This Morning's Holly and Phil devastated after 'doom and gloom' weather warning

Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield had their heads in their hands after discovering this year's winter weather predictions.

The pair were joined by weather guru Dave, who has managed to accurately predicted the weather 90% of the time.

Dave uses the nature around him to make the predictions and upset Holly and Phil last time by predicting the UK would have a rubbish summer.

After they conceded that he had been right, Dave warned: "Bear that in mind that I've got the year right so far because what I'm about to tell you [isn't] that good."

"I know, I know," Phil cried out. "Here we go - what are the signs you're seeing about the winter?"

"Nature has put out a massive larder for all the animals," he replied. "That means... if you're out early in the morning and it's cold, eight o'clock in the evening it's cold. Yesterday was the last day of summer because today is the equinox, when the sun is directly over the equator. So today, we effectively start winter.

"Last night was a full moon, a harvest moon, and for the next few days it'll be dry, hot for the time of year. On the 29th - very important day. Where the wind blows that day will be the predominant wind direction until the 21st of March next year."

He went on to say that October is going to be "very wet" except for the time around half-term which will be "very pleasant".

However, he said that on the 29th, there will likely be snow north of Lincolnshire, which will be followed by "bitterly cold" weather in November.

Holly responded: "So you're saying this winter is going to be long and bitter and cold and wet?"

As Phil put his head in his hands, Dave replied: "Yes because - forget about global warming, but I've been banging on about it for several months that we're into the third winter of seven! It's going to be cold, hard winters."

Holly asked: "Is there going to be a white Christmas then?"

"No," he replied instantly, but added: "You must never say never!"
