I am pleased to see that most people are trying to analyse what the reasons
are for an innaccurate forecast rather than either denying that it was poor
or slagging off the M.O. I'm sure it was the best possible forecast with the
available data - it just went wrong. (Although the dead calm in the S.E at
the moment does seem a tad cruel!)
At least it might prevent more posts of "It will never snow again" and
"Winter is over" type posts based on T+240 models.
