Although the sun will penetrate the cloud cover in some areas occasionally, there will also be short periods of very high pressure giving rise to a brightness that will make the world look totally different.

However, these bursts will be rare and short lived and you can expect to be completely baffled by their sudden appearance.

The outlook is, apparently, promising but predictably unpredictable.
