Still Waters Posted February 1, 2018 #1 Share Posted February 1, 2018 It might be "chucking it down" in Leeds and Newcastle, but it is "bucketing" in the Black Country. That is according to research for the Met Office, as it considers introducing regional terms to weather forecasts. A survey of 2,000 people in January found a variety of slang words were used to describe UK weather. The Met Office said regions tended to interpret the same information differently and using regional slang could help people's understanding. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-42901959 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
