No need for that type of speed

The BBC apologized on Oct. 10 after releasing a weather forecast predicting winds in London of 13,000 miles per hour, Yahoo! News reported. 13,000 MPH is the equivilant to Mach 20, or 20 times the speed of sound. Matt Taylor, a meteorologist for the network, soothed concerns: “Hurricane Milton hasn’t made it to us here in the U.K.!” He added that a data glitch had caused the extreme forecast, also warning of overnight temperatures of 759 degrees Fahrenheit in Nottingham. “Folk are working to solve the issue,” Taylor said.
