Thistle is in seed, the fireweed due shortly and most of the Mountain
Ash is yellowing and full of berries.

You can reckon on a couple of weeks of summery weather when the fireweed
is in seed. That's it then. A pause full of mist and suddenly you are
looking at winter.

Autumn is a pause full of mist?

I like that

No, the general trend in the region of the UK where I noticed the
tendency.

Roughly akin to seeing more tractors full of the harvest, rushing to
break even despite the huge profits Tescos make each quarter being
noticed in London, only not.

You really need to keep in touch with the word "context" if you intend
to hunt for mistakes made by possibly the greatest thaumaturge in the
countries alive atm.

Is he really worth arguing with, especially in public? As a result you
expose his crap to those of us who have long-since kill-filed him.

Who you have in your killfile is your business.
If others happen to quote their posts and you read it, then unfortunately
that's just tough

As for McNeil, well I've never been able to work him out.
Is he really as confused as he makes out, or is he just trolling?

I beg pardon.

I still haven't got over being reinstated from your killfile. In my
previous posts your responses seemed to get off on a misaprehension of
what I was doing or saying.

The fact is that the planet will hit a bunch of spells that are what I
say they are in my forecasts. I have usually stated there will be
some such series a long time before thye occur.

If I am a little obtuse in my definitions then that is because I am not
certain -by any means, of locations.

Still; some sort of warning is better than none.

I might be the best thaumaturge in the UK but I never claimed to be a
good one.

Had I used the term "long lasting Omega" and placed it in the North
Atlantic perhaps you would have been a little more attentive?

But I don't know anything about Omegas -long lasting or otherwise, in
the Atlantic or anywhere else.

It stands to reason that after the willowbay has gone to seed with this
current weather pattern, there will be serious misty spells with their
accompanying road traffic accidents.

When such spells occur they tend to give a forewarning of themselves in
that there will usually be a little misty spell at first, then a
brighter spell -that to the unwashed seems to indicate better weather
but to those more attuned to their surroundings will fortell a serious
and fairly long lasting misty spell.

(Here be crashes.)

Or it may just pour with rain.

Or not, as the case may be.

OK then....

You've been out a while. I can't even remember exacly what you
went in there for, I think you swore at me!

Anyhow, if previously I have had 'misaprehensions' it's because
I genuinely didn't know what you were getting at, rather than a
deliberate attempt to wind you up.

Fair enough.

True

I'm not sure what you mean here.

And the accompanying debate about the clocks going back leading
to darker evenings and is this causing more accidents than having
darker morings etc etc etc....

Well exactly.
At least you are honest about the uncertainties about long term forecasting.
Unlike certain other outfits I could mention.....

You probably deserved worse for being stupid enough to merit my
displeasure. Unfortunately this is usenet so you got away with it.
Let's hope you have learned a lesson.

I don't take kindly to humans who abuse my good nature. I can get
rather abrasive about it.

Mr Nice Guy.
