  • Heads Up

    Tomorrow (Wednesday) at 9pm, BBC 4 is showing a one hour documentary
    about the winter of 1962-3. If it's the one I think it is, then it's
    been shown several times before, but it's well worth seeing again. About
    the first 45 minutes consists of an episode of the "Tonight" current
    affairs programme about the winter that was made at the time, which is
    far superior in its accuracy and freedom from hype to pretty much any documentary about notable weather that's been made in recent decades.

    Via the relatively "new" jetstream , they blamed it on the Haiwains ISTR locking the UK into an omega block.
