Weather Obsession

I swear I'm becoming obsessed with the weather... for good reason though! I'm flying back home on Monday to N.I. for Christmas to be with my family. We've recently been forecast more snow. Now, I know for some of you American readers, the snow is not that big of a deal where you are. Especially not the meagre amount that we get here in the UK. However, the sad thing is that it only takes a few inches and the entire place shuts down. We just can't cope.

I found out an interesting fact yesterday too from a lecturer. Bristol airport was apparently built where it is in order to experience the most adverse conditions. If it's going to be foggy, it will be foggy at Bristol airport. If snow is forecast, you can guarantee that Bristol will bare the brunt of it. Why I hear you ask? For the flippin' RAF, so that they could practice in such conditions! Now what moron decides to keep it as an airport for the general public?

Anyhoo, whether it's true or not it doesn't matter. Back to my original point. Weather forecasts. I just wish they could all agree on the same thing. I've got 5 different options for checking the weather on my phone alone. Every morning and night this week I've been checking the short and long range forecasts. And whilst the BBC tells me 'no snow. but some sun' yahoo is telling me 'SNOWWWW!!!!' It's freaking me out slightly.

I'll keep you posted. Right now, BBC is saying sun on Sunday and Monday. Yahoo is telling me snow sunday and sleet on monday. That's the most they've agreed all week. Stay like that please. The last thing I want is to be sat on Christmas all by myself with the only thing to do being my dissertation :(  (but snow, feel free to come back when I'm home safe and sound!)
