Blizzards and heavy snow predicted for Britain; Met office blames human activity

Here.

Excerpts:
The Met office issued severe weather warnings across the whole of the country for the next two days, predicting blizzards, and drifting or heavy snow for much of the country.

Disruption to travel and power networks is likely, with northern areas likely to see up to eight inches of snow, and southern areas up to one or two inches.
...
Met office scientists have also warned that Britain is set for at least 25 years of extreme weather thanks to global warming. Wayne Elliot of the Met Office said: “On a global scale we can expect stronger hurricanes and heavier rainfall, more violent storms, stronger winds and more flooding.

Because of human activity, we expect more active and energetic weather systems in the UK in the future.”
Met Office officials are rumored to be engaged in a desperate search for both virgins and volcanoes.
