Looked up to see a green Volvo bearing down on me. Thankfully it stopped. A guy came to help and I could see his eyes focussing on my head where a big lump had already formed.

The problem with weather forecasts is that a lot of the time it's a case of the models predicting there's a 70% chance of a certain type of weather in a region, but people don't want to hear that. They want to be told "it will rain" or "it will be sunny" etc, and the forecasters can only really say what's most likely to happen. I've seen snowfall where in one town football matches have been called off, but just a couple of miles away it's been fine - yet the people without snow were probably saying the forecasters got it wrong.
