So does this affect WHOLE of UK or just Scotland? really. not. mood. to. read. that.
If he's right it looks like all of the UK will have some bad weather at some point during the week.

met have issued yellow warning so far on the 13th

13th it is then...
The only problem I have with winter is the cold. Love the snow/wind/storms but hate the cold.
I am a spastic. Yes.
Reading the OP I think the big storm is the 16th with possible record breaking low pressure systems.

I'm a member of a weather enthausiast website and these models do look pretty bad...
However these predictions are based on projected forecast models, so I would note some caution especially for the 16th (as its still 5 days away). Things can and do change, therefore a area of Low pressure could track further north etc. I would keep an eye on the Met Office warnings and national news.
If this does pull off then there will be significant damage and disruption for most of the UK. Twice in one week.

Oh I was hoping it was BS to be honest, Oh well best be ready for it then and get me garden tidied up.

I'm hope it's a freak blizzard covering the UK in 3 metres of snow.

Alright 50$
If I make a plan to do something important next week that would make it happen obviously.
EDIT: Actually....
"Details for this storm at present are harder to predict but what i will say is that if this storm pulls off, and it looks like it will, this will be a storm that will be remembered for many years. This storm, if it verifies, will be the equivelant to a Category 3 Hurricane. This storm will most likely track through the English Channel and will affect not only most of the UK, but also Holland and the other low countries in Europe. the winds associated with this storm could be in excess of 130mph. This is sustained gusts over a 1 minute period. This will pull down trees, rip off roofs, windows in high rise flats blown in, fences taken down, power cuts lasting up to a week, most caravans destroyed if in the dirct wind. To give you an idea, Hurricane Ivan was a category 3 Hurricane. "
I'm calling shenanigans straight up.
