Its Chuckng Down

[nailit]

here in Stoke.
Are we going to get the same winter weather that they've had in the U.S?

[jno]

do you get the Lake District Effect in Stoke at all, nailit?

[Slapshot]

Lakes are not big enough to cause the same effects

[Tilly2]

......only from Knypersley Lake, jno.

[237SJ]

No but there might be some wind on the way judging by the battering we got this morning out in the Atlantic.

[stuey]

To give you an idea how big the "Great" Lakes are; Lake Ontario is 18,980 square km, while Yorkshire is 11,903 square km.

[Tilly2]

Hasn't Yorkshire been sliced up?

[Psybbo]

Ah, we've only got the Atlantic to worry about, rain has passed now.

[Psybbo]

OK, Slappy, don't shout, I know it has a moderating effect x

[stuey]

The area of Lake Superior if 82,103 square km, only about 2000 square km smaller than Ireland, North and South.

Haha!
I could tell a few stories about Knypo Tilly.

How about the lake in Trentham Gardens, or is it still there?:)
